“I can see why. It’s far enough away from the lights that you can see even the smallest stars winking back at ya.”
“Exactly.” We both settled on our backs to watch the stars, and I felt comfortable. If once discounted the sexual tension that swirled between us and made it impossible for me to focus on anything but the man beside me. “So tell me what constellations you see.”
“All right. Look right there at those three stars.” He leaned closer so I could follow his finger straight to the sky. “That’s Orion’s Belt which is part of a bigger constellation called Orion.” He pointed out the arrow of the hunter and outlined the whole form. “Pretty cool right?”
I nodded. “I’m impressed, and I think it’s pretty cool you know that. How?”
He shrugged like it was no big deal, but it was. “Truth?”
“Always.”
“I once saw a certain girl reading a book about constellations and when you can see them best, and I thought I might impress the pretty girl, but that plan went a little off the rails. The girl hated my guts, but the love of the stars stuck with me.”
I didn’t know what to say to that, so I closed my eyes and pulled Derek closer until his mouth was on mine, and all thoughts of the past stayed where they belonged.
Derek kissed like he did most things, with everything he had. He threw everything at me, soft lips and an insistent tongue combined with roaming hands to make sure I was powerless to resist him, not that I wanted to, but even a moment to breathe, a second of clarity might have forced me to reconsider my actions.
Instead I leaned into him and wrapped my arms and legs around his lean body as he laid flush against mine, hips thrusting against the heat between my thighs until I was breathless and panting. His hands roamed my skin, his mouth kept up a steady torture that left me overheated and hungry for more.
I want this.
The thought came to me between thrusts and pants, and instead of pushing it away, I courted the thought. I played with it, considered what would happen if I gave in to what came next from this kiss, the inevitable conclusion of where this kiss would lead for a man and a woman. “Yes,” I growled when Derek nipped my collarbone and worked his way down to the swell of my cleavage.
He pulled back with a sexy, teasing grin. “Have I told you how pretty you look tonight?”
I laughed and shook my head. “No, but the wide-eyed, slack jawed stare when you saw me told me what I needed to know.” With nothing but a look, Derek had managed to make me feel like the prettiest, sexiest woman around.
“Yeah,” he growled. “What’s that?”
“That you liked what you saw.” My body grew hotter just thinking of that look in his eyes earlier, but now when I pushed up on my elbows the look I saw was pure fire and arousal.
“Oh I more than liked what I saw honey, but seeing you like this? It’s like a dream come true.” He sucked on my cleavage and down my stomach over the lightweight dress I wore until he reached my bare legs and kissed every inch of them. “Silky smooth and melting in my mouth,” he growled and the sound hit me right between the thighs, flooded my panties.
“Derek,” I moaned as his hands slid up my thighs and he found my core, wet and sticky.
“I’m right here, babe. Tell me what you want. What you need.”
“You,” I panted. “Just you.”
“Perfect.” He smiled up at me and kissed me right over my panties and then he inhaled deeply and growled. “You’re absolutely fucking perfect.” And then his mouth was on me, on my flesh, and his tongue reminded me of what it was like to be a woman, desired and cared for. A woman chasing her pleasure with a man who got off on hearing her sounds of pleasure.
“Yes, Derek.” I arched into him, but the pleasure was turning into agony, it was too much to bear and I gripped his hair hard, tugged it until his blue gaze set upon mine.
“Problem?”
“I need you. Now. Right now.”
A crooked grin twisted his mouth and he dove right back in, licking me from opening to clit, suckling my clit until my hips bucked off the truck and he didn’t stop until I shouted his name into the moonlight. Pleasure came lightning quick, so fast it surprised me and I didn’t have time to be self-conscious or worried about the particulars that women are prone to worry about, instead I just enjoyed the rush he gave me. Hell, I reveled in it.
“Oh. My.” I looked down at Derek as he smiled up at me.
