“He will.”

With a smile splitting my face, I hum and roll my hips against Josh’s growing erection. Nestled between my cheeks, it’s achingly close to my pussy. His hot, groaning response against my neck and slight thrust of his hips are delicious as he slides just a little closer to what I want. Him.

I don’t want to wait any longer to try.

I could have died yesterday without trying to be with him or to be a better mom. A better friend. A better sister.

Josh gave me a second chance.

He gave me sleep and companionship.

Friendship and… love.

I want this. I want to try for him and for me.

If he wants it too.

When I reach back, grab his bare ass, and urge him forward to give him the green light, Josh trembles.

“Babe?” he croaks in wonder and clears his throat.

“Go on.”

“Jade. I…” Josh rests his forehead against the back of my head. “Fuck. Are you sure?”

Before I change my mind, I pat his hand on my stomach. “Yes. If you are.”

“Fuck.”

“Go on. I want this. I want you.”

“Fuck. I… Fuck…” As Josh’s shock wears off, there’s a moment where it’s just us tangled in bed together. A calmness settles in my chest and spreads to my fingertips as I close my eyes and breathe. This is what I need.

Him.

This.

Us.

Bending my top knee, Josh glides his cock through my wetness and rubs his head around my entrance, testing it, testing me. His hot breath bathes my neck in sharp pants, as he thrusts just enough to slip a fraction inside. My walls squeeze around him, hugging his thickness, wanting it.

“Babe,” he rasps and kisses me just once, on the side of my neck.

I run my hand down the side of his strong, hairy leg. “Go on.”

“Fuck.” Sinking his teeth into my shoulder, Josh drives all the way in, then stills. A bottomless groan of pleasure vibrates through our connection as he shudders and his cock jerks.

I wait for regret to come.

For the wrongness.

But it doesn’t.

It feels right to feel him there. To connect with his heart beating through my back as he cups my breast.

“Fuck. I love you,” Josh whispers at the shell of my ear.

“I love you too.” So very much.
