She groaned against me, hooking her heels together and digging them into the backs of my thighs.
“I love you,” I whispered against her lips.I couldn’t stop saying the words to her.I was as addicted to her reply as I was to her.
“I love you,” she said, a smile lifting her lips.“Do we have time for this?”
I raised an eyebrow.“You know none of our friends are going to be early.I need a shower before they arrive.I was hoping I could talk you into joining me.”
She grinned and ran her nails over my chest.“Why are we still out here?”
I picked her up off the counter and carried her to the bathroom.I set her feet and turned on the water.In seconds, we were naked and stepping into the shower.
“We need a bigger shower,” she grumbled.
“We?”I smirked.
She bit her lip.“I didn’t mean to say that.”
I shook my head.“You know what else we need?”
“What’s that?”
“We need a vasectomy.”
“What?”she gasped.
I stopped.I thought she’d be relieved.“Not really we.Sorry.I meant me.Are you mad?”Water ran down her face, but I could have sworn there were a few tears mixed in.Fuck.I screwed up big time.
“You would do that for me?”
I cupped her jaw.Those were definitely tears.“I’d do anything for you, Reegan.I love you.I know you don’t have a job yet, but I want you here.I want you in my life.I want a future with you.And that means no kids.I’m on board with that, but I’d really love to be able to press you against the shower wall and sink into you.I’d love to know if the mood hits when we’re out of condoms, we don’t have to worry.I want to feel you with nothing between us.And I want you to never feel like I’m forcing something on you that you don’t want.We’re in this together.”
“I…” She exhaled a shaky breath.“I didn’t think I could love you more.”
I grinned.“Is that so?”
She nodded.
“Even after a few orgasms?”
She shrugged.“Maybe we should try.Just in case.”
I chuckled and dropped to my knees.She was right, though.We definitely needed a bigger shower.Maybe one with a seat.And knee pads.And more showerheads.
Big enough for two.
The food was gone,and the drinks were on the way to gone.We all sat around the fire pit and enjoyed each other’s company.Ashlyn invited Sage to join us, and Oscar brought Kannon along.It was good for all of us.Especially for Christy.
“I have something for you,” Reegan said.
“You’re all I need,” I told her.
Everyone else groaned, but I meant it.I had a great kid, a job I loved, and a woman I couldn’t get enough of.What else could I need?
“Well, I hope you’ll accept this.I actually have one for Oscar and Christy, too.”She grabbed three boxes from a table near Ashlyn’s door.
Oscar, Christy, and I exchanged looks.I shrugged.I had no idea what Reegan had for us.
Reegan handed one to each of us.She sat on the arm of my chair, nibbling her lip while she watched us.
