Again, this was another of those areas where people felt she was too old for them. Spending her time quilting and sewing, she’d had a few people berate her over the years. She’d never been a party animal.
“I got the results from my exam,” she said, brushing past him. “Here they are.” She picked up the letter and handed it to him.
“I got mine as well.” He pulled a piece of paper out of his pocket.
She opened it up and saw he was all clean.
“Right, so we’re both good to have … sex,” she said. Damn, did she just whisper the last word? This was mortifying. In her apartment stood a man who probably was used to women throwing themselves at him, and she couldn’t even talk normally in front of him. “Do you want a drink? Hot chocolate? Wine?”
She winced. The wine was a cheap bottle for the occasional glass.
“I’d love a hot chocolate. Your apartment is great. It’s very cozy.”
“Thank you.” She escaped to the kitchen. After grabbing the bottle of wine, she poured herself a glass and took a large gulp before starting on his hot chocolate.
“Do I make you that nervous?” he asked.
She spun around to find him leaning up against the doorway.
“You weren’t supposed to see that.”
“Is that a problem?” he asked. The humor in his gaze made her aware he was having a joke with her.
“Very funny. No. It’s not every single day I have a guy who’s waiting to have sex with me.”
“There, you said the S-E-X word without whispering.” He winked at her. She put the bottle back into the fridge and took out some milk.
“How do you want to do this?” she asked.
“We get naked and we have some fun. You know, the normal way.”
She spilled milk over the side of the pan. What was this man doing to her?
“No, I know what you mean. I’ve had sex before.” Not good sex, and it was so boring, but she’d experienced it. “I think I need to go to a clinic and they can help me judge when I’ll be at my most fertile. I can call you, or you can have like an alert on your phone.”
“Hell, no.” He held his hands up, wrinkling his nose. “Not going to happen. Not even funny. I don’t want any part of this to be like a machine. We’re going to make love, Meredith. Not to a timer or a chart, but with each other. Do you not find me attractive?”
“Oh, I didn’t say that.”
“But you’re not saying that you are?”
“Please, don’t. I’m not used to this.”
“I’m going to level with you. I find you attractive. I want to fuck you, and I don’t want to have to use the excuse or wait until you’re fertile.”
No man had ever spoken to her like that before.
****
His guy had been thorough when it came to finding out everything he needed to know about Meredith. Jared had already gotten the results of her medical exam even before tonight. She was an amazing woman. Hard-working. The relationships she’d had in the past hadn’t been great. His guy had even checked out one or two of the men on social media and the shit they’d said about Meredith, well, it left a lot to be desired. Quite frankly, it pissed him off that they were talking about her like that. He had a good mind to destroy them, but instead, he’d looked at the positive. He didn’t have to worry about any other man trying to fight for her.
He’d gladly take this woman.
All those other men didn’t know what they were missing out on. That sucked for them, but not for him.
He couldn’t wait to enjoy her. With every passing day, he felt the excitement building. Not only was he going to get a baby out of this arrangement, he was going to enjoy every single part of this woman and have her all to himself. He didn’t care what his parents thought. They were going to judge him no matter who he wanted in his life, and once a baby was involved, they wouldn’t get the chance to judge, ever.
“You can’t mean that.” She licked her lips.
He’d noticed she did that a lot when she was nervous.
Closing the distance between them, he stood toe-to-toe with her. Her head tilted back, and he stared into her eyes. Reaching out, he took her hand. Without any warning, he placed it on his already stiff cock. Rather than hide what she did to him, he was going to be open and honest with her. “You see, that is what you do to me, Meredith. This has nothing to do with the baby, but all about me and you. I want to see you get naked. I want to fuck your brains out and to know what your cunt feels like on my dick. I bet you get nice and wet.”
