Aunt Lori winked—because of course she would—and closed the door behind her. Once we were alone, Emmy laughed and laughed, until tears streamed down her face.
I grunted. “I don’t see what’s so fucking funny. Half my family just saw me naked with you in the bed. And given your I’ve-been-fucked-good hair, they know what we were up to.”
She smiled up at me and cupped my cheek. “But it is funny, when you think about it, though. We’ll never forget this morning, for so many reasons.”
Emmy kissed me, and I sighed, the contact erasing some of my irritation. “True. But we’d better get ready, or they might come back.”
She sat up, placed a hand on my chest, and nodded. “At least you’re more relaxed to face the day now.”
I cupped her breast and played with her half-hard nipple. “Yes, I’ll need you around all the time to help with my stress. A few times a day should do the trick.”
She laughed. “Perhaps. But for now, we can’t put off talking about the future.” She stood and offered her hand. “We’ll start today as we mean to go on—fighting together. Okay?”
Her words eased the worry I’d had in my heart. I took her hand. “Okay.”
She tugged, and I got out of bed. I helped her shower too. Being the good boyfriend, I soaped her up and made sure she was clean everywhere. In the end, I even used my tongue between her thighs too.
But all too soon, we stepped out of the room and went to face the real world.

Emilia
Katie:So you and West are officially a thing! We should throw a sex-toy celebration party.
Amber:It’s not a bachelorette party.
Katie:Yet.
Me:Um, are you planning my imaginary wedding already?
Katie:Oh, it’ll happen. I have a feeling.
Abby:Like the feeling you had about you and that motorcycle gang leader last summer?
Katie:Hey, he was hot. And we did hook up. But sadly, he needs to be free…
Me:More like he wanted sex and nothing else.
Katie:Still, my feelings have been right before. Cheryl married Michael from the garage repair shop.
Amber:They started dating when they were fourteen. It’s hardly a feeling.
Katie:Stop trying to harsh my optimism. West and Emmy will work out. I know it.
Me:Um, thanks, I guess? But maybe hold off on the sex-toy party.
Katie:Why? Are you into kinky stuff? I won’t judge.
Me:Help.
Abby:Let’s focus on my niece, nephew, Zack, and Zane’s upcoming birthdays for now.
Katie:Fine. But I want to help with the party planning.
Me:Of course, with veto powers.
Katie: I’ll take what I can get.
