With my impending orgasm still tightening my muscles and lighting my skin on fire, my reactions are beyond delayed and still very much confused.
"If this is your attempt at a proposal, I swear to God I'm going to—"
"Not a proposal," he assures me. "Just asking how you feel about it."
"While you're going down on me?" I practically shout—outraged not by the idea of marrying him, but because the sneaky bastard waited untilnowto ask me. Because he knows I'm at my most honest when I'm lost in the lust he can so easily sweep me up in.
He only shrugs in answer, then moves his thumb down to my entrance so he can slowly slide it inside me.
"You aresuchan asshole," I complain, the words sounding breathless as I drop my head back to the couch. "We only just got past our relationship hang-ups. Marriage shouldn't even be a topic."
And I know what he wants to say. Because I know Aiden better than I know myself these days, and he never goes a single day without letting me know how he feels about me. How infatuated he is with me, how much he appreciates my body and the physical attraction between us—how much he loves getting inside my brain and finding out new things about me.
How much he loves me.
So I know exactly why he's asking about marriage and babies. It's not because those are things he wants right now—or even ever—but because every day he looks for new ways to love me. To make me happy.
"Alright fine, we'll put that conversation on hold," he says after another pause. "What about moving in together?"
And then his tongue goes back to circling my clit.
For a moment, I revel in the feeling of his mouth once again pulling pleasure from my body. Eventually, my eyes close and my orgasm begins to climb.
When I'mright there, he pulls away just long enough to growl my name.
And just like that, the command has me blurting out my honest answer.
"Yes, I want that." As I balance on the precipice of huge sensations, the words rush out of me. "I love the idea of starting my day with you every morning, and getting to sleep next to you every night. I want to live with you because I don't ever want to go another day without you."
And at my whispered confession, pulled out of me in a blur of pleasure and happiness, he gives me everything I could want—and more.
I come with a gasp, my legs tightening around his head as he licks me through an explosive release. I've barely come down from it when he straightens up and hurriedly pushes his pants over his hips. He drives inside me with a possessive growl.
Dropping his chest to mine and settling his weight on his forearms beside my head, I close the distance between us by wrapping my legs and arms around him and pressing a greedy kiss to his lips. More and more I like feeling anchored to Aiden, a habit that's a far cry from how much I used to want space.
"Perfect girl," he groans, his thrusts increasing in their intensity. "Mygirl."
"Yes," I gasp. "Always."
We're both instantly on the verge of another release. Anytime he gets lust-drunk confessions out of me, he always becomes immediately insatiable for me. Just as I do for him.
"If we move in together, I'm it for you," he says, his gaze focused on my face. "I'll never,everhold you back, but you'll be stuck with me by your side for everything that comes after this. I love you too much to ever let you go."
And the only word that I can answer with is a whispered, "Good."
It's enough to catapult us both into oblivion.
He captures my mouth with a searing kiss, groaning into my mouth when he feels my body clench around him. Then he's driving once, twice, before his hips still and I feel him empty inside me.
It's a claiming I never expected to love as much as I do.
He drops his forehead to mine, his labored breaths mingling with mine. Then… a huge grin stretches across his face.
"So when am I moving in? Or are we going to look for a new place?"
I let out a surprised laugh. "God forbid anyone tries to hold you back from what you want. Your single-mindedness is intense."
He shrugs and drops another kiss to my lips. "It took me forever to find you. Sue me for not wanting to wait any longer to spend every day with you."
