“Oh, you can definitely show me. But I need to hear you say what that means.” I don’t want any misunderstandings, and most of all, I’d hate for her to regret it when it’s done.
“It means that this is going well between us, and I want to see where it goes.” Good enough for me.
“And Sawyer?”
“Is currently with Mandy,” she deadpans.
“That doesn’t mean anything,” I say.
“Doesn’t it?”
“You said yourself, you saw men all the time.”
“Do you want to hear something pathetic?” she says. “Just remember that I’m a strong, independent woman, but rejection is my weak spot, okay?” She’s joking, but I can see the vulnerability in her eyes. “The only reason I pick guys up is so I don’t have to sit and listen to Sawyer and whatever girl he brings back. None of them have ever even made me come.”
“What?!” I can’t believe it. Well, I can, but it’s tragic.
“The casual flings. Not one of them made me orgasm. Yesterday, you were the first person who’d ever done that, and then I got so overwhelmed and fucked that up too. I stressed all day about you not wanting to bother with me now I’d screwed up and freaked out on you.”
“Harlow! I wanted to stay, but I didn’t know what was wrong and didn’t want to pressure you.”
“I think maybe I need a bit of pressure sometimes,” she whispers.
“Deal. You’ll be lucky if I ever let you sleep alone again.” She looks up and smiles at that as I reach up to stroke her cheek.
“You don’t think I’m fucked up?” she asks hesitantly.
“No. I think you’re perfectly imperfect, but we all are. I don’t want you to worry about that with me. And if you do, I want you to talk to me. Just like I think you should talk to Sawyer.”
“I can’t—” I put a finger against her lips.
“Not right now. Later. But just think about it, okay?”
“Okay. Why are you so determined?” she asks.
“Because I want you to be giddily happy at all times. I want you to have everything you want.” She leans in close, until our lips are only a hairsbreadth away and I can feel her breath on my mouth.
“What if what I want is for you to kiss me already?” she whispers.
“I can do that.” I grin as she closes the distance to meet my lips with hers. Grabbing her hips, I pull her down harder against my lap, and she gasps when we connect through our clothing. Focusing on a serious conversation with Harlow sitting right there was no easy feat. I grip her chin between my thumb and forefinger and drag her back to me, eliminating any remaining space between us with a forceful kiss. She wraps her arms around my neck, and I move my hand to her back, stroking up underneath her shirt and tracing her curves. She shivers in my hold, and I use the small break in our kiss to whisper against her lips. “Let’s go back to the ‘coming’ thing.”
“What about it?” she asks.
“I want to know what you like.” I rub my thumb over her nipple and can feel the outline of what must be a lacy bra. “What are your fantasies? Sawyer can’t be the only reason you saw those guys.”
“No.” She grinds on my lap a little as I gently pinch her nipple. “I like sex. Well, I like the idea of sex more than what I’ve had so far.” Pushing her shirt and her bra cups up so I can reach her uncovered, I roll her buds between my fingers, pulling slightly as her back arches.
“What ideas?” She grinds and whimpers, leaning into my hands.
“Honestly, everything you did yesterday was pretty great.” Ego boost right there. “And seeing your bite when I was getting changed today wasveryhot. I like seeing reminders of you.” This gives me a couple of ideas to work with.
“Anything I do that you don’t like, you tell me, okay? And anything you think you want to try, let me know.”
“Deal,” she gasps, as I pinch slightly harder as her hips pick up pace. I grab the nape of her neck and pull her in for another kiss. She pushes her hands between us and runs them down my shirt, but just as she reaches my waistband, the door knocks, and we both laugh as we lean our foreheads together.
“Rain check,” I promise with a sigh. Fucking cockblocking takeaway.
