“Now tell me all that happened on your date,” she pressed.
“It was amazing…well, except on the way there. Leo told me that we couldn’t do anything because of my dad,” I told her.
“But, when did it all change?” she asked. “I saw the way you both looked at one another. You could definitely tell something happened between you two.” There was a playfulness in her tone.
“When we got to the event, he was jealous. He didn’t like the way guys looked at me or when they talked to me,” I explained. “You should have seen how possessive he got when this one guy, Kevin, who was in the academy with Leo, started talking to me. Kevin creeped me out though. He seemed like a real asshole.”
“I wish I was there.” Nina chuckled.
“Then we kissed…then decided to stay at the hotel because of the storm?—”
“Mmhmm,” she murmured.
“It was storming,” I defended, laughing. “Anyway, then we fucked.”
“And?”
“It was fucking amazing!” I squealed. “Leo’s amazing, and I haven’t felt this way about any guy before.”
“I can’t believe my little Cece gave up her v-card to her fantasy guy. Lucky girl,” Nina said with a naughty tone.
“I can’t believe I finally did.” I sighed. “It was definitely worth the waitandwe didn’t regret it at all. He told me that I was his.”
“I’m happy for you,” Nina told me.
“Thanks, Nina.”
“So, how are you guys going to tell your dad?” she asked.
I let out another sigh. “I don’t know. That’s something we’re trying to figure out.”
I hope Leo and I could figure it out soon, and my dad would be okay with my relationship with his best friend.

LEO
It’s been a month of Cecilia and I sneaking around. I feel like I’m a teenager again. It’s been exhilarating with the fear of getting caught by Michael, and I haven’t felt this alive since I was younger. It’s all because of Cecilia. She makes me so happy, and I can’t get enough of her. We do our best to see each other after work to have dinner and if we have days off together. This week, though, our schedules haven’t lined up and we haven’t seen each other for five days. I’ve missed her so much, but I was going to see her soon.
We both just got off work and have the weekend off. It worked out perfectly. She was sleeping over my place tonight, bringing Oreo over so Skip can hang out with her. Our pups are too cute and love each other, just as much as I was starting to fall in love with Cecilia. I’ve always loved her, but that type of love was not the love that I felt for her now. This was the type of love that some people were afraid of, the type where you give your entire being to your soul mate—and I think Cecilia is that for me.
I pulled out the salmon and vegetables from the fridge for our dinner tonight. Skip sat down, looking up at me as I washed the zucchini, summer squash, and potatoes.
“Are you excited, boy? Our favorite girls are coming to visit us.” I grinned before dried off the vegetables.
Before I could start prepping and cutting the veggies, the doorbell rang, echoing in the house.
Skip barked, running toward the front door. I followed behind him and looked through the peephole. Smiling wide, I opened the door, face-to-face with the woman of my dreams. Oreo rushed inside and ran around with Skip. I pulled Cecilia inside, kicking the door shut as I hooked my arms around her waist and tugged her toward my body, her arms draping around my neck.
She tilted her head up, gazing up at me with adoration, her chocolate brown eyes sparkling as she flashed that beautiful smile of hers. Butterflies fluttered in my stomach and my heart melted.
“Hi, baby. I missed you,” I told her.
“I missed you, too,” she said before I leaned down and captured her lips with mine.
Her touch and kisses sparked something inside me that made me feel alive, awakening my senses. My cock quickly hardened, a bulge forming in the front of my pants and pressing against her belly. Only Cecilia had that effect on me.
Cecilia moaned into the kiss, then our tongues twisted around one another. I kissed her like it’s been months since I saw her. I needed my fix before I could pull back and release our lip lock. Her hands ran through my hair, her nails scraping along my scalp. A shiver went down my spine and a low growl rumbled in my chest.
