Here Without You (Red Hook 4)

Tony was kneeling on the street and shining his light on Matt’s flat tire. Matt kneeled next to him and looked.

“We have a problem, bro. There’s a slug in your tire.” Tony informed his brother with a voice of steel.

Matt felt furious. If he had crashed, Holly could have been injured. That pissed him off greatly. Tony stood up and calmly looked up at all the buildings. He pointed one out. “Whoever it was had to be up on a roof watching and waiting. What do you think? A scare tactic? I have a feeling they’re gone by now.”

“My money is on Gerald or one of his drug buddies. Now I am super pissed off,” Matt muttered, feeling aggravated with these little games they were playing. “I’m sure it was a scare tactic. Whoever it was could have shot out a window and forced us to crash.”

“L

eave your truck here. I’ll call it in.” Tony pulled out his cell phone. “I’ll take you to Holly’s house. I have Alicia at the pool hall waiting for me and I don’t want to leave her alone for long.”

Matt arched his eyebrow, totally blown away by the news. He forgot all about his aggravation with Gerald. His brother never dated. “You and Alicia?”

“We’re friends. That’s all,” Tony stated, daring Matt to argue.

Matt patted his brother on the back. “That’s a start. Just don’t wait a year to make a move, or it’ll be my turn to tell you what an idiot you are.”

Matt led Holly to Tony’s truck. She looked around nervously. Matt hated that their romantic vibe was destroyed. He could punch Gerald’s lights out just for that. Tony dropped them off at Holly’s house. He told Matt Noah was having the truck towed and the bullet taken out for evidence.

Matt walked with her up her porch stairs. He had hoped to spend the night with her, but he didn’t want to presume. She had just agreed to give him a second chance and he wanted to do it right this time.

Once inside, Holly looked at him as she set her purse down on the coffee table. He was so glad to see the pain absent from her eyes. He never wanted to see it there again.

“Will you stay the night with me?”

He swallowed hard and nodded, hoping he looked calm and collected and not like an eager young teenager. His cock hardened at the thought of finally making love to her. He had done it many times in his dreams. “Only if you’re sure.”

“I am,” she said, her blue eyes shining with confidence. How could he argue with that?

Holly went to her room to change while Matt checked the house. She didn’t really buy sexy lingerie like her sister and Alana liked to do, and now she regretted that, but she had never had a reason to join them. It would have only depressed her. She’d never envisioned making love with Matt and thought it would always remain a faraway dream. She looked in the mirror, and her cheeks were pink. Her body hummed with anticipation as she stripped her clothes. She was glad she had showered and shaved before the date. She had hoped it would end here and she wanted to be prepared.

She was nervous yet excited as she put her only nice nightie. It was very short and light pink in color. She looked in the mirror and liked how it looked. It was low and showed off her cleavage. Her breasts felt heavy and sensitive. She couldn’t wait to feel his hands on her. She left a small lamp on by her bed, which bathed the room in a warm, romantic glow.

He came in and she turned toward him and away from the mirror.

She blushed as his eyes roamed over her body. Her nipples hardened immediately at just his hot look. She felt good about this decision to make love with Matt. She had wanted this since the night they met, and it was finally becoming real. She was going to enjoy herself and not overanalyze everything like she always did.

Matt walked up to her. “As sexy as this is outfit is, you know it is coming off, right?”

Holly wrapped her arms around his waist and leaned against him. She loved the feel of his hard body against hers. She felt so feminine. Now she was glad her sister gave her that expensive body wash and lotion set. His face was buried in her neck. “Mmm, you smell delicious, doll. I think I am going to lick every inch of you.”

She giggled when he licked her neck. He tilted her head back and his lips touched hers. He wrapped his hands in her long hair as his tongue delved deeply into her mouth, and she closed her eyes and kissed him back. The kiss was slow and tender, and she felt it pierce her heart. She was lost in the feeling of his tongue touching hers and his hands exploring her body. His hands caressed her bare thighs. She felt his hands roam down to her ass and squeeze. She felt his hardness between her legs, and it only excited her more. The kiss burned away her nervousness and filled her with a raging desire. She wanted more of him.

Her legs felt shaky just from the kiss. He let her mouth go and he placed kisses along her collarbone and shoulder, then pushed her thin straps downward until her breast was exposed. He swiped his tongue across her nipple and she shivered. He did the same to the other breast, and kept pushing till her camisole was wrapped around her waist. He spotted her belly piercing and she almost laughed at the shock on his face. She had surprised him.

“Sexy,” he whispered, cupping her breasts with his large hands. He touched and played with her nipples, and she closed her eyes and bit her bottom lip. He explored her body with his hands, and she loved the feel of his rough hands roaming and discovering her. He leaned down to suckle on the tip and she held on to his shoulders as his tongue circled around her nipple, before he took the tip into his mouth. Little shivers of pleasure swept through her body.

“I want to taste every inch of you,” he whispered. “I have dreamt about it for so long.”

“Me too,” she moaned. He pushed her top down her waist and hips, taking her panties with it. She was nude in front of him, and the intensity in his gaze was exciting. She’d kept in good shape and now she was glad she did. His eyes told her he liked what he saw as they roamed from her breast to her stomach to her bare pussy.

“You are a sexy goddess.” He swore, his green eyes shining with desire.

“Hardly.” She smiled. “But it’s nice to hear anyway.”

She unbuttoned his shirt and let it fall to the floor. She caressed his bare, smooth chest with her hands and kissed his chin and neck. She reached down and felt his hard cock through his pants and, licking her lips, unsnapped and unzipped his pants. He stood still and let her. She pulled his cock out and looked down. He was long and thick. She ran her hand along it and caressed his length with her hand, then cupped his balls and squeezed. He was harder than steel, and she needed him.
