She keens delightfully when I press against her clit, her pussy shaking with the intensity of her trying to push into me.

Everything spins out of focus. We fuck, hard and fast, right there against the wall beside her front door. She never turns on a light and I never look around. It’s just her legs wrapped around me, my arms holding her tight against me as she wiggles and twists and rides my cock.

When she comes, her pussy tightening and her teeth clenching down hard on my shoulder, I explode.

The come down is harder than I expect. When she slides off of me, her hands flying out to grab purchase on my arms to steady herself, my whole body goes cold with fear.

“David.”

My hands shake as I fix my pants. My buckle is hard to figure out. Laura’s hand reaches out, and the tips of her fingers press lightly against my knuckles.

“David, I’m?—”

“Don’t,” I say softly. I cover her hand with mine and offer her a smile. It feels too tight, but it’s all I’ve got. “I’m okay.”

“Are we?”

When I look at her, Laura looks young. It makes my heart hurt and my head spin. I want to erase the insecurity I read so clearly on her face, but this situation makes it damn near impossible.

I nod. “We’re okay, I promise.”

She nods. She watches me leave, and I feel her eyes the whole way.

Even when I’m in the car, even when I’m back home, all alone in the house that feels too big half of the time, I feel her eyes on me.

CHAPTER 15

Laura

My knees keep tapping against the inside of the table, and both my brother and my boss are glaring at me.

Technically, right now, my boss is my boyfriend, which is both a lie and not a lie, depending on the definition. My knees hit the table harder.

“Are you nervous?” Jessi asks, smiling at me.

She tears a piece of bread apart over the small, delicate plate. Lewis has brought me to a few nice restaurants since he moved past paying student loans and into having disposable income, but this is definitely the nicest place I’ve ever been. Jessi and David look so at peace here, so at ease. Even Lewis is faking it well. I’m positive everyone can tell that I’m not meant to be sitting in a chair this luxurious.

I haven’t reached for the bread yet. I can’t bring myself to reach across the table when it’s as likely that I’ll knock over a candle as I will successfully reach the bread.

“I’m… fine,” I say. It’s a beat too late, and I have to put my hands on my knees to keep them still. Still, she smiles graciously. Jessi is definitely the person handling this situation the best.

Jessi looks between Lewis and David. I can’t tell what she’s trying to get across but Lewis turns to me with a smile that I recognize from many Christmas dinners.

Fake pleasantries, it is.

“How are you liking work?” he asks, eyes sliding over to David. “Besides… the obvious.”

I wince. Everything, everything, everything is so very awkward.

David puts a piece of bread on my plate. It makes me feel a bit better about this whole thing.

“I’m enjoying it,” I say, tearing at the bread. “It’s a lot harder than my internship, but that’s what I was hoping.”

“Yeah, you breezed by that,” Lewis comments offhandedly.

I smile. David looks over at me curiously.

“It’s…” I take a bite of bread to buy myself a moment. I’m fighting a blush now that David is looking at me, too. “It’s rewarding. The people I’m working with are great?—”
