Sam

Tucker strolls into the apartment, whistling. I can hear him drop his bag in the living room, humming a tune as he steps into the kitchen. His smile reaches up to his eyes when he sees me, and my expression mirrors his.

I throw my arms around his neck and breathe in his spicy scent. “I got the job.”

He lifts me and kisses every inch of my face. “That’s my girl.” Tucker strokes my jaw with his thumb, and I lean into his hand. “I’m so proud of you, Sam. You worked so hard for this. You deserve it.”

I smack a kiss on his cheek. “You made this happen.”

He smirks. “I can’t take any of the credit. All I did was ask my mom to make a phone call. You did the work on your own.”

“I love you, Tuck.”

“Love you, too, baby.”

His lips crash into mine, his tongue invading my mouth. After days of being apart, I missed him so much. I never knew I could love a person this much. I feel that sudden loss when he’s on the road, only for him to return and make me whole again.

I slip my fingers through his hair, loving that it’s not gelled into place. Tugging hard, I pull him closer to deepen the kiss as if I need his last breath to survive. I sink into him and allow myself to get lost with Tucker.

He lowers me onto the granite countertop and makes room for himself between my legs. My body hums when he touches me.

I crave him so much my skin burns.

Our lips separate, and Tucker smiles. He rests his forehead against mine, taking a second to catch his breath.

“I missed you. So fucking much.”

“I missed you, too.” I cup his strong shoulders with my hands and return his smile. “Now you need to show me how much you missed me.”

He chuckles, tugging at my clothes, peeling off layers until we’re both naked. I moan as he rubs my inner thighs and my entire body trembles.

Tucker’s eyes travel down the length of my body. “You’re perfect,” he hisses.

I sit back, my palms on the counter, my hips arched. Tucker bends down to suck on my nipples, one at a time, as he takes each one between his teeth. He’s so rough sometimes, but I love it.

As Tucker inches inside me, my mouth falls open, and an intense sensation rocks me. He fills me up, breaking through my inner walls, his pace now quickening to the point I could unravel.

“I could stay like this forever.” Tucker closes his eyes, his voice low but deep.

I dig my fingers into his shoulders, my heels into his ass, and whisper, “Me, too.”

He grips my hips and slams into me, harder and faster, going deeper and deeper until I can feel him everywhere.

My entire body burns for him, the heat spreading down my arms and chest. His passion only fuels my hunger.

And as we come together as one, I slowly lose control, the intensity of my orgasm wrecking me from the inside out.

We can barely catch our breath after we come down from our high. And I know, at this moment, I could spend the rest of my life just like this.
