Overlooked(112)
"And I agree with them," Knox says.
It takes a second for the words to sink in, but when they do, my head flies to look him in the eye for the first time since he woke me.
"You do?" I say, in disbelief.
"I do. And I've been thinking. You and Piper, you get along so well. And God knows I'm going to need help with a teenage daughter. She deserves you. At least a chance with you. If you were serious about what you said."
"I am, absolutely. She's so amazing." I laugh through my emotions, "I never thought I'd want to hang around with a thirteen year old so much."
"She feels the same way about you."
"And you?"
"Even if I don't deserve you, I want you. I can't go on denying the way I feel about you. You make me feel things I've never felt in my entire fucking life. And I thought I'd have to ignore them, for Piper's sake. But if you really feel the way about both of us that you said in the video, then I can't let go of you. Because you're right, when you know you're meant to be with someone, you know."
Tears stream down my cheeks as he speaks. It all seems like a dream, and part of me wonders if I'm asleep on the couch.
"Of course you deserve me. I understand why you thought you let Piper down. I let her down, too. I should've asked her more questions when she brought up her mother, and it breaks my heart that I let her down so much."
"She isn't your responsibility."
"It's nothing to do with whose responsibility she is. I let someone I care about down."
"That's what I did. With you, I let you down."
"What you did is confirm everything I thought about you."
"That I'm an asshole?" Knox says, his nose twitching.
"No, that you're the most caring man I've ever met. I just want you to see that you can care for Piper and me."
"I know that now, after Nathan. After all the comments on your video. And most of all, because you and Piper get along so well. I can't keep you from her. Which is good, because it's been tearing me up inside. I've never felt this way about anyone."
As he finishes his last word, he cups my head and presses his lips against mine. I fling my arms around him, holding him as tight as I can as our kiss deepens.
All of the tension of the last few days melts away as I melt into his arms. All thoughts of Nathan vanish in his strong arms. Above all, my body overflows with everything I feel for Knox.
He drags his lips away, and with a low voice says, "There's just one thing."
"What?" I ask, gasping and desperate for his lips back.
"You're going to have to learn to come in silence."
His words force a moan from my throat. Knox puts his hand over my mouth, and says, "That's what I'm talking about. Can you be quiet?"
"I thought you liked my voice," I tease, wiping the tear stains from my cheeks.
"I do. But I also like your pussy. And right now I can't have both."
"You move fast, right back to my pussy. Is that what this is really all about, I'm here, you're here, we might as well get together," I say, teasing, my cheek pressed against his.
Knox scoops me onto his lap, and growls, "You want to wait? I can wait."
I suppress a squeal, and say, "No waiting. I spent too much time watching you out my window today."
"I didn't hear you, I'm glad you can be quiet," he says, and closes his mouth over mine before I can set him straight.
Our kiss is needy, hungry but at the same time deeper. Like we both know it's serious this time, and that we're not just enjoying each other but committed to each other as well. Along with Piper.
I'm officially part of this family now, and I've never felt like anything has ever been so right.
The thought fills me with heat, and I whimper, and press myself against him. His hard dick digs into my leg, causing my already slick walls to contract with longing for him to be inside me.
Knox kisses across to my ear, and says, "Come to bed."
Knox
Taking Avery's hand, I pull her up the stairs and into my bedroom. After pulling her top off over her head, I slide my hands around her ribs and undo her bra.
I can't wait any longer. Pushing down the way I really felt for her was crushing me, but now that I've released all those feelings, I'm overcome with need to claim her body as mine, the way she's claimed my heart as hers.
She lets her bra fall to the floor, and I can't help but smile at her perfect tits - my perfect tits. My dick swells.
While she takes off the rest of her clothes, I pull mine off. Once we're both naked, I pull her against me and close my eyes at the skin-on-skin contact. I push my fingers through her hair and bring her lips to mine.
Our kiss becomes frantic, my cock now rock hard with anticipation.
Avery wiggles out of my hold and drops to her knees. I struggle to suppress a groan, knowing we have to be quiet. But fuck me, this is too good.
She licks up and around my shaft, and I'm unable to take my eyes off her. Squinting in the dim light, I can make out her full lips as they take me into her mouth.
Bobbing her head, my shaft runs back and forth over her prodding tongue. I have to grab her head to compensate for the intensity. When I think things can't get better, Avery angles her head up and the next thing I know, my cock is halfway down her throat.
I can't stop my hips from thrusting, and shivers pulse through my body. This is fucking crazy. My balls tighten, and I grip her head and try to pull her off me, but she clamps her hands onto my legs and sucks harder, holding me in her.
As much as I love this, and I really fucking love this, it's not what I want tonight. I bend and hook my arms under hers, pulling her off me and onto the bed. I want to take my time with her.
My hand finds her mound, and I push my fingers through her folds and into her entrance. Her pussy is dripping fucking wet, and my fingers glide easily against her, pushing on the spot I know drives her wild.
Avery's breathing gets heavier by the second, and she moans. I yank my hand away and lightly slap the side of her hip and rest my hand over her mound.
I lean over her and whisper, "Quiet."
She opens her mouth to respond, but I shush her.
Lying alongside her, I take her clit between my fingers and roll them around it.
In a low voice, I say, "You have to be quiet."
Her breath is fast and ragged, and she rocks her hips as my fingers move. I let go of her clit, and push two fingers into her dripping wet pussy. I want to taste her so fucking bad, but don't trust her to be quiet.
I pump my fingers in her until her legs are bending and flopping around and she's gasping for air. My cock strains against her side, and I can't hold off any longer.
After taking my fingers away, I move on top of her and push my cock straight in her.
Avery lets out a quiet moan as I move deeper into her. I shush her again, and she bites her lip.
As my hips move, my mind races with all the things we've said and done. With the idea of having Avery at my side as Piper grows. And of having her here with me when Piper's grown up and moves out.
Most of all, it screams at me for almost pushing her away. With almost losing the most amazing woman ever, just because I was too fucking stupid to see what was in front of me.
Heat races through my veins, and the growing tingles in my cock block out my ability to think. I thrust harder and faster.
With my lips to Avery's ear, I say, "Come for me, baby. Come for the man who loves you."
She gasps and convulses underneath me, but she's quiet. Which means I'll have her in my bed every fucking night this summer. Even if Piper is home.
My hips move faster and faster, and my balls draw tight against me. Finally I can deny myself no longer, and my dick erupts, sending enormous shudders up and down my back.
Out of breath, I lean down and brush my lips against hers, the full lips that first made me want her.
"I love you too," Avery says.
They're words I never thought anyone other than Piper would ever say to me. Words I never thought I'd ever want nor need anyone other than Piper to say to me. But in reality, they're three words that fill me, calm me, and make me know my life can be more than what it was.
After a quick kiss, I pull out and lie on my side, rolling her onto her side and pulling against me, not caring about the cum leaking from her. All I care about is having her in my arms, always.
The sound of Avery's breath lulls me to sleep.
In the morning, I wake up and feel the most refreshed I've ever felt in the morning. Avery is still lying tight against me, exactly where she should be.
A door bangs shut, and a moment later Piper thumps down the stairs. I should talk to her.
Avery is still asleep as I slip out of bed and pull on boxers, shorts and a t-shirt. I make my way to the kitchen, where Piper is eating a bowl of cereal.
"Have a good sleep?" I ask.
"Same as always."
Without even making a coffee, I sit at the table.
"Can I talk to you about Avery?"
Piper shrugs, and says, "Sure."
"What do you think about me dating her?"
"It's great. She's so awesome, and it's so nice to have her around to talk to."
"So it doesn't bother you?"
"Why would it? It's about time you had a girlfriend, I never understood why you didn't date."
"I was busy with you."
"So what? Lots of my friends have divorced parents, and they all date. I was worried no one liked you."
"Hardly," I laugh, "I was the one who didn't like any of them."
"Until Avery moved here."
