“I can do that. Baby steps.” She turned and went back to cooking. “I’d do anything to save us.”

“Me too, Sutton,” I said, holding her from behind. I felt her stiffen a bit in my grasp and I released her. I didn’t want to do anything to hinder our small progression. It filled me with so much hope that the events from earlier today with Ebony vanished from my mind.

I sat and ate dinner with my wife and we laughed and talked. We enjoyed ourselves in our own little bubble. We forgot about the world and for a moment in time, it seemed like we didn’t have any problems.

…

“I liked the last therapist on your list,” I told Sutton after I brushed my teeth and walked into the bedroom. Ravel was playing on the stereo. It was the perfect ending to a nice evening.

“You too? She sounds so good. I like that she uses real-world techniques to help patients outside of her office.”

“Me too,” I nodded. I pulled the comforter back and slid into bed. Sutton slid in beside me. Her smooth leg brushed against mine and I wanted to grip her thigh in my hand and let my fingers inch up further until I found the hottest, wettest part of her. There was no doubt in my mind that she was wet. I could smell her.

The fragrance drove me insane.

“So you wanna go with her?” I asked, trying to take my mind off my growing erection.

“I do. I’ll set up an appointment after I get back from rehearsal tomorrow.” Sutton slid closer to me and I wondered if it was some new form of torture where she dangled what I couldn’t have in front of me.

“Sutton, I love being next to you but…” I didn’t know how to tell her I couldn’t be close to her much longer before I touched her.

“Can you kiss me again, Lennox?” She asked out of the blue. So I did. I kissed her until my cock was so hard and heavy I nearly came in my pants. I felt like a fucking teenager making out in bed like that.

It didn’t matter though. She asked for me and I’d oblige her every damn time. Kissing her like that was the intimacy I’d been missing. We could take time to work our way up to sex.

We made out for thirty minutes before I had to pull away. “Did I do something wrong?” Sutton asked.

“No, I just can’t keep kissing you like this without a release, baby. I don’t want to push you to do something you feel uncomfortable with so I need to stop now.” Or else there would be no stopping.

“Oh…okay.”

“I’m gonna go to the bathroom. You try to get some sleep.” I kissed her forehead and went to jerk my dick behind the locked bathroom door.

Things weren’t perfect between Sutton and I but they were moving in the right direction and I’d take it. I’d take Sutton however I could get her.
