He kisses me again, this time, not pulling away. His thumb strokes my cheek as I open for him. Our tongues play while he moves so that he’s on top of me. Once he’s there, his fingers link with mine as he holds me in place. He’s not doing the whole caveman thing. This is remarkably different from that.

He moves the sheet that was between us so that there’s no barrier between our naked bodies. I am usually not one that likes the slow and sweet, but this feels right. Every movement we make is an attempt to get even closer to the other.

I angle my hips toward Drew, trying to get him to push into me. But he hesitates.

Looking at me, he whispers, “Condom?”

The words that come out of my mouth are words that I have never said before.

Ever.

No matter how drunk I was or how horny for that matter. I have always used a condom.

“Fuck it,” I say. “We don’t need it. I had a checkup a month ago, and I have an IUD.”

As he looks at me, a fire burns in his eyes. “Are you sure? I’ve been checked too, and before you, there hasn’t been anyone for a long time. But if you want me to wear one, I will. No questions asked.”

“I’m sure.”

He looks at me as if waiting for me to change my mind. I pull him down to kiss me. That seems to be all it takes to convince him. I suck in a breath as I feel him slide inside.

I’ve fucked a lot of guys. Maybe that makes me sound slutty, but I don’t give a shit. It’s the truth. Since Aaron, it’s always been just fucking. Never more. There hasn’t been emotion or feelings behind it. But this is filled with both.

And I’m not freaked out about it.

All I want is more.

Wait until You see my Next Trick

Drew

“You sure you aren’t going to tell me where we are going?” I ask Ronnie. She’s been giving me step by step directions on where we are going and wouldn’t let me put anything in the GPS.

“Nope. Told you it’s a surprise.”

I sigh. “You’re going to pay for this later.”

Still staring at her phone, she pops her gum and says, “Don’t threaten me with a good time, pony boy.”

I look at Colton in the rearview mirror. He has his headphones on and is playing on his tablet. He doesn’t seem phased at all by the fact that he doesn’t know where we are going. He’s just happy that he got to skip school for a day.

Trying to make time pass quicker, I ask Ronnie, “How are things going at the inn? Getting some good shots?”

“I actually finished up everything yesterday. Even got the website redesigned and some new marketing materials made.”

“Geez, that was fast.”

She groans. “Yeah. I’m efficient, but I kind of shot myself in the foot. Now, I’m going to need to find something else to do.”

“Any ideas?”

“I’m thinking about doing some volunteer work around town. See if anyone needs any help with anything.”

“Really?” I ask, trying not to sound too surprised.

“Yeah. Maybe over at the animal shelter. I used to do that a lot when I was a teenager.”
