“Tessa, I?—”

“If he catches us, I’ll take full responsibility. I’ll tell him I insisted on you keeping me company.” I tuck my hair behind my ear. “Besides, it’s not like we’re doing anything wrong. We’re just sitting and talking.”

Sean wets his lips. “I don’t know if I can just sit and talk with you.”

A warm feeling sparkles in my chest. “Well, even if we were to do more than talk, that wouldn’t be wrong, would it? We’re both consenting adults.”

“Tessa,” he says, and when he says my name this time, it sounds so pained. The look on his face is so pained, too. God. Is this really the effect I have on him? Is this how all men are? I wish I knew.

But I’m also grateful that I’ve never been with anyone before this moment.

“You can kiss me, you know,” I whisper. “I’d like that.”

Sean rubs a hand over his jaw, rubbing back and forth, his eyes equally full of desire and restraint. When, at last, he leans in, I let my eyes gently close. The kiss he plants on my lips is soft and slow.

And that sparkle? His kiss makes it twice as bright. I’m shimmering all over.

His lips pull away for a moment, then return to mine. I smile into our second kiss and place a hand gently on his chest, his muscles hard and firm beneath my touch. As our lips part and our tongues meet, Sean slides a hand over my thigh and gives it a squeeze.

I’m aching so much for him, but this is all so new for me and I don’t know what I’m doing. And I don’t know whether we’re moving too fast if we do more than this. What if it’s our only chance, though? What if this is our only night together, and I never see him after tonight?

The thought crushes my heart. It doesn’t make any sense, feeling so taken with him already, yet it also doesn’t feel like anything other than this could have happened. This is fate. It has to be.

“Touch me, Sean,” I whisper, tilting my forehead against his.

His fingers slide up over my pajamas between my legs. The ache there is unbearable, and when he finally touches me, I let out a moan.

“Quiet,” Sean warns me, circling his fingers over the fabric. “Fuck, you’re so wet I can feel it.”

“So feel it.”

He slips his hand into my panties and finds my clit. “Christ, Tessa. You’re going to make me come in my pants.”

“I want you to come inside me.”

“Don’t say that. Jesus, please don’t say that.”

“But it’s what I want.” I moan again as he rubs my clit harder. “Oh, God. That feels so good.”

His fingers increase their pace, my wetness fully coating them. “Come for me.”

“I’m close.”

“That’s it. Come for me, sweetie.”

“Sean,” I moan. My hand clenches his shirt as an orgasm sears through me. My clit pulses against Sean’s fingers, and I hear him curse under his breath as the pleasure washes over me. Then his arms are around me, and he’s holding me so tightly and so tenderly and I hope he never has to let me go.

SEAN

Wow. Damn. I guess this is what falling in love feels like.

I keep my arms around Tessa as she nestles close against me, our bodies fitting together perfectly. My chest is full of intense feelings for her and my mind can’t stop trying to figure out how we’re going to make this work. Will she come live with me? Will her dad put up a fight? I’m excited for our future together, but the uncertainty of it scares the hell out of me, too.

“I feel so close to you, Sean,” Tessa says quietly, nuzzling her head against my chest. “I don’t know how to explain it, but it feels like I’ve known you so much longer than I have.”

I smile. “I know what you mean.”
