“I’m not hovering. I can tell you’re upset about Grandma Dorothy. I am, too, but she needs to be somewhere with constant care.”

I hated that I wasn’t going to be at home to be there when Grandma was transferred to elder care. I hated that my father had rubbed it in my face the last time I called to check in on the forms I needed. “I know that.”

She crossed the room and stopped me from putting on my hoodie as I prepared for a run. “You should go see her this weekend.”

“I can’t I have to work. You know that.” My new job didn’t have substitutes and I was under a probationary period. Calling into work wouldn’t endear me to my new boss who had been hesitant to hire me considering I’d been let go from the last place.

She frowned. “I was so excited for that new job, but it’s keeping you busy.”

“Gotta pay rent somehow.” I didn’t say it, but I also needed the money to save up to move…if and when I chose a school for next year. I was already cutting it way too close for comfort, but I needed those papers from my father, who hadn’t returned my messages about the forms I needed.

“Do you want me to go with you?” she asked.

“Please. You hate running.”

She laughed and it lightened my worries, if only a little. “That’s true.”

I kissed her lightly on the lips. “Don’t worry about me, sweetheart. I’ll be fine. Besides, don’t you have a final to be studying for?”

She pouted. “It’s not fair you already finished yours.”

Deepening the kiss helped to distract us both. “Why don’t you finish up studying while I’m gone and then we’ll have something to eat. I’ll cook this time,” I added before she could offer. “You’ve catered to me more than enough.”

Tossing her hair over her shoulder, she smirked at me. “Is that what you think?” she asked.

I noted the look in her eyes and carefully put distance between us. “Oh, no you don’t. You’re not going to distract me when you have to study. You know we won’t get anything done if we get back in bed.”

It was the truth. Now that we’d crossed that line, we couldn’t seem to get enough of each other. I’d thought the need for her would have cooled eventually, but if anything it seemed to burn hotter each time I had her.

She gave me that look that meant she wanted me, now. It was a look she knew I couldn’t resist. “Charlie,” I groaned. “We can’t do this now.”

“Hush,” she said and covered my lips with her fingers. “Let me do this for you.”

“You don’t have todoanything for me.”

“I want to.”

She dropped her hand and then fell to her knees in front of me. There wasn’t time for me to prepare because a second later, she pulled down my cotton running shorts and had me in her mouth.

“Jesus fucking Christ,” I said as the wet heat of her mouth enveloped me. She took me deep, stroking my dick with her tongue as she sucked me.

I scooped up her hair with both hands and tried to slow her down, but she wasn’t having any of it. She gripped the base of my dick and stroked with each slide of her mouth. My legs shook and I gave serious consideration to collapsing back on the bed. She devastated me.

I wish I could say I lasted a long time. I wish I could say it didn’t completely wreck me when she glanced up at me, but I couldn’t. It only took a few minutes for me to reach the point where I tried to pull her away. We’d never really talked about things likeswallowingfor fuck’s sake, but she wouldn’t have any of it. She sucked me back even farther and stroked harder with the tight fist of her hand.

“Charlie,” I groaned. “You gotta stop.”

But she didn’t.

I hunched over as the orgasm hit and I came into the sweet recesses of her mouth. She didn’t stop for a second. Watching her throat work as she swallowed it down had to be one of, if notthe, hottest moment of my life.

She rocked back on her heels after licking me clean and I pulled my shorts back up. It had only been a few minutes, but I felt like I’d run a marathon.

“Now you can go,” she said with a laugh as she got to her feet with a wicked smile.

I stood there for a minute hoping my legs would hold me up. “I’m not sure I can.”

Charlie began to back away. “You go for that run. I’m going to study. You definitely owe me dinner when you get back.”
