Groaning into the sensations of having every part of her filled by me, she opens her mouth to pant, but I close mine on top of it, forbidding her from taking in a breath. Bailey instantly lets out a soft gasp, and I suck it all in. I want to consume all of her.

I pick up my pacing, moving in and out. “God, Bailey. I can’t wait to fuck you all over the house. On every surface”—I thrust—“on every piece of furniture.”

“Mason,” she hums with satisfaction.

I reel further into her. “—in every room and even the fucking pool.” Harder and deeper I go until we both reach our peak.

I feel the weight of her shaky body release next to me. Panting heavily, I dip my face down to lightly kiss the top of her nose, then quickly rise and head to the bathroom to clean myself up.

When I’m finished, I climb back under the covers and notice that she’s now facing me. With one hand, I pull the comforter, blanketing us both under the warmth. We’re facing each other lying side by side, but I need her closer, so I hook my arm in the middle of her legs, pulling her into me so that one of her legs slides between both of mine. We’re wrapped in each other.

“That was a nice surprise. Good thing you weren’t a robber.”

“I’d be a very lucky robber then.” I smile.

She laughs.

“Why did you come here?” I ask.

She tucks herself into the space under my arm. “I missed you.” Her muscles relax. “I remembered that you still had this place for another week. I couldn’t sleep, and Luca is with my parents, so I came here. As soon as I walked in and noticed that it still smelled like you, I knew I couldn’t leave.” Bailey’s hooded eyes look up directly at me.

I run my knuckles along the soft skin of her cheek and let mine scan the features of her beautiful face. As she stares up at me with her hazel, almond-shaped eyes, she looks like she wants me to fuck her again.

I may need a couple more minutes at least.

“It was a surprise seeing you asleep on the floor in my empty condo. A surprise that I am so grateful for,” I admit.

If I had decided to head straight home and not stop by, I would never have known. Maybe she never would have called, or I? Like we both picked each other at the exact same time.

Fate. That’s what the hell this is.

“Why didyoucome here?” She sits up, turning to face me.

I bring my arms up, resting the back of my head on top of my folded hands. “I came here because I wanted to be close to you.”

She smiles, tucking a loose hair behind her ear. “Let’s go to my place and sleep in a real bed.”

“I would love to get into your bed.”

We get dressed, gather all the blankets, and head back to her condo.

While she gets snuggled into her bed, I hop in the shower. Letting the hot water run over my body, I’m feeling grateful at this moment and filled with pure relief. Bailey needs to be with me.

I open my eyes after getting done rinsing my hair to find her standing in the shower in front of me. My heart jumps, and my dick swells.

“You scared me.” I laugh, tugging her into me. Wrapping her arms around my waist, she rubs the tips of her fingers along my lower back. Her smooth, wet body is flush with mine and in no time, I have her pressed against the slick tiled wall in the shower, and we fuck once again.

“I’m going to be sore again tomorrow,” she says, wiping the excess water from her eyes.

Biting my lip with a sense of pride, I respond, “I’m still surprised you haven’t gotten used to me yet.”

“I hope I never get used to you.”

Smiling to myself, I bend down to pick up the shampoo from the floor. I squeeze a small amount into my palm, then thread my fingers through her hair. “You can’t sleep with anyone else. I want you for myself,” I tell her.

The steam fills the room, creating an apron of foggy haze around us. Bailey turns around and looks up at me, blinking a few times from the water dripping down her face. “I never wanted to be with anyone else. Have you?”

“No, it’s always been you, B. Since that first night, I knew I wouldn’t be with anyone else.” I smile. “Hell, if I’m being honest, it’s been you since college.”
