Laughing, I pull her in tighter. “I don’t think we can deny our connection, even if we wanted to.”
“I don’t want to deny it,” she says, and I am sure something inside of me literally melts.
“Good, nor me.” She buries her face into my neck and my smile instantly broadens.
The covers that had been separating us have somehow become pushed down and Olivia’s bare thighs are at each side of my hips, her naked chest is firmly pressed against mine while my exposed erection is pushing against her covered core that I can feel, damp and hot, greedy for more.
“Mase,” she whispers against the sweaty skin of my neck that she proceeds to lick and nip at.
My hands reach for her shorts and with a slight lift of her hips I am pushing them down, freeing her body, desperate to be inside her, all previous thoughts of leaving them on forgotten.
“You want to do this?” I’m referring to my earlier suggestion that she should fuck me.
“Mmm.” She uses her feet to remove her shorts completely.
“I need to go and find where we put the condoms.”
I attempt to roll her over, off me, but she is clearly trying to stop me with her arms and legs tightening around me.
“They’re in the bag in the bathroom.”
“Baby, I need to get a condom before I explode.”
“You don’t have to, if you don’t want to.”
I hear her words and for a split second I am ready to throw her across the room never mind roll her over if this is some kind of baby entrapment she’s going for here, but yet again I know she is genuine.
“I’m on the pill,” she reveals, confusing me a little because I have never seen her take the pill or any evidence of it. “Well, not the pill, but the injection.”
I’m not sure what to say. I hadn’t expected her to say that, ever. I supposeeveris a bit of a stretch because at some point I assume we would have had a conversation on long term contraception, including the pill, injection, whatever the fuck she uses. She seems to take my silent thoughts as a rejection of her idea, suggestion. I become aware of her moving from me.
“Olivia, wait.” I reach for her arms to hold her still.
“For what? Look, you want to use condoms, that’s fine. I’ll fetch them, it was just a thought, not one I’ve had before.” Her final words sound like she’s thinking aloud.
I don’t think she’s angry or offended by my perceived objection, just embarrassed I realise by her tone and stiffness.
“Don’t go,” I implore, stroking my hands up her arms to her shoulders. “It was a surprise. I hadn’t realised you were already using contraception and I know we’ve never talked about it so I shouldn’t have been shocked I suppose.”
I feel her soften in my grip enough that she allows me to pull her down to lie with me again.
“I really don’t mind using a condom,” she tells me as her mouth kisses my collar bone sending my erection into a frenzy, stiffening and swelling further as it tries to find some release. “I’ve always used them so it’s fine,” she whispers as she litters soft, delicate kisses across the tattoo on my chest. “Mase, get a condom,” she murmurs when her tongue suddenly flicks over the same area she’s just kissed.
“Okay baby, but tomorrow we talk contraception.”
I mean what I say, we need to discuss this so she doesn’t startle me with her random comments during sex, but for now I am rolling her onto her back so that I can get a condom.
Chapter 20
Olivia
My alarm really is the most annoying sound in the world at six in the morning, but it is effective in waking me up.
“Turn it off,” comes Mason’s voice from behind me as an arm wraps around my waist, just like that first morning. “I need to get you a less annoying way to wake up.”
“I like the sound of that.” I giggle and wiggle my behind into him knowing I will find his morning erection waiting to greet me.
“You are a bloody machine,” he tells me but kisses my shoulder before I shut off my alarm and roll back towards him.
