“You asked. I answered.” I shrugged like it was no big deal. But in all reality, it was a very big deal. Her family didn’t like me and yet, there I was thinking about all the ways I could stick my dick in her. Which wasn’t something I was used to thinking. The opposite sex had never appealed to me. Not even the same sex. It used to be frustrating until I found out that it was a normal thing for asexuals. But I wasn’t even sure if I could call myself that. I had done research and found out that it could change if you found the right person. And clearly, I had. But it didn’t make sense when Busy and I didn’t know each other.

“You’re frustrating, you know that right?”

“I’ve been called worse.” I moved the plate to the nightstand and went to grab the sandwich when I was suddenly feeling lightheaded, so I went for the cupcake instead. It was chocolate with red icing on top. Maybe sugar would help.

“Tanner? Are you okay?”

Spots danced in my vision. “I think I need sugar.” Squeezing my eyes shut, I pinched the bridge of my nose and shook my head.

“Hey.” A gentle hand landed on my shoulder. “Do you need more pain meds?”

“No.” Truth was, I never took any pain meds to begin with. Not since the surgery. Nero had given me some to take home with me, but I threw them out as soon as I was able. I didn’t like the sense of losing control. I had already experienced that as a kid. I would rather suffer through the agony, than to have something else control me.

“Tanner.” The bed shifted beside me with added weight.

I took a deep breath and then another. My racing heart finally slowed to a steady beat.

“Hey.”

I opened my eyes then, finding Busy smiling at me.

“You good?”

Before I could stop myself, I pulled her into my arms.

She gasped, her body stiffening, but I didn’t let her go. I only held her. I didn’t want to ever let her go but I knew that I would have to. Because eventually, someone would come looking for her. And even though the door was closed, it wasn’t locked. I was taking a risk by having her in the room, but I needed it. I needed her. I wasn’t sure why. I couldn’t explain it but touching her, holding her in my arms, calmed the anxiety burning through me.

Tightening my hold around her, I pushed my face into the crook of her neck and inhaled.

“Tanner,” she whispered, returning the embrace.

When her hands slid down my back, a shiver followed.

“I just need to hold you,” I told her, my mouth finding the soft spot beneath her ear.

“Okay, baby,” she murmured.

My heart jumped. I pulled back, moving my hands to her hair. “Say that again.”

“Sorry, I…it just came out.” Her cheeks reddened.

“Say it,” I repeated slowly. “Again.”

Busy licked her lips. “Baby.”

A low growl escaped me, my hold tightening on her hair.

Something snapped between us.

Just as I was about to push her away, she shoved me back and jumped into my arms. “Busy, what are you—”

“Shut up.” She crushed her lips against mine, taking all of my words and breath and making it hers.

I sighed, finally realizing that this was where I belonged. My hands trailed down her back, reaching her ass and pulling her flush against me.

When her center connected with my dick, it lengthened even more beneath her. A soft gasp escaped her.

Reaching up, I cupped her head and broke the kiss. “That’s all for you, Busy.”
