Squeezing his hand, she said, “Thank you, David. But for tonight, I want to forget about Jay. I want it to be just about you and me.”
He lifted her hand to his lips and kissed her palm. “As long as it’s not just tonight.”
They drove the rest of the way holding hands, a pulse of love flowing through them. When they arrived on her street, Cara smiled up at him.
“I have chocolate ice cream at home,” she announced devilishly. “Brand new. Never opened. I think we should devour it after we devour each other.”
He nodded and smiled. “I like how you think.”
David helped Cara into the house even though she didn’t need any. They both headed to the bedroom with quiet urgency. He undressed her, and she climbed awkwardly onto the waterbed and waited for him. They laughed as they both moved under the covers.
“OH,” he said. “It’s warm.”
“Yeah, it’s heated.”
“Should have told me that sooner,” he said leaning over to kiss her. When he pressed his lips to hers, she felt like all was good, all was normal. All the drama was behind them.
“Marissa told me you liked me,” she whispered.
He traced her face with his forefinger.
“I more than like you,” he said intently.
“I more than like you too.”
“But you didn’t need Marissa to tell you that, did you?” he asked in his honeyed voice.
“No,” she said. “Was it love at first sight?”
“Did Marissa tell you I love you?”
“No, but I didn’t need her to tell me, you said you wanted to make love to me and anything less wouldn’t be enough.”
That night they made love several times. When David woke Cara up, he had a cup of coffee and good news.
“Morning, sunshine.”
She lifted to a seated position, the sheet fell to her waist exposing her perfect breasts. How was he supposed to deliver any news when she sat there looking so damn sexy?
“I’ve got to talk to you. You’re making this hard.” He looked down at his growing length. “You’re making me hard.”
She reached out and gripped his cock. “Yep, it’s hard. And you want to talk?” Her sexy voice was like velvet rubbing his cock.
David lifted the sheet to cover her. “First things first,” He adjusted his hard-on and groaned. “Gary was given the option today to cease and desist. He either takes down the pictures, publicly apologizes, and restores your good name, or he’ll be arrested for distributing unauthorized pornography.”
“You’re kidding? What did he choose?”
David scrolled through his phone and pulled up the apology. “He’s a coward. We’re going
to have to talk about your taste in men.”
She let the sheet drop. “Like you, I’ve upgraded.”
“That’s because you’re a freaking genius.”
“I’m glad we agree.”
