“We can absolutely do that, baby. Do you want to go before class or after?”

“Let’s go after we eat. Then we can just relax later. Assuming you want to come over?”

Our food arrives before I can reply. She ordered pancakes and a side of eggs. She butters her pancakes, then pours syrup all over the pancakes and then the eggs. I just watch in fascination.

“Got enough syrup, darlin’, or do you need some more?” I tease.

“Hush, Archie. I can’t help it. The baby needs some sugar.” She giggles.

We eat and talk about things we need for the baby and a little about the different schools she’ll be applying to depending on where we land. It sounds like Dallas would be the best option, so I’m really hoping I can make that happen. For both of us.

CHAPTER

TWENTY-FOUR

ARCHIE

The last fewweeks have been pretty busy. Emma and I made it down to my parents’ ranch and have settled in the best we can under the temporary circumstances. My mama hasn’t scared her off yet with the way she’s excited about the baby. And I have to admit, the nursery looks awesome. I think Emma likes it too.

Emma had to stay back for about a week to wrap up some things and pack up some of her stuff from her parents’ house. While we were apart, we tried the FaceTime sex, and I got her to use that pink vibrator while I watched and jerked off. It’s definitely something we’ll be doing again when I’m on the road. Ten out of motherfucking ten.

She was able to get approval to take two of her finals online, and she had already turned in three of the papers that counted as her final, so for all intents and purposes, she’s been done with her school year.

We did have to get a referral from our doctor for an OB down here and a high-risk doctor, but really, we’re in good hands, especially considering one of Emma’s top choices in schools iswhere our doctor’s office is. It’s a little bit of a trek into the city from the ranch, but I don’t mind because I get to have Emma all to myself.

It’s the morning of the draft, and I opted to be at home. My entire family and Emma’s parents are waiting for us at the main house. But I want a little more time with my girl before I have to share her with our families. I mean, my entire family is here, and the news crews are already parked outside the house. We’re a good mile from the main house, but there’s nothing between us but wide-open space. I can see everything happening there from the window.

I’m too anxious to sleep, but not ready to go, so I do the only thing that can settle me. I strip off my shorts and crawl back into bed with my girl.

Emma’s lying on her side, naked, her hand cradling her face. She looks so peaceful and calm. I snuggle in behind her and wrap my arm around her waist. I kiss the back of her neck, which makes her stir. When I lick a path from her neck to her earlobe and then bite down softly, she moans.

I drift my hand from her waist, over her belly, and in between her legs. She opens her legs just enough for me to get my hand between them. Her pussy is slick, and my fingers slide from her tight hole to her clit easily.

Her hips start to rock, and she moans my name. “Archie, what time is it? Do we need to get up to the main house?”

“We have time, darlin’. Just relax. Let me make you feel good.”

My fingers move faster, and her hips buck against my hard-on.

“Babe, I don’t know if we have time this morning. Maybe we should put this on pause until later.”

“How about we just cuddle and if it slips in, it slips in?” I can’t help the laugh that comes out of my mouth.

I absolutely intend to slip it in, and she knows it, which is why she laughs too.

Bringing her arm up, she wraps it around my head, and she grabs on to my hair. It’s not painful, but just enough pressure to spur me on. “Just give me enough time to shower.”

“You got it, baby.” I trail kisses on her neck again, then suck as I flick her clit faster. I can tell by her breathing that she’s getting close, and it’s not going to take much for us both to come.

I take my hand from her pussy and pull her hips back a notch, then move her thigh so her pussy is exposed to me. With her hips tilted, I can push right in from this angle, so I do just that.

My dick is rock hard and takes no guidance sliding into her tight heat. With her legs closed like this, it makes her pussy practically choke my cock. Yeah, I’m not gonna last long.

“Archie, that feels so good. I’m so close.”

“Me too, darlin’.” I move my hand back between her legs and slide my middle finger back and forth over her clit. “Get there, baby. I can’t hold it much longer.”

“So. Close.” Her hips stop moving as I feel her pussy begin to contract around my cock.
