Chapter 7

Lucy

A happy sigh escapes as I close Liam's door. He's out like a light after getting tucked in by both of us, excited that he now has his own room. He bounced between the toddler bed and the twin bed that was mine until he decided he wanted to sleep in his bed because Beary might get scared sleeping in the new one. Jayden was amazingly patient with it, and it warms my heart to know my baby boy is safe with him.

"Think he'll stay asleep?" Jayden asks, pulling me back into his hold, his lips pressing a soft kiss to my temple.

"Yeah, he's used to going down and sleeping by himself. He does it at Mrs. Holmes', daycare, and even when I put him down in the old place. It'll be okay," I assure us both, tilting my head so his lips can glide over my neck. His chest is pressed tight against my back, letting me feel his arousal snug against my ass, and I love it. I love him more than I ever realized.

"It's been a long day so how about an early night? I can hold you until morning, and then I'll get up with Liam, let you sleep a bit longer," he suggests and god that sounds amazing, but there's still a lot to do before Monday. "The rest of my stuff is already packed, and Brad said he'd drop it off tomorrow afternoon, so I don't have anything else to do there other than turning in my keys on Monday. I'll handle cleaning your old apartment tomorrow while you spend time with Liam and then it'll be ready to hand over the keys. We can take our time unpacking. I can always come home and do some of it when I'm done with classes before you and Liam get home."

"How did you know what I was going to say?" I ask, amazed at how easily he could read me.

"Because I checked out what all needs to be done when you move out of an apartment and since you've been the responsible adult the last few years, I knew that you'd put it on yourself to do it all. You're not alone in this anymore, Luce. I may not be as responsible as you've been, but I'm not about to put more shit on your shoulders by making you handle my crap or take care of me too, baby," he adds, turning me in his hold and the look in his eyes tells me it's true. "Working instead of just going out and partying taught me a lot and the rest came because I had goals which required dedication to reach. I knew I'd need certain grades and test scores and things to put on my application to make me stand out so I could even get in here, so that's where my head's been the last three years. Doing everything in my power to find a way back to you. I promise, I'm not going to create more work for you, baby. I'm not some idiot kid just playing around until I get bored, or it gets to be too hard. I grew up the past few years in a different way than you, but also in a different way than others my age have.

"Some of the guys I was friends with just got older, but I wasn't going to risk you laughing in my face if I found you and told you I wanted to be your man. You had a three-year head start here, I needed to catch up if I had any chance at proving to you that I wasn't talking out my ass or just wanting to live out some fantasy. That night at the party, even though I was drunk —that was the fantasy. The night at your house, us in your bed—that was real. It became completely real when you said I was too young to actually feel what I did for you. That it was just in my head. With that and then losing you entirely when you left town…that was the catalyst. I wasn't about to walk back into your life acting like a kid still because you deserved to have someone be your man—no matter how old I'm not."

"Jayden…" His name comes out on a sigh, warmth flooding me, and I don't want to wait another minute to be his, for him to be mine. "Where did you put that bag from the pharmacy?"

"In the nightstand, but that's not…"

I don't let him get the words out. I know he wasn't just trying to get me to sleep with him with his word, and that's exactly why I want this—and him. I reach up on my tiptoes, pulling his head down to mine, capturing his lips with a deep kiss until he picks me up, moving us down the tiny little hall and into our room.

He remembers to shut the door and I'm thankful for that when he whips my t-shirt over my head, his hands sliding up to the back of my bra and has it out of the way before I can suck in a breath. My hands aren't nearly as slow as my breathing and they push his shirt up his chest, until he lets go of me and lets me pull it off him as his hands push my leggings down, tossing them aside as he lays me back onto our new bed.

"Fuck baby," he groans, his eyes roaming all over me, seeing the tiny little silvery marks on my stomach from carrying Liam. He leans down, kissing each one before moving up my body, capturing my nipple with his mouth making me arch fully into him. His teeth nibble on the tight bud, his hands sliding down me, touching and teasing until I almost scream from the need he arouses inside me.

"Jayden…" I moan when his lips travel down my belly again, going lower until he parts my thighs and settles in between them, his tongue lapping at my dripping pussy.

"I never got to taste you here," he states, his eyes meeting mine, a smile on his lips that sends more heat through me. "I'm not about to make that mistake again."

"Oh fuck," falls when he lowers his face again, his hands sliding under me, lifting me up to his mouth, devouring me it feels like. It brings me right to the edge of an orgasm and I fall right over when his thumb teases my clit, his tongue deep inside me. "Jayden!"

"That's it, baby, give me all of your sweetness," he urges me, still licking and nibbling and teasing my pussy with his amazing mouth. The traces of his five o'clock shadow is rough against my thighs, but I don't care, can't care one little bit that it chafes. Especially not when his fingers move from my clit to my pussy, his mouth sucking on my clit, while he strokes me even deeper with his long digits.

"Jayden, oh god…please!" I cry, my body coiling deep inside, unable to hold my hips still as flashes of white hot pleasure hit then slip away far too fast to grasp onto them. "Please…"

"Yes, Luce, that's it, take what you need," he says, his tongue teasing my clit as his hand moves faster, and my hips rise, a gasp falling when the pleasure comes full force, and it explodes when his teeth nip at my clit, sending me straight back into the bliss.

It's long and deep and intense, and I can barely breathe as his face comes up to mine, kissing all over it, letting me taste myself on his lips. It simply makes me want more and I reach for his hips, pulling him closer to me.

"Wait, fuck baby, wait," he groans pulling back and a whimper falls from me that has his lips kissing softly over my face again, telling me between them, "I need…to get…the protection…"

A moan slides from my throat, but I let him go, shivering when he rolls back my way, a little packet in his hand that he tears open with his teeth. My hands roam over his shoulders, along his back, relishing the feel of the little tremors beneath his skin as his face presses against my throat. The tremors deepen when I kiss his forehead, my hands sliding up to his head, and he lifts it, kissing me wildly.

"Come here," he practically growls at me, making my nipples harden further, and his body moves between my legs, his hand lifting one of them up around his waist and I can feel his warmth right against my lips. His chest brushes against mine, and my body arches towards him of its own accord, his head breaching my opening and I can't stop the moan that falls.

"Jayden…please," I beg, my voice unrecognizable to my own ears.

"Slowly, it's been way too long, I want it to last," he whispers to me as his body claims mine inch by inch. There was no pain like the first time, no hesitation at all inside my body like that night in my bedroom, just pure, absolute heaven flooding me, and I want more, lots more of it.

"Yes, Jayden, oh yes. God, I've missed you," I moan as his body rests against me, his nose brushing mine with every breath he drags in, his chest teasing mine without even meaning to.

"I've missed you too, you, but also this," he adds, his hips moving slowly pulling an intense wave of pleasure from me, making my muscles clench down on his thick length inside me. "Fuck baby, you do that much more and I'm going to come way too fast. You're so warm wrapped around me like this, even if I can't feel just you."

"Oh god, don't," I plead, my body rippling with hunger at the idea of him inside me bare once again. "I want that too, but we shouldn't be reckless."

"No, I know," he agrees, lifting up until his eyes meet mine, a smile on his lips seeing the hunger in my gaze. "I love you."

"Jayden…" The words are there but they won't come further than my throat. I lift my hand to his face, holding him as I reach up, putting all of it into my kiss until neither of us can hold back any longer.

His body buffets against mine, building me higher and higher as his eyes stay locked on mine. There's so much in them, millions of things he wants to say, and I can feel all of them. It sends me higher than before and I break as the sweetest tenderness I've ever seen melts into his gaze before he lets out a deep, guttural moan, shaking as it comes over him at the same time.

Our breath is hot and heavy, slipping between us as we come down. His lips press soft kisses to my face, taking away tears I didn't know had fallen, as my hands cling to him, not wanting him even an inch away from me.

"That was…"

"Everything," he finishes for me when I don't even know how to begin to describe it.

"Yes, it was everything," I agree, smiling even as he pulls away, and a blush hits for some strange reason watching him discard the condom.

"We definitely would have put another baby in you if we hadn't used that," he muses, making the blush deepen as he gathers me back up against him. "It was love in every way."

"Mmm," I sigh, snuggling even deeper into his hold until a hard protrusion pushes against my belly, and I can't stop the smile that hits. I lean up, looking down at him with a huge grin, "I thought guys were only good for one round?"

"I'd say it depends on the guy and since I have the love of my life wrapped up completely naked against me, after not being able to hold you or even see you the last three years, it's no surprise that even the sweetest loving didn't entirely expend me."

"So does that mean you can go again?" I tease, laughing when he nips at my breast, a warning in his eyes.

"Baby, I'm a nineteen year old guy that just got his girl back, just made love to her for the first time in three years, and only got off by his own hand during that time. When I can't go again, is when you'll have to worry," he answers, his tone deep and sensual and my entire body is wired. "It's your little pussy you should worry about if you don't stop stroking me like I'm a cat, because this lion will definitely try to tame it."

"Oh fuck me," I moan, my body gushing in response to his mouth.

"With pleasure if you let me," Jayden states, his hands slipping down to grab my ass as I straddle his lap. "You just reach over in the nightstand and grab one of those condom and I'll show you exactly how much I've wanted to fuck you and love you and pleasure you the last three years."

A shiver rolls through me at that, and I don't even try to hide the fact that I want all of that too. My body's craving more, something wild now, but only with him.

I grab one of the little packs and open it, rolling it down his thick length before he can stop me, pulling a moan from him that's deep and sexy and so arousing I can't stop from lifting myself onto that hard length. A gasp slips free once I'm fully settled on him, the sensations completely different somehow.

"You like this better?" he asks, confusing me a bit, but his hand pulls my upper half towards him, and I sink into his kiss as I rock against him. It rubs right over my clit and then inside me, in the perfect spot and I move a bit faster, my breathing tightening quickly feeling the rush of pleasure hitting fast. "Fuck baby, I like this one better," he moans as I break, but his hips don't stop thrusting upward, and his hands keep rocking my hips against him until I'm teetering on the edge all over again.

My body pushes down against him needing it so badly all of me is shaking, and I let out the shout as it comes, flooding me from head to toe as Jayden's hand tightens in my hair, pulling my mouth down to his. He gives me one last hard thrust upward, pulling me tight against him, before his own shout fills my mouth, his body tensing and through the intense waves of pleasure, I can feel his release through the thin material.

I shiver as he pulls out finally, my eyes heavy as I watch him discard the condom, and a little laugh falls when he picks up the packaging for it. "What's so interesting there, hot stuff?"

"Hot stuff?" He leans over me, little trembles still rolling through him which makes me feel incredibly sexy, his brow lifted curiously as I smile lazily at him.

"Yeah, you got a problem with me thinking you're hot?" I muse, smiling beneath the kiss he gives me.

"Nope, just making sure I heard right. It's the first time you've call me anything other than just Jayden, but for the record, I like it and if you hadn't just drained my dick, I'd show you how much. I also was trying to see which kind you grabbed because it felt a ton better than the first one we used," he adds, holding up the wrapper and my brow lift curiously at that. "I got a couple variety packs, they have four different kinds in each, so I figure we should keep score of which we like best."

"That would be anything with you, papa bear," I muse, earning a kiss that keeps me wrapped up all safe and warm the rest of the night.
