Forbidden Forever (8 page)

Her voice is soft on the
other end. "Hi, I just missed you and wanted to make sure you
were okay. I know we're over, but you have been my best friend since
I was 6 so, yeah, I just missed you."

"I know what you
mean, Cathy. I just well...what do I say to make it easier?" I
tell her.

"Chance, just tell
me you love her. Tell me that now we will both find happiness,"
she utters.

I should have known she
would know there is someone else. We both didn't love each other the
way married people should, but we still loved each other enough to
know what the other was thinking.

"Cathy, I love her.
She is who I wanted my life to end with before all this happened. I
love you as my lifelong friend and I love you for our memories, but
we are adults and we can't live in that house, waiting to get out. It
was time," I explain to her as caring as possible.

"I am so happy that
you have found someone. I only want the best for us both. I'll be
back next week to start sorting through the house. I think it is best
we sell it and move on from it all, but I hope we can still remain
friends after everything," she points out.

"We will always be
friends. No hard feelings here, just memories. Tell me what you need
me to do to help with the transition and I'll get it done," I
tell her.

"Sure we will. I
will let you go now and call you next week when I get to town."
Her voice cracks a little when she says goodbye.

I know it is hard for
her because I feel the void of not having my friend around after a
lifetime of seeing each other almost every day. I don't think we
spent a total of 3 weeks apart if you added all the days together.
Our families vacationed together so we were only apart in college
really and even those were just miles apart. Big life changes but I
need Laney. I want her to be the end of my story, my forever after.

I drive my car tonight
because I am wearing this tux and the last thing it needs is bug guts
stuck to it when I get there. I pull into the hospital and notice
Laney's car parked in the back where she usually parks. It must be
out of habit to park so far out. I walk in and get stopped what feels
like a million times before I finally see her on the other side of
the room. Her hair is down the way I like, with a little curl to it
that isn't over the top. Before I reach the table, I notice her legs
crossed and I can see the top of her thigh from the slit in her
dress. My heart skips a beat at the sight of her creamy skin and I
can already tell where this night is headed. I'll have a hard on and
be hiding behind chairs and napkins so everyone around me can't see
how happy I am to be here in a room with her.

Sierra notices me but
doesn't say anything to Laney and walks away with the waiter instead.
It is possible she didn't see me, but I think she knows more than she
lets on. I reach Laney and bend down to her delectable ear. "You
look absolutely stunning, Laney. Please come and dance with me,"
I say in a deep tone. Being this close to her around all these people
watching our every move is a huge turn on because I know it is
forbidden. She takes my hand and we walk to the dance floor. There
are not a lot of people dancing so it makes it even more noticeable
that we have wrapped ourselves into one another.

"So, Dr. Turner,
are you worried about what everyone is thinking right now?" she
says smugly.

I laugh. "No. I'll
go dance with Sierra later and really get their minds going."

She shakes her head and
loose curls bounce in the light.

"That might make
you a man whore, Dr. Turner. Getting a bad rep and so soon after your
separation. Shame. Shame," she says.

"Did you just call
me a whore, Mrs. Collins?" I joke.

"Yes, I did,"
she says, leaning her head up to face me, laughing.

"If we weren't in a
room full of hospital employees, I would bend you over my knee,"
I tease.

"That sounds really
fucking hot, Dr. Turner," she whispers.

"Damn, my cock just
got hard. Are you trying to turn me on?" I grab my pants to
readjust them.

"You better believe
it. I'm so fucking horny right now I don't know how much more of
being this close I can take," she breathlessly admits.

"I need to make
some rounds and make the proposal speech, once that is done you can
leave. I will be behind you shortly after. Meet me at my car," I
utter.

"Will you spank me
if I don't?" she teases me.

"I'll spank you if
you do." I grin.

If she only knew how
badly I would love to watch her cheeks turn pink and to hear her moan
my name as I make her cum. Fuck, I need to get out of here before I
have a mess to clean up, or worse, make her look like some home
wrecker. What the gossipers don't know is that my home was wrecked
before it got started. I slip my key out of my pocket and drop it
down her bared cleavage without bringing it to anyone's attention.
The proposal for the expansion of the Heart Center went over so well
I think they might approve the funding for it. Man, that girl has
brought a lot of luck into my life already. I see Laney get up from
her table and leave out the front door. I make more rounds, shaking
hands and talking with the board directors of the hospital.

Ten minutes feels like a
lifetime when you are waiting for something better than dessert. Oh
yes, she is better than any desserts I have ever had touch my lips. I
express to everyone that I have to head home because I have a phone
meeting in the early morning. No one questions me since I have been
working so hard on getting funding for the expansion. I open the car
door and get into the seat, grab the key from the console, and crank
the car. I love the sound it makes when it first comes to life. Not
quite as sexy as my Harley but still one hot sound. I see her thigh
showing from the way her dress has risen up in the seat. I have
wanted to touch it all night so I slowly and softly place my hand on
it. She jerks just a hair from the intensity only we share together.

My breath quickens
because the feel of her is like drinking your first cup of coffee in
the morning or tasting the finest chocolate. There are no words to
describe the feeling; you just have to let yourself feel it for
yourself. Something you love to taste, love to smell, love to feel.
That's her for me. Ecstasy! I want to take her for a ride down the
coast to one of my favorite spots. I have only been here alone and
usually come when my life seems like it will never get to a place I
can truly be happy. I want to share it with her because she has
filled me with more completeness in the last several months than I
have felt in the last several years.

"You like the car?"
I ask.

She just keeps staring
at it like she is in awe.

"Umm, is that a
trick question? Because this car is orgasmic. I don't just like it, I
fucking love it," she jokingly explains.

I ask with a wicked
smile, "More than me?"

"Well, if I was a
car, I would totally do it." She bats her amazing blue eyes at
me and smirks.

"Oh hell no, I'll
have to do something about that. No way is a car going to make you
that hot. It's on!" I hissed.

I pick her up and swing
her around until I finally crush our lips together. Setting her on
the top of my car, I waste no time in getting my hands between her
thighs, but abruptly stop and set her back down at my feet. I grab
her hand and lead her to the dock that will take us out to the inlet.
It couldn't have been a more perfect night with the moon being in
full bloom and the temperature perfect for the things I have planned.
She kisses my neck softly and glides her tongue up my jaw. This woman
has no idea how this feels for me. After years of being married to
someone and having no passion with them, I feel like this is my first
time. Deep down I am so nervous. I know we have done it before, but
it was in the heat of the moment and I have had so much time to think
about all the ways I would have made her feel more.

I grab her hair, pulling
her head back so I can press my lips to hers. The feel of her lips on
mine, the taste of her tongue just has me wanting more. I reach down
to her ass and pull her close to me. She is insanely turning me on
with every movement she makes. Her leg wraps around me as I reach for
the zipper on her dress. I want this fucking thing off her so I can
feel her skin on mine. It pools at her feet; carefully, I lean her
back on the deck and her hands have undone my zipper and firmly
grabbed a hold of my cock. Fuck. The pressure building inside is so
intense I am about to explode but I know this is for her, not me. I
release the bra and lick each nipple teasingly as they hardened from
the intensity. My hand reaches the opening of that pink pussy I have
been waiting for days to fill again. The wetness and warmness I feel
is so fucking earth shattering. I start with one finger just to feel
the amazing slickness, sliding in two fingers to pleasure her and
circling her clit to drive her crazy.

I am so lost in the
moment that my only thoughts are on pleasing her and how great it
makes me feel. I lean up and lick her stomach, just above her sex,
and I place her leg on my shoulder and get in the best position I can
imagine at this moment. I want to taste her so bad and make her feel
like she made me feel that day in my office—the day that
changed my whole life. Her legs relax, giving me access to the prime
location. I am sucking, licking, going in and out and then she moves
her hand down to her clitoris and starts moving in a circular motion,
up and down. Holy fuck! I didn't think I could be more turned on than
watching her touch herself as I am pleasing her. I can't take it
anymore and I stick my dick into her wet, swollen pussy and rock in
and out until we both come apart.

Our breath is heavy and
I can't hold myself up any longer. Lying next to her, I put my cock
back in my pants. Though she is wearing nothing, she doesn't try to
hide herself, but instead wraps herself around me.

Breaking the silence
after minutes pass and we gaze at the stars, I whisper, "I love
you. I love everything about you, Laney. I love the inner child, the
confident professional, the mother, the best friend and my lover. I
just want to love you as my wife."

She answers, "Someday
I will be." I don't know if she means it enough to leave her
husband and break up her family, but for today I will take it. I
smile. She stands up after the night air gets too cool to lay in
undressed. I walk up behind her after she finishes getting redressed
and wrap my arms around her waist. Breathing in her smell brings a
sense of calmness over me. I nibble at her ear and she slaps me on
the arm. I want to jump from her reaction but she starts giggling.

"Don't you ever
have enough?" she asks.

"No, I don't think
I'll ever get my fill of you. You are like an addiction I don't want
to kick," I say.

"I hope you never
do," she confesses.

"No worries, my
love. It will never happen. What I feel for you is something I have
only dreamed of, never felt. I will never let you go," I admit.

"You never felt
this way about your wife?" she asks.

"No, our
relationship was never based on love like that but more like a
friendly business arrangement. We didn't really choose the life we
had together it seemed to choose us," I admit.

"I don't
understand. How does something like marriage choose you?" she
questions me.

"Well, Laney, it is
a long story and I'd rather not talk about it right now. It doesn't
affect anything that happens anymore. I want to look to a future with
you and spend all my moments in the here and now. No more past and no
more sadness. Just us," I say.

"This is all I
want, too, but I want to know your life and if you don't want to let
me in then how will I let you in?" she utters.

"I didn't mean
forever, sweetness. I mean right in this moment, can't we just be us?
We will discuss this at another time. I want you to know everything
about me and I want to know everything about you," I murmur.

We head back to the
hospital and I drop her off at her car. Watching her safely pull
away, I sit alone, saddened by the fact she isn't coming home with me
tonight. I head to my empty house, full of the last six years of my
life. It's time to get out of here so maybe Laney will see I am for
real about us. I don't want us to be forbidden, but instead I want
her to see us as forever.

Laney's
POV

The week flies by and we
have Saturday planned so we can spend some time together. Chance has
been moving his things from his house into the condo throughout the
week. His soon-to-be ex-wife left to visit her parents to give him
time to retrieve his things. Apparently she is very pleased about the
whole thing, though he didn't tell her about me. Strangest
relationship ever, in my opinion, but who am I to judge? I've been
married to an asshole for years and now I am having an affair with my
boss. There was no reason to make things more difficult than they
already are, especially since she was happy it was over. Callie is
staying with Brooke tonight so she won't be questioning my
whereabouts; however, the lie breaks my heart.
