“But outside of here…”
“It doesn’t matter. I enjoy my work, but since you’ve come back into my life, it’s the end of the day I look forward to the most.”
“Gavin…”
“I spend my days working, doing my job around colleagues and friends, but I’m ridiculously anxious to do nothing more than to get home to you.”
“I know. I feel the same way. I do…”
“Why do I hear a but in there somewhere?”
“Gavin, we jumped into this thing head first and at the speed of light. What if we’re rushing things?”
“As far as I’m concerned, we’re not moving fast enough.”
“I’m practically living with you now. I don’t see how that’s not fast enough.”
“That’s what I mean. You aren’t living with me. You’re still living out of a damn overnight bag and a stack of clothes in the corner. Hang them up in the closet already and let’s go get the rest of your stuff and move it in here. Having two places is a waste of time and money.”
“Now you’re talking crazy.”
“I’m being completely serious. I want you under my roof. A roof I pay for, with food I provide and…” I stop when she slaps her hand over my mouth.
“You need to stop there before you piss me off. This is not the dark ages. I work. I can buy my own food and…”
“I didn’t say you couldn’t. I’m telling you what I want. Until you came along I’ve never had these…”
“Caveman tendencies?”
“I can deal with that. Casey woman. Me man. Her man,” I grunt out and she rolls her eyes at me, but she laughs. “The point is, in case you missed it Casey Langley, is that you’re all I want.”
“Gavin, I appreciate what you’re saying, but you can’t deny our worlds are completely different.”
“I can and I will. The two of us together is our world. It doesn’t matter what we do outside of here. That’s not significant. What we are to each other, how we are with each other, that’s the important things baby. Relationships can fail for anyone.”
“Exactly maybe if you had someone who understood your world, who was part of it, then…”
“Quit trying to give me away, Casey. Now you’re pissing me off.”
“I’m not trying to give you away! I’m saying that if you had someone like Bella that she would—”
“Fuck. Is that what all this is about?” I all but growl. I move quickly flipping her so I have her caged against the mattress, my body pinning her down. I pull her hands above her head and pin them against the mattress.
“Gavin!” she gasps, her eyes going round.
“I don’t want Bella. She’s a friend. We’ve remained friends, but we broke up in high school, damn it. In case it has escaped your notice, I’ve been out of high school for a hell of a long time, Casey.”
“I know,” she whispers, not moving. Maybe she’s afraid she will add to my anger. That’s smart of her.
“I’m a grown fucking man and I know exactly what I want,” I declare after reaching over and turning on the bedside light. I stare into her eyes, wanting her to see me, needing her to see that what I’m telling her is the truth.
“What do you want?” she asks, after a moment of silence between us.
“You, Casey. I knew it from the first moment I saw you again. I was sure of it when I was a lucky enough bastard to see you a second time.”
“Ran into me again, really,” she corrects, but her face softens and there’s a smile playing with her lips.
“Quit being cute. I’m pissed,” I mutter. I keep one hand on her wrists, but reach down to pull her panties to the side, not even taking the time to remove them.
“What are you…oh fuck…” she pants, when I stop her words by pushing my hard cock deep inside of her. Thank God she’s wet, because I didn’t take the time to check, or worry about it. I need this connection with her. I need it more than anything else in the world at the moment. When I’m joined with her, connected in the most elemental way, that’s when I can be sure she’s mine. Right now, I need that assurance.
“You’re mine, Casey. You’re already wet for me. You need me as much as I need you. Admit it.”
“I need you,” she says, hooking her leg around me, which sinks my cock even deeper inside her tight channel.
“You’re mine,” I repeat, refusing to move until she gives me the words I need to hear.
“Gavin,” she protests, her body trying to thrust up into me, and yet somehow I still remain strong, not giving her what she wants. Her nails bite into my ass as she tries to spur me into moving.
“Give me the words, Casey.”
“Gavin, please,” she begs and I feel my cock jerk deep inside of her. I like her begging. I want her to beg me.
