Dissipate

“Kenzie, did you hear me?”

“Huh?”

Chuckling, he repeated himself. “Do you want to study while I go over the questions one last time?”

If anything, Aiden was meticulous when it came to his journalism which also happened to be his major.

“Yeah, I have one more section I need to review in Biology. It’ll take thirty minutes. Let’s sit on the bed. It’ll be more comfortable.” I grabbed some clothes from the dresser. “I’m going to change.”

“Sounds good. I’ll go get us some more water.”

Heading to the bathroom, I changed into some of Brooklyn’s yoga pants she’d given me. I was becoming addicted to them. They were the most comfortable thing I had ever worn. Coming back out, Aiden was on the bed, leaning against the headboard. I took my seat next to him.

I was knee deep in learning about cells when Aiden flicked a piece of something that hit me on the nose.

“Hey, what was that?” I snickered. “I’m studying.”

“What?” The innocent look on his face was totally fake.

Giving him a playful-stern look, I responded, “You know exactly what.”

Now, he looked confused and I focused back on my book. A few minutes later he did it again. I pushed my book to the side.

“Where is that piece of paper?” I took Aiden’s journal and searched everywhere. “Aiden, where is your stash?”

He laughed as I tried to pry his fists open where the paper he threw at me was probably located. I looked down to speak and realized, I was straddling him, chest in his face.

Swallowing hard, he searched my eyes. My mouth gravitated to his.

Releasing his hands, I pushed my fingers through his dark hair when my lips touched his. We moaned into each other’s mouths and I felt Aiden’s hands on my back holding me to him. The kiss intensified, stronger than anything we’d shared before. My body ignited with a need and my hips moved against Aiden. The feeling sent tingles all through me and drove me for more.

Between kisses, Aiden murmured, “Kenzie, sweetheart, are you okay with this?”

“Just a little more.”

Aiden’s hands crept to the bottom of my shirt, touching my skin. This spurred me as we kissed harder. Fingers crept higher. I wanted him to touch me somewhere intimate. As he reached the underside of my breasts, I leaned back, giving him better access.

Pushing my shirt up, Aiden pushed down the cups of my bra. “You are so fucking beautiful. I need to taste you.”

“Yes.”

Aiden brought his mouth to my nipple and sucked it in his mouth. An erotic throb pulsed through my body. The other nipple was being rolled in between his fingertips. A small whimper escaped my throat. Never in my life had such sensations coursed through me and I became lost in the moment.

His free hand trailed down my stomach and traced the edge of my pants. “Kenzie, is this okay?”

My eyes shot to his as I contemplated him touching me there. I wanted it, but was it too soon? Withdrawing his hand, Aiden gave my nipple one last kiss before replacing my bra and pulling my shirt down.

Tracing small, soothing patterns on my shoulder, Aiden waited for our breathing to calm down. “We’ll wait. I don’t want there to be any hesitation.”

I looked down. “I’m so sorry. I want to go there, I just wasn’t ready. I got caught up in the moment.”

Gently, Aiden moved me off of his lap and we scooted underneath the covers. “There is nothing for you to apologize for. Hell, Kenzie, being with you like that was amazing.” His eyes blazed as he looked at me. “You were incredible.”

The praise did wonders for me as I believed Aiden had enjoyed himself. “Do you need me to do anything?”

I’d heard the term blue balls and researched it. It was when you left a guy hanging. Obviously his balls didn’t turn blue, but it hurt them. The last thing I wanted was for Aiden’s balls to hurt.

“No, it was perfect.” A hand stroked down my back. “Do you want me to go?”
