Of course his sweet words only made it worse and this time two teardrops slid down my cheeks and pooled under my chin.
“Keep saying sweet things like that and I won’t be able to stop.”
The beaming smile on his face nearly did me in. That, paired with the way he continued to slowly slide in and out of me, was enough to bring me close to the edge.
“I love you.” My words were nothing more than a whisper as my back arched off the bed.
“I love you with all my heart,” was his response and that was all it took.
Apparently slow lovemaking and the aphrodisiac of knowing how much Aaron loved me, was enough to push me over the edge into a non-self-induced orgasm.
It wasn’t like they described in books. There were no fireworks or stars. But my pussy did flutter and warmth flooded throughout my body. I could honestly say I had never felt so happy or relaxed in my entire life. And it wasn’t just a fleeting feeling either.
No, Aaron managed to drag it out for several minutes as his own release hit my inner walls and his body shook on top of mine.
We lay like that for some time until I could feel our combined juices slipping out of me.
“I’m making a mess on your bed,” I told him with a chuckle.
“Our bed.” He pushed himself up onto his forearms and slapped a kiss on my lips. “You’re never going back to that damn guest room again,” he declared.
“But it was designed by me,” I teased.
He looked me right in the eye when he answered. “Damn right it was. This whole house was designed for you because I knew one day I would get you here.”
“You keep saying sweet things like that and this bed is going to be destroyed.” I clenched around his softening cock.
“Give me some time and I’ll take you up on that offer, but I’m not as young as I once was.”
I laughed and then groaned when he slipped out of me; I could feel more of us leaking out of me.
Before I could make my way to the bathroom, Aaron was hopping off the bed and grabbing a towel from the dresser drawer. Very carefully, he cleaned me up.
I just stared at him like I couldn’t believe this was where we were. “Do you have regrets?” I asked out of the blue.
Aaron stopped dead and looked at me. “I have a lot of regrets but you’re going to need to be more specific.”
“I guess in general.” I didn’t really know what I was asking. I didn’t want to have regrets because there’s no way of knowing how our lives could’ve been different. I wanted to think it all would’ve been sunshine and roses but maybe fate had other ideas.
“I regret not asking you out before I left for the Marines. I thought I needed to come back a better man before I told you how I felt, but I see now how that cost us so much time.”
“Do you think we would’ve made it if we started out so young?”
Aaron climbed back into bed so that he was on his side facing me. I mirrored his position. “I want to say yes but a small part of me wonders if the universe knew differently.”
I couldn’t help but nod my head in agreement. “I was thinking the same thing.”
Aaron rolled me over so that he was half leaning over me. His hand grabbed my left one and he started to play with my engagement ring. I loved that he did that.
“Either way, I’m happy we’re here now and I promise to give you everything you ever wanted no matter what it takes.”
I didn’t think it was possible to fall more in love with the man, but sure enough, I did.
I shifted so I was completely under him. “I need you again.”
Aaron didn’t hesitate before once again slowly sliding into me.
