“I don’t want to be a dick, but I’ve heard a lot of shit out of girl’s mouths and nothing has ever turned me on like that.” I push my hip into her, knowing she feels my erection the minute her lips turn into a grin.
“You want to stay the night?”
“Hoping you’d ask me since the minute I came through the door.”
“Is that a yes?”
I don’t answer but pick her up and walk to her room. Once I get there, something is different. The furniture is the same, but all her shit is re-arranged, and a TV sits in the middle of her dresser.
“I noticed that you like the TV on when you sleep. I put that in here last night, in case you stayed over again.”
My heart hammers in my chest as I stare longingly at the beauty in my arms. The simple statement just changed everything. Finn is right; she makes me smile- a real smile, too, one that reaches down deep and releases the devastation and disaster I’ve faced. A feeling that goes with me everywhere and her observation that I needed the distraction one night, made her try to help me.
“I appreciate that, babe, really, and it’s true I like the noise, but somehow, with you in this room, I slept better than ever with your shallow breathing at my throat. I could feel every breath you took. So the TV is an awesome gesture, but you don’t have to change anything for me.”
“Is it too much?”
“No, it’s perfect, but we’ll compromise. TV until you’re out, then I’ll turn it off.”
She melts into me and hugs tight. “Thank you for tonight. I know my family is a bit wild, but Aunt Chloe loved you.”
“I had a great time. Now, we wait. I’ll give it two days tops before my mom calls to schedule a dinner.”
She tenses.
“Don’t clam up now. Tonight we made plans to travel together, Cruz announced I was your boyfriend, and I had my first threesome conversation with a woman over forty. It’s official.”
“What’s official?”
“We’re a couple. Get used to it, babe, because I already am.”
“Really?” She steps back and looks at me with a goofy grin.
“Yeah, really, and all I want to do is kiss you again.”
“Just kiss me?”
“Don’t tease. I’m holding my self-control here. Only so much I can take.”
“Why are you holding back? You know I like you. We have the house to ourselves—”
“Because I want all of you— every morsel that makes you. I’m not a sensitive or sentimental guy, but with you, I’m different. There are things I want to know before we have sex. This has never been casual for me, and for once in my life, I want to get to know you before I claim every inch of your body. You have deep dark secrets you aren’t ready to share, and I’m willing to wait. You’re worth it.”
Her eyes turn a deep shade of blue, burning with desire. Heat pours off her body. Passion and sexual tension flow between us. She swallows hard and then licks her lips slowly, teasing me.
“Tomorrow, we’ll talk.”
Chapter 12
Initiation into the Asylum
Robbie
I watch Ember flutter around the kitchen in her skimpy tank and loose pajama pants, and tamper the urge to drag her back to bed. True to the other two times we slept together, she fell asleep on my chest for about five minutes before her body took over. I was able to keep my leg elevated, but her hands, arms, and legs flailed until she finally settled, with her body in a human ‘x’. The one time she did turn into me, her faint voice whispered “Robbie” Otherwise, she slept like a fucking log.
“What are you thinking about?” She lays a plate in front of me.
“You. Seems you take up most of my thoughts lately.” I look at her with her hair piled on top of her head and face fresh of make up. She looks like an angel.
