The walk was over way too fast, and we ended up at my sister’s door in less than ten minutes.
I walked to my car and pressed the garage door opener.
His eyes followed me as I did so, noting that I hadn’t unlocked the car.
The disapproval rolling off him made me want to roll my eyes.
That was something I always did. It was easier than carrying keys when I had no pocket.
“That’s not safe,” he rebuked.
I shrugged. “It’s a good neighborhood. I’ve never worried about it before.”
The garage door went up as we spoke, and I led us inside, leading him directly to Rowen’s room.
“You can lay her down there. Thank you,” I said as he placed her in her bed.
It was a princess castle.
Reese had paid a local contractor nearly a grand to build it, and I was still unsure how she was going to have it moved. It literally took up the entire room.
“Thank you,” I said as I started working her arms out of the wings. “She’s pretty heavy. She would’ve been hard for me to carry that far.”
Once the wings were off, I peeled off her shoes, followed shortly by her tights.
“She looks pretty capable of walking,” Grayson noted as he stood in the doorway, watching me.
I laughed. “She sure is. She just got tired after the first quarter mile. Thank God I had the wagon!”
He smiled, looking down at the sleeping girl. “She’s cute.”
I nodded and walked to the door. “That she is.”
As we walked back through the house, I could feel his eyes on me.
Could feel the way my body reacted to his.
We walked through the kitchen, and back into the night, coming to a stop just outside the garage door.
“Thanks again for walking us,” I said quietly, bringing my hands up to cover my arms.
He watched the move, and then something shifted.
His eyes, which had been friendly before, suddenly started to blaze.
He moved fast.
One moment he was standing four feet away from me, and seconds later, he had me pinned up against the brick of my sister’s house.
I went willingly, of course.
One moment I was trying my hardest to keep my hands off him, and the next I was in his arms, my hands finding a home in his soft hair.
His mouth came down on mine. Hard.
The moment our lips touched, my body ignited.
I moaned against him, feeling the heat of his breath against the sensitive skin of my neck, sending shockwaves coursing down my spine.
“I’ve wanted to do this for so long,” he said, slamming his mouth back down onto mine.
Our tongues played a game, dueling against one another’s.
I never would’ve thought that the feel of his tongue against my own would’ve felt as it did. Never would’ve believed that with one tiny movement, I’d be straight on course to an orgasm by a man for the first time in my life.
I gasped when his jean-clad thigh worked in between my own, pressing against me, just right, so that I was on the verge of an orgasm before I’d even realized what was going on.
I gasped into his mouth, clenching my fist hard, eliciting a growl out of him.
“Fucking perfect,” he hissed, grinding his thigh into me, letting me feel the hard length of him where he was pressed up against my hip.
I sucked hard on his bottom lip and I ground myself down onto his thigh, seeking that little push that I needed to bring my orgasm upon me.
My abs clenched, and I sucked hard on his tongue as my orgasm finally tore through me like a tornado of feeling.
I’d had orgasms before, of course. But none like this.
It was a good one, too.
A soul shattering, breath stealing, mind blowing release of energy that had me seeing stars.
“Beautiful,” Grayson rasped against my lips.
I could feel his hard length prodding me insistently in the belly, but when I started to reach for it, he stayed my hand, bringing it up between our chests.
“Not yet. When we do that…and note I said when, not if, we will need more than a few minutes for a quick fuck against a wall. I want to enjoy you. Savor you. Suck all of your juices free before I fuck you so long that we’re both raw inside. I’ve never wanted someone so much before in my life, and I want to savor our first time,” he said, staring straight into my eyes.
Little did he know, that he was in for a lot more than our first time…but my first ever.
“Dinner tomorrow?” He asked as he started backing slowly away.
All I could do was nod and lean back against the wall because my legs still were confused on what they were supposed to be doing.
When he grinned and turned his back on me, I finally came back on track again, just enough to watch him walk away, enjoying it way more than I probably should have.

“Hello?” I gasped into the phone.
“Hey, baby. What’s wrong?” My dad asked.
I closed my eyes and tried not to cry.
My car. My baby. Was gone.
I’d known as soon as my car had started this morning that this would be her last time.
She’d made an awful coughing sound…one that had been getting progressively worse over the last few weeks.
My 1993 Toyota Corolla had over two hundred thousand miles, and had breathed her last breath at the stop sign two miles down from the hospital.
My dad told me that I needed to get the oil changed. However, it’d been over a year now, and I still hadn’t gotten around to it.
Who knew one had to get their oil changed every three thousand miles…instead of every forty thousand?
I’d been on my way to be with my mom for her second to last round of chemotherapy when the knocking started.
When the shuddering started, I prayed that it would at least make it to the parking lot a couple hundred feet across the intersection, but it was a no go.
