Then, when I was setting up for my next shot, again she came over next to me. I hesitated to see what she would do and for a split second, it seemed like she debated it too. But then her arm reached out and snaked around my neck while she hoisted her body up to wrap around my front. This time, she locked her ankles around my back, and those fucking tits were flush up against my chest. On instinct, my arms went under her ass to brace her up. When I found her eyes, I was undone.
Game over.
My dick jumped to attention immediately.
“You win,” I said, letting the ball go in the water and float away. The moment left me equal parts stunned and excited for what I thought was going to happen next.
“Not fair and square.”
“Nothing about what you’re doing right now is fair and square,” I replied with a half grin. Her sitting inches from my face looking hot as fuck, with clothes sticking to every curve of her body, was what was not fair.
“I want to kiss you, Donovan.” Audra spoke. I let the silence stretch between us to see what she would do. “I want to kiss you, but I know I shouldn’t.”
Time stood still. Everything around me fell away. It felt like whatever I said next would define everything between us.
“I want to kiss you, too. But I don’t want to scare you away or make things awkward. I’m not sure why you think you shouldn’t, but, fuck, Audra, I want to kiss you so remarkably badly right now.”
“Just a kiss,” she whispered as she leaned in. She was so close that I felt the sharp intake of her breath and saw her eyes flutter in anticipation. She wanted this as much as I did.
“Nothing but a kiss,” I agreed in the moment, knowing akiss would never be enough with her, but I had to start somewhere. Might as well be her lips.
She leaned forward and gently grazed my lips, as if she was torn between taking what she wanted and betraying whatever notion she had in her head. As much as I wanted to crash into her, I didn’t push. If she wanted this, she would have to be the one to cross the threshold. Her resolve took hold, and she came back in to confidently put her lips back on mine, but I still held back. That wasn’t what she wanted, so she grabbed the back of my head and tilted her head to deepen the connection. When I felt her tongue ask for entrance, I stopped hesitating.
They say lightning doesn’t strike twice, but this kiss was just as electric as the first. Without hesitation or embarrassment, she moaned in affirmation when I kissed her like she wanted me to. It was everything. Removing one of my hands from her ass, I cupped her face as I pulled away. “You kiss me like you were fucking made for me, Audra. Fuck.”
“Just a little longer, please don’t stop,” she breathlessly replied, so I didn’t. Without breaking our lips apart, I walked us over to the side of the pool where we were mostly submerged, and I could use my body weight to push her up against the edge. I knew she could feel me, how hard I was for this, but it didn’t freak her out like last time. I’d take that win. Hell, she even rubbed herself on the ridge on my shorts. We made out like teenagers for a while, and the only thing that stopped us was the thunderstorm that we didn’t realize had rolled in. The kaboom startled both of us, and in one swoop, I lifted her out of the water and then jumped out myself.
Without words, I grabbed her hand again and led her under the awning where I had towels waiting for us. Rather than just giving it to her, I dried her and then wrapped the towel around her shoulder before doing my own. I treadedcarefully because given how she freaked out after the last kiss, I was a bit nervous the same thing was going to happen again.
But those fears melted away when she smiled at me and said, “Remember, I won.”
A smile of relief graced my lips when I questioned, “But did you? I’m pretty sure I’m the winner in this scenario.” Or maybe I wasn’t. My dick was so hard I’m surprised it wasn’t sticking out the bottom of my suit.In it for the long game, I reminded myself.
This time, she reached out to grab my hand as she laughed and led us inside. It was 2 a.m., and I had to work the next day, but I would stay up all night to extend my time with her.
“Can I get you a snack?” I asked.
“Maybe just something little,” she responded.
Opening the fridge wide enough for her to see, she chose the yogurt.
“Late-night yogurt coming up.” I grabbed one too and got us spoons as she sat at the island. I had the profound feeling that it looked like she belonged there. We chatted about nothing important, as I think both of us were a little more tired than we let on. She got real quiet, and I thought it was because she was regretting the pool.
“You ok?” I couldn’t stand not knowing what was going through her brain.
“Yes. No. I don’t know. I want to ask you something, but I want you to take it at face value, ok?” she asked sheepishly.
“Weird thing to say, but ok,” I replied.
“I … I was … I don’t want to sleep by myself. Will you sleep in bed with me? This is not an innuendo for going beyond what happened in the pool. I just don’t want to be alone.”
I mean, at least she was being upfront about it?
“Just a sleep,” I said to her as I squeezed her thigh. Icouldn’t keep my damn hands off the woman. Knowingly getting into bed after kissing like we did earlier was a recipe for disaster, no doubt, but I couldn’t say no. I’m pretty sure that Audra King could ask me for anything in the world, and I’d figure out a way to make it happen.
“Just a sleep,” she repeated with her sparkly eye smile. “And maybe just a kiss.”
