I bite my lower lip. “What do you want most?” I ask in a whispery voice.

“A future with all four of you.”

Unblinking, I bring my hands to his cheeks. “It’s yours.” A small smile creeps over his lips before I push him back down on me.

Chapter 21

Trey

Not willing to let Kailey get away, I continue to kiss my way down her neck. I want to take her so fucking bad. The need to be inside of her, my dick surrounded by her clenching warmth is so intense, I could practically come right now. With her legs tightening around my waist, I know she’s thinking the same.

My hands begin to roam up her shirt, until my hand cups her breast, massaging her pebbled nipple between my fingers. God, how I’ve missed them. Unable to hold back, I pull down her bra, letting the fullness spill out. I inch her shirt up until it rests at her chin. One breast out and one barely concealed inside the green satin of her bra. My fingers twitch with need to unclasp her bra. To my surprise, she reaches forward and does it for me. When the green fabrics falls to the side, revealing her luscious, creamy skin with the small pink nipples, my mouth salivates with the thought of it wrapped around one of them. “You’re so damn hot,” I say, bending down and taking a mouthful. As I take turns switching from one to the other, never completely satisfied, Kailey begins to squirm under me. She’s getting as hot as I am, and the thought of how soaked she is right now, makes me grow even harder.

She doesn’t make me wait long, as she begins to guide my hands down to her waistline. My fingers unbutton her shorts and pull the zipper down, revealing a peek at her striped underwear. Her body wiggles back and forth, and I help her drag down her jeans, watching her as she gets her legs out and kicks them across the room. Peering down at the sight of her in only her underwear, her legs spread out waiting for me my breath stops. Her eyes holding my gaze with the love and life I haven’t seen in weeks. “Well, are you just going to sit there?” She cocks her head to the side, giggling.

“No,” I answer, staying right where I am. “You’re mine?” I question, craving the finality that her fight is over.

“I’m yours,” she confirms and holds her arms out. I inch forward but she places her finger up in the air. “Take the shorts off,” she demands, and I scramble to take them off as fast as I can.

Once I’m on top of her, my cock begs me to relieve him, I gently nudge her with my hardness and she moans. “Say it?” I ask her.

“I love you, Trey,” she answers immediately.

“For how long?” I ask her, kissing her neck and collarbone.

“Always,” she breathlessly tells me.

“And?” I say, kissing her stomach and hooking my hands on either side of her panties. I begin pulling the striped cotton underwear down her thighs, exposing her glistening wetness.

“Forever, Trey,” she sighs. “I need you, now.” I finish pulling them down her tanned legs, and shrug out of my boxer briefs at the same time.

“Remember that.” I’m not even fully at her opening when her hands take a firm grasp to my ass and thrust my body forward. She’s so fucking wet, I slide right in.

“Ahhh,” she moans, tilting her head back. I descend on her neck like a damn vampire starved for blood; sucking her flesh into my mouth with the sensation of her wrapped so tightly around me. My face burrows into her shoulder as I pump into her time and time again.

I’m barely going to hold on. It’s like lighting a match and the quick descent of the flame to your fingers. I can’t hold back much longer, but damn if I’ll burn myself before she doesn’t get off before me.

“I love you, Kailey. Never leave me again. It’s been a nightmare without you.” My heart starts speaking for me.

“Never, Trey. I promise. I’m done fighting,” she stutters between moans and gripping of my body.

“I think I just went from hell to heaven in the past hour. That’s what you are to me, Kailey, pure heaven.” Her legs are tightening around my waist, and I know she’s growing closer.

“Oh Trey,” she whispers, her warm rapid breathing right at my ear. “Look at me,” she asks, and I pick my head up. When I catch the desire and love all mixed together in her eyes, I’m finally at peace that it’s okay. She’s not going to leave me again.

She licks her lips, and she doesn’t have to tell me twice before I cover hers with mine. Our tongues are frantic within each other, darting in and out and around. Sweat puddles between our bodies while our teeth knock, our hands grasp, and we whisper promises of love and happily ever after.

By the time we come, I’m exhausted. Seeing the sweat line across her hairline and her body trembling, I pull her toward me. Sitting up, I stare into her eyes and the small film of tears in them has me terrified I pushed us too fast.

“Why are you crying?” I cradle her to me, rubbing my thumb across the bottom of her eye.

“I’m sorry,” she weeps into my arms. “I put you through hell... I put us both through it.” A small smile begins to form, thankful she was in hell just like me.

“Hey,” I push her back so she can see me, “it’s all good now. Really good,” I let my eye roam down our naked bodies.

“So you forgive me?”

“I’ll always forgive you.” I place my finger under her chin and lightly kiss her lips. “For future reference, I’m not going anywhere.”

“Thank you for sticking with me.”

“Well, your stubborn side is one I love the most.” She playfully smacks her hand at my chest, but I just pull her closer.

I ease us onto the blanket and rub my fingers down her arm, feeling the warmth of her hand on my chest. “Can I ask you a question?” She picks her head up to look at me. “Do I need to start investing in good pairs of track shoes?” Her eyes squint from confusion. “Am I going to be chasing you for the rest of my life?”

She softly giggles. “I think my running days are over.” She places the softest kiss on my stomach. “Can I ask you something?” I nod my head. “Are you sure I’m what you want? Am I enough to keep you?”

My body jerks up. “Kailey.” I’m thrown at the seriousness of her question. Mine had been a playful slam on her always running from me, but she clearly still has concerns about my feelings. “Yes, you’re what I want. How could you ask that?”

“It’s just...” the tears are forming again in her eyes. “Trey, I really liked you when you still didn’t know who I was. You never even gave me a second look. There were times, I was sitting right next to you when you would come up to the bar. One time you actually winked at me. I’m just worried that—,” I stop her.

“Kailey, I was a different person then, blind to any girl who wasn’t putting off a vibe that I could get in her pants. I’m sorry that you noticed me first, but believe, baby, the last thing you need to worry about is not being enough for me or what I want. I’ve been waiting for you my whole life; I was just too fucked up to know it. When you sat down next to me on that plane, it was like an awakening. Everything cleared and it was only you standing in the vision of my future. You know how many times I’ve lain awake with you in my arms, wishing for morning never to come? Or the times, I count minutes until I’m going to see you again? When we’re together, I pray for time to slow and when we’re apart, I beg for it to speed up.” He pauses staring down at me. “So, I guess what I’m trying to tell you is, I was a complete prick for never seeing the girl who held my future in her heart. But now that I’ve found her, I’ll never give her up. You got that, baby?” A sly grin forms and she throws her arms around me.

“I love you, Trey Michaels,” she says into my ear. The best five words of all time when they come out of her mouth.

“I love you, the future Mrs. Trey Michaels.” She pushes herself up and looks at me in shock. “Yes, baby, one day I’ll be tattooing our wedding day on my body.” I’m not asking her although if she accepted right now, I wouldn’t think twice before running out and getting her a ring. But it has to be special, she deserves that plus more.
