Without You (13 page)

I let out the breath I had been holding and glanced over to Lex. She smiled weakly, and we both got into the trucks and headed to Luke’s house.

Luke didn’t say a word to me the whole way back to his house. I parked his truck, and he got out and started walking to the barn.

“Luke, I’ll leave the keys in the truck.”

He raised his hand and called out, “Thanks, Will. I appreciate it.”

I shook my head and made my way to my truck. Lex had jumped out and moved to the passenger side.

Once I got in, I looked at her and sighed. “Jesus, our friends are like a damn soap opera.”

Lex giggled and grabbed my hand. “I’m just glad Libby came to her senses.”

I ran my hand down my face. “God, so am I.”

“So, what’s this surprise?”

I put the truck in drive. I smiled at her, and then I headed toward my house.

“Will, where are we going? We’re not even on the road anymore!”

I laughed. I had come through our property’s back gate so that my parents wouldn’t know we were back. I was driving on one of the old trails that Libby and I had made with our horses years ago when we would go to our secret fort. We’d spent three years building it. My father had helped us with a few of the things, but we’d mostly built it ourselves. It was our secret place that none of our friends even knew about. Libby and I had camped out there so many times that my parents had ended up buying us twin beds for it. Looking back now, I couldn’t believe that we hadn’t been afraid to stay there alone.

“Just a little bit more, and then we’ll be there.” As I pulled up, I could see the faint outline of the building.

“What is that?” Lex asked.

I put the truck in park. “Hold on, babe.” I jumped out and opened the back door. I grabbed the two duffel bags that I had packed earlier today and a flashlight. I walked around and opened Lex’s door. Then, I turned on the flashlight.

We made our way up, and Lex let out a gasp.

“Will, is this your and Lib’s secret house?”

I stopped and looked at her. “What? How do you know about it? It’s supposed to be a secret!” I felt betrayed by my own sister.

Lex giggled. “Libby accidentally let it slip about two years ago. She made Grace and me swear that we would never let you know that we knew. Oh my word…y’all built this, Will?”

I looked back at the tiny hideaway. “Yep. My dad helped put the windows and door in, and he built us a few things inside, but Lib and I did most of it. We would spend hours down here, just me and her talking.”

Lex bit down on her lip. “I love the bond that you and Libby share. It’s amazing.”

I nodded my head. “Libby had the idea to use this place for you and me. Kind of like our own little cabin in the woods.” I grabbed her hand and led her up to the door. “Let me just make sure no snakes or anything got in here. My dad made sure we were doing things right along the way, but ya never know.”

She giggled and nodded her head. “Okay.”

I unlocked the door and walked in. I dropped the bags onto the small round table and started digging through one of them. I pulled out the bigger flashlight and turned it on.

“Oh, damn, Lib. I freaking owe you big time,” I said to myself.

The room was filled with unlit candles. A bouquet of flowers was sitting on the little table that separated the two twin beds. I shined the light over and saw the two beanbag chairs. An image of Lex on top of me in one of those chairs filled my mind, and I had to adjust my growing dick.

I quickly reached in a bag for the lighter and began lighting a candle. “Hold on, Lex!” I shouted.

She laughed. “You either found a snake, or you’re up to something! Is that light I’m seeing?”

“Patience, baby. I promise, it will be worth it.”

“You do know you left me outside…in the dark…with no flashlight.”

I closed my eyes and silently cussed as I ran back over to the second bag and unzipped it. I pulled out a gift box and set it down on my bed. I swallowed hard, thinking about the gift I had bought for Lex when Luke, Grace, and I went into Austin last week. Grace had helped me pick it out.

I walked over and lit the candle by the beanbags. Then, I put the lighter and big flashlight back into one duffel bag and threw it down on the floor. Next, I pulled out a box of chocolates and a few bottles of water from the other bag. I set them on the small table before putting that bag on top of the other. I walked over to the door and slowly opened it, but Lex was gone.

“Lex? Baby, where are you?”

The light in my truck came on as Lex opened the passenger door. “I kind of got spooked, so I ran back to the truck.”

I wanted to laugh, but I quickly walked over to her. “I’m so sorry, sweetheart.”

I picked her up, and she let out a small scream as I carried her back over to the secret clubhouse. I pushed the door open more, so we could walk in, and Lex let out a gasp.

“Oh my goodness, Will.”

I slowly put her down and watched as she looked everywhere.

“Did you…did you just do all of this?”

“With Libby’s help. She came by earlier today and put out all the candles and cleaned it up a bit since we haven’t been here in so long. She brought down clean sheets and…”

I felt my face grow hot as Lex looked over at the beds.

Then, she glanced back at me and bit down on her lip. “Oh, Will…” she whispered as she threw herself into my arms.

I wasn’t sure what happened, but what I’d thought would be a sweet and tender moment turned into a moment of pure passion and lust.

Lex began taking my T-shirt off, and I did the same to her. We both began fumbling with each other’s pants before we finally gave up and started taking our own clothes off.

When I saw her standing in front of me with nothing but her bra and panties on, I let out a moan. “Jesus…I want you so much.”

She reached behind her back, and in one movement, her bra fell to the ground. My dick jumped.

She slid her panties off and then moved to the bed. Lying down on it, she said, “I want you so much, too, Will, more than you know. I’ve been dreaming of being with you again. It’s been killing me.”

I slowly moved onto the bed and began kissing her as I moved my hand down her stomach.

“Yes,” she whispered.

I pulled my lips from hers. I slid my hand further down as Lex spread her legs open for me.

“Will…I need you so much.”

I slipped two fingers in, and I let out a moan. “Fuck…Lex, you’re so wet.”

I moved my mouth down and began sucking on her nipple as I moved my fingers in and out of her.

“More. Will, I want more.”

As I sucked and pulled on the nipple in my mouth, I reached my free hand up and began playing with her other nipple. I slipped another finger in and then began rubbing her clit with my thumb as she squeezed down on my fingers. She was getting close. With one bite of her nipple and more pressure on her clit, Lex was calling out my name. It took everything out of me to ride out her orgasm.

When Lex finally came down from her orgasm and smiled at me, I got up and reached down to my jeans. I grabbed a condom and ripped it open. I rolled the condom on as Lex watched me. When I crawled back onto the bed, I couldn’t help but notice her eyes sparkling in the candlelight. Placing my hands on the sides of her face, I gently kissed her. I sucked her bottom lip into my mouth, and she let out a long, soft moan.

“You’re so beautiful, Lex. You take my breath away.”

She arched her body up and whispered, “Will, please make love to me.”

Lex spread her legs open more, and I began teasing her entrance with my tip.

“Oh God…I’m so ready, Will. I need you.”

I began pushing in, and my eyes about rolled into the back of my head. She was so wet, so warm. I didn’t move for at least a minute. I moved my lips to her neck and then up to her ear where I gently bit down on her earlobe.

“Will…please move. Do something.”

Smiling, I whispered, “I’m going to make love to you now, Lex.”

“Will…oh God, I can’t believe how amazing it feels.”

Will let out a moan as he began moving faster. I wanted to tell him not to be so gentle, but I wasn’t sure what he would think.

“Lex…baby…nothing feels better than being inside you.”

Oh God. I need him to move faster. I need it harder.

“I…won’t…break…”

He pulled back and looked at me. “What?”

My heart was pounding.
I can do this. I know I can do this.

“I want it faster…harder, Will. Please don’t be so gentle.”

“Ah…Jesus, Lex. I just about came.”

I let out a giggle as he smiled at me and raised his eyebrow.

“Talk to me, Lex. You have to tell me if I hurt you.”

I nodded my head quickly. “I promise, I’ll tell you.”

Then, he began moving faster. He leaned back and grabbed my hips. He bit down on his lip as he pulled my hips and slammed himself into me. I let out a moan, and I knew it wasn’t going to take long before I came.

“Yes! Will, yes! That feels…so good.”

“Lex…baby, come.”

“I’m so close. Faster, Will…I’m so close.”

He began to thrust into me harder, and then something happened. He was hitting a spot that was causing my toes to start tingling.

“Oh God…stay right there. It’s hitting a spot. Will, I’m going to come!” I screamed out.

I began calling out Will’s name over and over as my orgasm raced through my whole body. I could feel my sex pulsing over and over as Will moved in and out.

“Yes. Right there, Lex. Oh God, baby…I’m coming.”

Will began slowing down as he dropped his body over mine and began kissing my neck. He slowly moved to my lips and gently kissed me. “I love you, Lex. I love you so much.”

I squeezed my eyes together to hold back my tears. I’d never felt so loved before in my life. I could practically feel the love pouring from his body to mine.

“I love you, too, Will, more than the air I breathe.”

“Jesus H. Christ. It is hot as hell out here.”

I grinned and peeked over at Grace. She was so much like Aunt Ari that it was unreal.

“I think it is hotter than hell, truth be told,” Taylor said while she attempted to fan herself with a makeshift fan.

I sat up and looked around. The guys were all working on repairing a fence, and Grace had suggested the great idea of tagging along and then heading to the river.

“Why didn’t we just meet them down at the river? This is insane.” Lauren opened a bottle of water and began splashing some water on herself.

I giggled. “Just think how the boys feel. They’re working in this heat, and it’s only ten in the morning.”

Maegan stood up and cursed. “You’re just happy because you’re having hot sex, Alex. I haven’t had any sex in over a month. I need to be fucked.”

“Nice,” Libby said as she looked back over at Will, Luke, Colt, and Jason.

Every one of them still had their shirts on, and Maegan wouldn’t stop bitching about the heat.

Luke had been livid when my father hired Jason to help out around the ranch this summer. Luke had tried telling his daddy and mine that they didn’t need extra help, but Daddy wasn’t going to listen to any of it.

I glanced over at Libby to see if I could figure out who she was staring at—Luke or Jason.
