Page 14 of Always Yours

I cut her off. “He’s cute and he likes you so at least kiss him.” I hang up before she can say another word and switch over to the other line. “Hello,” I answer, but of course I sound desperate.

“El, hey, sorry about today,” Will’s voice says and as soon as I hear his voice a smile pulls at my lips and relief washes over me. When I catch a glimpse of Alice’s face she rolls her eyesand pretends to make out with herself, her arms wrapping around her body as she opens her mouth.

“Hey, Will. No problem. Everything okay?”

“Yeah, I had an exam today that I totally forgot about. It ran a little long and I meant to text you.”

“How’d your test go?” I ask, genuinely interested.

“Mmmm, I don’t know. Probably not so great,” Will admits and I find this hard to believe. In the short time we’ve been together I’ve noticed most everything comes naturally to him, especially school.

“Why would you say that?”

“Well,” he says, pausing a second and then he laughs a little and adds, “I’ve spent all my time with this insanely hot and very distracting girl. Not much studying going on.”

“Will,” I practically shout, suddenly feeling terribly guilty that I’ve monopolized his time. “You need to study. You can tell me to shove off…”

“Never,” Will interrupts and as much as I want to spend time with him, I don’t want to be the reason he fails a class. “How about you and me have dinner tonight?”

“Only if you don’t have any exams coming up that you need to study for.”

“Nothing coming up so your ass better be here soon.”

It takes me about two seconds to slip into my boots and bundle up for my walk to Will’s apartment. It’s freezing outside, but that doesn’t stop me from walking several blocks to get there and doing it in record time.

Before I even have a chance to knock on the door, Will’s opening it and dragging me inside, his arms slipped around my waist, his lips connecting with mine.

“It was weird not meeting you after class,” he murmurs between kisses.

I nod my head in response unable to form a coherent thought as Will’s fingers slide under my shirt and begin to unhook my bra. With our bodies still connected, we walk together to the bedroom, our hands groping at the clothes that still cover the skin we both long to touch.

We finally separate, both of us tugging off our clothes and I lay back on the bed. Will stands in front of me and removes his shirt and I take him in. His body is perfection, all well defined muscles of his chest and stomach and arms; all of it created by his time spent in the pool. Something I learned about him our first night together, and although he no longer swims competitively, he still finds himself in the pool on a regular basis.

Suddenly, he’s on top of me, sliding his hands underneath me. Will’s lips return to mine as his tongue slowly slips into my mouth. I move against him, but he slows everything down, kissing every part of me, my lips, my neck, my breasts. I need him inside me. Reaching between us, sliding my hand around him.

“Will,” I plead. “I want you now.” I’m desperate for him especially after the panic I felt when he didn’t show up after my last class. It’s only been a short time, but I can’t imagine my life without him.

His touch is driving me crazy in ways I never imagined. I shift against him until he’s between my legs and for a moment I find relief. But within seconds the need returns. “Will, please,” I beg again, my arms pulling him against me. Will stops, his fingers tracing down my cheek to my neck and between my breasts. His eyes are heavy, his lips swollen and when I open my mouth in one last attempt, he silences me with a kiss.

He pulls away, smiling softly. “You’re all I want right now. I’ve wanted you since the moment I saw you.” His words makeme smile because I’m sure I was a total wreck the night we met. I guess he could see through all of that.

He leans down and kisses me again, trailing his lips along my cheek, he stops at my ear. “I need to feel you. I need to hear you moan when I’m inside you.”

“Holy shit,” I mutter as Will’s mouth returns to my body. Will kisses his way down my body, stopping occasionally along the way and his fingers brush against me, yet never entering. I’m squirming again. I’ve never been so turned on like this.

He runs his tongue where his fingers just touched. My body is burning and the coolness of his tongue only makes the ache worse. He traces his tongue up my body, his teeth grazing my breast. I gasp, burying my hands in his hair and practically begging him to fuck me.

Reaching into the nightstand, he pulls out a condom and positions himself between my legs.

He waits and I want to cry out.

“Will, please,” I beg, grinding against him attempting to ease the need, and in that moment his hips move and he’s inside me.

He’s quick and deliberate and neither of us can hold out, coming together our labored breathing the only sound filling the room.

We’re lying together in his bed, both of us sated and exhausted, and knowing we can’t always go on like this, but enjoying the fact that we’re both so into each other.

Will’s hand is running up and down my back as I rest my head on his chest, the sound of his heartbeat slowly playing in my ear.
