I raise my head and press a kiss to her forehead. “I told you right from the start that I’m going to make this right. You’re my life and my future and I’m not going to do anything to screw that up again.” I press a hand over her heart. “This is where I belong now. My past is buried in the past and I’ve got you to thank for that. You, Noah, and Henley, you all fought for me when I’d given up. I should have had more faith, but I was scared. You all did what I couldn’t do and because of that, you’ve given me a chance to open myself up and move on.”

“I don’t want to push you away anymore,” she whispers.

“You’re ready for this?”

“How could I not be? I’ve been in love with you since I was eleven years old. Having you in my life is what makes me happy.”

Relief settles into me. I’ve heard her say those words over and over again, but hearing them while knowing that she’s finally letting me back is the best fucking feeling in the world. I’ve got my girl back and after four long years of pain, she’s finally letting me come home.

My hand curls around the back of her neck and I hold her close while looking into those eyes that have always lived in my dreams. “I love you, Tully.”

Her eyes close and then finally, her lips are on mine. Tully’s arms curl around my neck as she pulls herself impossibly closer. Her tears continue falling down her face as she kisses me, but they quickly begin to dry up.

Tully pulls back ever so slightly before looking me in the eye and slowly peeling her shirt up over her toned body. My hands instantly take her waist and the second my fingers brush against her bear skin, warmth spreads through me like wildfire.

Tully reaches around herself and unclasps her bra before allowing the red fabric to slide down her arms. She bares herself to me as she silently watches me and I’ve never seen anything so fucking beautiful.

I pull her back in and my lips find the sensitive skin of her neck as her fingers weave into my hair. I trail my lips down over her collarbone and down to the curve of her breast. Her skin is so soft, just as I’ve always remembered.

My lips run over her nipple before I suck it into my mouth and tease my tongue over it. Tully’s back arches and her head falls back as a breath escapes her. Her fingers fist into my hair and I find my own digging into the skin of her waist, holding her tight as she rocks her hips forward, grinding herself over me.

How did I get so lucky?

My head is telling me to slow things down and make this moment last all night long, but my body is desperate for her touch. I’ve been starved of her for way too long and if I don’t get a taste soon, I might not make it.

I find her lips and pull her body harder against mine, loving the feel of her bare tits pressed up against me which is when I realize that it can’t happen like this. This is the moment that’s going to kickstart the rest of our lives together and something tells me that starting it on my best friend’s couch where he naps during the day probably isn’t the way to go about it.

My hands curl under her ass and I lift us both up before walking down the hallway. “What are you doing?” Tully questions, tightening her legs around my waist.

“You’re not some cheap screw, Tullz. If we’re doing this, then we’re doing it right.”

She melts into me as I push my way through the door of the spare bedroom and before I’ve even finished placing her down on the dresser, her hands are already pulling at my shirt.

My shirt is tossed across the room and she grabs the front of my jeans and yanks me forward, holding me close while locking her legs around me. I kiss her as she releases the button on my jeans and pushes them down my hips.

My erection springs free and she doesn’t waste a second wrapping her tight fist around me, pumping up and down while running her thumb over the tip.

I’m seeing fucking stars.

I can’t physically go any longer without touching her.

Making quick work of her jeans, she pushes up off the dresser and I tear them down her legs, dropping them to the ground somewhere near the rest of our clothes. Tully’s legs instantly wrap around my waist, pulling me in once again while taking hold of what’s hers and getting back to work.

My fingers trail up her thigh and I grin as I leave a wake of goosebumps behind. I cup her pussy before sliding my fingers between her folds and running my fingers over her clit.
