Releasing her nipple, I lifted my head. “What do you need, baby?” Her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were closed. Slowly opening them, she shook her head. “Gone all shy?” I teased, kissing her while tracing my fingers over her stomach and between her legs. Dragging my fingers through her wet folds, she moaned into my mouth, raising her hips off the bed. “What about this?” I whispered against her lips, pushing a finger inside her, my thumb circling her clit.
“God! Yes,” she moaned, her hands fisting the sheets. Adding another finger, I pumped both inside her, my thumb still circling her clit. Knowing she must be sore from earlier I gently removed my fingers, and she whimpered.
“I’ve got you, sweetheart,” I assured her. Kissing down her body, I settled between her legs, my tongue licking through her heat before seeking out her engorged clit. Circling it with my tongue, I held her legs down as she bucked against me. Her one hand was tugging on my hair while the other remained fisted in the sheet. Reaching a hand up, I found her nipple, rolling it between my fingers. Her breathing hitched as I sucked her clit into my mouth. Her legs began to twitch and I knew she was close. Gently pushing two fingers inside her she exploded, moaning out my name as she came. I continued to suck on her clit as she rode out her orgasm. She pulled on my hair when it became too much, and I sat back on my heels watching her.
“It just gets better,” she muttered, her eyes still closed. Laughing, I pulled her up, her t-shirt falling down to cover her chest.
“I love you,” I said, kissing her gently. Her expression softened, and she smiled.
“I love you too.”
“Let’s watch a movie and eat.” She nodded and scooted backward, slipping her legs under the now rumpled comforter. She patted the bed next to her, and I jumped up pushing my jeans down my legs, leaving me in just my boxers and a shirt. Grabbing the pizza box, I pulled the comforter back, climbing in next to her. Opening the box, she took a slice before cuddling up next to me.
“What do you think the police want to ask me?” She paused. “I’m sorry, I know we weren’t going to mention it again tonight…” She trailed off and looked up at me sheepishly.
“It’s fine, baby.” I tucked a strand of stray hair behind her ear and kissed her on the head. “Guess they’ll want to know when you last saw him, and what happened to make you leave.” I felt her body tense, and I slipped my arms around her. “I’ll be with you the whole time,” I reassured her.
“Thank you,” she whispered, nestling even closer, while she slowly ate her pizza. Ten minutes later and she was fast asleep in my arms. Tossing the pizza box onto the floor, I shuffled down the bed. Laying us both down, I positioned her so that her head was resting on my chest. She stirred, and I stroked her hair until her breathing evened out and she fell back to sleep.
Pulling her close, I closed my eyes, thankful that she was safely wrapped in my arms. I would do whatever it took to keep her safe, I just hoped and prayed it would be enough.

Opening my eyes, I sat up in a panic. My hand came to rest on my chest, my heart pounding under my fingers. As tears tracked down my face, I frantically looked around the room. It was dark, and it took me a few seconds to realize I was in Brody’s bedroom and not back at my mom’s house with Evan, where I had been in my nightmare. Taking a deep breath, my breathing began to level out when I realized I was safe. Wiping my eyes with the back of my hand, I dried my tears. It had been the first nightmare I’d had about Evan. I wasn’t surprised I’d dreamed of him after what Brody had told me earlier, but the dream had been so vivid. I’d really believed I was back there with him.
By now my eyes had adjusted to the dark room, and I looked over my shoulder at Brody who was fast asleep next to me. He lay on his side, with his one arm under his pillow. His dark hair was falling over his forehead and I watched his chest rise and fall steadily as he slept. Scooting to the edge of the bed I made my way to the bathroom. Flicking the light on I closed the door behind me, not wanting to wake Brody. Squinting at the bright light, I quickly used the toilet before washing my hands. Looking at my reflection in the mirror, I frowned. My face was pink and blotchy and my eyes were puffy from crying. My hair was wild, and seeing a hair tie on the vanity, I quickly tied it up in a messy bun on the top of my head.
Dropping my head, I sighed. I had no idea what time it was, but I doubted I would be able to go back to sleep. I didn’t want to close my eyes and see Evan’s face again. Maybe getting lost between the pages of a book would take my mind off everything for a bit? Coming out of the bathroom, I made my way to the bedroom door, glancing back at Brody. He was still fast asleep. Needing the light to read, I slipped along the hall to my bedroom. Finding my book, I climbed under the comforter, desperate to lose myself in the story.
Twenty minutes later, my eyes were burning, and I could barely hold the book up, I was that tired. Placing it on the nightstand, I pulled the comforter around me, giving in to sleep.

Iwas woken by the door to my room hitting the wall. “I thought you’d left.” Brody exclaimed, crossing the room and sitting on the edge of the bed. “Why are you in here?”
Blinking away sleep, I took a minute to fully wake up. “Sorry, I had a nightmare and couldn’t sleep, so I came in here to read. I didn’t want to disturb you.” Sitting up, I placed a kiss on his stubbled jaw.
“A nightmare? You should have woken me up.” A frown formed on his face and I waved off his concern.
“I’m fine, no point both of us being awake.”
“Was it about Evan?” I nodded and played with the edge of the comforter. “Do you want to talk about it?”
“Not really. It was just a stupid dream.” He nodded and climbed into bed with me.
“I missed waking up with you,” he mumbled into my hair as he pulled me against his bare chest. “I don’t think we’ve spent a night apart since we got together.” He was right. My bed had lain empty ever since I’d crept into his room a few weeks ago when I was unable to sleep. I’d felt a little uncomfortable thinking his parents were down the hall. Brody had informed me that their bedroom was in the attic on the other side of the house, and that there was a separate staircase leading to their room. I still didn’t feel completely at ease with it, but they seemed happy enough that Brody and I were together. Whether they would still feel the same when they knew about Evan, remained to be seen.
“You’re quiet. Are you okay?” he asked, pulling me from my thoughts.
“Just tired.” It wasn’t a complete lie. Although I’d fallen asleep last night, I must have been awake for over an hour after the nightmare. I didn’t want to tell him I was worried about what his parents would think when they found out what was going on. While Claire could never replace my mom, I’d become really close to her since I’d arrived on the ranch. I felt awful knowing I might be bringing trouble to her family.
“Why don’t you stay in bed and get some more sleep?” he suggested.
“Are you going to stay with me?” I asked, raising my eyebrows. Grinning, he gently pushed me down on the bed, his body hovering over mine.
“Baby, if I stay you won’t be getting much sleep.”
“Maybe I’m not that tired after all.” Catching him off guard I rolled him over so I was straddling him. Leaning down, I captured his mouth with mine. His hands found my hips, his fingers digging into my skin as I pushed my tongue into his mouth. Feeling his erection growing, I ground my hips against his and he moaned. Breaking the kiss, my lips travelled over his jaw and down his neck. Kissing over his chest, my tongue darted out licking along his abs. Reaching his stomach, my fingers traced over the line of dark hair that went from his belly button and disappeared under the waistband of his boxers. Sitting up I gripped the edge of my t-shirt, pulling it over my head and tossing it on the floor. His eyes went wide as he watched me sitting naked on top of him.
