When I make it to the vineyard where the wedding is taking place, I worry I won’t be able to find Clara until after the ceremony. I toss my keys to the valet and follow the signs pointing me to where the wedding is taking place.
I turn the corner and run right into the girl I’m searching for. “Don’t you make things convenient?”
“What are you doing here?” She grabs my wrist and pulls me into an abandoned corner.
“I’m here to be with you. I meant what I said, Clara I’m falling for you.” Her head falls onto my chest and I stroke the bare skin of her neck.
“Thank god. I was going to find you after the wedding and tell you the exact same thing.” She lifts her head and meets my eyes.
"Clara, you were the first woman to see beyond my body. I've always thought my physique, my muscles, were the only good thing about me. It’s what other people made me believe when they bullied me. And I didn’t really know how to handle all the attention from the ladies. So, I kind of went overboard. But you saw me. Even if I couldn't work out every day I know you’d still be my side, and that means the world to me."
Clara pulls me close, kissing my cheek, and then snuggling into my chest. “I think you saw the real me too.”
“Shall we do this thing?” I glance around, wondering what this wedding will be like.
“Maureen’s going to be pissed.” Her voice is muffled in my shirt but is still clear enough to make out.
“I promise not to show up to her second wedding.”
Clara stands up and grins at me. “So, you’re going to make me do the next one solo?”
“I figure this little stunt will get us both banned from the next one.”
Clara throws her head back and laughs. My fingers reach out and trace her cheek, unable to keep myself from touching her. Maureen picked out light pink for the bridesmaid’s dresses, and Clara’s a damn knockout. It makes her creamy white skin shine and I want to lick every bit of it. Her blue eyes sparkle and her red lips beg to be kissed.
“You think you’re going to be able stand me for that long?”
I pull her against me, exploring the bare skin of her back the low cut has given me access to. “I think I’m going to be able to stand you for a really long time.”
She opens her mouth, but I’m not in the mood to keep talking. I kiss her, enjoying the feel of her soft lips against mine. Clara clings onto me and my hand reaches down and bunches up the skirt of her dress.
“We can’t do this here,” she says, not letting go of her death grip on my suit.
Once again, reality of where we are brings me back from the brink of insanity Clara always keeps me on. She rubs my lips with her index finger.
I snake my tongue out, licking the digit.
She laughs, smacking me on the chest. “Stop, I was trying to get the lipstick off you.” She covers her mouth with her hand. “Oh shit, how bad did I mess up my makeup?” She lowers her hand and stares at me with concern.
Her lipstick’s smeared across her swollen lips. Her cheeks have a healthy pink stain to them and I love that I’m the one who made her look so undone. “I’ve never seen you look sexier,” I tell her the truth.
She cocks her head to the side, silently saying she doesn’t believe me. “We’ll talk later. I have to go. The wedding should be starting soon.”
“I’ll be in the back watching your sexy ass and thinking about all the nasty things I’m going to do to you later.”
Clara's face flames red and she doesn’t answer.
Honestly, she doesn’t have to. The blush is enough for me.
I brush a kiss over her lips afraid I won’t be able to stop if I really start kissing her.
She turns to walk away but shoots me a wink over her shoulder. “I'm sorry for what I said last night. You were right I was scared and pushed you away. By the way, you’re not the only one with nasty thoughts. You look damn sexy in a suit.”
I chuckle as she walks away. When I get my erection to stop announcing itself by tenting my pants, I fix my tie and head into the venue.
The wedding is just as pretentious as I expected it was going to be. Maureen’s dress is an abomination of lace and tulle attempting to outshine her bridesmaids. Yet all I can do is devour Clara with my eyes, standing with grace and elegance as she watches her stepsister walk into her first divorce.
Clara scans the crowd. When her eyes land on me they stay there, and I don’t want it any other way. I raise an eyebrow and she gives me a bright smile which I can’t help but return. My cock wants to wake up, but I keep him down promising him a night he’ll never forget when we get Clara out of here.
