The Champ:Bad Boys Book 5(11)
"No, but if you're not out in five … never mind." He moved around to the other side and climbed into bed with me. My heart all but gave out, and when he drew me into his arms covers and all, I thought I was gonna go into cardiac arrest. "What … "
"Shh, I just want to hold you." And that's just what he did, with my head on his chest and his arms wrapped comfortingly around me, he just held me like we'd done this a hundred times before. I calmed down enough to feel the racing of his heart, and inhaled his manly scent.
I decided to relax and take it all in, since this was the first time I'd ever done this, another milestone crossed with Wyatt. I wonder how many other firsts we were gonna share together before it was all said and done?
The thought gave me pause. What if I'm too green for him? From the looks of the women he'd had on his arm in those pics he was accustomed to more sophisticated worldly types, two things I am not. Instead of letting it worry me though, I let myself enjoy the feeling of being held so gently by the most gorgeous man I'd ever met.
Wyatt
She's as fidgety as a virgin at a frat party but when she finally settled her little butt down she felt like paradise in my arms. I don't think I'd ever done this before, just held a woman in bed for no other reason than to be close. But because it was her-because she was mine, it felt right.
I'd woken up not long ago and she was my first thought. That took a lot of doing because for the last ten years or so training had always filled that spot. In the space of one night, she'd already changed something monumental in my life and instead of fighting it I embraced the newness.
I gave myself five minutes of total bliss, just inhaling her scent, enjoying the feel of her resting so comfortably against me. How many mornings like this did we have to look forward to? I couldn't wait to find out.
I kissed her hair and patted her ass before rolling out from under her. "Let's go Red ma's breakfast waits for no one." She grumped her way out of bed with the sheets held tightly around her. "Fine give me ten minutes." I knew that was a lie, if she got herself together in less than an hour I'll marry her fine ass on the spot.
"Take your time but hurry up." I got up when my dick started leaking at the sight of her ass in that thing, and headed for the door while she headed to the shower. "Behave boy didn't I teach you any manners? This one is going to put us through our paces you just stay in the gate for now. I promise you'll be rewarded in the end." Great, now I'm having conversations with my dick.
Her girls rushed by me as soon as I cleared the bedroom door. I forgot how a gaggle of females loved to giggle when they got together; it had been a long time since I'd had to endure my little sister and her friends. I guess that shit never changes no matter how old they get.
True to her word she was out in fifteen and it was time to go. I'd called ma and given her a head count, which more than pleased her. She's one of those throwbacks, that's never happy unless she's feeding people and have a full house to fuss over.
"You look amazing baby you ready?" She looked like a cute little china doll in black slacks and a soft white sweater that hugged her tits perfectly.
"No, but somehow I don't think you're gonna give me much of a choice." She didn't look half as annoyed as she was pretending to be.
"How pissed will you be when I kiss that gook off your lips?" I grinned at her before taking her lips before she could answer. "Oh yeah, just as I remember." My hand was on her ass as usual while I sucked on her tongue, and it was only when my cock started sticking her in her middle that I pulled back. Poor thing she was a whole lot flustered when I finally set her back on her feet. "Let's go."
We held hands to the truck, in the truck and on the ride to my family home. I've had my share of fucks, but I would trade every last one of them for more of this. I noticed for the first time as my crazy ass brother sped through the streets, that she had a calming effect on me. My mind was clear of everything but the feel of her hand in mine, and her soft weight resting against my side.
I was ready for her reaction when we went through the gates; that quick jolt some people get when they come here for the first time. "It's a house babe stay calm."
"You live here?" She looked around at the estate as we drove up to the house. "Yep, problem?" She gave me that ‘don't be a man' look that females get but I didn't see the problem. The shit was bigger than most but it was still mortar and stone.
My family is a little peculiar in that no one ever really leaves the nest. My grandparents still live on the grounds, and so do my brother and I. My sister is away at college but home for the holidays and she too won't be gone until she gets hitched. And knowing Marie, she was already working on ways to keep Lisa and whatever guy she marries right here as well.
She was still looking a bit shell-shocked so I sought to put her at ease. "I'll explain it all to you later but let's get through the Spanish inquisition first and get some food in us and we'll take it from there."
"Spanish inquisition, what does that mean?" She was nervous as hell so I squeezed her hand and kissed her hair. That seemed to settle her a bit.
"Don't freak but ma is probably going to grill you like a seasoned detective before noon." She was back to biting into her lip and squirming around on the seat.
"I'm not sure about all this, don't this seem a bit strange to you? I mean you just met me in a bar, had to fight off not one but two idiots and now you're taking me home to meet your family?"
"Sounds about right to me. Something you should know about me babe, when I see something I want I go after it hard, no sense in beating around the bush."
"How often do you do this anyway? I don't want your mom to think I'm just another one of your conquests." She's cute when her feathers get all ruffled as they were now.
"Well, you would be the first since the tenth grade and that time I only brought the girl home because ma threatened to embarrass me if I didn't."
"So you've never … "
"Nope, never met anyone who deserved the honor, not before last night when I walked into that bar and saw the girl I'm gonna marry." And there you have it.
"You know you shouldn't play around with stuff like that, some women might think you're serious. Lucky for you I'm not one of them." Hah, I'll let her go on believing that shit for as long as it makes her comfortable. She'd get it when she's walking down the aisle to me in the not too distant future. Maybe I can keep her on her toes until then, she seems like the type to fight me all the way to the end.
"We're here." I'd been keeping her distracted on the way up the long ass drive because if she'd freaked at the grounds the house up close and personal would send her into shock. "Oh no uh-uh, we can't … " I had to pull her hand away from the door to stop her from making a run for it.
Her girls were already piling out of the other car and I noticed that no one thought they needed to stay back with her today. They seemed more- sure of my sincerity, which was good because I was depending on them to work on her, make my life easier. If that failed I was gonna have to pull the Hunter on her and that shit would scare the fuck outta her.
I had to all but wrestle her out the truck as she glared at me. "It'll be fine I promise. Have I ever lied to you?"
"I don't know, we just met remember." Sassy, I like it.
I felt way more comfortable now that I had her on my turf. I had no doubt that ma would work her charm and gain me some points but I had to get this one to calm down first.
"Babe, look at me." I waited until the others had filed into the house with my brother. Jace and Cole had gone to their respective homes to clean up, they too were caught in Marie's web every holiday since their families had long since moved away, and would be back.
"I know this seems like a lot at once and like you keep reminding me, we just met. But I want you to push aside the fact that we only just met and think only of what you feel." She'd better be feeling what I was or she was fucked, because I had no intention of letting go.
