I Thee Wed (Wedding Dreams) (13 page)

“I’ve never appreciated it before
now, but I can promise you we will be spending a lot more time in here,” I
whisper before biting down on her lobe. She grinds on me harder and I have to
take her now.
First time for sex in the pool.
We
will
be doing this again.

I slowly enter her and push all
the way in to the root. She’s
so
fucking hot as she
leans her head back and does something with her muscles so she’s squeezing my
dick tightly. It’s not going to take much to make me come like this.

“Fuck, Lily. What’re you doing to
me?” I pull out and push back in and, if it’s possible, she’s even tighter.
It’s fucking intense.

“Harder, Drew, please.”

Who can say no to that? Not me. I
put my hands on her hips and fuck her hard. Her breathing speeds and she starts
to make these sexy moaning noises that make my thrusts go faster than I thought
possible. I can feel her pussy clamp down on my dick as her orgasm starts and I
fall over the edge with her, screaming her name as I come inside her. I’m glad
I don’t have neighbors close by or they would’ve gotten quite a show.

“Drew.” Lily is breathless as she
says my name and it goes straight to my groin.

“Yes, Lily?”

“That was fucking amazing and we
need to do that again sometime.” She smiles as I lean down and kiss her, which
deepens as we go. I pull back as my dick gets hard again, still inside her.

“How about right
now?”
I ask as I start pumping in and out of her. Lily smiles, nips my ear with her
teeth, and squeezes my cock with her pussy.

Yep, this woman is going to kill
me, but I’m going to enjoy my death.

Chapter

Lily

Waking up in Drew’s bed this
morning was much nicer than it should’ve been. I keep telling myself I can’t
get used to this because eventually he’s going to want me to go. I try to roll
over and notice Drew’s arm is on my hip. He pulls me closer when I move. Since
I don’t really want to wake him, I settle in and have a conversation with
myself about how this is just for his mother, and he doesn’t really want to be
married.

How did my life get to this
point? I’m thirty-two years old, run a fledgling business, and I’m alone. It
shocks me to think I’m turning into the stereotypical cat lady, and I’ve no
idea how to stop it. I also think I’m falling for the man lying in bed with me
and that just can’t happen. He only wants the
illusion
of a marriage,
and I want the fairy tale. Unfortunately for me, he could be the Prince
Charming I’ve been looking for. He’s so sweet, he thinks about what I need, and
he’s a god in bed. What more does a girl need?

I have to stop this right now or
I’ll end up with my heart shattered, and I don’t know how I’d recover from
that. I do know I need to start sleeping in my own room, or this will no longer
be role playing for me. With that thought, I slip out from Drew’s embrace and
out of his bed, determined to get my head on straight and plan what we need to do
today to make a wedding happen in eight days.

Going down the hall to my room, I
start a mental list of the things I want to bring to Drew’s house. Since I’ve
decided I’m not giving up my apartment, I really only need to bring some
clothes, my makeup, and
Nala
. Drew has everything
else I need, so it shouldn’t take too much time to pack and move. Walking into
the en suite bathroom, I look around for a place to put
Nala’s
litter box. There’s enough space next to the toilet and that should be just
fine for her. I smile thinking of all the room in this house and how long it
will take
Nala
to explore it all.
Cat Lady.
Yep, I’ve got to get a life.

I turn on the shower and start to
work on my to-do list for next weekend. First, I’ll look through Drew’s closet
for a suit that will work for the ceremony. It doesn’t have to be a tux, but
I’ll make sure he looks nice for his mom. I already know what I’m wearing, so
I’ll run by the shop and get it so I can have it cleaned. I need to arrange for
my hair stylist, Jimmie, to come over on Sunday morning to do my hair and
makeup. He’s wonderful to me, and I know he’ll do a great job.

The other things on my list are
flowers, a tent, tables, chairs, a deejay for dancing, and some floating
candles for the pool. Oh my God, the pool. Never in my life have I had sex in a
pool, let alone twice in one night. I could really get used to that. Something
about the water and being outside just makes it so much hotter. I shake my
head, trying to get those memories out because I’ll have a hard enough time
focusing on all of this when Drew is around, I don’t need sexy memories in the
mix.

I finish my shower and when I
start to get out, I jump and scream. Drew is standing in the doorway. He’s just
leaning against the door frame, wearing a pair of cotton shorts and nothing
else. Holy hell he’s sexy. I’m just standing in the shower, dripping and naked,
looking at him. I know I should be embarrassed, but this man has made me scream
more in the past few days than in my whole life so I just stand there, frozen,
waiting for him to make a move.

“Good morning, Lily. I woke up
and you were gone. I was worried so I came to find you. I have to tell you that
you look fucking sexy standing in my shower. I just want to climb in there and
fuck you until you scream my name again.”
Fuck! Is he for real?

“As wonderful as that sounds,
Drew, we have things to do this morning. If you want to have this wedding next
Sunday, we have to get things together. Can I take a rain check on that offer
though?” I’m proud of myself for not giving in to his proposal. I want nothing
more than to have sex with this man all day.

“You’re the wedding planner, so
I’ll do what you say. But, you should know, it’s taking all of my self-control
to stay on this side of the room right now. I just want to lick all the water
off you and bury my face in your sweet pussy.”
Are you kidding me? How does
he say such normal things and then turn it into the sexiest thing I’ve ever
heard?

“I want that, too, but we have
work to do. Why don’t you go get dressed, and I’ll meet you in the kitchen?
You’re very tempting and I’m trying to stay strong here.” I give him my best
professional smile and get a towel to cover up.

“All right, Lily. I’ll play it
your way, this time. Next time, I get to have my way with you first.” With that
promise hanging in the air he leaves. My heart’s racing and I’m pretty sure I
now need a cold shower to calm my raging hormones. Damn, that man turns me on
like no other. But I know I have important things to do today, so I try to tamp
it all down and focus on the task at hand.

I dress quickly and head to the
kitchen. I get out a couple mugs and prepare to make myself a cup of coffee.
Drew’s
Keurig
is a dream. Once I get my steaming mug
ready, I sit at the island and start to put my mental list on my phone. I’ve
got our day mapped out and I’m starting to feel excited about it. I finish the
list as Drew walks into the kitchen. He looks so fucking hot in faded jeans and
polo shirt. His hair is still damp from the shower and he’s barefoot. I feel my
cheeks heating up as I look at him from head to toe and back up again. When I
reach his face, I see he’s looking at me with a smirk.

“See something you like?” He
gives me a smile that could light up the city. I blush at being caught ogling
him so blatantly. I decide to try to take control of the situation.

“I’m not sure yet. Do you think
you could turn around so I can get the full picture?” I try to give him an
innocent look, but I’m not sure it’s working.

He laughs and slowly spins
around.
Fuck.
My man is fucking hot.

What?
My man?
Oh, shit, I’ve
got to get this under control.

“Very nice, Mr. Hamilton, I think
you’ll do for now.” I look into my mug to try to hide the lust I’m sure is in my
eyes. I just want to eat him for breakfast, but we have so much to do today.

Drew puts his finger under my
chin, making me look at him. I see my lust reflected back at me. He gives me a
soft kiss before walking to the coffee maker and making himself a cup. It takes
all my control not to sigh and swoon right there.

“So, what’s on our agenda today,
Lily? I know you probably have a list of things you want to get done, so I’ll
be on my best behavior and help you get it done.”

“We have a few errands to run to
try to get things in place. I’ll have a few phone calls to make, depending on
what we’re able to accomplish. I figure on the way back here we can stop by my
place to get some clothes and my cat. How does that sound?”

“It sounds to me like you have it
all planned out. I’ll put my shoes on and we can get going. Did you want
breakfast?”

“I’m not really hungry right now,
did you want something?”

“No, I’m fine. We’ll stop and eat
when we feel like it while we’re out. No problem. I’ll be back down in a few.”
With that he turns and heads out of the kitchen. I do enjoy this view of him as
well. Those jeans are sinful on his ass.

Get a grip on yourself, woman.
You’re turning into a sex-starved teenager.
Shaking those thoughts out of my
head, I put my mug in the dishwasher. It’s time to get this show on the road.

Drew

What is it about Lily that has me
so worked up? It’s like I can’t get enough of her. She’s sexy as hell and I
want to bury myself in her every time I see her. I can’t believe how much I
like having her in my bed, waking up to her being there. Of course this morning
she slipped away too soon. I allowed her to think I was still asleep because I
wanted to see what she was going to do. I wish I knew what she was thinking
because I’m fairly certain I’m falling for her. I know I don’t want her to
leave, and I want to know more about her. The house is finally starting to feel
like more than just a place to eat and sleep.

I can’t get used to this. She’ll
want to go someday and I don’t know if I can risk my heart again. I didn’t
think I’d recover after Jackie. I’ve spent the past several years doing
everything I could to keep my heart out of any type of interaction with women.
I’ve never thought about
more
since Jackie, but I can see a future with
Lily.
Seriously?
If I could, I’d kick my own ass for
thinking like this.

Heading downstairs I realize that
I’ve to start thinking of this like a trial I need to win. Get through next
weekend, see the look on my mom’s face, and then Lily and I can go back to
being whatever we are without all the wedding talk.

“Lily, are you ready?” I call as
I reenter the kitchen. She’s standing on the patio, so I head out to make sure
everything’s okay. “What’re you doing out here?”

“I was just getting a feel for
the space in the daylight. I’m trying to figure out how to set everything up
before we go order what we need. How many did you decide to invite? That’ll
determine how things are arranged.”

“My mother, my
best friend and his wife, and the partners in the firm with spouses.
I think that
adds up to ten. How many are you going to invite?”

“My mom, Sierra,
and maybe my neighbors.
I really don’t have many friends I talk to. I
pretty much keep to myself.
Pathetic, huh?”
She looks
at her feet and seems like she’s going to cry. I don’t do crying women.

“No, that’s not pathetic. You’ve
focused on your business. It’s fine. Let’s just keep it to a few people and
call it done. I have to invite the partners and their spouses, though, or it
would be considered very rude. So, I guess that’s a total of eleven people for
me.”

“In that case, we can have two
round tables that seat eight each. They’ll fit nicely on the patio. With so few
people, do we really need a deejay? Can’t we just have some music on an iPod or
something? We can have dinner after the ceremony and just relax.”

“I think that’s a great idea.
One less thing to worry about.
Are you ready to go?” Of
course, I’m thinking the sooner we get out of here and get done, the faster we
can be back and I can have her naked under me.

“Yes, I think so. Let’s start by
running by my shop. I need to take my dress to the cleaners.”

As we get into the car, I can’t
stop thinking about how normal this all seems, and how much I like it.

We pull up to Wedding Dreams.
It’s the first time I’ve been here when it wasn’t open. My thoughts go back to
the first day I was here and fucked Lily up against the dressing room wall. My
pants are getting tight and I know I’m getting hard. I’ve got to get this under
control.

Lily unlocks the door and I follow
her in. This is a really nice shop. I can understand that the economy sucks,
but she could do a lot better with some funding. I’m glad I’ll be able to help
her. I need to remember to find out what bank she uses so I can pay off her
mortgage and give her some extra to spruce things up. Maybe we can also get her
connected to a marketing manager or something to help her.

She comes back holding a dress
bag. “I’m ready when you are.”

“Where to next?”
I ask as we
head back to the car.

“Let’s run this over to David’s
Cleaners, and then we need to order flowers. I like how Orchid’s Flowers does
wedding arrangements. They’re classy, not overdone, and they can usually do
them at the last minute.”

“That sounds good to me, you’re
the expert.”

Lily

After dropping off my dress, we
head over to the florist. I’ve had my bouquet in mind for years and I never
thought I’d get to have it. What I want is a gorgeous collection of pink and
white peonies tied together with satin ribbon. It’s elegant and understated, but
beautiful and so fragrant.

I talk with Larry, the owner,
about it. “Larry, I want a bridal bouquet made of white and light pink peonies
that are only slightly open, the stems tied together with a wide white ribbon.
I need a smaller one for my bridesmaid and then three boutonnieres to match.
Who is your groomsman going to be, Drew? I don’t think we’ve talked about that
yet.” I’m getting excited just ordering these.

“I think I’ll ask Nick to stand
up with me.”

“Oh, Lily,” Larry says, “You know
peonies aren’t in season right now. I’m going to have to special order them.
When do you need this bouquet?”

“I need it next Sunday. Is that
possible?” I’m holding my breath. This is the only chance I’m going to have to
walk down the aisle, and I know what I want.

“I can probably do it, but it’ll
be expensive.” Larry looks like he knows I’m going to tell him I can’t afford
that.

“Go ahead and order them, Larry.
Cost isn’t an issue,” Drew speaks up. I turn and look at him with my mouth
hanging open.
