Page 140 of Sinful as They Come
I almost frowned when I remembered how quickly I was ready to throw everything away. And all over my insecurities too. Holly could have anyone she wanted. But out of anyone, she had chosen me. And I was beyond honored.
I pulled Holly that little bit closer, keeping her tight up against my body. Mornings in the trailer could get a little cold. We couldn’t keep the heating on all night or anything. We didn’t have that luxury, but I’d do my best to keep my girl warm myself.
Holly let out a little yawn, and I looked down to see her eyes slowly fluttering open. She whined, nuzzling her nose into my chest. I wanted the moment to last forever: just me and Holly in my bed, without the outside world getting in.
“Morning, Sawyer,” Holly greeted me, her voice as soft and angelic as ever.
I could so get used to this. Her in my arms, her bare body up against mine, her flowery scent unmissable. And itcouldbe like that. I imagined it quickly as I stared at her: years from now we’d be in our own place, waking up on a warm Sunday morning. I’d make love to her. I’d take her right there in our bed and make her cum for me three times before I even let her get up. We’d have breakfast. A late one. Then we’d venture outside – city or country? I was fine with either one as long as she was there. We could have that life.
“Mornin’.” I kissed the top of her head. “I hope you’re not planning on getting up anytime soon, ‘cause I want you right here in this bed with me.”
Holly giggled, burying her face in my chest. “And what do you plan on doing with me during that time, hm?”
I lowered a hand, grabbing her waist under the blankets. “I just wanna look at you all morning. I can’t get enough of that pretty face. And maybe if I’m lucky, you’ll sit on mine.”
She gave me a light, painless slap to the shoulder. “How are you this naughty this early in the day?”
“Can’t help it. I’ve got your gorgeous body laying on top of me. You can’t judge me.”
“Hm, I would never.” She smiled at me. Then she got up, shifting so that she was straddling me.
There she was, sitting on my lap, my cock just inches away from her bare pussy. If she moved just an inch or two, I’d be rubbing up against her. I wondered if she could feel me twitching for her. Her hands landed on my shoulders, and she looked down at me with curious eyes.
“What’s on your mind?” I asked.
“Nothing,” she said quickly. “I wanna do exactly as you said. I just wanna stay with you right here in this bed. All. Day.”
“That’s what you want, baby?”
“Yup. Are you gonna give me what I want?”
I sighed. “I’d love to.But…”
“But?”
“Your parents,” I said bluntly.
Holly rolled her eyes. “My mom knows I’m with you. Don’t worry about them. If they wanted me home, they would have come down here and got me. Do you see them here though? Nope. So… let’s just enjoy this day that we have to ourselves.”
Holly’s hands lowered. She moved them from my shoulders and down my chest, her soft fingers soon ghosting along my stomach. In a second or two she’d be touching my cock. Normally I would have been all for that, but we needed to see her parents whether she liked it or not. It pained me to do it, but I grabbed her hands in mine and shook my head at her.
“We gotta go see ‘em, sweetheart,” I told her softly.
She shrugged lazily. “Why? So my dad can berate you some more? So he can just put you down and make you feel bad about yourself?”
“I’m used to that kinda stuff,” I explained. It sucked, but my whole life I had been hearing people call me all kinds of shit ‘cause of where I came from. “I hated hearing it. And I should have stayed last night. I should have stood my ground. That’s why we’re going to your place today. And me and your dad are gonna sit down and talk this whole thing out. I’m done fighting. He wants someone who’s gonna take care of his daughter. Someone who’s gonna be a man and give her a good life. I can’t give you aperfectlife, Holly, but I swear to God I’m gonna spend the rest of my life making you happy.”
Holly’s lips parted slowly as she blinked at me. And a second later, I saw her pretty brown eyes turn wet. Fuck, first thing in the morning and I was already making her cry.
“These are happy tears,” she said with a little laugh, wiping at her eyes. “That’s just… Sawyer, you’re the sweetest guy. I want my dad to see this side of you. The kind, gentle side. He didn’t want to see it last night. I just want him to accept you.”
My hands landed on Holly’s cheeks, my thumbs reaching up to wipe at her tears. “I’m gonna show him. I’m gonna prove it to him. I can be the man that you deserve. I don’t care how long it takes for him to realize it. Idon’t care if it takes me the rest of my life. That doesn’t matter to me.”
Grabbing Holly’s hands, I kissed either one of them before I pulled her into my arms. I held her tight. As tight as I could. My arms squeezed at her, wondering if her parents were at home packing her stuff, getting ready to ship her off somewhere after last night.
Even if that was the case, I would still find her. I would always find Holly. Even in the busiest city on Earth…
“Did you mean what you said last night?” I asked lowly. “About me moving with you to New York?”
