Reece

What
the fuck should I do? Should I say?
I knew I’d
screwed up royally, but I had no idea I’d upset the girl in my arms as much as I
obviously have. I have no doubt that she’s going to be pissed as hell in the
morning once she’s had a chance to sleep on it. Perhaps, sneaking out before
she wakes might be in order –
fuck
– I can’t do that. Not this time.

I gradually untangle myself from her arms,
and grab some tissues from the box on the floor of the SUV, which I shove into
her hands.

She turns away, refusing to look at me.

“Callie?”

Shaking her head, she continues to use the
napkins to mop up with and gets herself comfortable in her seat, still avoiding
my eyes. And some seat it is. Ruben has one hell of a ride with this black
beast. Even the interior is black – black leather seats, black marble
dash. It sure as hell suits him.

Moving my gaze back to Callie, I start to
get exasperated with her, but I refuse to budge until she acknowledges me. No
way am I going to let her get away with the silent treatment, and if she thinks
I’ve forgotten about wanting to talk she can think again. First things first
though, I want to know what the hell happened to her back there. She’s getting
some color back into her cheeks, but she still looks clammy.

“You want to stay there all night?” she
asks me, her voice rough because of the crying.

“No. I’m waiting for you to look at me.” I
stand with my hands on my hips as I watch her slowly turn her head toward me.
Staying put and not reaching out to her takes a hell of a lot out of me. Just
one look into her swimming eyes is nearly enough to undo me. “That’s better.”

I close the door and run around to the
driver’s side, climbing in I don’t waste any time in starting the engine and
getting us out of there. I just hope she’ll talk to me once we arrive back at
the hotel.

~ * ~

I don’t do silence. Silence drives me crazy
and makes me damn twitchy. During the drive back to the hotel, Callie stared
out of her window without one glance in my direction. I tried. I even resorted
to mentioning the weather, which was pretty damn lame. All I wanted to do was
pull the SUV over, unclip our seat belts and pull her into my arms and make her
forget all the stupid things I’ve done. I’m not sure that would have worked
though.

She’s now in the bathroom taking a shower
while I lounge back on her bed wondering if she’ll let me share it with her. I
want nothing more than to go back to the morning in Alabama when I ran out on
her, except this time I wouldn’t run out. I’d stay and finish what we
started…and I’d probably give her my cell number, which I never give to anyone.

Hearing the door open, I try not to look,
but my eyes have a mind of their own and zoom straight into her standing in the
doorway, looking very unsure.

“Callie, c’mon babe. You’re tired.” I climb
from the bed and pull the cover back on the opposite side before indicating
with my arms that she should climb in.

After a few seconds of hesitation, she
quickly moves to the opposite side and jumps into the bed, pulling the covers
up to her chest.

She’s going to kill me. Knowing there is
only a thin sheet and blanket covering her sexy curves in her panties and
t-shirt. Yeah, I caught the flash of panties as she jumped into bed. It was
totally unavoidable while I was looking at her gorgeous legs.

Without moving our eyes from the other, I
reach out to the wall and make a quick move to knock the lights out before she
notices my reaction to her. The same reaction she causes every time I look at
her – every time I hear her voice. Plunging us into complete darkness, I
cuss because I’d forgotten to switch the lamp on to the right of the bed before
getting up.

Groping around in the dark, my hand finally
connects with the lamp. After switching it on, I chance another look at Callie,
only to find her biting her lip, trying not to laugh.

I grin before winking at her. “Although
you’ve seen everything I have, you might want to shut your eyes.” Reaching for
my zipper, I pull it down and unbutton my jeans before kicking them off my
legs, thanking God I’d decided to wear shorts. “You know? I never knew you
could be so quiet.”

She clears her throat. “Where…” She coughs
before trying again. “Where are you planning on sleeping?”

Sitting on the bed, I keep my back to her,
trying to hide my smile. “I’m sleeping right beside ya, darlin’.” Propping the
pillows up against the headboard, I quickly slide underneath the covers before
she has time to think and lean back. Getting into a comfortable position, I
pull her into my arms, cuddling her against my chest.

She sighs, slipping her hand slowly up my
stomach with it coming to a rest on my chest. “Don’t get any
sex
ideas, because it isn’t happening
and if I was feeling myself then you wouldn’t be in this room.”

I hate that. The fact that she’s only being
compliant because she isn’t well, which is my next question. “So, what happened
back there…and don’t tell me nothing.”

Stroking her back, I feel her take a deep
breath in and out. She stays silent. “Callie, please tell me.”

“I…I don’t do well in confined spaces
– dark spaces. They send me into a panic.” She snuggles more into me.
“It’s been a hell of a long time since I’ve had one like that… Stress can, um, tends
to make them worse than usual.” Laughing, she says, “I can’t believe I’m about
to admit this, but I’m glad you were there. To get me outta there…Thank you.”

Lying down in the bed, I turn her over and
spoon behind her, burying my nose into her neck. I inhale and then nip her neck
slightly with my teeth before forcing myself to pull away, but not before I
feel her shiver in my arms.

“I’m still not having sex with you.”

I chuckle, which ends on a groan when she
rubs her backside against my cock that’s not only hard and pulsing with a life
of its own, but leaking in excitement, which she’s going to discover unless she
stops. Grabbing her hips, I hold her still and kiss her on the back of her head
before saying, “Sleep Callie…before you kill me.”

“I’ve told you something tonight that no
one knows about me apart from Thalia… Tomorrow, will you tell me what happened
– why?”

Closing my eyes, I try to think of how to
answer. I know exactly what she’s referring to, I’m just not sure what the
fuck
to say to her. At least without
Dahlia being brought into the conversation and she’s the one person I won’t
talk about. Dahlia’s story isn’t mine to tell. No one knows it, not even my
closest friends. Phoenix and Donovan have accepted my decision to stay quiet
about her, although I took a lot of grief over her to begin with.

I may be a dick every now and again, but
the thought of losing Callie again, now I’ve gotten her to at least be in the
same room as me isn’t an option.
Shit
,
we’re sharing a bed, which I never thought would ever happen again. Okay, we’re
not naked…yet, but my cock and I live in hope.

“Yeah. Tomorrow. Go to sleep. I’m fucked.”

Callie

Slowly coming out of my slumber, I try not
to move until I can figure out what I’m lying against because whatever it is,
it’s hot and hard or at least what’s jabbing into my backside is. I open my
eyes and notice daylight coming through the slats of the blinds, which are only
partially closed.

I press against the solid presence behind
me and freeze when I hear a groan.
Fuckshit
–
Reece!
Last night comes
rushing back at me. My panic attack. Reece bringing me back to the hotel.
Holding me while I admitted to him about my reaction to close spaces. He
basically looked after me, and from the feel of things, he held me all night,
not necessarily comfortable for him though if he’s been in that condition all
night.

But feeling him behind me with his arm
still over my stomach is doing something to my body. All I want is to get even
closer to him. To forget all the reasons why I should stay clear of him. All
the reasons why I need to keep my libido from coming into contact with Reece.
It goes haywire the minute he so much as looks at me.

Right now my nipples are pointed tips
needing his hands on them and my pussy is wet and throbbing, begging for
relief. I rub my legs together to try and ease the ache going on down there,
but all that does is bring me into closer contact with Reece’s dick.

With a slight hip movement, I rub back and
forth against him, unable to stop because he feels too good. Moaning, I add
more pressure…and find myself flat on my back with Reece straddling me, his
cock resting on my pussy.

“You’re playing with fire.” He breathes in
and out, his chest rising and falling against my aching nipples as he holds my
wrists above my head with heavily lidded eyes.

I whisper, “I thought I was playing with
you.”

He groans before sealing his mouth with
mine. No sweet, butterfly kisses. Not Reece. He goes for full attack. The taste
of him is intoxicating. The feel of his tongue pushing back and forth into my
mouth has my panties flooding with my wetness.

While he continues to devour my mouth, I
try to grind against him, which isn’t easy as he’s still straddling me.

“Fuck, Callie.” He lets out a loud groan
separating our mouths, panting. He lets go of my wrists and brings one hand to
the side of my face and the other slips underneath my ass, holding me tight
against him.

I can feel his cock pulsing against me with
only his shorts and my panties separating us. God, I want him so badly.

He starts to pull away, but I can’t let
him. I’m so close to my orgasm that I’m not sure I can survive if he doesn’t
finish this.

“No…”

I grab his face with my hands and bring him
back down to me, sliding my tongue into his mouth and tangling my tongue with
his.

“Callie…we have to talk.” He tries to stop
me, but his lips trail all over my face to my neck and collarbone.

I arch into him, trying to get him to show
some love to my nipples. He chuckles.

“Talk later,” I pant as the tension builds
in my body. “Make me come…so close.”

His eyes lose the laughter and fill with
lust again.

He lifts my t-shirt off over my head and
looks at my breasts. I’ve always been, um, well endowed, and I’m lucky enough
to have high, firm, perky breasts.

“God, you’re beautiful,” Reece croaks out,
licking his lips.

“I want your mouth on them.”

His eyes burn into me before his mouth
descends, sucking one nipple into his mouth. I hold onto his head as he laps at
each one in turn. I arch my back in pleasure and try to rub my pussy against
his dick, but he’s out of reach because of where his mouth is.

Coming back to my mouth, he plunders with
his tongue the way I remember him doing between my thighs. Now our bodies are
more aligned, I can feel him against me.

While he continues tongue fucking my mouth,
I wriggle out of my panties, kicking them out of the way. With a bit of
maneuvering I move my legs and manage to get him between them instead of
straddling. Reaching out, I push his shorts down over his erection and stroke
the silky smooth length.

“No.” He moves my hand and holds it above
my head, but the root of him gets wedged up against my pussy, driving me insane
with lust.

Reece breaks away from the kiss and looms
above me, trying to catch his breath. “You’re so fucking wet.
Shit
.” He drops his head into the crook
of my neck and pumps his hips against me. Rubbing the length of his cock
between my soaked pussy lips.

I grind against him, chasing my orgasm,
which starts to take a hold of me with the tightening of my stomach muscles.
Reece kisses his way down to my breasts, and takes my nipple back into his
mouth and with one suck, I’m flooding his balls with my release – I can’t
breathe – I can’t stop writhing against him.

“Ah…fuck.” Reece rears up from my chest. I
look down and watch his cock twitch with his release, all over my stomach and
breasts. “Callie.” He kisses my lips before resting his forehead against mine.
“I didn’t mean for that to happen. It’s so fucking hot watching you come undone
because of me… I only ever lose control with you.” He laughs. “Shit, I can’t
even get it up unless you’re on my mind.”

My eyes widen as his go hooded so I can’t
see what he’s thinking.

He starts to climb off me, but I tighten my
arms on his. “Reece…”

“Shush. Let me clean you up.”

I let my hands fall back to the bed and
watch him walk to the bathroom, in all his naked glory.

Staring up at the ceiling, I start to
wonder what the hell is wrong with me. Why can’t I stop throwing myself at this
man? He’s hurt me more than anyone, but I still go back for more.

“Ah.” I jump as a warm cloth hits my
stomach. Kneeling between my legs, he uses the cloth to wipe his cum from me,
which I’m kinda covered in and by the smirk on Reece’s face I’d say he’s enjoying
the fact.

I don’t say anything and watch him as he
looks at my body; his eyes becoming hooded the more he stares.

My want and need is telling me to stay in
bed with him all day, but my brain, which has started to function again, is
telling me to dress and leave. This is so damn awkward not to mention
frustrating.

“You’re thinking too hard.”

Taking a deep breath, I say, “And we need
to dress. We’re leaving today.”

I start to roll off the bed, but Reece
stops me by grabbing hold of my ankle. I meet his eyes and see questions that
I’m not sure how to answer staring back at me.
 
Ignoring everything in his eyes, I go on
the counter defensive, “You said you’d tell me what happened… You were in bed
with me and without a word you went running off to another woman. If you needed
to leave because you didn’t want to be with me, you only had to…”

He covers my mouth with his hand, lying
against me, but keeping his weight off the top of me by resting his elbows
beside my face. “Callie, I fucked up okay. I admit it. Something happened and I
had to leave quickly. I didn’t want to leave you, but Dahlia needed me more
than you did right then.”

I try to talk but he keeps his fingers over
my mouth.

“I can’t tell you about Dahlia because it’s
her story to tell, but I can tell you that I’ve never had any kind of sex with
her. Not once. And I never will… And now you know more than the guys because
they think every time I slip out back at Ryder’s with her that she’s blowing
me, but that’s what we let everyone believe. I trust you to keep that to
yourself.”

Should I believe him? I want to. He seems
sincere but why would he let everyone think she’s ‘blowing’ him. That doesn’t
make sense. I’m looking deep into his eyes trying to read the truth in them. He
looks tormented though, so I reach up and caress his face with my hands,
bringing him down to me for a gentle kiss.

He sighs against my lips before pulling
away.

“It doesn’t make sense,” I whisper. “You
letting everyone think she’s…well,” I wave my arms around, searching for the right
thing to say, “blowing you…but I’ll leave it…for now.” I take a deep breath and
ask something that I know is going to break the loved feeling we have going on
right now, “The woman. Last night…” I shake my head.

“Donovan had been ragging on me about you.
Being an ass, I walked off not wanting to face what I’d done, and grabbed the
first chick who looked game. The second time was because I was jealous seeing
you enjoying yourself with someone other than me… And in the interest of
completely cleaning the air between us,” he gulps, “she blew me in the band
room before the gig…and later…
fuck
…I
had you in my head both times. When I came in the condom, I shouted your
name…that didn’t go down too well… So now you know everything.”

I’m trying to take in everything that he’s
telling me. We haven’t spoken for weeks and now we’re naked in bed, with his
big body lying on top of me and talking as though…he has real feelings for me.
I honestly don’t want to think about what I caught him doing last night and in
truth I’m not sure how I’m supposed to feel knowing that it was me he was
imagining.

“Callie…please…say something.”

I don’t think I’ve ever seen him look
nervous before, but he does now. He looks as though he’s gearing up for my
rejection. Would it really bother him if I tell him to go to hell? I’m not sure
if I have the heart to do that to him, because I do have real feelings for him.

“What do you want from me? Where do we go
from here?” I ask the question that’s been hovering around inside my head since
he started talking to me. Despite the emotions warring through my body, I’m
surprised at how calm I sound.

“I’m sick of fighting what’s between us,
you could do a lot better than me, but I don’t have it in me to walk away from
you again.”

He leans in and kisses me as I feel another
part of his body coming to life. Well, it never really lost its life, but now
his dick’s making itself known as it lengthens and expands into a steal rod
against me. I open my mouth and let him deepen the kiss, which goes from zero
to ten within seconds. Moaning, I wrap my legs around his waist as his fingers
slip between my folds.

Groaning into my mouth, Reece lifts his
head. “I want to try this relationship thing…with you… I can’t promise I’m not
going to screw it up, because I always screw up the good things in my life. But
I can promise you it won’t be because of another woman.”

I feel tears slip out of my eyes and slide
down my face into my hair, which Reece follows with his lips, kissing and
licking them away.

“I’d like that. I really would,” I whisper
into his ear.

He raises his head and reaching between us,
takes hold of his cock before guiding it to my entrance where he enters me
slowly with just the tip.

“God, you’re always wet,” he states in a
voice thick with lust.

“Only for you. I want all of you…now.”

He slams into me, his balls hitting my ass.

“
Fuck!
I want you so damn much, I can’t go slow.” He clenches his jaw and closes his
eyes as I clench my internal muscles around his dick. I love having this power
over him. Wanting him to lose control, I place my arms over my head and arch
up. His eyes pop open. He growls, slides both his hands underneath my shoulders
and holds on to me, and then he slowly slides out of me before he starts to
nail me to the bed. So fast – so hard – so good…so…so…delicious.

The only sound in the room is the slapping
of skin as our groins meet, which also causes a squelching noise because I’m so
friggin’ wet for him.

Feeling my orgasm building to volcanic
proportions, I start to moan, which Reece catches in his mouth, treating me to
a tongue-lashing as wild and unrestrained as the way he is driving his cock
into me.

I fly apart, making keening noises into his
mouth as I flood his cock and groin with my release.

 
Still on a high, Reece slams inside me
once, twice, three times before withdrawing and rising up to straddle my waist.
Knowing he’s about to come, I reach out and wrap my hand around his cock with
my other sliding under his balls and gently squeezing just in time to watch him
release all over my breasts. Over and over again with his head thrown back as
his cock jerks and releases – jerks and releases.

Shit
. That was so friggin’ hot, watching him come like that. His cock
still throbs in my hand as I watch him try to catch his breath as he looms over
me.
