I needed it.

She situated herself at the tip, a steadying hand on my chest and one on the window. Then she carefully sank down.

Each inch she covered me robbed me of more air. I hadn’t had sex in well over a year, and this was intense. Staggering. Like I had zero control and wanted to randomly thrust until all the delirious pressure was gone.

But I didn’t. She deserved better than a man who couldn’t keep his shit together.

An eternity, but really only a second later, she was seated on me. I was inside her, and she was in my arms.

“Are you sure you’re okay?”

I gazed into the shadows covering her face and gathered her closer to me. I might be spinning into an abyss or willingly flinging myself in if it meant I was inside her, but yes. I was fine. “Let me show you.”

I rolled my hips up, and she went liquid in my arms. “Cody. So good,” she moaned.

The confines of the pickup made it hard to move, but we didn’t need much space. My world was orienting itself, centering on her. I was crazy about this girl.

And now that I had her, I wasn’t going to waste our time together. “I’m going to make you come again.”

I could make out her sexy grin in the dark. “Are you doing it to impress me?”

“No—that would be showing you we can finish the rest of the pack of condoms before we go back to the house.”

Her throaty laughs went straight to my dick. I slid my hand between us and found her still-swollen clit.

“Oh, god, Cody,” she groaned.

A swell of energy shot down my spine, tightening my balls. “Tova.” I clenched my teeth and buried my face in her neck, continuing to drive into her, meeting her downward motion with a tight thrust that hit the right spot.

“Cody.” She started chanting my name again. She was close, and I teetered on the edge.

I lightly nipped the skin at the base of her throat, and she jerked, heat blooming between us as the climax hit.

Fucking finally. I let go. My release shot out and I held her, like the top was going to blow off the pickup and carry us away. Desire filled my senses, and all I knew was the ecstasy flooding my body and the warm woman in my arms who was the cause of it.

She collapsed on top of me, and I sagged into the seat. Only our heavy breathing filled the air once again.

“Are you good at everything you do?” She traced a circle on my chest. I couldn’t wait to be with her when we could stretch out and be entirely undressed.

“It takes practice. Like I said, there are two more condoms.”

Tova

We were on the front porch. My legs were rubbery like I’d been doing a kick line all afternoon, but the rest of me was as relaxed as if I’d spent a week at an all-inclusive spa.

The frogs were as loud as the other night, and the sky was just as dark as when we’d left the pasture. Cody unlocked the front door of his house, but he didn’t open it. The porch light danced across his finger-combed hair. It’d been my fingers doing the dragging through those soft strands.

“To say I enjoyed tonight is an understatement.” He hesitated.

I put my hand on his strong forearm. My skin tingled from head to toe, and lingering aftershocks zinged through my core, reminding me that it agreed with his statement one thousand percent and would like to know when we could do it again. But once we left the pasture, we were back to our agreement to wait. “I understand, Cody. We’re going inside and going to sleep in separate beds, and it’s not going to change how I feel about what we’re doing.”

He brushed a tangled lock of my hair behind my ear. “You’re pretty special, you know that?”

He made me feel special in a way I’d never experienced. I’d never had the sense of being treasured by someone like him. Possessed, yes, and I had ignored the prickles of unease from those exes. But not revered. Cody acted like he was in awe of me. We were standing on the porch of a home he’d lived in with his wife and kids, and his feelings weren’t as sorted and neat as he wanted them, but he was taking the time to make sure I was okay, that I understood it wasn’t me who was the issue.

He cupped the back of my neck and brought his head down. The kiss started tender and grew demanding. Only the frogs and the crickets witnessed the electricity flowing between us, growing until we generated our own lightning storm.
