“Caleb.”
I never mentioned to him that I am afraid of heights. I inhale as I place my hands in front of me, gripping on to the rocks as I shuffle my feet. I do the same motion that Caleb did, ducking my head behind the curtain. I slip slightly and yelp. Caleb grabs onto me by the waist pulling me into him.
“I got you.” He holds me against his chest for a moment staring into my eyes before he lets go raking his fingers through his hair as he exhales quietly.
I take in the view surrounding us. We are inside the waterfall cave, but instead of it being dark, there is a large hole in the center, letting in all the natural light, green vines dangle down, and in the middle of the circle is a pool of clear blue water.
“We don’t know how this was made. But it's’ warm.”
Caleb removes his gym shorts, socks and shoes leaving him in nothing but his boxers as he dips into the water.
“You going to join me, Julia?” He quirks a brow until I have no other choice but to strip down in my bra and underwear joining him in the most romantic place I have ever been.
There is no bottom that my feet can reach so I tread water in front of him. His arms move in the water as he circles me. I turn my head to keep my eyes on him. I hold onto the edge of the rocks when I get tired of treading. He splashes me with water, I splash him back. It’s playful flirting. I don’t mind it. He grabs a hold of my waist and throws me into the water. I kick back up to the surface and suck in a breath as I smooth my hair back from my face.
“That’s not fair.” I mutter.
“What’s not fair is, you being so damn sexy without even trying. That’s not fair.”
I shoot my eyes at him. I wave him off thinking he is just being a goof ball. But when I attempt to get out of the water, he pulls me back down, holding me against his chest before tossing me once more. He laughs when I come up for air. I splash him once more before I quickly hop out.
Once Caleb gets out of the water, he joins me at the edge. The curtain of water makes you sound like you’re speaking into a fan if you are close enough. I look around the cave once more, admiring the peacefulness surrounding us.
“How did you find this place?”
He smiles and then nudges me, “Ask me something else.”
I want to question him as to why, but when he looks down at his lap, I can tell it’s again something he doesn’t want to open up about.
“Sorry.”
He turns his body to face me, sitting Criss cross as he leans his arms behind him.
“Why are you sorry?”
“Because you had to endure a pain that has made you never want love again, something us humans crave more than anything. Because it makes it hard for me not to kiss you again, when we both have cracks that need to be fixed.”
He scoots closer to me. His hand brushes against my cheek, its warm and I lean into his palm.
“What about you? How did you feel when you found out your husband had cheated on you?”
His question hits me in the gut. I was not expecting that. He went straight for the kill the vibe shot.
“I was embarrassed. I was on live television when the tweets started rolling in, telling us to look at a post. It was of him kissing her. I didn’t find out until I got home, that he was fucking her in my bed. I left the house that night and didn’t come back until the day I took all my belongings. I felt betrayed, you make vows with someone to love them for the rest of your lives, but you don’t hurt the people you love. I may not be 100% over it, it takes time, like any loss. That was seven years of my life, wasted. I think back now, all the men I could have fucked but because I am a nice person I could never. Now I can fuck whoever I want but…”
I can’t finish that sentence. The way he is looking at me right now has my heart pounding. The mere mention of the word fuck has lust twinkling in his eyes as he sits up.
“Julia.”
He doesn’t need to say anything else. My body can sense what he wants.
“I know he doesn’t deserve to love me. I remember what you said before you kissed me.” I bite my lip as I remember.
“I can’t stop thinking about your lips against mine.” He stares at my lips as he talks in a slower pace and my skin hums.
The need to make a move comes over me. I lean forward grabbing the back of his head pulling him into me and kiss him. I give him a slow, lip-smacking kiss. It takes my breath away at the connection I feel when I touch him. My whole body is on fire and my heart is pounding. I can feel a connection to him that I have never felt before.
His hands cup my cheeks, and he pulls me in closer. We rise to our knees and kissing each other harder as I part my lips to allow him more access. His tongue dips into my mouth and I moan. I suck on his tongue which makes him pull me on top of his lap. My legs wrap around his. His cock is hard against me. I want to grind so bad, but I stop myself.
