Lizzie settled into my chest, and I told her all about living in LA, the shelters, Duke, and crazy Lana. She wasn't impressed about my promiscuous time there, but she tried to pretend it didn't bother her. I told her about the bar, cooking, and what I'd helped do there and how much I loved it—telling her about the regulars and how they'd become my family. I'd finished my entire story, and my body felt like a Titanic-sized anvil had been removed from my chest. The weight of my confession was such a relief that my body collapsed against Lizzie for some much-needed rest and recovery.

She moved away from the comfort of my body and gazed into my eyes. "Phin, we will fix this, and it's going to be fine." I looked at her, and there was so much love I was speechless. I couldn't decide if I should speak or kiss her. She drew me in close for a hard hug.

"Elizabeth, I can't breathe." We both giggled, and she loosened her arms and sat back to look at me.

"Phin, why did you end up here tonight?" Here was the five-million-dollar question that she'd finally got around to asking.

“I missed you so much, and I couldn't stay away anymore. I didn't get into the shelter tonight because it was raining so hard. Actually, I haven’t been at a shelter the last two nights. I’ve been sitting across the street watching your front door because you hadn’t been to get your coffee from the café, and I was worried about you."

"You did?" Lizzie teared up again, but the smile on her face made it all worth it.


"Yep, most days I was never far away from you. I visited your work after the weekend to check you were all right, but the storm had other plans.”

She took the lapels of the robe in her hands and pulled me toward her. "Phin, we'll figure out a way to get your life on track. You'll be safe; your parents will have to kill me to get to you. Do you hear me?"

I stared at her, unable to look away from those caring light blue eyes. "Lizzie, no one has ever felt like that about me, not even my parents. I was just so stupid and scared. I am sorry I took off. Can you forgive me? By the way, I was the one who ordered you a pizza. Lizzie, I wanted to be here every day and it broke my heart that I couldn’t find the strength to return earlier."

Before I could say anymore her lips hit me so hard, she bit my lip. I didn't care; it was the best sort of pain.

"I knew it!" She was grinning like I'd given her a present to open.

"Elizabeth Baxter, you know I love you, right?” I cupped her face, I needed her to understand that right now.

“Phineas Dunbar, you know I love you too." I was relieved when she'd said it back to me.

I maneuvered her onto my lap. She put her hands inside the robe and ran her finger up my chest. The feeling of her skin on mine was something I thought would never happen again. Her touch felt so good, so I fought to keep my eyes open.

"Lizzie, I missed you so much. I will make it up to you right now."

She smiled through teary eyes. "You better fucking believe you will make it up to me, for the rest of our lives. Now take me to bed, Phineas Dunbar."

Without missing a beat, I picked her up and took her to bed. Once we were in the bedroom, I slowly pulled down her yoga pants savoring her soft skin and kissing my way up to my favorite freckle in the crook of her neck. I touched her tenderly and caressed her body slowly and sensually, trying to take it all in. I moved away so I could see her before I inched down her panties and inhaled her sexy smell. It hit my cock hard how much I'd had missed her.

“Phin,” she begged.

I whipped her oversized shirt over her head, and I'd never been happier that she wasn't wearing a bra. I was in the promised land. Her tits! God, I missed them! Her nipples were hard and calling me to put my mouth on them. I'd dreamed about them so many nights when I tried to sleep. I brushed my thumb lightly over each as she winced with pleasure. I was familiar with the sound she was making, permitting me to do it more. She was watching me, biting her bottom lip as I slowly drove her crazy working her breasts with my mouth. Sucking hard on her nipples had her writhing up against me, holding my head against her. Her fingernails dug into my scalp, and I loved it.

"Phin!" was all she could say as I laughed with her nipple in my mouth.

I released it and enjoyed the popping sound it made. "Lizzie, patience, sweetheart." Laying her across the bed was the sexiest sight. I was relieved and grateful that I was getting a second chance to see it. "Spread your legs for me. I need to look at you. You don't know how much I missed seeing and tasting you."

Sitting on my knees on the end of the bed, I admired and cherished her. I slide off the robe, crawled over the bed and lay down next to her. I touched her belly so lightly, watching the goose bumps form on her skin. Unable to look away from her lustful and needy gaze.

"You truly are so beautiful; it hurts to look at you." I nuzzled into her hand as she cupped my cheek, enjoying her touch.

"Thank you for coming back, Phineas."

Unable to stop myself, I moved in and consumed her mouth; our tongues met and stroked each other's. Things escalated in our kissing and touching, we couldn't get enough of each other, breathing was even hard to do, but neither of us wanted to break the connection. Finally, I gave her bottom lip a playful tug and let go.

I laughed as we both tried to catch our breath. "I needed that."

"You and me both. I love it when you kiss me that deep."

"Sweetheart, you like everything deep."

She giggled, which was the sexiest thing I'd ever heard. The sound was like a song that calmed my soul.

"Yes, I do."

She raised her eyebrows. "Speaking of deep, isn't it time for someone to be balls deep inside me?"

My girl had such a dirty mouth in bed, and I loved it. Right now, I will put it to work. "What's the magic word?"

"Please." She smiled at me, and I couldn't wait any longer. Thank you would come later.
