“Ok, sounds good. We can go home if you want to, though,” he offers, taking the blanket from the back of the couch and draping it over me. I shake my head as I grab my phone and put on a show, before propping it against the books he has on the coffee table.
“No, I’m ok. I promise, we can stay,” I say. He nods, giving my thigh a gentle squeeze before he goes back over to his desk. He continues to work on whatever project he was working on before we ate. It’s not long before I’m falling asleep, staying like that until he wakes me up and we head home.
When we get home, he wraps his arms around me, and he kisses the side of my neck, just barely teasing the skin.
“How would you feel about getting into the Jacuzzi with me?” he whispers against the skin of my neck.
“You want to?” I ask, my head falling back, giving him more space to work.
“I do,” He says, spinning me in his arms, making me look up at him. “Unless you don’t want to.” He tucks a piece of hair behind my ear before cupping my cheek with the hand that tucked the hair away.
“No, we can, I do want to. That actually sounds really nice,” I say after thinking about it for a few seconds.
“I’ll meet you outside in a few minutes, ok?” I nod, turning and heading up the stairs.
Mocha follows me, having not gotten farther than a few feet from me sinceithappened.
“Hey, buddy,” I coo, picking him up once we’re in my ‘room.’ He nuzzles my neck with his face and lets out a little whine.
“I know, baby, don’t be scared, just relax. Mommy is right here, I’m not going anywhere,” I whisper, kissing the top of his head.
I set him down and open the top drawer of my dresser, pulling out the same bikini that I took when we went camping.
I slowly peel off my comfort clothes and change into the swimsuit.
When I go downstairs, Beckett is nowhere to be seen, making me think that he’s already outside.
“Hey, baby,” he says, once I step down onto the patio.
“Hey,” I say, pulling my hair up into a bun on top of my head. I set my towel down on one of the chairs at the table as well as my phone, and kick off my sandals.
“What’s all this?” I ask as I see all the snacks and drinks he’s brought out.
“I figured that we could have an outside movie night,” he says before helping me into the hot tub.
He doesn’t really say much as he quickly sets everything up, going into the house a few more times, and on the last time, he comes out with bags of takeout.
I sit in the hot tub watching him, unsure of what his plan is, but at least I’m comfortable. Mocha watches him, too, lying on the ground, his eyes tracking every movement.
“Alright,” he says, pressing play on the movie and finally settling into the jacuzzi next to me, pulling me into his side. I let him, leaning my head against his shoulder.
“You didn’t have to do all this,” I whisper, kissing his shoulder softly.
“I wanted to,” he says, looking over at me and kissing my cheek. “Now eat.”
“Thanks.” I pick up a fork and very slowly start to eat, asDespicable Me 2plays on the screen. After we finish eating, I push my tray away and climb into his lap, which he allows, wrapping his arms around me as I melt into his strong body. I lean my head back against his shoulder, and he presses a couple of soft kisses onto my neck.
I gasp softly, unable to stop myself when he sucks on the sensitive skin below my ear.
“Beck,” I whisper as his hands start to gently explore my body.
“You taste so good, pretty baby,” he whispers against my skin, causing goosebumps to rise.
I turn in his arms, making myself comfortable in his lap, my legs on either side of his hips as my lips find his.
His kisses are intense and slow, and just everything I need right now. His hands gently roam my body, his lips kissing all over my face, neck, and collarbone.
He never pushes me farther than what I’m willing to give him, but for tonight, I allow my brain to shut off so I can enjoy this gorgeous man underneath me and his lips on my body.
