Page 28 of It Never Happened
We all sit around the tree, and I say, “I agree, January. I have a lot to make up for. And I want to go on record right now with an apology to you.” She looks dumbfounded as I continue. “Lief and I worked out our differences over the years, but not until I came here this week did I realize how much my absence affected everyone. Your family has been my family since we were kids, and I’m sorry for not being there when you all needed me the most.”
She’s speechless, and Courtney just watches with wide eyes.
“Well, um, thank you for that, Jack. I, um, I don’t know what to say.”
“Just say you accept my apology. And my thanks for looking after Courtney and my son when I was too stupid to do it myself.”
She looks back and forth between Courtney and I, shaking her head. “I do. Yes, I mean, and you’re welcome.”
I laugh at her. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen you without words, January.”
“I don’t think it’s ever happened before.” She laughs. “Looks like we’ve all had a chance to grow, huh?”
“Looks like.”
It’s almost midnight, and now that we know Joey is fast asleep, we’ve been wrapping the last of the presents and putting them under the tree. Santa will make his deliveries soon and hopefully sprinkle some Christmas magic on Courtney and me, and then all will be right with the world.
“Tonight was great, don't you think?”
“It was. I’m glad they were able to make it over. Tomorrow may be a different story.” She looks out the curtains, and the snow is now well past the windowpanes.
“Yeah, I don’t think Lief’s snowmobile is going anywhere tomorrow.”
She stands by the mantel and begins filling Joey’s stocking. With every present I place under the tree, I give her a pat on the ass. “Courtney, being next to you is so hard. Don’t you remember when we were kids, how we couldn’t go two minutes without touching each other? Being under this roof with you all day, and with only one wall between us last night, has been killing me. Watching you be themother to my child and love him so much has me hotter for you than that prom dress you wore.”
She laughs at my recollection. “Knock it off, Jack. I know what you’re doing.”
“What am I doing, Courtney?” I ask in a lower voice.
She gives me a bland look. “You know exactly what you are doing. You did this every day after we started dating when you were sixteen years old. I actually think that voice is what got me into the backseat of your truck to begin with.”
“I didn't know I had that effect on you at sixteen.”
“Oh please.”
“Seriously!” I guffaw. “I mean, at twenty-four I was smoother, but at thirty-two, my body knows exactly who and what it needs.”
“Jack.” Just one call of my name, and I’m ready to burst.
“Can I kiss you, Coco?”
She nods, and I know I should wait. I need to tell her everything. But one kiss first won’t hurt. I take the presents she’s holding and put them on the floor, and then I kiss her like it’s the first time. I start soft and slow, wanting her to feel every bit of the love I have for her. But it quickly progresses into more—need—because together we always burned hot for each other.
“I never thought we’d get here again.”
“Me either.”
She shrugs out of her robe, revealing her sleep set that is barely there silk. “You’ve had this on for the last hour and didn’t tell me?”
She smirks and slowly falls to her knees in front of me. “I bought it from Dress Me Up.” I watch from above as she pulls at my waistband and slides my sweats and boxers down, my cock popping out at full attention for her. “Oh,fuck.” She grasps me at my base, leaning in and kissing the tip before flicking it quickly with her tongue. I grab the mantel to steady myself and let my head fall back on my neck. “More.”
She takes me deep, creating a suction as she works me over. I run my hand through her hair, grabbing hold of her neck before letting my hand drift to the strap of her tank. She rises on her knees and lets me slide the strap down her arm, letting her tit come out for me to hold. I roll her nipple and squeeze her, her moans vibrating me as she sucks.
She pulls back and looks up at me while she slides the other strap down so that both her full tits are now out, nipples hard, waiting for me. I stand there, looking down at her while she strokes me and kisses around everywhere but where I need her mouth.
“You’re gorgeous, Coco.” I play with her large tits while she rolls my balls before taking me deep in her throat. Her mouth is wet and warm and is driving me insane. Her sounds and mine mix together, her tits shake, and I wish I could drive myself through them. I step back, needing her to release me as I step out of my sweats then pull my t-shirt over my head before I get on the floor with her. I cradle her face and kiss her, whispering how much I missed her once more.
“I never stopped loving you, Jack. I just didn't love business you.” Her words make my heart skip a beat. “I just couldn’t be the second choice.” My hands smooth over her back; I can’t stop touching her. I pull her close, the feel of her naked breasts on my chest crashing memories through my mind. “I don’t know if I can go back there, back to that place where I was alone and you were working all the time, especially now that Joey is older and knows what is happening and who is around.”
