“What if I said I wanted to rip all your clothes off and take you right here and now?” I whisper in his ear, then bite down his lobe.

He swallows hard. “Baby, as much as that’s incredibly appealing right now, even though Mike can’t hear, he can still see us.”

I frown. “Hmm… yeah, guess you’re right.” I pretend to move away from him, but he grabs my waist and pulls me onto his lap. “Whoa,” I shriek, as I wrap my arms around his neck in triumph, smiling brightly.

“Doesn’t mean I can’t kiss you, though.” Suddenly, his lips meet mine with a strong and passionate, completely lust-filled kiss. He tucks a loose strand of hair behind my ear, moving his fingers through my strands, holding my lips to his. Aiden makes the world spin in slow motion—just the two of us entangled in each other feeling nothing but pure bliss. It’s as though my heart stops beating at his touch, and only he can revive me. He’s the true giver of life, life as I now know it.

I spend the rest of the trip in his lap, cuddled into him. I nuzzle his shoulder as he strokes my bare arm softly, sending a welcomed tingle down my spine.

“I want you to stay at my apartment over the weekend?”

I look up at him and nod. “Sure. What do you have planned?”

“Anything you want.”

“I think I have a pretty good idea of what you want, Mr. O’Connell.”

We pull up a short time later, and Aiden opens the car door. I move off his lap, and he exits, placing his hand out for me to take. Hand in hand, we walk to the door, and my mood shifts from pure happiness to despair as the overwhelming knowledge hits that he’ll be leaving.

“Wish I could stay,” he admits, pulling me to him when we reach my door.

My thighs clench at the thought of what would happen if he did. “Then stay.”

He exhales but leans in embracing me tightly. “Don’t tempt me... I really wish I could but, I can’t. Friday night? I’ll pick you up?”

Excitement bubbles inside me. “Sounds good. Should I bring anything special if I’m staying for the weekend?”

He grins, moving his forehead to meet mine, making my heart thud a little faster. “Bring anything you want to,” he instructs, staring into my eyes. “Jeni…”

“Mmm…” I murmur as I get lost in his lust-filled eyes.

“I have to go before I can’t,” he pants.

I don’t want him to leave, so I kiss him forcefully taking him by surprise. This time I’m in control, turning him so he’s against the door with me leaning into him. My fingers tug at his hair, and his arms wrap around my waist. We kiss frantically like there’s some sort of impending apocalypse, and these are our last moments together. I push in closer, holding him against the door. Our tongues find their way to each other’s, joining as though they never want to part again. I need him to know how much I want him, how much I care for him, how much I don’t want him to leave.

Then my subconscious kicks in at my apparent lack of self-control.

I’ve only known him for a little over a week.

How the fuck can I possibly be feeling this way already?

Am I letting my guard down too quickly?

How is he doing this to me?

I pull away, leaving him breathless against my door and smirking like a schoolboy.

Suddenly, I’m angry or is it confused at him or at myself, I don’t know.

How could I have let this happen?

How can I be falling for him so damn quickly?

It’s way too soon.

I scrunch my face up with my ever-growing thought processes.

“You okay?” he asks, moving his hand to touch my arm.
