Page 6 of Only Ever Yours

When I get to the top of the stairs, it's dark, and I’m still a little off balance. As I'm fumbling around trying to find a light switch, I bump into a hard body.

I yelp, “What the hell? You scared me!” I say, grabbing onto him for comfort.

I feel his body shaking from laughter. “Just me, Peachy.” Then he presses his lips to the top of my head.

His strong arms wrapped around me, bring back all the emotions I was feeling earlier. Then he starts walking backward, leading me into the bedroom. I’m a mess, falling into his warmth anytime he lets me. He spins us, so the back of my legs hit the mattress, just holding me. I’m going out of my mind waiting for him to make a move. My clit throbs, begging to be touched from his words earlier, and I can’t take it anymore. I rise up on my toes and press my lips onto his.

He lets me.

It’sslow and sensual at first. He softly teases my lips, gently nipping mine, sending a shiver of desire straight to my core. I moan into his mouth, loving the things he makes me feel. His tongue slips into my mouth gently, then takes control, our kiss quickly turning heated.

Apparently, he changed clothes when he came up, because I feel him harden through the soft material of his sweats. His hand slides down to my silk-covered ass, squeezing when he lifts me onto the bed. He groans, pulling his lips away from mine just far enough to see my eyes, placing both of his hands on my cheeks.

What the hell?

He quietly stares at me, clearly at war with himself.

His teeth drag across his bottom lip. “Go to bed, Peachy.” His husky voice cuts through me, shattering any hope I had of him and me. He glides his thumb over my cheek, then down across my lips.

He's got to be fucking kidding me right now.

“I’m so confused right now… you bring me to your house, kiss me like you’re about to fuck me, then tell me to go to bed?”

He's laughing. He's fucking laughing.

How did this change direction so quickly?

“You know what, I’m fucking leaving…” I say too loud and push him away, because he totally played me, and my backstabbing pussy betrayed me too.I don’t know who I’m more pissed at.

What the fuck was I thinking, getting involved with him again? Did I not learn my lesson the last two times he fucked around with me?

I stand, and he holds his hands up defensively.

“Ellie, you’re not leaving. I shouldn’t have kissed you and led you on, but I’m also not sorry I did it. As much as I would like to… I’m not fucking you when you’re dating someone else. You would hate me in the morning, even more than you already do. Stay here tonight. I will take you home in the morning. I put a t-shirt on the bed for you to sleep in...” He turns and heads to the door, stopping right before he leaves. “Night, Peachy,” he says, winking, then walks out of the room, closing the door behind him.

Well, fuck him too.

Jaydon

I woke up to find the spare bed that Ellie slept in last night…empty.

Fuck.

I even got up a little earlier than normal, hoping to make her breakfast and talk about what happened between us last night. Try to make sense of it all, of us.

But it’s only 5:30 a.m., so she must have snuck out last night or early morning before sunrise.

I know she stayed—at least for a while. The bed’s perfectly made, even the throw pillows my sister insisted I buy are perfectly placed. However, I don’t see the t-shirt or boxers I left for her to wear.Hmm.

I’m sure she’s pissed at me, like normal. But I still need to make sure she’s safe. So, I send her a quick text.

Jaydon:Hey, just checking to make sure you made it home safely.

She responds instantly.

Peachy:You don’t need to check on me.

That’s all she says, so I push a little more. I can tell she’s pissed, but I don’t give a fuck. I love messing with her.
