“You know you’re a possessive idiot.”

I couldn’t keep the grin off my face at herfight.

“Only for you, little bit.” She harrumphedand turned from me to gaze out the window.

When we got home I went around the car,opened the door, and picked her up again, this time she laughed andmy heart soared at the light carefree sound. Once in the house, Iwent to my room and placed her on the bed and then I stripped.

Her laughter turned into a gasp. She knelt onmy bed and crawled closer to me.

“Stephan, is it real?”

The fingers sticking out from her cast cameup and gingerly traced the heart and the key made with her name andsat ready to unlock my heart. “Of course it’s real.”

Tears rolled down her cheek and she sobbed.Shit, I’d hurt her. Crap.

“You’re crazy,” she hiccupped out. “Youtattooed my name on your chest as a key to your heart. Are youinsane?”

I sighed in relief when I realized she wasn’tcrying because I hurt her. “I thought it was a good present. A wayto show you how I feel. To show you you’re it for me. I will neverhurt you again. I love you more than you could ever imagine.”

“Oh, Stephan,” she sobbed.

“Don’t cry. I didn’t do it to make you cry. Iwant you to smile. I want the light back in your eyes. I want youbaking cupcakes and slices and dancing around the kitchen singingwith your amazing voice. I want you with your fight back. I wantyou.”

“Stephan,” Jade groaned on a breathlesswhisper. She stood and came to the edge of the bed yanking me toher. Her mouth fused with mine and she pulled me down to the bed. Ilay down and she straddled me. “You make it so hard for me. Everytime I think I have my walls built high you not only knock it downyou demolish it.”

“I love you, little bit.”

“I don’t hate you.”

I chuckled. “Progress.”

Jade shook her head and leaned down until herlips brushed over the tattoo. “You’re full of surprises. Thank you,crazy man.” She wiggled into the covers and I followed. Jade drapedherself over me. “Good night, my crazy man.”

Smiling, I hugged Jade to me feeling like I’dwon the best prize in the universe. She just called me hers.

Jade

Distancing myself wasn’t working. The pastweek I’d tried everything, going to a different room to sleep whichdidn’t work because he was back to carrying me around when I saidno. I tried being with Cassie and my other girlfriends, again hejust invaded and they thought he was cute.Argh. Then Itried just reading and studying but the idiot would do the samebeside me, touching my leg, arm, cheek or hair every chance hecould. Then every time I saw the goddamned tattoo I went goo, goo.I couldn’t believe he got a tattoo with my name. It was an amazingdesign. The heart was on the left side of his chest just above hisnipple. It had a lock in the middle and a key set in the lock thatwas made up of my name.

Stephan touched me all the time. He touchedme before, but this last week it was like he’d up the ante. I thinkhe wanted me to crave him so I never left him. My body felt like itwas on friggin' fire. I’d been almost caught a couple of timestrying to pleasure myself to help the aching coursing through me.It’s hard to masturbate when you have one hand in a cast and theother was still tender from being shot.

I swear last night I dreamed of having anorgasm and just as I was about to get there wanker moved and joltedme awake. I was so horny I couldn’t sleep on Stephan. When I’d seenmy doctor last I’d asked for a prescription for the pill. I triedfooling myself for a while telling myself I didn’t need them. WhenI got them for myself, the first couple of days I even triedconvincing myself not to take them because I wouldn’t need them. Ihad said I would never have sex with Stephan, but deep down I knewit was bullshit. I wasn’t ready today and I may not be tomorrow,but I knew if things kept going how they were I would be ready tomake the huge step and give him me. I lay on my back staring at theceiling in the dark room.

The sun peeked through the blinds givinglight to the dark room. I didn’t want to open my eyes, but I couldsee the lighter shade of black. Soft lips trailed gentle kissesover my face and down my neck. I tilted my head up so the mouthcould have better access. Teeth tugged on the tip of my ear sendingshots of pleasure straight to my pussy. “Morning, birthdaygirl.”

Groaning, I opened my eyes. “Don’t I get tosleep in on my birthday?”

“Yes, if you were sleeping, but I know youwere awake. Come on, we have lots to do today.”

I rolled over onto my stomach and glared athim. “Aha, no way. Today is my day. So when you say ‘we’ you meanyou have lots to do. I intend to spend the day sunbathing by thepool, going to the movies, and then clubbing with my friends later.I may even come to your game.” I wouldn’t ever miss his game. Iloved watching him play football and when we had our break up itwas one of the things I really missed. This would be the first gameI’d seen in weeks.

Stephan sat up and the cover slipped downshowing his tat, I honed in on it and my heart did summersaults. Hereached over and tucked my bed hair behind my ears, he lingered atmy neck, the pads of his fingers stroking me. I shivered andclenched my thighs, my body melting at his touch. Stupid reactionto him. Stupid body for betraying me.

Stephan smirked and the damn dimples popped.“Well, if it’s what you want.” He got out of bed and I smiled athis rock hard erection. At least I had the same effect on him.

Sighing, I rolled back only to squeal whenarms slid under me and lifted me. “Hey, put me down.” As usualStephan didn’t listen, and carried me to the bathroom and got out awaterproof liner for my cast. After putting it on me, he turned thewater on and stepped under the spray. I stared stunned. I’d seenStephan naked all the time, but I’d never watched him shower.Fantasied, dreamed of it, yes, but seeing…argh, no. I watched asthe water riveted over his muscular body. His dick was stillstanding at attention and all I could do was stare.
