I’ve never felt a kiss so all-consuming before, and I already know I’ll never feel this again.
Cameron has ruined me in the best possible way.
The raindrops are loud as they crash into the cement pool deck, but we’re too lost in this moment to care.
He wraps one arm around my lower back and palms the back of my head with his free hand, deepening our kiss as he pushes his tongue inside to slide against mine. I drape my arms around his neck and pull him closer, closing up any bit of remaining space between us.
I feel like I’m living in a romcom. Kissing in the rain is so cliché, but that doesn’t mean this isn’t one of the best moments of my life.
We pull away from each other, just far enough to separate our lips while our foreheads press together.
Cameron’s smile is so bright that even the storm clouds overhead can’t dim its shine.
He’s so beautiful when he smiles.
I’ve never seen him look so happy, and it’s all because he kissedme.
“I’ve been wanting to do that for weeks, Z.”
“I’ve been fighting it off.” I breathe out a light laugh. “I kept telling myself I couldn’t risk doing something that would ruin how people look at me.”
Water droplets drip from the ends of his hair as he smiles at me again. “What changed your mind?”
“I’m so tired of living for everyone else. I want to live forme.I want to do whatIwant for once without worrying about the repercussions.”
Cameron wraps both arms around my lower back and pulls me against him. “And what is it you want, Zhuri?”
I can see the vulnerability in his eyes. He’s been made his whole life to feel like he isn’t enough, but it’s about damn time he learns that he’severything.
“You,” I whisper, lips brushing over his. “I wantyou,Cameron.”
He kisses me more urgently now, and there’s so much want flowing through us both. When his hands slide down to grip my ass, he brushes me against him, and I canfeelhow much he wants me.
The moment is interrupted by another loud clap of thunder, reminding us that we probably shouldn’t be outside.
“Cameron,” I sigh once we break apart again. “Would you rather end the night here…” I lower my voice, my tone now sultry and smooth. “...or would you rather take me to bed?”
Cameron practically growls at me. “You aren’t going fucking anywhere, baby.”
We practically fly down the stairs, and when he closes the balcony door behind us, his lips are on mine again.
This kiss is different than the others. This one is all heat and tongues andsin.
I’ve never wanted someone the way I want Cameron right now.
“Bedroom,” I murmur between frantic kisses.
“Mhmm.”
He lifts me up, and I wrap my legs around his waist as he carries me down the hall to his bedroom, leaving a trail of water in our wake.
When we cross the threshold to his room, he kicks the door shut behind us and sets me down on my feet.
I immediately start working on the buttons on the front of my dress.
Cameron’s responding smirk would probably ruin my panties if they weren’t already drenched from the rain.
“That eager for me, Zhuri baby?”
