To anyone who can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel… I promise it’s there.
“We'll never forget each other, Derrick. Our love will never be forgotten. You can’t forget a love like this.”
My voice comes out in a whisper against his lips and before I know it, I’m falling under his spell. His tongue slides into my mouth while a groan slips from us both in unison. My arms wrap around his neck, his hands digging into my hips with fierce intent. His erection hardening against my stomach quickly.
I close my eyes, remembering his disheveled appearance from the night before. His blonde hair a total mess after we made love. His shirtless chest sitting just an inch from my breasts. And his tattoo standing out against his olive skin. His blue eyes never straying from mine.
His good looks aren't the only attribute he has. He also cages a heart of gold within his chest. He's generous, kind, and selfless. Sure, he has his downfalls. Everyone does. His are just a little more serious than others. None the less, Derrick consumed my life before I even realized it.
One of my hands slips away from his neck and slides between us. I trail my fingers against his washboard abs and down his waist until I reach his hardness. My grip tightens around him and he lets out a deep groan.
“Callie,” he begins.
His lips trace the shell of my ear, his hot breath caressing it as he whispers.
“If we don’t get out of this house now, we will miss dinner. And as much as I’d love to celebrate our
fifth anniversary here, I think we need to get out for the night. I’ve got a few surprises up my sleeve tonight, baby.”
I run my fingers over his erection again, his body shivering at the touch.
“We could stay in. I wouldn’t mind.”
His body breaks from mine, his chest heaving up and down from panting. A small smile forms on his lips as he comes down from the high of our touch.
“We’ll celebrate us in bed later, baby. I want to wine and dine you first.”
A small giggle escapes me while I shake my head at him.
“As you wish, handsome,” I say seductively as I walk toward the coat rack.
I find my black pea-coat on it, and look back over my shoulder at him.
“I love to be wined and dined.”
He steps toward me, placing his hand on the small of my back as I throw a wink at him.
“Well then, Miss Matthews, your wish is my command.”
