“Kace…” she whispers, my fingers digging into the sheets beneath us as I thrust harder and harder, her breath hitching with every thrust.

“Take that cock baby, every inch of it.” I groan, hissing as her nails dig into my skin and I start to lose my fucking mind. I lean over her, sinking my teeth into her bottom lip as I begin to really fuck her, one hand behind her neck, the other on her ass as my hips punish her for making me wait this long to experience this kind of pleasure.

Ashley gasps, her walls contracting around my cock as her orgasm barrels to the surface. “Come with me,” she whimpers, her head flying back as her legs tighten around my hips.

“You need me to come?” I ask, already knowing the answer. When she nods, I grunt, thrusting into her hard and claiming her as my own. Her walls tighten as she lets go, her orgasm crashing to the surface as mine takes over, my hips erratically thrusting until both of us are breathless.

“What the fuck was that?” Ashley asks, a huge smile over her face as she comes back down to Earth.

“That,” I mutter before kissing her softly. “That is something we are definitely going to do again.”

CHAPTER NINE

ASHLEY

Strong arms wrap around me as the sunlight filters through the sliding glass doors. I sigh, melting back into the warmth that wraps around me and that’s when last night plays like a movie behind my eyes and I gasp, falling out of the bed and grunting as I hit the floor.

“Fuck, you okay baby?” I ignore the fact that the endearment falling from Kacey’s lips causes warmth to settle deep in my chest and focus on covering up my very naked body.

“What time is it?” I wonder aloud, already knowing it’s not early enough for me to sneak back into my room without Kelsey asking a barrage of questions. Kacey picks up his phone that’s plugged in next to the bed and shows me the screen. Eight-fifteen. I’m fucking screwed.

“Shit,” I mutter, hauling the sheet up under my arms and frantically searching the room, trying to find my clothes. “Shit, shit, shit.”

“Ash, what the fuck is going on?” My eyes snap to his worried ones and for the first time since everything happened, I realize how badly I’ve fucked up. Being with Kacey was everything I ever wanted, but the reality of what we just did and how it will affect every aspect of my life weighs heavy on my shoulders.

“I need to get out of here,” I say, my eyes traveling along the floor until I catch a glimpse of my dress and snatch it up, turning away from him as I pull it over my head. At this point I don’t care about anything else, I just need to get out of this room and figure out what I’m going to say to Kelsey when she sees me do the walk of shame.

“Hold on, you’re not going anywhere,” Kace demands, flipping the covers off his legs as he stands, my eyes taking him in and wondering why this had to happen when I literally have nowhere to go.

“Kacey, I don’t have time for this right now. I need to get to my room and figure out what the fuck I’m going to tell your sister.” His eyes widen, his shock an obvious sign that he didn’t expect those words to come out of my mouth.

“What do you mean? She’s been pushing us together for years. I’m pretty sure she’ll want to throw us a fucking party.” I can’t help the chuckle that escapes but I shake my head, smothering that laughter down deep, knowing this is all a terrible idea.

“That’s the problem Kace, I can’t let her find out.” His eyes narrow as he picks up a pair of gray sweatpants and puts them on, giving me a visual I never wanted but will store in my memory forever.

“What do you mean she can’t find out? Are you ashamed of me or something?” The hurt in his voice gives me pause and I drop the purse I had picked up from the floor and make my way to where he’s standing. I grab the sides of his face, meeting his eyes.

“God no. Kace what happened last night was perfect. More than perfect if that’s even possible but that’s all it can be.” Kacey says nothing and for a second I wonder if he’s pissed at me, but then his fingers wrap around my wrist, taking both of my hands and placing them on his chest.

“Why are you fighting this so much?” I close my eyes, basking in the way his hands feel against mine, the way his skin feels under my touch. It’s like a drug and I know if I don’t leave now, I won’t. And that will be an even bigger problem. “Ash, talk to me.” I take a breath, knowing I need to get this off my chest and also knowing that he deserves to know what’s rattling around inside my head, even if it won’t seem rational to him.

“You and Kelsey are my family.” His brow crinkles and he tilts his head, taking my hands and leading me to the bed where he sits, pulling me onto his lap. I fight to sit beside him, but he manhandles me until I’m straddling him, his arms wrapping around my waist, securing me in place. I expect him to ask more questions, but he stays silent. The only glimmer of nervousness coming from him is the fact that his arms tighten around my waist ever so slightly with every breath I take. “You know my home life has never been the best.” He nods, and I continue. “You also know that I consider Kelsey my sister and your parents more my parents than my own.” He nods again, that glimmer of sadness flicking over his eyes but still, he says nothing.

“I can’t lose that. I can’t lose the one place I feel safe in the world. I can’t lose Christmases, birthdays, and Thanksgiving. And I definitely can’t lose Kelsey.”

“Why would us being together mean you lose all of that?” I sigh, my hands falling between us as my eyes follow.

“Nothing lasts forever Kace. At least not for me. So, if we do this, if we take this to where I know you want it to go, I will inevitably lose everything. I can’t do it. I can’t ruin the only good things in my life.”

“Oh, baby no,” Kacey whispers before taking my mouth in the softest kiss I have ever felt. The tears form fast, falling down my cheeks before he pulls away. When he notices the tears fall, he gives me a sad smile before wiping them away with his thumb. “I’ve had feelings for you since I was sixteen, and last night was probably the best night of my entire life and I will not let you walk away from me without a fight.” I open my mouth to say something, but he covers my lips with his thumb as he grips my chin, tilting my head down so our eyes connect once more. “Ash, I know you’re scared, but you can’t let that fear dictate your life. You can’t walk through life doing the safe thing, the proper thing, when you know what your heart wants.” God, I hate that he’s right, but that pebble of fear still lingers as I detangle myself from his hold and stand.

“Kace, I need to get back to my room.” The disappointment in his eyes cuts me, but I know I’m doing the right thing.

“If that’s the way you feel,” he mutters, not meeting my eyes as I stand there motionless. The sadness radiating from him is palpable and it takes every part of me to walk toward the door, picking up my purse on the way and opening the door. Before I leave I peer over my shoulder, seeing that he hasn’t moved an inch.

“For what it’s worth, last night was everything I thought it would be and more. Maybe if things were different, we could have worked, but right now… it’s impossible.” And with that I walk away, shutting the door behind me and wondering if I just made the biggest mistake of my life. My head is reminding me that I did the smart thing while my heart is screaming that I’m throwing away everything I ever wanted for an outcome that might never exist.
