Something Old Something New (Lost Love Series) (Erotic Romance) (3 page)

Emily sighed and sat down in a chair near the bed. When Mia came back into the room, however, Emily was back on her feet.

“What’s this?” she asked, holding up a small piece of fabric. It was Will’s bowtie.

“It’s not what you think,” Mia began to explain.

“A one-night stand with a guy you haven’t seen since you refused to marry him in high school?” Emily supplied.

“No,” said Mia. “I’m not going to lie - I was all for it. Will, however, was too much of a gentleman to do more than kiss me. He did sneak out in the morning before I woke up though, so I guess you get partial credit.”

“Well shit,” said Emily, sitting down on the bed.

“Pretty much,” agreed Mia, sitting beside her.

Chapter 7

As the pastor was speaking, Mia did not hear a single word she said. The whole ceremony long, she found herself fully occupied with trying not to stare at Will. Last night she had been horny, but today she had a headache and was pissed. Sneaking out was a dick move. They had so much to talk about, and he had just disappeared.

She forced herself to focus on the ceremony when Emily and Matt started saying their vows. They had both opted to speak the traditional vows rather than writing their own. Emily was very traditional like that.

Mia felt her eyes filling with tears as Emily promised to take Matt to be her lawfully wedded husband till death do they part. It was so beautiful, and her friend was so happy. She smiled through her tears as the pastor pronounced them man and wife. Mia hoped that one day she could be half as happy as Emily looked.

At the reception, she was seated next to Will again.

“So you snuck out rather early this morning,” she commented.

“I didn’t sneak out.” He sounded offended. “You were asleep, and I didn’t want to wake you.”

“You were in enough of a hurry that you forgot your bowtie,” she countered, raising an amused eyebrow.

“Did I really?” he laughed.

“Emily found it when she came to wake me up with a florist emergency,” Mia confirmed. Will winced.

“What did you tell her?” he asked.

“The truth of course,” Mia told him. “I told her you stayed in my room last night, and then you felt compelled to sneak out after the sex we didn’t have.”

“I did not sneak out!” he protested.

“Oh you definitely snuck out. You were too afraid to actually keep your promise and talk with me.”

“Mia,” he said, his voice low, “I have never broken a promise to you. I said we could talk about it later, and we will.”

“How about now?” she suggested.

“Now?” he asked incredulously.

“Now,” she confirmed. “Just promise that you’ll hear me out, okay?” She waited until he nodded before she began to speak.

“When you proposed, I was seventeen. I was still in high school, and I was scared. My boyfriend was leaving to join the army, and I worried that I would be a widow as soon as I was a wife. I still do not believe I did anything wrong by making the choice I did. Logically speaking, it was the right choice to make.” She could see the pain in his face as she reminded him of that horrible night. Mia knew she had broken his heart. “However, that does not mean I was not completely, utterly, madly in love with you. The way you left, just disappearing like that without a word nearly killed me. I was a wreck the whole next year worrying about you.”

“I’m sorry Mia,” he said, taking hold of her hand. “I was a kid. I was hurt, and I was angry. I never expected you to reject me like that. It crushed me.”

“What are you two doing still sitting here!” Kathleen burst suddenly into their conversation. “You should be out there dancing! Set an example for the rest of the guests!”

“I’m not much of a dancer anymore, Kathy,” Will reminded her, pointing at his fake foot.

“I’ll have them play a slow one next,” she refused to be dissuaded. “Get out there, now!”

“Come on,” said Mia, standing up. When it came to Kathleen, it was best to pick your battles. “Dance with me. I still dance as badly as I ever did. You’ll look fantastic.”

As they made their way onto the dance floor, the DJ switched to a slow love ballad. Will pulled Mia into his arms, and they began to sway to the music.

“You know, even though logically speaking, I am sure I made the right choice, most days I wish I had said yes,” Mia murmured into his ear. She wasn’t quite brave enough to look him in the face.

“So do I.”

Mia pulled back slightly to look him in the eyes. When she did, she could see he meant it.

“But yesterday,” she stammered. “When I first saw you, my heart stopped. You seemed like you did not even recognize me.”

“I was going crazy,” he confessed. “I was just forcing myself to stay calm and not react because I knew if I lost control for even a second I was going to pull you into my arms and try to make you regret ever saying no. When I saw the way you were flirting with that groomsman, I almost lost it.”

“Flirting?” she laughed. “Will, Zack is gay. We’re old friends, and I just thought talking to him might distract me from you.”

“But your hands were all over him,” protested Will.

“You know me – I get handsy when I’m drunk,” she reminded him. “You saw the embarrassment I made of myself last night.”

“Embarrassment?” he asked. He sounded slightly offended, which was just what she wanted to hear.

“Of course,” she said, trying to keep her voice light. “You have your rule – don’t sleep with drunks, and I have mine – don’t try to sleep with guys who clearly have no interest in sleeping with you.”

“You think I don’t want to sleep with you?” he asked.

“Well, I think you made that pretty clear last night,” she said. “It’s all right. I’m not offended. I know I don’t have the body I did when I was seventeen.”

“Now that’s just ridiculous. You are so much sexier than you were then. We were just kids. Now you’re a woman with real curves and everything. Trust me, you’re gorgeous. If Emily’s great Aunt Dorothy weren’t watching us, I would already be tearing your clothes off.”

“Really?” she asked softly. “Do you mean that?”

“So is this what we’re doing now? Playing games, being coy?” he asked, raising an eyebrow. She could tell he was amused.

“Hey – what can I say?” she shrugged. “I was feeling nostalgic. Want to ditch the party, go back to my room, and have sex?”

“Absolutely.”

Chapter 8

This time when Will kissed her, it was soft and gentle. There was no need to rush. They had all night. He held her close, and she melted into his arms. Gently, he kissed her eyelids, her cheeks, her neck, and finally her lips.

She sighed with pleasure, exploring the hard muscles of his back with her fingertips. She felt him reach around her and slowly unzip her dress. The pressure of his body against hers held it to her until he took a step away. She felt her dress slide down her body and onto the floor. She held his hand for balance as she stepped out of it.

“You are so incredibly beautiful,” he said, his eyes roaming over her body. When he had looked his fill, he pulled her back into his arms to kiss her once more.

As he kissed her, she began to pull his shirt out of his trousers. Then button by button, she slowly began removing it. Soon it had joined her dress on the floor. He yanked the white shirt he wore under it over his head. Once he was shirtless, he lifted her into his arms and carried her over to the bed. She laughed with glee when instead of setting her down gently, he tossed her onto the bed.

“I love you so much,” she told him as he stood beside the bed, admiring her while unbuckling his belt.

“I love you too.” Even if he hadn’t spoken, she would have known. His eyes said it all. In a moment, he was standing naked beside the bed. Will reached down and grabbed her by the waist. He pulled her to the edge of the bed so that he could reach around her to unhook her bra. Mia shivered slightly as the cool air touched her breast. Her nipples hardened with arousal and the chill.

For a second, Will just admired her. Then he reached down to assist her as she slipped out of her panties.

“You are unbelievably gorgeous, Mia.” When he looked at her like that, she believed him. He slid into bed beside her. Mia’s naked body was pressed against him. She could feel his hard arousal pressing against her leg as he bowed his head to kiss her breasts. Soon he covered her nipple with his hot, wet mouth. She moaned at the sensation.

As he kissed and sucked her breasts, she reached down to stroke his hard cock. He groaned with pleasure as she caressed him. He slipped his hand between them, sliding it down her tummy until he found her pussy. She was already so wet. He met no resistance at all when he slid a finger into her wet passage. Quickly he added another finger.

Slowly he began sliding his fingers in and out of her body while using his thumb to put some pressure on her clit. All the while, he kept teasing and sucking her breasts. Mia found herself moaning and panting with the overload of pleasure points he was stimulating. She needed more.

She pushed him away from her, and held him down so he lay flat on the bed. Then she mounted him. His cock slid into her pussy to the hilt. She held him there for a moment before beginning to ride him. He reached up to caress her breasts as she set a nice steady rhythm, sliding up and down on his hard shaft.

As she found herself climbing higher and higher, Will reached a hand down to help her along. He began toying with her clit as she rode him. Mia came hard, moaning his name as her orgasm took hold of her. She felt her pussy spasming around Will’s cock. It was enough to push him over the edge as well. Just a few moments later, he came as well. She heard him gasping her name as she felt his seed release into her womb. Panting, she fell back onto the bed.

Finally she regained the ability to speak.

“Let’s do that again.” She smiled as she rolled over to face him. He grinned back.

“Baby, we’re going to do that all night.”
