“I want you,” he said, kissing the corner of my mouth and then my cheek. “Share what you got for me, and then I’m taking you here. I wanna touch you. Feel you touch me.”
Couch sex. Hell, yes to all of that.
I pressed one more kiss to his stubbled jaw, then I got to my feet and grabbed the list I’d made, returning to the couch with it.
I sat cross-legged facing Sean and held it out.
“What’s this?” he asked, looking at the paper.
“People you can talk to, if you want, and I think you should,” I told him, getting his eyes then. “They can help you, Sean. That nightmare…I don’t want you having them ever again. I told you I’d get you to a place where you’d never need that bucket. This is me getting you there.”
“I don’t like talkin’ about that shit,” he said, which was something I already knew.
“I know, and I know it’ll be hard, and if you don’t want to do this, I’ll understand. But I really think you should at least give this a try. These people are trained to heal. And you’re still hurting.”
He looked back at the list, read it again, rubbed at his mouth harshly, then kept reading.
I leaned in and placed my hand on top of one of his. “I can go with you if you want,” I said, getting his eyes again. “Or pick one and I’ll check them out first. I don’t care. But no one will see you unless you want them to, Sean. No one gets to you without going through me, and even though I’ve spent the afternoon checking references and studying backgrounds, I didn’t get the opportunity to meet anyone on that list face-to-face. I will be doing that. They don’t just need to be good, Sean. They need to be the best. You just give me a name, and I’ll make sure of that. I promise.”
Sean’s eyes got intense, then he looked at that list one last time before folding that piece of paper in half, getting to his feet, and stuffing the list inside his back pocket.
I smiled watching that happen because I knew it meant Sean was going to give me a name, possibly more than one, I’d scope them out in person, and then we’d get started on healing him.
I couldn’t have been happier in that moment.
Until I watched Sean pull his shirt off, toss it, and then get to work on his belt.
“I’ve never had sex on a couch before,” I admitted, getting to my feet now too so I could strip myself of clothing.
Sean unzipped his jeans. “Glad I get to cross that off your list.”
“Me too. I’m glad it’s you.”
He’d just sat down on the couch to work at his boots when he froze and looked up at me. Our eyes met. His flashed with lust, hunger, and so much meaning, I began to ache in a way I knew meant there was a good chance I’d hold a world record for orgasms tonight, the first one building already.
How crazy was that?
“Gonna cross it off a lot,” he promised.
I pulled my sweater off and grinned. “Awesome.”
He grinned back.
We resumed stripping, both of us holding onto our grins, then I got on my back, Sean got on top of me, we started kissing, touching, stroking, our moans coming soft and then building when Sean guided my legs around his waist and slid inside me.
Floor sex was amazing.
Couch sex was equally incredible, especially since Sean hadn’t lied about crossing this location off my list multiple times.
I came once on my back. Once on my knees with Sean taking me from behind while I gripped the armrest. Once with Sean’s fingers sliding inside me when I thought we were taking a break, but Sean’s break included exploring my body the way he always did when we’d lie naked together, and when Sean explored, he explored thoroughly.
Last, I came grinding my hips down on top of Sean while he licked and sucked on my breasts. That orgasm surprised me because I thought it would take a while, but it didn’t, thanks to Sean’s tongue and the words he spoke against my flesh while he went to town there. Sean talking dirty was possibly at the top of my kryptonite list.
I didn’t stand a chance.
Though, I had a feeling if it did hold top billing, it wouldn’t hold that title forever. Sean was always surprising me with something that make my heart ache or beat so, so wildly, and before the night was up and he went home, he did it again.
We were standing at the door kissing, Sean dressed and me in nothing but my oversized sweater and panties. I didn’t want him to leave, but we’d see each other at Whitecaps tomorrow morning, so I didn’t protest.
