I shook my head and smiled. “Let’s get to work, Casanova.”
“Hey, I’m only a one-person charmer,” Devin said, defending his honor.
“Fine, let’s get this over with, Prince Charming.”
“Now that’s more like it, beautiful.”
I pulled out the suitcases from my closet and tossed them on the bed while Devin walked around the room, looking at all the little things I had on my shelves.
I began opening drawers and pulling out clothes and haphazardly throwing them into the open suitcases. Next I emptied the clothes in my closet, selecting a few for our trip and placing them in their own pile. My shoes came next, only instead of tossing them around I made sure each one was put away carefully.
“How many pairs of shoes do you have?” Devin finally said.
“Well, not counting sandals and tennis shoes maybe twenty-two, give or take.” His mouth opened and I pointed at him. “They’ll fit. We’re not getting rid of the shoes.”
Devin managed a smile and came up behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist. “I wouldn’t think of it. Your legs always look sexy with your shoes. How could I get rid of any of them? Remind me to get more shoe racks when we get home.”
I smiled and hugged him tightly. “I’m not dreaming, right?”
“Certainly not. It’s real, all of it,” he said, tilting my chin up. “I love you.”
I smiled. “I love you, too. Now help me get my books packed away.”
We spent the next couple hours looking through my shelves and pulling books I would need for school and books I just liked to read off my shelves.
“I knew you loved reading, but you have a ton of books. It’s like your own library.”
“We don’t have to take them all, just my favorites.”
“Are you ready to go?” I asked as I walked back into my closet. “I want to take this too,” I said, bringing out one of the bins that sat in the back of my closet. “When Mom and Dad died, I put everything that reminded me of them into this bin. I think I want to bring it with us and unpack a few things.”
Devin smiled gently and held out his arms for me. I fell into his embrace and just enjoyed the feeling of his arms holding me tightly. I kissed his neck and heard him groan. “What do you do to me?” he asked as he leaned down and began kissing me. I gasped at the sensation and realized how much I missed his hands running over my body and his mouth kissing every inch of me. I moaned as he sucked on the sensitive skin between my neck and shoulder.
“God, I love it when you do that,” I gasped. His hands were traveling down my back and side.
I could feel his smile against my skin. “I know, it pushes you over the edge.”
I pulled away, keeping him at arm’s length. “I’m not falling this time, buddy,” I said somewhat sternly. “Let’s go.”
Devin chuckled. “I never should have said anything. I could have been inside you by now, making you—”
“Stop.” I held my finger up to his lips so he couldn’t say anything further. “Now, go take these suitcases down and I will bring the bin.”
He smiled but followed my instructions and in a few minutes everything was packed up. “You can drive,” I said, handing him the keys. “Only we need to stop at Larissa’s hotel. I need to get the rest of my things and I still need to finish packing for our trip.”
He nodded and climbed into the car. I followed and watched as he settled in the seat.
“Before we go anywhere,” I started to tell Devin. He looked over and I reached out and pulled him toward me, closing the gap between us. I kissed him hard on the mouth then moved to nibble his neck. He groaned and moved his hands to my waist and began to travel under my blouse.
I pulled away and smiled. “You ready to go?”
Devin narrowed his eyes. “You’re a tease. We are not leaving until—”
I stopped him with another kiss. “I know. That’s why I stopped you before you started the car. Now, push the chair back.” I lifted my skirt and maneuvered over to straddle his lap after he pushed the seat back. His hands moved to my blouse, undoing the buttons as mine moved to his shirt. He kissed my neck and I moaned as he found the spot.
My hands moved to run through his hair as my breathing became labored. His hands ran over my bra and pulled out my breasts before moving to suck them. I gasped at the sensation. I had missed this and even more missed our connection.
My hands finally ran over his chest and his movements stilled. As I continued my movements, his mouth left my breast and his head leaned back. I bent down and began to kiss down his chest to his nipple. He gasped as I took it between my teeth. His hands went to my head and I continued the onslaught. My hands moved to his pants and I undid his belt. I pulled out his member and began to caress him. He groaned under my touch.
