Laughing, I pull her closer. "Greedy."
"I blame you. I thought the first time was going to be all blinding pain and no orgasms, but you knew just what to do. I probably should have known, coach."
I kiss her nose. "That's all I wanted--for you to be okay."
"Well, you exceeded expectations." A pause. "Will it hurt as much next time?"
"No, next time should be easier, and the time after that a little easier."
"Good, now I have a new goal--be dick ready by Thursday. But that requires us to be sleeping together at least once a day."
"At least."
"Mhmm. So you should probably come stay with me."
"Glad you think so because I was already planning on it."
Again she flushes, deep and pretty and delighted. "Oh, thank god. I thought I was gonna have to talk you into it."
"The days of you having to talk me into anything are over, peaches. And I plan to spend most of spring break in bed with you."
"Most of it?"
"Gotta fix the house."
"Ugh, responsibilities." She thinks for a second, and I watch her feet swing in the air behind her, ankles crossed. "I'm surprised it didn't hurt more. Honestly, ever since I saw the size of your dick, I assumed you were gonna split me in two."
A laugh cracks out of me. "I'm glad I didn't hurt you. We can go slower next time if you need."
"Or faster?" she waggles her brows.
"You're gonna kill me."
"I'm just saying, now that I know what I'm doing--"
I can't stop laughing. "You donotknow what you're doing."
Her mouth pops open, and she splashes me. "Rude!"
"You're a fast learner, but there's a lot left to teach you."
She perks up. "Like what?"
I thumb her chin with a smirk, saying low, "So many things."
"I can't wait," she says with a wicked smile that I kiss right off her.
Because I can't either.
CHAPTER 40
RATS AND VULTURES
MOLLY
My alarm goes off way,waytoo soon.
I'm naked and groggy and tangled up with Grey, sore in all the right places, and he's no happier about getting up than I am. I almost even convince him to ditch school with me, but in the end, he's still his dependable, responsible self, and we drag ourselves out of bed to go to work.
