“I’m okay. Thank you though. Did Sadie say how much longer it will be until the cake is cut? I’m starving.”
I wasn’t going to mention that she requested an additional plate of food when dinner was served and had eaten both before most people finished their first.
“I did. And I think soon.”
“Good.”
“How are you feeling?” I asked, my eyes darting down to her stomach. Over the last two weeks, her stomach had become more pronounced. She liked to say it appeared less like she’d eaten too many hamburgers and more like a baby was there. Next week, we’d find out the baby’s gender, and Kelsey was sure it was a boy. My mom, on the other hand, was certain she was carrying a girl.
“Good. Hungry, of course.” She giggled.
“Of course. I mentioned to Sadie she should push things along.”
True to my word, the venue’s event planner announced that the happy couple would be cutting the cake followed by a few speeches by their families. When slices of the decadent raspberry-filled dessert made their rounds, I made sure to not so subtly slide my plate toward Kelsey. Her eyes glazed over in utter delight as Nash did the same.
“Y’all spoil me,” she said around a mouthful of frosting.
“As we should,” he reminded her before turning back to Marisol.
The speeches were short and sweet with very few dry eyes in the house. Colton’s words had been the ones that did everyone in. A lot of phrases about love and family and how he wished them years of happiness together. He had been in the foster system and learned he had a half-sister only six years ago, when she sought him out.
Once the speeches commenced, Sadie danced with her brother while Jacob danced with his mom. Colton twirled his sister across the dance floor, her second reception dress eddying around her like flower petals.
I had a quick flashback of my younger sisters asking me to spin them across the floor of the kitchen while they paraded around in their princess dresses. A smile grew along my lips as the memory unlocked.
“Hey, you look happy,” Kelsey said as she leaned toward me.
Our eyes locked, and I realized how truly happy I was. “I am.” Just then, the band directed everyone out to the dance floor to join the couples. “Dance with me?”
Kelsey’s gaze darted around the table, and while I knew Rory wasn’t near us at the moment, I also didn’t care if she saw. I was tired of hiding how I felt about this woman, and it was time I put on my big-boy britches, as my mother liked to say. If Rory was upset, she’d have to get over it, because I loved her best friend too much to keep us a secret.
I stood and held out my hand for Kelsey, and after a slight hesitation, she placed her smaller one in mine.
“Let’s go show them how it’s done,” I joked as we made it to the center of the floor next to Autumn and Colton. With a delicate hold, I spun Kelsey outward, then rolled her into my arms until her back pressed against my chest, then did it againuntil I tugged her to me and held her face-to-face. My hand flexed against her waist, immediately recognizing the familiar dip of her body. In my left hand, her fingers intertwined with mine as her other hand wrapped around the back of my neck.
“I love you, baby,” I murmured just loud enough for her to hear over the music.
Her sparkling smile made my chest explode like fireworks on the Fourth of July.
“I love you too.”
Kelsey and I continued to spin around the dance floor, neither of us noticing the others around us.
The song ended, and I kept Kelsey’s hand in mine, pulling her toward the side door to step into a hallway that led to the restrooms. I’d gone too long without putting my mouth on her. Hell, I was ready to leave the wedding and head back to my rental.
“Where are we going?” Kelsey asked on a laugh.
Spinning around, I pulled her against me and leaned forward to whisper in her ear. “I want to taste you, baby, and maybe if we can find a nice, dark spot, I can slide my cock between your legs and fuck you. Imagine how many people could walk by and see you coming all over my dick.”
“Mm… Andrew,” she moaned, and I knew if I slipped my hand between her legs, I’d find her drenched. My cock was already tenting the front of my suit pants.
With urgency, we hurried toward the kitchen area, where I planned to sneak out through the employee entrance. That was one of the perks for being an owner of the venue.
We broke through the door and stepped into the cool night air, the only illumination coming from the light by the door, the few lanterns set up around a gravel walking area, and the moon. Kelsey jerked my head down to hers and kissed me like her life depended on it.
Instinctively, I reached down for her ass and hoisted her against me. Her long dress kept her from wrapping her legs around my waist, but that was probably a good thing until I could find a more hidden spot for us. There were enough people milling around outside who were about to get more than they bargained for. Yet, I didn’t care; I only had eyes for Kelsey as she drove her fingers into my hair, her nails scraping along my scalp as her tongue entered my mouth. Blindly, I began moving us away from the building and toward the walking path.
“What’s going on here?” a familiar voice said, and Kelsey stiffened in my arms before I slowly lowered her to her feet.
