Page 82 of Drew
What. The. Fuck?
Did she just scream that for the entire arena to hear?
One look at Sydney, and I know I wasn’t hearing things. We lose any composure we’d been holding in and burst out laughing so hard, we’re gasping for air before forcing ourselves to stop. I’ve heard Drew tell some crazy stories, but this seriously takes the cake. How complete strangers can have such a reaction to him is beyond me.
The girls in front of us both glance in our direction. When their eyes bug out as if we’ve lost minds, Syd and I only laugh harder. Yeah, Drew’s sexy and hot as hell, but come on, people. Get a life already. He’s not God’s gift to all womankind. He’s just a man, well, my man… and if I have anything to do with it, they won’t stand a chance with him.
Thankfully, the game starts, and my attention is quickly focused on Drew. We score right off the bat. But Utah comes back with a vengeance and scores a three-pointer.
Holy shit. What a shot!
I don’t care which team you’re rooting for, it was an impressive shot. I just wish it had been our boys to make it. I look to Sydney, whose eyes are wide, and she assures me, “It’s okay. Only the first three points. We can do this!”
Within the first five minutes, CRU hits its stride, and they are on fire throughout the game. They outmatch Utah at every turn. We make some amazing defensive plays, which help us take an early lead and hold it through halftime. There’s a point in the second half where Utah has a great run. Sydney and I are on our feet screaming with the rest of the fans, but CRU pulls ahead and finishes off with a win.
Whew. I’m exhausted, and I haven’t stepped foot on the court.
As I look to Drew, I can clearly see sweat dripping off him. His face is flushed but the grin that splits his face in half is infectious. My smile matches his as he shakes hands with the opposing team. When his teammates congratulate each other with fist bumps and chest bumps, I can’t help but wonder if those hurt.
Eventually, Sydney and I make our way out of the arena, and I lose sight of Drew. As much as I’d like to wait for him, I fully agree with his plan. It’s easier for him to find me when it’s over. He’s been called into a press conference and most importantly, must shower before coming to see me. Don’t get me wrong. I love Drew sweaty, but I prefer to be the one that helps create it.
I rush to the door when I hear Drew knock a little over an hour later. Drew takes my breath away when he pulls me to him and kisses the living shit out of me. He smells sexy as hell, and my lips naturally part to let him in. His low growl sets my nerves on fire, and I want to climb him like a tree. As if he can read my mind, he lifts me off the floor, and I easily drape my legs around his hips.
Maybe it’s the effect of pulling off a big win or the fact that we haven’t seen one another in almost a week, but it feels like Drew can’t get enough of me. And there’s no way I’m denying this man anything. He steps into my apartment, and I think I hear the door close, but do I even care? All that matters is being in his arms.
One hand grips my ass as the other guides our kiss from the base of my neck. Holy fuck. If he keeps this up, I’m going to come from this kiss alone. I think we’re moving, but I’m too consumed by all that is Drew to notice. I vaguely hear the click of a door, and I feel Drew lay me on my bed, never breaking our kiss.
I let go of his hips and quickly push my way up the bed, to make room for the both of us. Not wanting there to be anything between us, I quickly grab at the hem of his shirt, and he takes the hint to pull it over his head with one hand, in the sexy way that men do.
While he does that, I sit up, ripping the shirt I’m wearing over my head. Like a magnet drawn to metal, Drew quickly descends over my body, peppering kisses along the way. He starts at my belly button, licking and sucking his way up my rib cage.
God, that feels amazing. My nipples harden, and my hips naturally rise to meet his. In one fluid swoop, he has my bra undone and sighs heavily in appreciation when my boobs are freed. His cool breath creates a breeze across my nipples. If he’s not careful, they’ll cut steel.
Damn, they’re hard. I need relief.
“Drew,” I practically pant out. “Need you…”
“I’m right here, Angel.” Drew’s sexy voice reverberates up my spine, making me desperate. He kisses up my collarbone and along my jawline until he finds my lips again, rendering me speechless.
After all too short of time, he pulls back, nearly breathless. We stare at one another for an immeasurable moment. His large hand caresses the side of my face, brushing my hair back.
“Hi,” I whisper, and his dimple pops, making butterflies swarm in my stomach.
Drew’s stare is intense, and I’ve never felt more connected to him as I do in this moment. He closes the distance between our lips and kisses me with more emotion than I can even describe. When he pulls back, his words take my breath away.
“I love you, Abby.” He gives me a brief peck then pulls back to look me square in the eyes again. My heart races, and more emotions than I can contain flow through me. “I love you more than I’ve loved anyone,” he whispers, then he closes his eyes to lean his forehead on mine.
Words. Abby. You need words. I think to myself. In this moment, I know without a doubt, I love Drew more than anything as well. But I’m so filled with emotion, it takes me a breath to remember how to speak.
When I finally find my voice, I reach up and caress his beautiful face. When he opens his eyes, I lock mine onto his, so he knows how I feel.
“I love you, too, Drew.”
Drew’s grin lights up the room. He leans down to kiss me senseless once again. Before I know it, he’s removed what’s left of my clothes. He’s in no hurry as he worships every inch of my body. He takes me higher than I could ever imagine. First time in my life, I find what it means to make love to someone.
