“You can take it with you.” She rubs her belly in slow, dramatic circles. “I’m still digesting my dinner. Don’t eat that too fast, though, okay? You know it’ll give you a stomachache if you do.”

“Okay!” He bounds to his feet, his chair flipping back now that his weight no longer holds it down, and charging toward the end of the row, he moves down one stair and considers…

then another… and considers that row, too.

Finally, three rows away, he nods and steps in, counting seats until he finds the very middle one, before plopping to his butt and twisting back to give us a thumbs up.

“I’ll just be here!” he shouts above the roar of…

something. Iron Man, maybe. “I won’t move after this. ”

“Okay.” Amused, Fox settles back, smoothing her skirt down to cover her delicious thighs, and when she’s comfortable, she grabs her soda and takes a slow sip.

“You didn’t even ask me to come to the cinema with you.

” I adjust my position on the not-very-comfortable chairs, and since we have the privacy to do so, I set my fingers on the hem of her skirt and drag it up just an inch.

Not inappropriate. Not even revealing. Just a little something for me to see.

“I thought we were getting along, but you make a movie date and don’t even think to ask if I have plans? ”

“I didn’t want to influence your choice.

” Seductive, deliciously sexy, she studies me in the dark, her long lashes coming down to kiss her cheeks and her plump bottom lip trapped between her teeth.

“If I’d asked you to come, you probably would have said yes, even if you didn’t want to.

Instead, I made sure you were aware of our plans, and now you’re here of your own accord. ”

“What if my feelings got hurt, and I was too proud to come without an invitation?”

“Then we’d have both missed out.” She glances down at my hand, smirking as I draw a long, lazy pattern on her thigh.

“I heard you say I was flaky and annoying to Tommy.” Troubled, she brings her eyes back up again.

“I wasn’t trying to eavesdrop, and even when I did, I wasn’t going to say anything.

But this is who I am, Christian. Irritatingly in your face.

Do you still consider me an annoying pain in your ass you hardly tolerate? ”

“No.” I cup her jaw and throw a last look down the rows of chairs to make sure Franky’s eyes are where they need to be.

Then I come back around and pull her in until our lips touch.

“I do think you’re an annoying pain in my ass with a mouth full of sass and a body I can’t get enough of.

But I don’t tolerate you. I hoard every minute I’m given and spend an unhealthy amount of time manufacturing reasons to be near you.

” I draw her plump bottom lip between my teeth. “Do the shop windows need a clean?”

Curious, and confused, her brows pinch. “No…?”

“But I’m gonna come clean them tomorrow, anyway. Got cobwebs in the corners of the shop, way too high for you to reach? I’m your man.”

She trembles under my touch, leaning closer, closer, close enough that even Franky, a ten-year-old kid, would know this isn’t how Aunty Fox and Chris interact normally.

“We’re casual, and the time we have is limited. But there isn’t a single fucking rule that says I can’t make up reasons to be near you. Honestly, you’re lucky I haven’t already walked my ass into your apartment in the middle of the night.”

“Really?”

“I’ve laid awake at my place, wondering if you were lonely.

Because fuck, I was.” I swoop in and press one last gentle kiss to her lips, then as the final trailer ends, I release her and wait as, predictably, Franky spins and shows us two thumbs up.

Settling back in my seat, I smile and wait for him to twist back to the front, then digging my hand into my jeans, I rearrange my cock before placing my free hand on Fox’s thigh.

She shudders under my touch. Pent up and anxious, she watches as I walk my fingers over her goosebumped skin and into her panties. Then I touch her core and groan at her explosive exhale.

She unfolds her legs and presents herself for my exploration.

Good fucking girl.

“I hardly sleep, Fox. I lay in my bed for at least eight hours every single night, but I’m lucky if I sleep four of them.

” I look over and find her lips dropped open into a lovely O, her chest rising and falling, and her hands clutching the armrests like she might float off without them.

“That leaves me with hours and hours and hours to consider climbing into my truck and visiting you.”

“Maybe you should.” She whimpers as I slide just one digit into her wet pussy. “Maybe I lay awake, too. A little sad that we’re in two different buildings, two different beds, when we could be in one.”

“Is that a formal invitation?” I push in as deep as I can, then out, before adding a second finger. “Can I climb into your bed at night? Even if you’re already asleep?”

“Yes.” Fuck Spiderman. Fuck Iron Man. Fuck them all. Fox white-knuckles the armrests and tips her head back. “Shit. Yes, Christian. You can visit me at night, even if I’m already asleep.”

“Can I fuck you, even if you’re already asleep? I could make it so you’re not sure if I’m there for real, or if you’re just dreaming of me. When I fuck you, you’ll come not knowing if I was the one who drew you to your peak, or if it was your very own incubus demon come to visit.”

She licks her dry lips and nods.

“Have you ever done that before?” I dip a third finger in and stretch her wider. “Let someone fuck you while you were asleep?”

She shudders around my fingers, gasping and filling my palm with her release.

“I’ve never been fucked while I was asleep before.” She swallows, choking on her inhalation. “I would like you to do that to me.”

I use her lubrication and inch my hand further around her ass, and because she so willingly adjusts to make room, I slip a digit into her throbbing hole, a vibrating tremble rocking through my system when she accepts me with needy anticipation.

“I’ll come by tonight,” I whisper. “After you’re asleep. I’ll let myself in to your apartment and have your body while you’re unconscious. You’ll like it, and I’ll blow my load knowing how defenseless you are.”

“Chris—”

“Come again.” I dig my fingers into her pussy. “It turns me on how trusting you are of my intentions. I could do whatever the fuck I want, but you know I’ll make it feel good.”

“Probably makes me an idiot.” She chokes out her attempt at a laugh, but her release takes hold, trapping her in her ecstasy as her stomach clenches and her pussy crushes my fingers. “Shit.”

“Makes you perfect.” I lean closer and kiss her cheek. “Enjoy the movie, beautiful. And wear your plug to bed. I’ll reward you for it.”
