Page 100 of Stay With Me

I slam my mouth down on hers again and work her pussy until she writhes against me.

“I’m so close. Don’t stop,” she pleads.

“Hang on.” I kneel between her thighs, place her leg over my shoulder, and suck her clit while my fingers fill her cunt.

“Oh my God, Tripp.” Her fingers thread through my hair as I devour her sweetness. She tightens around me, and I know she’salmost there, so I twist my wrist and reach for her G-spot. “Yes, right there.”

Her heavy breathing fills the shower, my lips sucking and flicking her clit until moments later, she unravels with an ear-piercing scream-moan. The taste of her orgasm consumes my mouth, and my painfully hard cock can’t take it anymore. Giving it one long stroke, I come undone with a loud groan.

Tilting my head up to her stare, I smirk at her little pouty expression. “Feelin’ you come on my face had me losin’ control. Sorry, sweetheart.” I stand and kiss her lips. “You can finish me off next time.”

She reaches between us and takes my cock in her hand. “This ismine. You don’t touch yourself when I’m around.”

I chuckle at how serious she sounds. “All yours, sweetheart.”

When I notice she shivers, I move her underneath the water and turn it on as hot as it’ll go. Instead of rushing to go back to work, I take my time washing her hair and lathering soap all over her body. I spend extra time massaging her breasts and playing with her hard nipples. With her back pressed to my chest, she leans against me, and I continue working her perfect tits and kissing her neck.

“I wish we could stay here all day.” She smiles up at me when I towel-dry her hair.

“Me too, love.” I kiss the tip of her nose. “But I gotta finish muckin’ stalls and then check on Landen and Sydney.”

“Oh no, what happened?”

I explain everything that I know so far while we get dressed and then she says she’s going to visit her parents today since she skipped the Farmer’s Market.

“How’re they doing?” I ask because she rarely brings them up and it’s always seemed like a topic she didn’t want to discuss.

“Well, after pleading with my dad for the past few years, he finally moved them into an assisted living home. He doesn’t need it for him, but it became a safety issue anytime he left my mom alone. She’d turn on the stovetop and forget she wasboiling a pot of water or turn the oven to five hundred degrees and burn the food. He’d return from work with the fire department out there. There’s been a few occasions where she’d run a bath and never turn off the water, so it’d just flood into the rest of the house. Every time he calls, I anticipate him tellin’ me the house burned down or worse, Mama accidentally killed herself.”

“Wow, Sunny. I’m sorry. Are things better now that they moved?”

“Yeah, I think so. They have sensors and alarms for everything there. And Dad added cameras so he can watch her while he’s at work. They started hiding her meds in her food or she’d refuse to take ’em, so I’m hoping today’s a good day for me to visit.”

My chest aches at how much she’s dealt with on her own. I remember Noah begging Mom to let Magnolia sleep over every weekend and she’d basically live at our house over summers.

I didn’t understand then how rough it was, but seeing her now as an adult, I’m amazed at how far she’s come.

I grab her hand and pull her closer. “I’m really proud of you, Sunny.”

She wraps her arms around my waist. “For what?”

“Given the circumstances, you could’ve easily taken a different path to deal with your problems, but instead you worked your ass off to get what you wanted. That takes courage and a lot of strength. You should be proud of yourself, too.”

She’s silent, and I tilt her chin until her eyes find mine. “And even if you don’t wanna hear it, I’m gonna say it anyway because you deserve to know. You have a heart of gold, you’re stronger than you realize, and loyal to a fault. I adore your ability to just go with the flow and not take shit from anyone. And if anyone asks how I got someone like you, I’ll fully admit you’re the catch in this relationship, and I just got lucky.”

Tears well in the corner of her eyes as she sucks in her lips. I know it’s way too soon to tell her how hard I’m falling for her, butit shouldn’t be a secret at this point. My little high school crush turned into a full-on obsession long before I was ready to admit it.

“That’s honestly the sweetest thing anyone’s ever said to me, and I’m not quite sure how to take it.” She closes her eyes and the tears fall down her face.

I brush the pads of my thumbs over her cheeks before pressing my lips to hers. “You don’t have to say anything, Sunny.”

She wraps her arms around my neck and pulls me in for a hug. I hold her tight as she buries her face in my neck, and we stay like that for several minutes before she exhales a deep breath and steps back.

“Are you sure you have time to take me home?” she asks.

“Yep. I’ll text Waylon and make sure they cover me until I’m back.”

She’s silent on the drive into town but squeezes my hand. When I pull up to her apartment building, I jump out and open her door.
