“Forever, Steph. I want you forever.”
I lift the hair from his face, and he presses his lips to mine once more.
“Do you want a drink? I'm gasping after that.”
“I'm pretty thirsty.” My vagina still pulsates along with my arse with the imprint of him, and my mind is still dazed from my high. After a moment, I pull my knickers up and adjust my skirt before wandering into the kitchen to find my blouse.
Cal pours a glass of water. “Who said you could get dressed?”
“What?”
“I only got up for a drink,” he smiles.
I freeze.
“I’m teasing. You can get dressed, but I want to fuck you again before you go.”
“Okay.” Gosh, I won’t be able to walk after tonight. My knees already feel like they could buckle under me at any moment, but I don’t care.
“What do you want to drink?”
“A water, please.”
Cal drapes my blouse over the dining table chair. I wrap my arms around him from behind. He has his shorts on now, but he’s still topless. I run my lips along his lower back where there’s no ink. He turns, handing me a flavoured water, what I like.
“Thank you.” I take a gulp. “When do you leave?”
“Two days.”
My heart breaks a little more. “Are you taking all this stuff with you?”
“I'm putting most of it in my mum’s attic. The apartment is gonna be rented out fully furnished. I'm only taking my clothes and stuff I need. I’d tell you to come with me, but I know the answer.”
I grip my water tight in my hand and stare into the glass. “I guess I won't see you after today, then.”
Cal’s hand strokes my arm. “Call in sick tomorrow and spend the day with me.”
My head tilts, and I gaze into his eyes. “I want to, I really do.”
He places his drink down on the counter and grips both my arms. “Then do it,” he demands. “We can stay here all day, or we can go somewhere. I don't care what we do as long as we're together.”
I take in a deep breath. “Okay, seeing as it's the last time I will see you.”
His face lifts and brightens as if the sun’s rays shine down on him. “What would you like to do?”
“I'm not sure. Surprise me.” My smile widens, matching his, and although I have an emptiness creeping into my heart, a bubble of excitement rises in my stomach.
He rests his arm around my shoulder and brings me close to his chest. “All right, I’ll have a think. Do you want to get dinner tonight? Do you have time?”
The musky scent of him catches in my nose, and I want to stay with him all night. I’ll deal with the wrath of Justin tomorrow. “Yes, what do you fancy?”
“Do you want to order or go out?”
“Order take out.” I don’t want to share him with anyone else, not tonight. I want to kiss him whenever the mood takes me.And ogle his bare chest.Hmm.
Cal pulls some menus from the kitchen drawer. “There’s a good pizza place down the road or a Chinese.”
“Pizza is fine.”
