“How was dinner?”
Rory rubbed her stomach. “Amazing! I love Italian food.”
My thumb gently ran over hers as we walked toward Christopher Columbus Park. She turned and walked backward. “Are we going to the trellis?”
With a wink, I nodded. “We are.”
A full-blown smile erupted on her face. “I love that place. I’ve seen so many proposals there.”
“I’ve seen a couple.”
She ran her tongue along her lip. Damn, she looked adorable. The blue knit hat she wore made her eyes stand out even more than they normally did.
I stopped walking and cupped her face within my hands. “Do you have any idea how you make me feel?”
Rory giggled. “Warm and fuzzy?”
My brows pinched together. “Um…no. I was going to say my body ached for you always.”
“Oh. Well, that’s a lot more romantic than my ‘warm and fuzzy.’?”
Laughing, I kissed her on the forehead.
Soon, Rory and I were walking hand and hand through the lighted trellis. She talked about Flash, how the case she was working on kept getting delayed, and how much fun it would be to go ice-skating. I made a mental note to take her ice-skating this winter at Frog Pond.
When we reached the end of the trellis, we stopped and faced each other. Her eyes were dancing with desire.
“Finn,” she whispered as I drew her body against mine and kissed her.
“Get a hotel!” some kids yelled as we both laughed.
I lifted my brows. “That sounds like a good idea.”
She tilted her head and gave me a questioning look. “A hotel?”
Nodding, I took her and headed toward a taxi.
“Finn! Where are we going?”
“I have to be inside you. Now.”
Twenty minutes later I was opening the door to the hotel room and pulling her in. It was like we couldn’t move fast enough. Our hunger for each other was growing each time we were together. Which was every chance we got.
Rory took her jacket off while I pulled my sweater and the shirt I had under it over my head and tossed them to the floor.
I watched as she stripped herself completely naked.
“Fucking hell, I want you.”
“Then take me, Finn. I’m yours.”
I picked her up and she wrapped her legs around my body. My hard dick pressed against her entrance, and it was then I remembered I didn’t have any condoms.
“Shit. I don’t have any condoms.”
Her fingers laced through my hair. “Do you have to wear one?”
My eyes widened in shock. “You want to make love with no protection?”
“I’m on the pill.”
I stared at her in a stunned silence.
“It’s okay, Finn. It was stupid for me to even suggest it.”
I smiled. “Do you have any idea how desperately I want to make love to you without a fucking condom separating us?”
A small grin tugged at her lips. “You’re not angry I suggested it?”
I grabbed her hands and pushed them over my head against the wall.
“I could never be angry about that, Rory. You mean everything to me, and for you to want this too, it makes me feel things I’ve never felt before.”
As a tear slipped out and rolled down the side of her face, she said, “I believe that feeling is love.”
I searched her eyes as I slowly pushed inside of her and said, “I believe you’re right, Éan. It’s love.”
I made love to her against the wall, then carried her to the bed, laid her on it, and made love to her again, pouring everything I had, everything I felt, into her.

My body was craving to touch Rory as we texted back and forth. Tonight was my last night on shift and then I’d be off for the entire weekend. She didn’t know about the camping trip I had planned for after the ball on Friday. I was tempted to tell her, but I kind of liked how she kept trying to guess.
Rory: So you won’t even give me a hint?
Me: No. Stop asking.
Rory: What if I promise you things?
That got my attention.
Me: What kind of things?
Rory: Are you busy?
Me: Never too busy for you…
My phone rang less than thirty seconds later.
“Hey,” I softly spoke into the phone. I had been standing outside of the firehouse enjoying the crisp fall evening.
“I miss you,” she whispered.
My chest squeezed. “Fuck I miss you.”
“So do you want to hear about my dress for the gala?”
The firefighters’ gala has been held for over 130 years. It had always been a big deal for my mother and sister. My brothers and I, on the other hand, could have cared less. This year, though, I was on pins and needles for some reason. Maybe knowing I’d be in the same room with both Rory and her father had something to do with it. Plus, the idea of dressing up for an entire evening was not my idea of fun. The last six years I had volunteered to work so others could go. “I thought you were going to tell me about it only if I told you about our weekend plans.”
