I tsked and pulled harder until she audibly popped off my dick at the same moment I exploded, painting her tits with my load.

Her chest was heaving as I held her head in place and ran my finger through the dripping mess on her chest. I held it up to her mouth and she wrapped her plump lips around my finger and licked it clean. I peered down at her basically transparent bra as her rock-hard nipples pushed against the mesh fabric. Ryleigh Kelly at my mercy with my fucking mark all over her was the hottest thing I’d ever seen in my life.

I was such a fucking goner.

We were all gathered around my dad’s table for dinner as we caught up on our weeks. This was another tradition I wasn’t part of all these years because I wasn’t here to experience it. My dad would call me on Sunday night after my siblings left and ask me about my travels, but I didn’t get the updates about my siblings like he did.

Keegan walked back into the dining room after feeding Marnie and placed the little sleeping nug right in my dad’s arms. He softened the moment he took in her face.

“Aiden and Rori, anything new?” he asked without looking away from Marnie.

Aiden cleared his throat. “Actually, yeah. We put an offer in on a house.”

The room went silent. Forks stopped cutting food and all side conversation stopped as our heads snapped to them. We all stayed silent for one moment too long.

“It needs some work before we’d move in, but if the inspection goes well, then we’ll close at the end of the month.”

Aiden and Rori buying a house meant that they’d be moving out of the Malibu house. It was like the last Kelly standing was moving on.

“That’s amazing. Happy for you guys,” Keegan said, breaking the silence. She smiled, but her eyes were glassy.

Maeve wiped at a tear and sniffed as Colin wrapped his arm around her and kissed her head.

“Does this feel like the end of an era to anyone else?” Nolan whispered, looking at Maggie.

“All the Kelly kids officially moved out of the Malibu house.” Owen sighed.

“It feels bittersweet,” Aiden agreed.

Aiden and Rori explained they wanted a smaller space closer to the hospital so Rori didn’t have to deal with the horrible traffic every day, but it was still a weird feeling. That house always held life. It was something that defined our lives and helped mold us into who we were.

“Why is everyone crying?” MJ asked from next to me.

“Uncle Aiden just lives in a very special house and he’s moving,” I whispered to him.

“We’ve all lived there,” Keegan added.

“Not all of us,” Owen said under his breath, not looking me in the eyes.

His words hit me right in the gut. It wasn’t lost on me that living in the Malibu house was another tradition I’d never be part of. I missed out on my chance to grow up there, and now it was too late. Living there now would feel lonely and isolating. It was too much space for me to live alone.

As much fun as it had been being home, I had a life that I was going back to. One that didn’t have sexy baseball players or family dinners. One where there were no expectations and complete freedom.

I kept my head down until we finished with our weekly updates and started clearing the table. It was Nolan’s week to do the dishes so once everything was in the kitchen, I stepped outside for some fresh air and a few minutes alone. I dropped onto the outdoor sectional that sat on the patio and hugged my knees to my chest. I rested my cheek there and blinked back the sudden surge of tears that were gathering behind my eyes.

I will not cry today.

I whispered the mantra to myself over and over until I heard the distinct sound of the back sliding door opening. My dad walked up to me and sat down, looking out over the pool and mountains that surrounded us.

“You doing okay?” His voice was soft like it always was when we spoke.

I nodded subtly against my knees.

“What’s going on? Is it Mason?”
