There’s no one else in the world I want to give this to.
Just Colton. Only ever Colton.
His forehead wrinkles. “Let me know when I can—”
“Now,” I breathe. “Please.”
Our gazes collide as he begins to thrust.
“Sawyer,” he groans, his voice hoarse, ragged.
I draw tiny circles on his back with my nails. “You can move faster.”
I want him to enjoy this.
Plus, I know he’ll make it up to me during the next round when I’m a little more relaxed and a lot less sore.
Lifting one of my knees, he withdraws and drives back in. “Jesus.”
“I love you,” I whisper again, gripping his butt to pull him deeper.
Having sex with him doesn’t feel like breaking an oath to God…it feels like giving something special to my soulmate.
His eyes darken with absolution as he peers down at me. “I love you.”
My eyes flutter closed as he resumes his slow, steady rhythm even though it must be killing him to do so.
I meet his gentle thrusts with my hips. “Faster. Please.”
“I want to make you come.”
That’s not gonna happen. Not this time anyway. “You already did, remember?”
His face strains with pleasure as he picks up the pace. “I meant…again.”
While I applaud the effort, my body is far too restless. “You can do it after.”
He looks like he wants to protest, but I pull out the big guns. “I want to feel you come inside me.”
His eyes turn hooded and he groans low and deep. “Jesus fucking Christ.”
He thrusts his hips so fast my legs shake.
A moment later a strangled groan leaves him, and he shudders, letting himself go.
He buries his face in my neck, inhaling me. “I…fuck.”
“It’s okay.” Running my fingers through his damp hair, I tell him the truth. “It was perfect.”
So perfect.
So us.
So real.
Chapter 81
Cole
I’ve been watching Sawyer sleep for the last thirty minutes.
She looks so peaceful I didn’t have the heart to wake her before I left.
So I stayed.
“Morning,” I say as she wakes from her slumber.
Yawning, she nuzzles against my chest. “Good morning.”
“How do you feel?”
I know she was sore last night, but I’m hoping it’s gone now.
She looks up at me, her finger trailing up and down my ribcage. “Different.” She smiles. “But a good different.”
She looks a little different too…like she’s glowing.
I kiss her bare shoulder. “Love you.”
Her smile grows. “Love you.”
We stare at each other, grinning like two love struck idiots before Sawyer gasps. “Shit. What time is it?”
I glance over at the clock on the nightstand. “A little past nine. Why?”
She digs the heel of her palm into her forehead. “I was supposed to go downstairs with the rest of the bridal party for the breakfast sendoff.”
I have no idea what that is. “Breakfast sendoff?”
“My sister leaves for her honeymoon today. They wanted to have breakfast with the bridal party before they left.”
I toss back the comforter. “I’ll be out of here in three minutes.”
She tugs on my arm. “No.”
“No?”
“Don’t go.”
She looks over at the empty still-made bed across the room. “I’m assuming Clementine is down there…which means we still have at least another hour to ourselves.”
“What about the breakfast sendoff?”
“Her new husband is taking her to France for their honeymoon. Trust me, she doesn’t need her little sister to be there for her breakfast sendoff.”
Biting her lip, her hand disappears under the sheets. “However, there is something I need right now.” She wraps her hand around my cock. “Good Lord, Cole. Are you always this hard in the morning?”
Yes. “When I wake up next to a sexy, naked girl I am.”
Smiling coyly, she plants a row of kisses down my torso. “Well, this sexy naked girl wants to have some hot, naked sex with her boyfriend before her roommate comes back. You up for the job, Covington?”
I gesture to my dick. “You tell me, Church.”
She pouts. “I don’t know. I’m not convinced yet.”
A groan lodges in my throat when she lowers her head and sweeps her tongue over the head of my cock.
Six months ago, if anyone would have told me I’d be driving cross country to declare my love to a girl who had every reason to hate my guts…I never would have believed them.
Funny how things work out for the best.
“Fuck.” I fist the sheets as she pulls me into her mouth and sucks me long and deep. “Jesus.”
My girl has a mouth like a goddamn Hoover.
I look down at her. “Sawyer.”
She releases me with a wet pop. “Yeah?”
I drag her up my body. “If you keep sucking my cock like that, there will be no hot naked sex.”
Rolling her over so she’s on her back, I nudge her thighs apart and maneuver between them. “Just so you know, you will be coming all over my dick this time.”
She smiles coyly. “Whatever you s—”
A hiss escapes her mouth as I thrust inside her.
“You okay?”
Eyes fluttering closed, she hums. “More than okay.”
Grabbing the headboard for leverage, I pick up my pace. “Have any other family functions you need to attend today?”
“Nope.” Her eyes pop open. “Why?”
I give her a smug smile. “Because an hour won’t be long enough.”
I want an entire lifetime with Sawyer Church…and then some.
Chapter 82
Sawyer
“I just need twenty-five more,” I whisper. “That’s it.”
Oakley frowns. “You said that last time.”
To be fair, he has a point. But that was for the wedding, which was almost two weeks ago. This bottle is to maintain my weight loss.
“I really have to study—”
“You already got accepted into Duke’s Heart, remember?”
I don’t understand why he’s being so difficult about this. It’s not like I’m asking him for actual drugs.
“I know, but we still have a few more exams coming up, and they really help me concentrate.”
His jaw works. “Then maybe you should go to a doctor and get a prescription for them.”
“Last bottle, I promise.” I lean in. “I just want to end my high school career on a high note. Plus, I just found out today that I’m up for valedictorian.”
His eyebrows raise. “Really? Shit. That’s awesome, short stack.”
“I know.” I can’t help but smile. The news just about made me pass out from happiness. “But it’s between me and Miles Wilson, and you know how smart that kid is. I can use all the help I can get.”
