“You dated her for six months and never had sex with her?” I asked, stunned.
“Yep. I didn’t want to rush it. I wanted it to be perfect. Believe me, there were a few times we almost went too far, but I always stopped it before we got carried away. ”
“You’re my fucking hero!”
Gunner let out a laugh and sat down on my bed. “Just don’t rush it, dude. I know you want to remember everything about those years you lost, especially your memories about Heather, but it’ll come back. And if it doesn’t…well, you’ll make new ones. ”
Just then, there was a knock on my door. I walked over and opened it to see Ellie and Heather standing there. Heather’s face instantly blushed. Shit, why does she get so flushed around me? I smiled as she walked in, and the smile she gave back almost brought me to my knees. There isn’t a damn thing I wouldn’t do for this girl.
“Hate to interrupt guy time, but we better head back before it gets too late. I don’t want to leave Alex with your parents for too long,” Ellie said as she walked by me and gave me a wink.
She’s the sweetest thing ever.
Gunner got up, took her in his arms, and kissed the shit out of her.
When I looked away, I caught Heather staring at me. My heart started pounding, and my hands started sweating. Jesus H. Christ. Am I in high school? I winked at her, and there went the blushing again. I let out a little laugh, and she tilted her head at me. Then, she bit down on her lower lip. I was pretty sure a small moan escaped from me. She giggled and looked away.
The next thing I knew, Gunner slapped the shit out of my back.
With a wink, he said, “Remember what I said, dude. ” He turned, leaned down, and kissed Heather on the cheek. “Take good care of the birthday boy, sweetheart. ”
When Ellie hugged Heather good-bye, she whispered something in Heather’s ear that made her smile and blush again.
I felt my dick getting harder by the second. Calm the fuck down, Josh. Think about something else.
Before Gunner walked out, I called out to him. “Gunner! What did you think about?”
He turned and smiled.
Bastard knows exactly what I’m asking.
“Dogs. ”
“Dogs?” I asked, confused as hell.
He let out a laugh and nodded. “Yep…fucking dogs. ”
Ellie looked at Gunner, and then she glanced over at Heather. Heather just shrugged her shoulders. I watched as Gunner and Ellie started walking out.
Ellie turned, and before she shut the bedroom door, she gave me a wink. “Happy birthday!”
Once the door was shut, I pulled Heather into my arms. I pressed my body against hers, so she could feel how much I wanted her. I looked down at her mouth and ran my finger along her lower lip, pulling it out from between her teeth.
“Let me. ” Leaning down, I took her lip in my mouth and sucked on it. God, she tastes like honey. Then, I kissed her with as much passion as I could.
“Oh god,” she whispered.
“You want to go for that drive?” I looked into her beautiful blue eyes.
“What?” she asked, confused. She almost seemed like she was in a daze.
“Our drive that we’ve been trying to go on for the last few nights,” I said with a smile.
She giggled and nodded. “Okay. Can I go change into some jeans though? It’s getting kinda chilly outside. ”
“Okay. Hurry and meet me at my truck. I’m gonna try and sneak out without anyone seeing me,” I said with a wicked grin.
She raised her eyebrows at me before she reached up and gave me a quick kiss. “It’s a date!” she called out as she opened my door and skipped down to her room.
