Page 56 of A Doctor for Daisy

She smiled at him. “I like it when you swear. I think I’m loosening you up.”

“Oh yeah,” he said, his eyes dropping down again.

His hips were going faster, she was letting out some tiny moans with each thrust, her breasts jiggling and the bed shaking.

She was still on her elbows and finally fell onto her back.

He put her legs around him and let go. She wrapped them around his hips.

His hands went to the bed to lean in and give him leverage.

Her hands went into his hair. “Kiss me,” she said.

Their mouths met, and their tongues were dancing as much as their hips were grinding.

He felt like he was going to burst open at any moment but didn’t want to do it until she was there herself.

This was only the fourth time they’d had sex and he was looking for any sign she was close.

It was hard to tell when he was so focused on not finishing himself.

“Are you there?” he asked. He just wasn’t good enough to figure it out on his own. Might as well ask.

“So there,” she said.

He’d take that as a go and his body did what it was meant to do in situations like this.

It kicked into gear to the point he was actually moving his bed, but Daisy was screaming out his name and the only way he was stopping before he was ready was if he dropped dead.

That might happen yet with the way his heart was pounding as everything exploded inside of him.

His body finally came to a standstill and he dropped down on her. She let out a grunt and he felt horrible, but he wasn’t able to think much.

He did roll and put her on top of him. It was easy enough with her legs still around his hips, but they dropped when he turned.

“I need to encase those shoes in a shrine,” he said.

He wasn’t aware he’d said that out loud, but her laughter told him otherwise.

Spreading Your Wings

“How is the new Mama feeling?” Daisy asked Rose a few weeks later.

“Glad to get this kid out of me,” Rose said.

“He’s so tiny,” she said, looking at the sleeping baby boy in the bassinet. Rose had the baby three days ago and got home yesterday.

Daisy had wanted to go visit in the hospital, but she was slammed at work and knew if she showed up, all Rose would talk about was that.

Yesterday she wanted to make sure Rose was settled at home with the baby before intruding, but she was itching to see her boss and the new addition to the family and was thrilled when Rose texted her to see if she could visit today.

“You don’t think that when you’re pushing him out of a small hole.”

Daisy burst out laughing. Totally something Rose would say and it would make Poppy cringe and Lily roll her eyes. The rest of them would have laughed in the flower shop just like she had.

“I’m sure,” she said. “How are you feeling?”
