“I don’t have a condom. Do you trust me?”

He was right at her opening and all she had to do was take a step back and he’d slide right in. No condom was risky, but she couldn’t say no. Not now. “I trust you, Mikey.”

It was the only permission statement he needed, and in one thrust he was deep inside of her, spreading her walls, holding her hips as he thrusted in and out. They were both fully clothed, minus their pants, and Haize’s had slid down to her knees. Her legs opened as wide as they could go, and though it was a tight fit, it provided amazing friction and she gripped the tree to keep from falling.

“Haize…” His voice was heavy against the night air. “This feels… so fucking good.”

It was strange how the absence of a rubber could provide different pleasure. His skin directly against hers, not guarded by a thin layer of latex made her feel even more attached to him.

“Turn around. Face me.”

She did as she was told, and he lifted one of her legs, entering her from the front. Looking her in the eye, he kissed her as his hand groped her breast under her sweater. She moaned into his mouth as he changed angles, every inch of him so deep within her that she lost all cares and worries. It was just them, up against the trunk of a pine tree, making love, enjoying themselves, and forgetting the world around them.

“Somehow you’re still so sexy with your clothes on,” he said as he panted. “I’m gonna have to pull out. I’m about to come.”

Haize tightened her leg around his hips, pulling him close. “No. Come inside me, Mikey.”

“Are you sure?” He pushed into her so hard that it hurt for a split second as she adjusted to his size.

“Yes. I wanna feel you finish inside me, Mikey.” She couldn’t believe her own words. What about pregnancy? What if he was carrying a disease? He claimed he was clean, but he was the first to admit he was promiscuous. Something told Haize that it was fine. He had been tested. He had to be tested before his release.

He probed several more times. “Okay.”

And then he finished. His warm seed entered her, and it was the most amazing feeling she had experienced. Her head dropped back, and he kissed her neck as he continued to pump multiple times before pulling out, his warm body against her replaced with the breeze.

He stood and stared at her, his pants resting on his hips, his arousal still apparent despite his orgasm. “Damn it, Haize. You’re amazing.”

She pulled her pants up and buttoned her jeans, feeling her moist panties against her skin, ravished between her legs. “You are too, Mikey.”

He pulled her in for a tight hug, holding her so close she took in his scent. His pheromones comforted her, and she was scared to see what time it was. She wasn’t ready to go their separate ways until they could be together again.

“Are you on birth control?” His heavy hand rested on the small of her back.

“No. But it’s fine, Mikey. I promise you, it’s fine.” She thought about his little boy. How he was fighting so hard to be a good dad. How he was fighting for custody on top of all the other problems he was facing. She was complicating it all. Maybe it was time to consider birth control. How would they ever be able to go back to condoms after how amazing that had felt?

He rested his forehead on hers. “I love you, Haize.”

His words hit her hard. He had said it first, though she had felt it from the moment they first kissed. She had just been too scared to say it and scare him off.

“I love you, too, Mikey.”

A huge smile flashed across his face. “I’ve never actually said it and meant it. It feels… it feels good to say it to someone I really love, Haize, and not just to get something I want.”

She intertwined her fingers with his and moved his wrist to where she could see his watch. “You’ve got about fifteen minutes before you have to get home.”

“Damn. Damn, I don’t wanna go.”

They walked back to their cars, still holding onto each other, both unwilling to break physical contact. Haize still couldn’t believe she was bold enough to allow him to come inside her with no protection. It felt good. It felt worrisome. The sex had been the best yet, and she’d deal with the consequences later, should anything come out of it.

“Thanks for a good evening, Mikey.”

He kissed her again, tongue dipping inside her mouth before pulling away. “I gotta stop doing that or I’ll definitely be late going home.”

“I really love you too, Mikey. I’ll count the minutes until we can be together again.”

“Same, Haize. And thank you, for everything. I can’t do any of this without you.”

“I’ll always be here for you, Mikey. Always.” She climbed into her car and drove off – a bit of sadness overtook her, but mostly, she felt the happiest she ever had. Michael Brennan loved her. She loved Michael Brennan. Nothing could ever come between that. Nothing.
