“We can, Skyler.” I cup her face and wipe the tears from under her eyes. “I resigned from CGU.”
“Wh—what?” Her eyes are as wide as saucers.
“I quit. I’m finishing out the semester and then I’m done. I won’t be there in the spring.”
“Wait…you quit…for me?”
“I can’t think of a better reason.”
“But…where will you go? Back to Boston?”
I can’t leave you, baby. “No. I got another teaching job in D.C. I called in a few favors. I’m going to teach at Brookdale Law School.”
“Oh my God.” She puts a hand over her mouth and stares up at me. “This is real…”
“Baby, it was never not real,” I tell her as I wrap my arms around her.
“But…we can be together?”
“Forever, I hope,” I whisper against her lips and she gasps, granting me access to her mouth. My tongue darts out in search of hers and she meets it with equal urgency, needing me as desperately as I need her.
“Aidan…” she whimpers as I lift her into my arms and sit at the table in her kitchen. She straddles me instantly, rubbing against me and mewling like a cat in heat. I release her mouth after what feels like forever and find her chest, licking her skin clean of the sweat that coats her.
“You taste so fucking sweet,” I whisper against her.
“I love you so much. Promise me, we’ll never be apart again,” she begs. I bite her nipple through her sports bra before pulling the material down slightly and pressing my lips to the skin to soothe the sting.
“Never. These few weeks were rough. I missed you every day, princess.”
“Me too.” She rubs her nose against mine. “I thought about you all the time.” She blinks the tears from her eyes. “Come shower with me.”
“In your parent’s house, while your sister and your mother are up walking around? Think again, Sky.” As much as the idea of being in an enclosed space with a naked and wet Skyler appeals to me, I value my life a bit more than that. God knows where her father is.
She furrows her brow as she thinks of an alternative. I’m just about to mention that we can go to my hotel when her eyes light up. “We can go to the guest house. It’s where Serena lives.”
“Your sister?”
“It’ll be fine. Trust me.”
I remember the fresh ink that still can’t get wet. “Well, maybe I can just watch you shower.”
“You don’t want to join me? Aidan, we’re going to fuck in the shower. I just want to get clean first,” she says sarcastically, like I don’t know that’s where she was going with her plan.
“No, I know. I just…I can’t shower at the moment.”
“Oh…kay? Why?”
“I uhh…I got a tattoo.” I find myself hoping that she likes it. That it turns her on as much as hers turns me on.
She gasps and looks me over from head to toe, like she missed it. “Where? What? When?”
“My ribcage and last night. I went to Greenwich Artistry.”
Her lips form an ‘o’ shape and she smiles. “That’s where I got mine!”
“I know.” I kiss her hand and help her to her feet so I can show her.
“I didn’t know you wanted a tattoo?”
