“He is. You should’ve seen him last night, fighting off douchebags and pulling her towards him like she was his,” Ethan says.

“She is mine,” I nearly growl. I know I shouldn’t be possessive, it’s just my friends ribbing me, but I can’t help it when it comes to Ava. I want the whole world to know she belongs to me.

Ethan looks at me with a knowing smile. “I know man, this is just how it felt with me and Lu.” At the mere mention of his girlfriend’s name, he breaks into an even bigger grin. And in that moment, I can see that that’s how I look when I think about Ava. Even though it’s only been a day, I know she is it for me.

We continue chatting for a bit. Luke fit seamlessly into our lives here, a fellow veteran and the perfect delivery man for the brewery. It gives him his necessary time alone but allows us to check up on him once a week.

As the last of the boxes are unloaded, I am overcome with the need to get back to Ava. Even a few hours without her is too many.

“You need anything else?” I ask Ethan.

“Nope. I’ve got it. Go get your girl,” he says with a wink. I just roll my eyes at him before heading out.

I walk to the pizza place around the corner, not wanting to head back empty handed.

An hour later, after waiting for the pizza and running home for a quick shower and a change of clothes, I’m hopping out of the truck in front of Ava’s place. I can see her from the front window, and she looks stunning. Chestnut waves pouring around her face, curled up in a fuzzy blanket on the couch, looking at some kind of plant guidebook.

I am so lucky.

She sees me at the door and waves, a huge grin taking over her face. She jumps up from the couch, tossing off her blanket in the process, and runs toward me. I have just enough time to set the pizza on a side table before she’s in my arms, legs wrappedaround my waist, arms locked around my neck, grin still in place.

I can’t resist her for another second. I seal my mouth to hers in a fiery, passionate kiss. We will have more time for exploratory ones later, right now, I want to taste as much of her as I can. A few hours apart was a few hours too many. I can feel my cock hardening just from this kiss, and I know I won’t be able to resist her for long.

“Need you now,” I say, moving my mouth to her neck as I walk us back towards the couch. She moans in response as I sit down, her legs straddling either side of my thighs.

“Need you too. I missed you today. Is that weird to say?” She grinds against me and I slide a hand down the back of the loose floral patterned silky shorts she’s wearing, gripping her perfect ass when I find she’s not wearing any panties. Again. God, this woman is perfect.

“No. I missed you too,” I say, peppering her face with kisses while working her ass in both my hands. She smiles at that, rubbing her hands up and down my arms, and even that simple motion makes me grow harder. I feel her warmth through my black joggers, and I know I can’t wait a moment longer to have her.

“Lift up,” I tell her, my voice guttural with need. She does as she’s told, lifting briefly off my lap and pulling off her shorts. I take the chance to roll down my own pants, not even bothering to take them off my ankles all the way.

“You think you’re ready to ride, honey?” I ask as she settles back down on my thighs, perfect pink pussy splayed before me. Ilightly slap her clit, eliciting a gasp from her, while I wait for her response.

“What if I’m not good at it?” she asks, cheeks reddening. While I love that she’s worried about pleasing me, I need her to know she will, no matter what she does.

“Trust me, Ave, you’re going to be amazing at it. Now get on me.” I run a hand through her wetness and rub it over my cock, wanting to make sure the drop is as smooth for her as I can.

“Wrap your hand around my cock and line it up with yourself,” I say, grabbing her hips to guide her. She does as she’s told. “Good girl,” I tell her.

She looks pleased at that and begins to lower herself onto me. As she settles fully on my length, I feel like I could come just from the sensation of her warm, wet walls around me, gripping me so tightly it feels like her pussy was created just for my cock.

“God you feel so good, baby. You can start moving when you’re ready.”

“Okay, tell me what you want. Please.” She lets out the last word in a light gasp, like the feeling of just sitting on me is almost too much for her.

“Just do what feels right,” I say, lifting her sweater and taking a perfect tit in each hand, twisting and teasing her nipples. The new feeling seems to spark something in her and she begins slowly swirling her hips.

“That’s it, baby. You’re doing so well.” She looks to where we’re joined and her eyes light with a mix of awe and pleasure. “You like what you see? Like how we look so perfect together?” I takethat moment to drive my hips up to meet her and she moans so loudly I take it as an answer to all my questions.

“Yes,” she says after a moment. “I love the way we look together, the way we feel together.” Her words are disjointed, like she can barely get them out. That’s fine by me, the time for talking has just about passed.

“You ready to come all over my cock, honey?”

“God yes,” she mumbles, head falling back in ecstasy.

“Good.” I take control, grabbing her hips once again and bouncing her up and down on my length, lifting my hips to meet her stroke for stroke. It’s hot. It’s sweaty. It’sfast. But I know it’s what we both need now.

We both explode and I watch as my seed fills her while she pulses around me. It might be the most beautiful sight I have ever seen, her absolutely full of me, head dropped back in complete pleasure.
