Henry joins Penelope by her side, and together they come toward me, stopping at the foot of the stairs. She tilts her head back, a smile playing on her lips. “Waiting on me?”
“I was actually going out for a run.”
Her brows quirk up in surprise. “At this hour?”
I shrug. “I was bored in the apartment, and somebody else was busy.”
Penelope shoots me an apologetic smile. “Sorry. Jade took my phone, and then we started talking, and time just got away from me, so I forgot to reply.”
“You didn’t reply?”
“No. Why?”
“Then I guess Jade did.”
“What—” She pulls out her phone and taps on the screen a few times, listening intently until she finds what she needs. “That— ugh, she’ll hear from me tomorrow.”
“Well, at least I knew you weren’t ignoring me. Did you guys have fun?”
Penelope makes a grimace as she starts climbing the steps. “Define fun.”
“I don’t know.” I shrug. “What do girls do for fun?”
“I guess it depends on who you ask. But Jade’s definition of fun is grilling me about us.”
“Us, huh?”
She tucks a strand of her hair behind her ear. “Well, yeah. Grace asked how you were doing, which led to a discussion of how Jade saw you walking Henry shirtless, which then led to the question ofwhyyou were shirtless in the first place.” She props her arm on her hip. “Any explanation for that one? Because if I remember correctly yo—”
Slipping my hand around her waist, I pull her to me. Penelope sucks in a breath, but before she can finish, my mouth captures hers.
Fuck, she tastes sweet.
Like the most delicious of desserts, and I can’t get enough of it.
I can’t get enough of her.
I gently nibble at her lip, licking and sucking. Penelope lets out the sweetest sigh, the sound going straight to my dick. Her fingers grip my shirt tighter, pulling me toward her and deepening the kiss.
So much for keeping my cool.
I know I should slow down, but I also know this was inevitable. I couldn’t have touched her any less than I could have stopped breathing.
One time.
I had her just one time, and I was desperate for more.
More of those sweet sighs. More of her hands on my body. More of her.
Anything that she’d give me.
Somebody laughs, snapping me out of it and reminding me we’re still standing on our front porch. Breaking the kiss, I rub the small of her back as I watch her blink her eyes open.
“Let’s go inside.”
“I thought you were going for a run.”
I was, wasn’t I?
