Page 80 of The Pinkie Pact

Yes, Iwasmad, just didn't want to admit it. I didn't say anything while we both finished off our pizza then threw out our napkins.

Another thing occurred to me at that moment. "Why didn't you tell me?"

She inhaled deeply before answering. "I didn't want you to get mad at Kara."

Well, she kind of nailed that one, didn't she? "It's just not right. It's not safe."

"I can take care of myself, Kieran."

"I know you can."

Looking out the dark window across from us, she thought for a moment. "Plus, I know you probably didn't like Amir just now. But now that you know what's really going on... well, he's a really nice guy and he's been in here every night I've been in here. So it's not like I'm all alone. And I'm sure he'll be right back here tomorrow with me."

Fuck, I didn't like this one bit. I wished to God I didn't have to leave again because I'd insist on her staying at my place from now on, and I was suddenly feeling sick about it all.

Sky reached up to touch my cheek. "Kier, can we not worry about it right now? After what we just shared?"

I closed my eyes for a second, breathing slowly. When I opened them, those crystal blue eyes stared into mine, silently pleading with me, and I decided to just let it go for now. "When I get back in a few days, we'll deal with this. Okay?"

Smiling, she nodded. "Yes, sir."

I couldn't help laughing which quickly faded as she took my cheeks in both of her hands and leaned closer. This girl literally took my breath away, especially as the events of the last part of the evening flashed through my mind. Right when I was about to make a move, the door opened and a girl stumbled in.

Fucking study lounge.

She waved at Sky. "Yay, the other couch is freeeeeee."

"Help yourself," Sky said.

The girl tried to move the couch but instead collapsed on the ground, laughing. I stood up and helped her move it to the far end of the room while Sky spread out the blankets and pillows on "our" couch.

Once I lay down, Sky turned off the lights and headed over to settle in front of me, her back against my chest. She was absolutely right. It was a tight squeeze, but I didn't mind one bit. I loved it.

I placed my arm around her stomach as she grasped my hand. Inhaling the scent of her hair, I let myself feel every part of her that was touching me. Maybe that was a mistake because her rear was nestled right into my groin in some kind of exquisite torture. And whenever she moved, she brushed against me, making me think of earlier.

"Thanks," she whispered.

"For what?" I asked.

"For keeping me company in here tonight."

I kissed the back of her head, her hair tickling my lips and face. "I want to spend every night with you, beautiful."

"I'd really like that," she murmured sleepily, my heart stopping at her words.

She had no idea what she did to me, what I was feeling already for her. My life had completely changed the moment she'd entered it. For the better. And the future opened up for me in a way it never had before. I was actually excited about it, actually thrilled to see how Sky and I could fit together.

Not only was she exciting as hell, but she was sweet, kind, and considerate about all who surrounded her. She cared about this world, about so many of the same things I cared about. And the passion inside her for life, for her friends, for people, was contagious and lit me up, made me want to be better, do better.

As her breathing grew steady and she stopped any squirming, I thought about what had happened between us earlier... more like what she'd done for me, to me. From the beginning, when she'd touched me so tenderly, massaging me, trying to help me relax, she'd completely melted me inside.

And then, when she'd admired me, stroked me, and taken me into her mouth, good God, she'd absolutely blown me away. When I could, I had watched her, and besides driving me crazy, she'd seemed to actually like it. That was incredibly important to me now. She'd seemed happy to do that... unless she was acting. But I didn't think Sky was the type of person to do something she didn't want to do.

I hadn't wanted to come in her mouth, but when I tried to warn her, she actually held onto me even tighter with no signs of letting up. I shuddered thinking about it, remembering how insanely good she'd made me feel.

Never in my life had I felt like that before—completely out of control, completely in the hands of this beautiful girl in my arms. She'd made me feel absolutely incredible, wanted,desired. My mind couldn't even handle... couldn't even grasp how amazing the experience had been.

And all I'd wanted to do after was please her the same way she'd pleased me. God, pleased wasn't even the right word. More like blown my mind, rocked my existence, sent me to heaven. I desperately wanted all that for her.
