Lainey slips her hand in mine and I lead her to the dance floor, giving her a twirl through the fog hovering above the floor. My girl looks stunning, the layers of her black gown fanning out. Tugging her back to me, I tuck her against me and rest my hand at the small of her back.
A warm ember burns bright within me, encasing my heart in light whenever she smiles. After dancing, we do the photo booth. She picks out a crown made of crystals. I lift her in my arms like a princess, enjoying the way she clings to me.
When the night winds down, I trace her spine and bring my mouth to her ear. “Want to sneak away?”
“I was going to help the volunteers that are cleaning up,” she says.
“Let them handle it.” She shivers when I kiss the spot below her ear. “I want to hear you say my name. Actually, I want to hear you scream it knowing you’re mine.”
She smothers a gasp. “Alex.”
“That’s a start.” My teeth graze her neck and my mouth curves at the tiny sound that escapes her. “We could hit up the library.”
“Oh my god. No.” She swats at me, then takes my hand to pull me toward the table with her flowers on our way out.
My chuckle echoes in the hall outside the room, the music muffled the further we move away from the dance. It’s a shorter walk to the hockey house from this side of campus, but I don’t want to bring her there for this. I want her all to myself with no chance of interruptions.
On the way to her dorm, I shrug out of my suit jacket and drape it over her bare shoulders. She flashes me a grateful smile that I have to kiss. She giggles when I do.
When we make it to her dorm I sit on the bed, watching her set her flowers on the desk before slipping off her shoes and gloves.
“Come here.” I pat my thigh. “Let me help you out of your dress.”
Lainey stops just out of my reach. She bites her lip.
“What is it?”
She sighs. “When we’ve fooled around before, I—You really want this?”
I shoot to my feet and snag her hand. “Yes. Fuck, you have no idea how much I want you.” I run my fingers through my hair. “I’ve only ever had sex without strings. I’ve never been so consumed by a girl until you. I’ve been trying to go slow with you because I wanted it to mean something more when we did this.”
The trepidation clears from her face and she lifts her small hand to cup my jaw. “Fresh start?”
“Yeah.” The corner of my mouth lifts. “I’m claiming more of your firsts tonight. They’re all going to be mine, baby.”
Her eyes gleam. “You can have all of my firsts.”
I capture her mouth in a kiss that starts slow, then heats up fast. Fumbling for the zipper on her dress without breaking away, I manage to drag it down while she loosens my tie and unbuttons my shirt. She presses her body against mine and with a rough noise, I lift her by her waist and lower her to the bed.
Ditching my shoes and pants, I crawl over her until I’m settled between her luscious thighs. I watch her face when I grind my cock against her, only the thin barriers of our underwear separating us.
Lainey tips her head back with a gasp. “Oh.”
“Like that?”
She hums, giving me a little nod. “More.”
“I’ll give you everything you want, baby.”
Kissing a trail down her throat, I peel the cups of her bra down, closing my lips around a nipple. The noise she makes is my new favorite. I rock my hips into her while my tongue teases her tits. Her nails dig into my shoulders and she moves with me until she freezes.
“You come for me, sweetheart?” I rasp against her flushed skin, giving her other nipple the same treatment. “You get off with just my cock rubbing against your clit?”
Lainey wraps her legs around my hips. “Yes. I want to feel you for real.”
I lean up to kiss her, then get up to find a condom in my pants and strip off my briefs. When I turn around, I find her naked and waiting on the bed.
“Fuck, you’re beautiful.”
