"Three years of commitment means nothing to a guy like David. Not when you're not putting out for him," Ava says bitterly.
"He cheated on you because you weren't having sex with him?" I force out the question and bite my tongue to stop myself from letting my anger speak.
"Among other things," she shrugs.
"Well, now I wish I would have nailed a kick to his tiny dick before Matt showed up."
"You didn't have to hit him, you know? David is nothing more than an awful memory to me now."
Shrugging, I give her a small smile. "It was worth it. Trust me."
She moves around the counter to wrap an arm around my waist. Leaning into me, she hides a smile. "You're a goof."
"A hot goof, right?"
"Whatever helps you sleep better at night, baby," she teases and rests her head on my shoulder.
"What if you help me sleep better at night?" I flirt. Her adorable giggle rings in my ears as her grip tightens on me.
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you what happened sooner. In all honesty, I was embarrassed. I mean, come on. Who doesn't know they're being cheated on with three other girls?"
"You have nothing to be sorry for, Ava. You didn't know because you shouldn't have had to worry about that happening in the first place," I scoff. "I can't change the past, but I can promise that I will never do that to you." I let out a deep breath and tilt her head up so her eyes meet mine. "In case you haven't noticed, I'm crazy about you, Octavia Layton."
"I'm crazy about you too, Oakley Hutton," she whispers and stretches on her tiptoes to pull me down so I can press my lips to hers.
My arms find their way to her waist and I press her against me. I kiss her back—hard, letting her know that I want this as much as she does.
I slowly drag my non-stitched hand up her body. My fingertips brush against the material of her shirt that lies beside her left breast. She shivers, making my confidence grow. My hand finally reaches its destination, grabbing the back of her neck in my large palm and wrapping my fingers in the hair resting there. A quiet moan reverberates through the silent apartment. A jolt rushes down to the hardness building in my jeans when I realize that the noise came from Ava.
I push her back against the island, our mouths connecting at a surprisingly fast pace. I move my knee to rest in between her legs, pushing against the heat radiating there. Her hands move from my neck to the hem of my shirt, gently yanking on the material. I unlatch our lips to pull my t-shirt off and throw it across the room.
I grab under her thighs, effortlessly lifting her small body so she can wrap them around my waist. I carry her over to the couch and gently lay her down, resting my body over hers.
I start to plant wet kisses down her neck and make my way back up to claim her lips with mine again. Her fingers trace the stiff muscles of my abdomen. A low groan escapes from my throat. She takes a turn gliding her lips down my neck, sucking hard enough underneath my jaw to leave a mark. I pull back slightly and try to get my breathing under control.
"We have to stop now," I manage to choke, already kicking myself in the ass.
She nods her head in understanding and leans up to give me a quick kiss. She drops her head back against the couch and closes her eyes, her chest rising and falling rapidly.
"Can we watch a movie?"
"Of course. What do you want to watch?" I move off of her and quickly adjust the bulge in my pants. I grab the remote from the coffee table and turn on the T.V.
"Surprise me," she murmurs.
I end up picking the first movie that pops up on Netflix. I move around so she can rest her head on my chest. My eyelids droop as the opening credits begin to play, and I fall into a long, peaceful sleep.
