Page 50 of Only Ever Yours
Her shoulders sagged.
Wait, hadshechangedhermind?
“What’s up?”
Hollis let out a hard exhale. “I feel like we’ve put a whole lot of pressure on tonight, like I’m about to lose my virginity all over again and everything has to be perfect…” She paused. “I don’t know—maybe we should just have told Finn and had everything out in the open instead of all this sneaking around.”
I placed a finger under her chin and tilted her face upwards to me. “We could have, but at least we can have some time together to make sure that it’s what we both really want. And itwillbe perfect. Because we do want this, right?”
Her clear blue-green eyes stared at me, and she nodded.
“This is new territory for both of us,” I began. “It’s only recently we’ve given in to whatever it was that’s been bubbling under the surface between us for what feels like the longest time. Of course, there’s pressure on it. You’re my best mate’s sister, and I’m not meant to feel like this about you. But I can’t help it. I want you, Hollis. So badly, it hurts.”
This time her breath was shaky. “Me, too. It feels different, Jase. Thinking of you as something other than Finn’s friend.” She lowered her gaze as I let go of her. “And I guess I’m scared you’ll find it too hard and…” Her voice trailed off. “There’s a lot at stake here.”
I knew that. Lifelong friendships were about to be turned upside down if, no, when, Finn found out. I was ready for it. I was prepared to risk anything for Hollis.
“How about we enjoy tonight and see where it takes us?” I wanted more than one night, and deep down, I knew Hollis did, too. If taking the pressure off this current situation meant we got to where we wanted to be, then I was prepared to do it.
Again, she nodded. “Do you want to go down for dinner? I’m sure we can explain why we’re late.”
I shook my head. “I don’t think I want to share you with anyone else. How about we get our food sent up here?” I paused. “Now or later?”
“What do you mean?”
“Well, I mean I’m hungry but not necessarily for food.” I raised my eyebrows and winked, hoping she would catch on.
Her mouth formed a little ‘o’, and immediately, my mind went to the gutter, wondering if she did that when she came.Hopefully, I’m about to find out.
When she didn’t respond or move, I decided to take control. Gently, I took her hand and pulled her towards me. Without her heels, she was a lot shorter than me and had to lean up on her tiptoes to kiss me. I dropped my hands from her face to her arse, lifting her slightly to give her a little bit of extra height.
Believe me, the fact I also got to hold onto her butt made it even more worthwhile.
Her lips met mine, softly at first, then more insistent, her tongue pushing into my mouth, exploring. My fingers dug into the flesh of her arse, and her hips pushed against me, her breasts crushing into my chest. Hollis pulled back, and my first thought was that something was wrong. Shestared directly at me as she reached around her back and unzipped the green dress she wore, letting it slide down her body and pool on the floor around her feet. With a defiant tilt of her chin, she placed her hands on her hips, and I focused, open-mouthed at the sight in front of me. This wasn’t Hollis in a bikini when we’d been on holiday; this wasn’t us messing around in shorts and T-shirts when we were teenagers. This was Hollis, standing in front of me infuck me, how sexyblack, lacy lingerie. Her erect nipples pushed against the sheer lace of her bra. I swallowed.
“Help me out here; I feel a little underdressed,” she teased, reaching out to tug on the hem of my T-shirt.
I didn’t need asking twice, fisting the material and pulling it over my head, before kicking off my boots and socks and tugging my jeans down, tossing them on the carpet to join her dress.
“Are we really doing this?” I managed.
Slowly, she nodded, stepping towards me and stopping close enough for her body to touch mine. Already aroused by the sight of her almost naked, the light brush of skin-on-skin had me growing harder. I felt like a virgin all over again. Threading my fingers through hers, I led her towards the bed. I sat on the edge and gestured for her to straddle me. She knelt on the mattress, knees on either side of my thighs. I cupped her arse again, angling her body to fit to mine, already feeling my dick start to twitch.
“Mmmm.” Hollis wriggled into position, dropping gentle kisses along my collarbone.
More than anything, I wanted to take my time, now that we were finally alone, but I wasn’t sure I could. I moved my fingers, lazily making circles against the soft skin of her outer thighs before slowly sliding inwards. She gasped as I grazed the material of her knickers.
“Jase!”
Heart beating so hard, I was sure she would be able to hear it, I tilted my head to look up at her. “Do you want me to touch you?”
Her hooded blue-green eyes told me everything without saying a single word.
“You can always tell me to stop,” I whispered, rubbing my thumb against the damp material, holding her gaze.
Hollis sucked in her lips, trying to control her breathing. “Don’t. Stop,” she finally murmured, reaching down to cover my hand with hers, guiding my movements to where she most needed them, a gentle moan escaping her.
My cock pushed against my boxers, painfully hard now. This was everything I’d ever wanted, and I didn’t want it to be over too soon. I had to exercise some restraint. Capturing her chin with one hand, I slid the fingers of my other hand underneath the flimsy material, instantly feeling how slick she was. “Fuck, you feel so good,” I muttered, circling her clit, causing her to squirm against me as I dipped a finger into her pussy.
