I hung up the phone and we all burst into laughter. The angry look on Harper’s face was priceless but we all knew this was for the greater good. He huffed himself upstairs to change while I walked out with Blake to his car and we all set off to gather Christmas decorations for Mark’s room.
Harper’s plan was amazing and none of us were shocked that the idea came from him. But it was gonna be fucking hard to pull off on Christmas Eve. Luckily, when he was talking us through everything, he’d already done most of the legwork. All we needed to do was lean on a few people we knew to get some ends tied up and it would all come together.
Blake, Ethan, and I hit up the Christmas shop in town before we headed to the hospital. Owen was already making phone calls while Harper was readying himself to go look at some things with Melinda, which meant the three of us were also the decorating crew. I could tell Ethan and Blake were already getting tired from all the running around and the planning, so I stayed behind and headed to the cafeteria. I figured we could all use some coffee and I knew Kyra would want a cup as well.
But as the elevator doors were closing to take me to the cafeteria, I saw a small little arm jut through and stop the doors.
And I recognized the person attached to it.
“Hey there, Kyra,” I said, smiling.
She immediately walked into the elevator beside me, obviously dodging Blake and Ethan along the way.
“Are you all right?” I asked.
I could see how exasperated she was. I could see the worry filling up her eyes. I could see the way her hands were shaking and hear the way she was taking shallow breaths. She was stressed beyond her wildest dreams and the moment the doors closed, she was suddenly in my arms.
She locked her hands around my neck and thrust her lips upon mine. The elevator lurched to life, dragging us down to the main floor while I pinned her against the wall. I wrapped my arms around her and kissed her furiously, allowing my tongue to slip between her lips as she moaned into me. I could feel my cock growing underneath my pants and all I wanted to do was help her to release the tension I knew she was holding in her body.
“I just feel… stifled,” she said in between kisses.
The elevator halted to a stop, and I reluctantly had to let her go.
“Then why don’t we go get you some fresh air?” I asked breathlessly.
I escorted her out of the elevator and down the hallway. The coffee could wait while the guys were decorating the room. The only thing that mattered to me right now was tending to Kyra. I placed my hand on the small of her back and led her through the hospital, but the moment we stepped outside, she began to shiver.
I pulled her tightly into my body to keep her warm and she gladly leaned into me.
“Take a few deep breaths, but we can’t stay long,” I said. “It’s too cold out here for you to be hanging around without a coat.”
“I know. I just feel so cramped. I can’t imagine how my father feels right now. I just wish he was home for Christmas.”
“I know,” I said. “I know you do. But I promise, all of us will work as hard as we can to make this the best Christmas ever.”
I prayed my brothers could hold up their end of the deal by tomorrow night.
After a few minutes of standing out in the cold, Kyra took my hand and led me back inside. I figured she would head right for the cafeteria for some coffee, but instead, she shoved me into a deserted alcove. She giggled as I tripped over myself, stumbling into a darkened corner of the hospital with her body against mine.
And then I felt her lips again and all was right with the world.
“Please kiss me back,” she said, whispering. “Please help me forget.”
I wrapped my arms around the woman I loved and swirled her around. I pinned her to the wall, feeling her body writhing against mine while my cock sprang to life. Her tongue tasted like ice and snow, the very combination of winter settling upon her tongue. Her fingers flew through my hair, tangling up in knots while my hands gripped her hips. She was the most beautiful woman I’d ever laid my hands on and every single part of me wanted to peel my cock out and take her right up against the wall.
I allowed my fingertips to travel around the hem of her pants, threatening to plunge down to feel for her dripping wet pussy. But before I could, we heard some people walking down the hallway, and I quickly broke off the kiss.
A couple of nurses came walking by, talking to themselves while they passed right by us, oblivious to the world. I couldn’t help but smile when Kyra started to giggle. I looked down upon her with heated eyes, seeing the way her beautiful tits poked through the pads of her bra.
I lowered my lips to her ear so I could whisper her a promise I knew I’d always fulfill.
“I’ll scratch that itch later when we get home.”
I felt her shiver before I pulled her into my arms one last time. I placed a kiss on her forehead, sealing my promise to her before we made our way into the cafeteria. We grabbed everyone large coffees before we made our way up to Mark’s room but the moment we walked in, I almost dropped the coffee in my hands.
And the shock on Kyra’s face was just as evident.
“Landon?” she asked.
