“Let’s just go, Matt, I’m not really in the mood to talk right now.” She walked past him and headed back to his truck.

He’d screwed up.Big time. Deep down when London confessed her love for him, he’d known it was sincere, but he let his old insecurities come to the surface and he’d lashed out at her. Matt realized he shouldn’t have accused her of being a user. Now she was angry at him, and he didn’t know how to rectify it. Things had happened so fast, he didn’t really know how to get a handle on them.

As they drove to the hospital, London sat quietly on her side of the cab instead of sliding next to him like before. He missed her closeness. His balls tightened as he thought of the explosive passion they’d shared. He couldn’t go through the rest of his life without knowing that kind of love again.

Unable to take the silence any longer, he said, “London, we can’t go on like this.”

“Can’t we? You’re the one who set the rules. Isn’t this what you wanted?”

“No, it damn well isn’t. I owe you an apology.”

She turned her head, her lips still tight, but at least she was no longer glaring. “Oh? I’m listening.”

“I shouldn’t have said the things I did or treated you like that. I’m sorry,” he said as humbly as he could.

She didn’t say anything for a while, and he didn’t think she would until a sigh tumbled from her pretty lips. “Then why did you, Matt? You really hurt me you know. I didn’t exactly like being ignored. You’ve been fighting this instant attraction we’ve had for each other from the beginning and when you do finally give in to it, you go all crazy on me. I’m tired of the mixed signals.”

“I can’t blame you if your feelings aren’t the same,” he sighed.

She looked at him with a shake of her head. “That’s just it. You assume that my feelings are so fickle that they’d change. Please give me a little more credit than that. Just because you’re being a jerk right now doesn’t mean my love will cease in an instant. There have been plenty of times when one of my brothers has tried my patience to the absolute limits, and let’s not get started on my parents. I don’t love them any less. Real love is unconditional. Even though you’re a little on the sensitive side, I could no more stop loving you than I could stop breathing.”

“You’re one in a million, London.” His heart swelled with overwhelming emotion for this woman. He wished they weren’t driving in his truck because he wanted very dearly to show her how he felt.

“Only a million? I heard there are at least a few billion people on Earth,” she teased.

“And none of them compare to you.”

“Won’t you tell me why you were so scared to open up to me?”

“You were right. I’ve been hurt before, London. Not just by one woman, but lots of them. As long as I can remember, I’ve been pushed into the best friend role, and stood up and dumped on. Sometimes it seems that women are only nice when they want something from me because they know I’ll come through for them, especially beautiful women. I guess that’s why I was a little wary of you from the beginning.”

“Just because the women on Earth are idiots, it doesn’t mean I am. Where I come from, there aren’t a lot of men like you. The women on Thibius would fight to the death to win a man like you.”

He smiled. “That sounds like my kind of place. When can we go?”

“Not on your life. You’re mine, and I’d scratch out the eyes of any woman who tried to take you away from me.” She unbuckled her seat belt then and slid next to him, her hand slowly moving up his thigh.

His cock jumped to attention. Matt groaned. He’d never be able to concentrate on the road if she kept that up. Turning off of the main road, he followed a dead end sign and parked. London straddled his hips and kissed him hungrily on the lips.

Matt’s tongue darted out to meet hers. God, he loved this woman. Just the feel of her soft lush lips over his was enough to send shock waves of sensation coursing through his body. She ran her fingers through his hair and lifted her head with a smile. “I love you, Matt, and if you ever doubt my word again, I’ll make you very sorry.

He chuckled as she pulled his glasses off. “I’ll keep that in mind.” His hand slid down her back lifting her T-shirt, thankful that the clasp of her bra was in front. Matt unhooked the snap and her generous chocolate mounds came spilling out.

Cupping them gently in his palms he grazed his thumb over her nipples, and London moaned. “I love it when you do that to me.”

“And I love doing it to you,” he muttered bending over to take one dark tight peak into his mouth. He suckled on the tip and she gripped his shoulders arching her back, offering herself to him. His teeth nipped at the nub. She gasped.

“More,” she begged grinding her hips against his erection.

He’d come in his pants if she kept that up. “Easy, baby,” Matt moaned transferring his attention to her other waiting nipple. He took his time licking and laving the tip before taking it fully into his mouth. He could do this for hours if she let him.

“I need you inside of me,” she whispered, leaning over to graze her lips against his neck.

Hurriedly he fumbled with his jeans, sliding them off his hips, while she worked on hers. It was a bit awkward maneuvering their way out of their pants, but they somehow managed it.

Being outside in his truck somehow made the ordeal more exciting knowing that anyone could walk out here and catch the two of them like this. He didn’t care, because he intended to get some of her sweet pussy before this day ended.

Matt ran his fingers along her already damp slit, readying her for his cock. She buried her face in his neck when he slid two digits into her channel, sending them as deep as they’d go. London gyrated her hips wiggling and squirming. “Please, Matt. I want your cock.”
