I break the kiss and return my face to his neck as he gently makes his way to his own release. He holds me tightly to his chest. The moment he spills inside me tilts our relationship in a new direction.
I’ve never allowed it before, but I cling to him in sated bliss as his warmth fills me. For the first time ever, I feel completely safe in his arms. I wait for that sense of danger, but it never comes.
“I can’t make you promises,” I whisper into his ear.
“You don’t have to,” he pants. “Just stop running.”
“No promises,” I repeat.
He grunts but doesn’t say anymore as he kisses the top of my head. It’s then that I realize my scarf is gone and my braids are getting wet. His ass is lucky I don’t have on my wig.
“I’ll blow dry it for you,” he says as if reading my mind.
“You better,” I say with a sated chuckle.
Knight
Moments like this with Rem are what I live for. We have music going as always and we’re waiting for the food to arrive as I blow dry her hair for her.
I think it’s gotten longer and thicker since I last saw it like this. I know it’s taking longer to get through it all. Although, that could be because I’m taking my time just to be close to her.
“I’ve always loved your hair like this. I wish I got to see it more,” I say as I blow dry the last section of her hair.
“Um, I’ll keep that in mind.”
I dip my head to kiss the top of hers. She had been on my mind all morning while I surfed, trying to clear my head, so I came over to check on her. I hadn’t expected the change that transpired between us.
She looked so sexy with that scarf on her head and her nipples peeking through her thin T-shirt. I wanted to kiss her so bad, but when she kissed me first, I knew there was no turning back. I had to be inside her.
Now she’s sitting between my legs as I sit on the couch with a towel still around my waist. I grin as I look into the mirror she’s holding up to watch me. Catching her eyes on me, my smile grows.
“I’m almost done and you still don’t trust me,” I tease.
“I might be enjoying the view,” she tosses back.
I follow her gaze and find she has a view straight up my towel. I narrow my eyes at her, and she bursts out laughing. I go to tickle her and get some pay back, but the doorbell rings.
“I’ll get it,” I say and put the blow dryer down.
I feel her eyes on me before I look down at her. The scowl on her face speaks loud and clear. I look down at the towel around my waist and then back at her with a brow lifted.
“You’re not answering my door like that. I’ve got it,” she says.
I give her a crooked grin and shrug. She’s wearing a pair of shorts and a tank top, so I guess she would be considered the most decently dressed at the moment. I laugh and step out of the way.
“Are you becoming jealous, baby?”
“Nope, just don’t want you scaring off my delivery guy,” she chirps.
Shaking my head, I grab my wallet and pull out cash to hand to her, pecking her on the lips as I hand it over. She takes the money and looks me over. The desire in her eyes almost causes me to forget the food we ordered and kiss the shit out of her.
I almost do, but both our stomachs grumble at the same time. Rem takes off as I watch her. She looks so cute with her hair all over her head and her little bare feet.
Her ass jiggles in the tiny shorts, causing me to groan. I may not have come here for sex, but I sure do plan to get my fill while I’m here. She looks over her shoulder and catches me staring.
The way her eyes twinkle back at me, I think I fall in love with her all over again. If only she would have allowed those words to slip from her lips earlier, but I see them. I see them clearly in her eyes.
CHAPTER 28
Another off the list
Reminisce
I’m a little nervous about this date. We agreed to meet up with Sunny and Jamel for another double date. I’m still a little embarrassed after the last one.
Sunny wouldn’t take no for an answer, so here we are. Knight looks sexy as hell in a black dress shirt he’s rolls up over his muscled arms and black slacks. I opted to wear a black illusion dress. The corseted top gives the illusion that it’s shear. The rest of the dress molds to me like a second skin.
