He fucked her hard against the wall, driving his cock into her until they were both breathless.

When he knew he wasn’t going to be able to last much longer, he adjusted his hold on her hips and dipped his thumb above where they were joined.

Less than thirty seconds later, she was going off like a rocket. Her fingers scrapped his scalp to the point of pain as her climax racked her body.

Jesse felt his release surge a moment before it dawned on him he’d forgotten a condom.

“Fuck!”

He tried to separate them enough to pull out of her, but she was holding on to him. His orgasm ended up coating her, the wall, and the floor.

Cassie lowered her legs to the floor and he rested his forehead on her shoulder, trying to catch his breath. How could he have been so irresponsible? She wasn’t on birth control. He’d planned on broaching the subject this weekend.

His hands tightened on her hips and released.

“Are you okay?” she asked.

Jesse laughed without humor. “I think I should be the one asking you that question.” He lifted his head to meet her gaze. “I forgot to use a condom.”

“Oh.” It was only then she seemed to realize his cum was streaming down her leg.

He waited for her to say more, but she didn’t. “Let’s get cleaned up, and we should talk.”

Leading her into the bathroom, he removed a washcloth from the cabinet and wet it with warm water. He kneeled in front of her and cleaned the remnants of their lovemaking from her legs and pussy. “I left your bag on the couch. Why don’t you take it into the bedroom and get yourself settled. I’ll be in as soon as I get things cleaned up.”

She nodded and left him to his task.

Jesse had no idea what he was going to say. He’d lost his head, which had never happened with a woman before. This was new territory for him. He was nervous, but more for her reaction than anything else.

With the last of the mess removed from the hall, he washed his hands, then went to find Cassie. It was time to face the consequences of his actions. Whatever they may be.

Cassie was already in bed when he walked into the room. The covers were pulled up to her neck, but she turned to look at him when he entered.

He sat on the edge of the bed next to her. “We should talk about what happened.”

“Okay.” She paused. “I’m not upset.”

That surprised him. “You’re not?”

She shook her head. “No.”

“Why not? You should be. I screwed up. It’s my job to protect you and I didn’t.”

“I’m not ready for a baby right now, but I can’t be mad at you without being mad at myself.”

He furrowed his brow, confused. “That makes no sense.”

“I could have told you to stop, but it didn’t even cross my mind. All I could think about was how much I wanted you.”

“But—”

Cassie scooted closer to him, the blanket she’d had covering her falling to her waist, revealing she’d removed the bra she’d been wearing. Her nipples stood proud on breasts he wanted to taste. Despite having been inside her less than twenty minutes ago, he felt his body responding.

She placed a finger on his lips. “There’s two of us in this relationship. I can always say no. Or use my safeword.” She gave him a little smile, referencing that aspect of their relationship.

He removed her finger from his lips and turned her palm over to kiss it. That feeling of warmth deep in his chest was back, making him want to keep her with him forever.

Instead of going down that road of thought, he refocused the conversation on the topic at hand. “I think you should look into birth control. As much as I’d like to assure you something like that will never happen again, I lose all common sense when it comes to you sometimes.”
