"Look." He pointed out to the driveway as a small, blue car came up the long, winding road that lead to the house. "I think your pizza is here."
"Are you staying?"
"Yeah." He reached into his pocket for his wallet. "If you're sure Chase won't mind."
"He won't mind." She saw no reason for Chase to care if she had a friend over for pizza. "Let me run in and grab my money."
"I got it."
"No, I invited you." She hopped up from the swing. "I got it."
"I showed up unannounced. You can get it next time." He took the pizza from the delivery man and paid him before she could protest any further. "Are we eating inside?"
"Yes." She opened the door. "Come on in."

Chase's flight was delayed three hours due to bad weather. This had been the longest two days of his life. All he wanted to do was get back home to Tessa. How she'd managed to steal every waking thought, he had no idea. He'd never been so taken with a woman. Audra had fallen asleep on the car ride from the airport, so he took the quiet opportunity to answer emails and handle any office fires. He didn't want to work when he got home tonight. There was only one thing he had on his mind and he hoped his little vixen was ready to play.
He dropped his bags in the foyer. The house was quiet. It was just after seven and Tessa's last class had ended at two. She'd visited with her father for a short time this afternoon because he had an early physical therapy appointment and wouldn't be in his room most of the time. As he placed his keys and wallet on the foyer table he heard her coming down the main staircase.
"You're home."
He turned to find her standing on the bottom step. Her hair was pulled into a high pony tail and she wore one of his dress shirts and nothing else. The smell of vanilla swirled between them. He'd gotten used to her scent and liked the way it filled the upstairs hall every time she took a steamy bath.
"Nice shirt." He removed his jacket and put it on the formal chair that sat across from the front door.
"I took a bath and I wanted to feel close to you so I borrowed it." She came down the last step.
He took in her bare legs and freshly polished purple toenails. His cock hardened when he thought about how she'd run her toes up and down his calves when he had held her after sex.
"I hope you don't mind."
"Not at all." He curled his finger, summoning her. "Come here."
She did as he requested without hesitation. Her eagerness excited him.
"Did you miss me?" He tickled her lips with his, teasing her.
"Very much." She loosened his tie. "I've been waiting for you all afternoon."
"Have you?" He pulled her against him, tilted her head slightly and again ran his lips across her mouth. She drew a quick, unsteady breath and he knew he had her. "I've thought about you all day."
"All good, I hope." She closed her eyes when he ran his hand down her throat and over her breasts. Her nipples stiffened under his touch.
"Good?" He moved his hand to her stomach and around to her hip. "Where would the fun be in good thoughts?" He gripped her thigh. "Most of my thoughts were wicked and inappropriate. You played the starring role in all of them."
"I'll perform for you anytime you want." She kissed a path from his jaw to his neck. "You must have had a hard day today." Her hand brushed across the front of his pants as she reached for his belt buckle. "I could help you relieve some of that tension."
"I'm sure you can." He trailed his fingers back around the front of her leg and upwards until he reached her bare pussy. "Did you forget something?"
"I wanted to greet you in the foyer." She unbuttoned his pants and lowered the zipper. "I heard you come in and didn't have time to finish getting dressed. I could fix that if you want … "
"Panties are a waste of time." He guided her to the wall, pressing her back against it. "They get in the way especially when I want to do this." He slipped his fingers inside her heat, spreading her arousal over her clit. "Where's May?" he asked before attacking her lips, delving his tongue inside her mouth to taste her. She placed her palm against his chest, breaking the kiss so she could answer him.
"She left an hour ago. I told her we wouldn't need dinner." She tugged his pants down his hips and let them fall to the floor. "I figured we could fend for ourselves."
"That's my resourceful girl." As he fingered her, she thrust her hips into his hand. "I could feast on you for hours."
"Should we go upstairs?" She stroked his erection through his boxers. "Or I could get on my knees right here and take care of that problem."
"We're not going upstairs," he said as he pushed his boxers down to join his pants at his calves. "You're not getting on your knees either."
"I'm not?"
"Nope." He lifted her up and pressed her against the wall. "I'm going to show you what walls are for and just how inappropriate my thoughts were." He reached between them and guided his cock inside her hot, wet core. They let out a simultaneous moan when he worked himself all the way inside her. Once his full length was deep inside her, he slipped both of his hands under her ass and rocked into her.
"Chase, can you … am I too..." She gripped his shoulders when he drove into her, ending any concerns she may have had.
"Just wrap your legs around me and hold on, sweetheart. I got this."
He moved hard, in and out, over and over, building the delicious sensation. Her insides tightened around him, reminding him he needed to slow down and please her too. When he was with her, it was hard to maintain the control he bragged to her about having. She kept him on his toes. Every time he entered her, he was ready to explode. The thrill of just being inside her, the anticipation of making her come and the things she brought out in him shoved his desire into overdrive.
"See what you do to me?" He kept a steady rhythm inside her. "You make me lose all control. I'm not even in the door five minutes and I'm fucking you against the wall."
"I'm not complaining." She dug her fingers into his shoulders. "No one has ever wanted me like this. No one has ever needed me. I see it in your eyes, hear it in your voice."
"It's more than physical, Tessa. You know that, right?"
She nodded.
"Look at me." He stilled his movements. "I do want you like this but there's so much more I want from you."
"Take it, Chase." She squeezed her eyes shut and shuddered against him. "I'm all yours."
He swiveled his hips as she climaxed, helping her tumble over the edge before he gave in and lost himself within her. The racket of his heart beating echoed between his ears, but when he opened his eyes there was only the sound of their labored breath. The October sun had set during their encounter, leaving the foyer in twilight. He slowly slid her down his body, holding her by her waist as she regained her balance.
She looked up at him with those remarkable blue eyes and that shy smile she only displayed after they'd done something dirty.
"Don't you be embarrassed." He kissed her. "I know you liked it."
"I always like it."
"Come upstairs with me so I can get out of this suit."
"Looks like you're halfway there already." She teased as she glanced down at his disheveled dress pants pooled around his feet.
"Funny." He pulled up his boxers and pants, holding them in place with one hand as he took her hand and led her up the stairs to the bedroom. "I'm going to take a quick shower. You're not joining me or I might never make it back out."
"Are you sure?" She followed him into the bathroom and turned on the water for him. "You know I don't listen very well when it comes to staying out of the shower."
"Hmm." He grabbed a clean washcloth from the counter and ran it under the warm water of the faucet. "It would be rude of me not to help you."
"You don't have to- oh..."
He interrupted her protest when he ran the washcloth between her thighs. "Feel good?" He kissed her neck as he wiped away any evidence of their foyer escapades.
"Everything you do feels good." She took the washcloth from him. "I can get it from here."
"If you're sure." He stepped back. "I don't mind helping. Or watching."
