More With You (26 page)

“I’m still a little lost here, angel,” I tell her. My mind is racing. Is this other guy me? If not, who? “Was this guy there on Saturday night?” I ask, trying to work this out in my head.

“Yeah, he was.”  She smiles at me and grips my hand a little tighter.  “He actually asked me to go for a walk with him down by the pond.  Turns out that he has, or had, feelings for me too.  We shared the most earth-shattering experience of my life.  He gave me a first for the history books.  He was gentle and sweet, and then we were interrupted by my mother.”

I can feel the back of my eyes burn. All the emotion from the last week is swirling inside of me. She’s talking about me. All I want to do is grab her and kiss her until we are both breathless, but I hold off. I need to hear everything she has to say, and if I kiss her now, there will be no more talking. “What happened next?” I say, my voice hoarse and thick with the love I have for this girl.

“Well, we headed back to the party and he stopped me outside the tent. He told me that what we shared was special to him, that I was special to him. Before I could say anything else, my mom interrupted us. I wasn’t too worried though, because after I said goodbye to my friends, I planned on telling him exactly how I felt.”

“How do you feel?” I ask softly, my eyes never leaving hers.

Hailey sits up on her knees and leans towards me. She takes both of her tiny hands and rests them on my cheeks. “I’m madly in love with you, Aiden. I have been for as long as I can remember. I’m sorry Miles was trying to make you jealous, it was stupid, and I hurt you. I’ll never forgive myself for it. I need you to hear me when I say there is nothing going on with us. Miles is a good friend who thought he was helping. He didn’t know that we had a break through. He just saw you behind us and acted on it.” She leans in closer, her lips hovering close to mine. “I love you, Aiden Emerson. With everything in me, I love you. Please, forgive me,” she pleads.

I lean in the rest of the way and gently press my lips to hers. I pull her into my lap and caress her face. I feel the wetness of her tears. I rest my forehead against hers. “I love you too, baby, so damn much it hurts.” Then I crash my lips to hers, taking everything she’s willing to give.

After we are both breathless, I slow the kiss and hug her tight. “So what does this mean, angel? Tell me what you want. Where do we go from here?” I fire question after question. My mind is racing, and so is my heart. I’m surprised I can even form a question, let alone get one past my lips.

“Well, I hope it means that we’re together now. What I want is you, only you, and where do we go? Hopefully, we move forward together,” she says, still resting her head against my chest. “What does this mean to you, Aiden? Tell me what you want. Where do you think we go from here?” She turns my questions around on me.

“This means you’re mine.  What I want is you, only you.  Always you.  Where do we go?  Well, that’s even easier.  We move forward together and build a life together.  You’re it for me, angel.  I’m irrevocably in love with you.  You’re stuck with me,” I tease as I tickle her side. 

She squirms until she is sitting up, straddling my lap. “I have very fond memories of us this way,” she says with a wink.

“Really?  I don’t think I remember, you might have to demonstrate,” I say, slipping my hands up under her shirt. 

“Oh, I think that can be arranged,” she says, melding her lips with mine. 

Aiden’s hands find my hips and he helps me find my rhythm.  Our mouths are fused together, tongues dueling, and it’s not enough. I want more of him. I want all of him. I break away from the kiss, my chest heaving with excitement. I slowly stand up. I can see the question in his eyes. I reach down, grab his hand, and pull him off the couch. I lead the way down the hall to my bedroom. Aiden stops me in front of his door.

“I need to see you in my bed. I’ve dreamed of that very thing for months. I’ll just hold you if that’s what you want, but I just need you with me…in my bed,” he says, almost pleading.

I reach for the handle and push open the door. Aiden shuts it behind us and fastens the lock. Liam and Allison aren’t here, but better safe than sorry. I walk to the bed and sit down. Aiden comes and stands between my legs. He rests his forehead against mine. “You are so beautiful. Are you really here? Please tell me this is not just a dream?” he asks me, my heart melting at his words.

“I’m here and I’m all yours.” 

His lips find mine.  Aiden picks me up and moves me further onto the bed, never breaking our kiss.  We are laying side by side and I still want more.  I sit up and pull my sundress over my head.  I can see the shock and appreciation in his eyes.

“Hailey, we don’t have to-” I interrupt him with another kiss.  I push his back down on the bed and I straddle his hips. 

“Isn’t this where we left off?” I ask.

He doesn’t answer. Instead, his hands find my hips and he again helps me find my rhythm. I can tell that I’m close; that burning tightness is ready to consume me.  Aiden sits up so we are chest to chest.  He reaches around, unclasps my bra and throws it across the room.  His lips instantly find a nipple while his hand teases and caresses the other.  This is all it takes to throw me into full-blown orgasmic bliss.  I throw my head back and scream out his name. “Aiden!”

This time is more intense and seems to last forever. When I finally come down to Earth, Aiden lays me down beside him and wraps his arms around me. I can feel his hardness through his khaki shorts pressing against my leg. I want to touch him. I want to give him what he just gave me. I want to make him fall apart at the seams.

I reach down, but hesitate. “Can I touch you?” I whisper, afraid that he’s going to turn me down.

He engulfs my cheeks with his big strong hands.  “Baby, you can do anything you want to me.  I’m yours: heart, body, and soul.” 

I feel a rush of heat between my legs, holy shit, the affect those simple words have on me.  Aiden lays on his back and I unbutton his shorts.  I slowly slide the zipper down and gently stroke him through his boxer briefs.  Aiden growls.  I smile at the fact that it’s me he wants, and it’s me that’s driving him crazy.  Aiden lifts his legs to allow me to pull off his shorts.  He takes it a step further, and slides off his boxer briefs and chucks them just like he did my bra.  My eyes widen at the size of him, standing at attention for me.  I take my hand and softly place my fingers around him.  I can feel him pulsating in my hand.  It’s erotic and sexy, and I’m so turned on that I can barely focus.

Aiden gently brushes my hair out of my eyes.  “I have no expectations for tonight.  I would be fine just holding you all night long.  You have to promise me that you’ll stop when you reach your limit,” he says with so much love in his eyes. 
This is really happening!

His words make me want to please him even more, to show him what this is for me.  What he is for me.  I begin to stroke him gently, and by Aiden’s growls of pleasure, I’m doing a good job.  I place kisses up his chest until I reach his neck.  I nip and kiss him there, all the while, continuing to work him with my hand.  Aiden runs his hands down my body until he finds the center of me.  I feel him run his fingers through my folds, and the pleasure of his hands being there is like no other.  This is all new to me, not just loving the man of my dreams, but all of it.  I’ve been as far as kissing and groping under the shirt, but his lips are the only ones that have ever touched my body intimately.  Only Aiden.

I bury my face in his neck, enjoying he sensation that his fingers are causing. “Can I go further, baby? Can I feel you from the inside?” he whispers.

“Please,” I beg him.

He gently slides one of his fingers inside me, and the sensation has me begging for more. “You’re so wet and tight. Has anyone else ever been here, baby?” he asks softy.

“No, Aiden. Please,” I beg.

“Please what? Tell me what you need.”

“More! I need more of you, all of you, now, please.”

He increases his efforts by adding another finger and it feels amazing, but it’s still not enough for me. I want him inside me, all of him.

I place my lips next to his ear. “Make love to me, please, Aiden.”

His hand stills. “Hailey,” he croaks, “I can’t, not yet.” I start to pull away at his rejection, but he grabs a hold and stops me. “Just listen, okay?” I nod my head. “Once I’m inside of you, you’re mine. There will be no turning back. You need to take all the time you need to make sure that this is what you want, because when I make love to you, I won’t ever be able to let you go. You are too fucking important to me, and I love you so damn much, without ever being inside of you. So when I finally am…yeah, you need to be sure.”

“I don’t need time, Aiden. I’ve loved you for a while now and I know you. I know how amazing you are, and I want nothing more than to be yours for as long as you’ll have me.”

“Forever,” he says, capturing my lips with another scorching kiss until we are once again both breathless. 

I pull back and look into his eyes. “Make love to me, baby,” I say, and I can see that he isn’t going to fight me.

“I don’t have anything to protect you. I never planned on this, and I haven’t been with anyone else in over a year…I’m sorry, we can’t,” he says, disappointment in his voice.

“Hold that thought.” I jump out of bed and pull his t-shirt over my head. I rush to my room and dig through my bag. Luckily for him, I knew this is how I wanted things to go and I came prepared. I make a mad dash back to his room, shut the door, lock it, and rip his t-shirt from my body before crawling back in bed with him. I hand him the new unopened box of condoms and smile. “I wanted to be prepared if you were willing to take me back. This isn’t a spur of the moment decision that I’m going to regret in the morning. This is our forever,” I tell him.

Without another word, Aiden opens the box and pulls out a condom. He throws the rest of the box on the floor. He climbs between my legs and sits back on his. I watch in fascination as he opens the little silver packet and proceeds to sheath himself. “You have to promise me that if you need me to stop, you will tell me. You say stop and we’re done. No pressure,” he says softly as he rubs his erection through my folds.

“I won’t say stop. I want you.”

“I’ll go slow. I don’t want to hurt you.”

I nod and he stills his erection at my entrance. He leans down and places a soft, tender kiss on my lips. “I love you, Hailey,” he says as he slowly pushes inside.

There is a sharp burning and I tense at the pain. Aiden pauses, allowing me to adjust to his size and his entrance to my body. “Just breathe, baby,” he tells me. After a few minutes, I relax under the onslaught of his tongue on my neck. Aiden notices. “All right, just a little more and I will be all the way in. I’ll stop once I’m there and give you as much time as you need.”

“Okay.”

Aiden pushes in the rest of the way in one swift movement. He swallows my cries of pain with his kisses. “I’m so sorry, baby. Fuck, I hate that this hurts you.”

I grab his face in my hands. “I want you to make love to me. I’m good. I promise. The pain is gone. Now, all I need is you.”

Aiden studies me to make sure that I am indeed okay, before he rocks his hips into mine.  Pleasure like I have never known consumes me.  I wrap my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck and hold on.

“Baby, I’m sorry, but I’m close. You feel so amazing…can’t…hold…on…much...longer,” he pants.

“Aiden!” I scream as my orgasm tears through me.

“Hailey!” Aiden shouts.  He slows his rhythm until he is completely spent. 

I pull his chest to mine and hug him tight. “Thank you,” I say into his ear. “I love you.”

He pulls back resting his weight on his arms, careful not to crush me.  “I love you.  No going back, Hales.  You’re mine now.”

Holy. Fucking. Shit!
  Never in my life have I felt anything like this.  Being inside Hailey, making love to her, I have no words to describe this feeling, these emotions coursing through me.  I hate to let go of her yet, but I need to get rid of the condom.  I drop a kiss to her forehead.  “I’ll be right back, baby.” I quickly jump out of bed and head to the bathroom.  I dispose of the condom and wet a washcloth with warm water.  I make my way back to the bed and sit on the edge.  I tap her legs softy.  “Open for me,” I say.  She does, no questions asked.  I gently clean her up and toss the washcloth through the bathroom door.  I’m not leaving her again, so that will have to do for now.
