Finding You (Love Wanted in Texas 4)

“Yeah, baby?”
Grace pulled her head back and smiled. “I’m sorry I jumped to conclusions and shut you out. I’m so sorry I pushed you away.”
“Grace, my sweet, Grace.”
Closing her eyes, she whispered, “Take me home. I want to be wrapped up in your arms.”
Opening my eyes, I saw the daylight pooling in from the side of the blinds. Rolling over, I looked at my sleeping beauty. Her light-brown hair was spread across the pillow as she slept peacefully. Smiling, I lay there and watched her sleep. I didn’t want to leave. I hated that I had to and I tried like hell not to be angry, but I was. Last night was the first night I’d slept more than four hours without the help of a pill.
Glancing to Grace’s lips, I thought back to last night. Grace had taken me in the shower and worked her magic on my dick. I was almost positive I saw fucking stars when I came. Standing up, Grace had smiled
and said something about cucumbers were her new favorite food. I had been too caught up in the moment to even ask where that had come from.
Hearing my phone buzz on the side table, I turned and saw I had two text messages from my sister.
Emily: Mom is doing good. She asked about you and I had to tell her.
Emily: Mom has been in an amazing mood today Noah! I think it’s your news! She keeps asking about Grace.
Smiling, I hit reply.
Me: Really? Do you think I should talk to Grace about meeting mom? How would mom feel about that?
It didn’t take my sister long to reply back.
Emily: Noah! Mom would LOVE that. She only wants you happy.
Me: Okay, I’ll talk to Grace about it. I’ll be leaving this afternoon to head back.
Emily: Maybe you should stay another day. Mom is doing fine. I swear.
Glancing back at Grace, I watched her sleep. She mentioned only having two classes then she was done for the week. Maybe we could spend the day together and then she could come back to Austin with me this weekend.
Me: I’ll talk to Grace and let you know. Love you, sis.
Emily: Love you too boo bear.
Rolling my eyes at my sister’s reference, I set my phone back on the side table. When I turned back over, Grace was smiling at me.
“Who were you texting?” Grace asked.
Leaning over, I kissed her on the nose. “My sister. She broke down and told my mother I was here, with you.”
Grace’s eyes worried. “Really?”
“Yeah, she said Mom was beyond thrilled and that she was having an amazing day. She’s been in the hospital off and on so much the last month. It’s nice knowing she is feeling happy about something.”
Grace lifted her hand and placed it on the side of my face where I leaned into her touch. “I’m sure she wants to know you’re happy, Noah. What mother wouldn’t want that?”
Smiling, I nodded. “I know. Hey, I have something to ask you.”
Grace rolled on her back and pushed the covers off of her, revealing her beautiful curvy body. My body instantly came to life.
“You never have to ask, Noah. I’m always ready for you.”
My head began to spin, and I totally forgot what I was going to say as I climbed on top of her and slowly worked her with my fingers.
“Noah, please, I need to feel you inside of me,” Grace begged. And Grace was not the type of girl to beg.
