He grabbed the base of his cock and guided it inside me.
My body tensed all over at the delicious pleasure coursing through my body.
With one hard thrust he was all the way inside me. We both gasped and then I swore he said, “It’s better than I fucking imagined.”
“What did you say?” I wanted to hear him repeat them so that I’d know I wasn’t crazy.
“Nothing.” His teeth gnashed together and a vein pulsed in his forehead.
His hands tightened around my thighs.
“Uh…Ezra?”
“Yes?” He ground out between his teeth, his head ducked so that his dark curly hair concealed his eyes.
“This is the part where you should be moving your hips. Just saying.”
He let out a breathless chuckle and raised his head to look at me. “Sadie, if I move I’ll blow my load like a fourteen year old kid. Bear with me for a minute.”
“Well, we can’t have that.” I took a deep breath and let my body relax.
He shuddered and slowly pulled back before sinking back inside me.
My eyes closed and a long moan left my parted lips. My hands landed on his shoulders and when I opened my eyes he was staring at me with a look of awe, his mouth slightly parted.
“Kiss me,” I pleaded. Not only was I desperate for the feel of his lips on mine and his stubble rubbing my face, but I needed him to stop looking at me like that, because that look…it showed me more than he was willing to give and I refused to get my hopes up.
He brushed his lips against mine in the lightest, most fleeting of kisses and I groaned out loud. My fingers fisted around his silky hair, holding him to me as I arched my neck to kiss him more fully. A growl vibrated in his chest and his teeth nipped my bottom lip. His hands roamed over my hips, down my sides, before he palmed my breasts. I moaned when he rubbed his thumbs over my nipples.
“Fuck,” he growled, his lips sucking against my neck. “This is everything.”
My hips lifted to meet his and I saw stars behind my eyes.
I’d never known sex could be like this, and if I had I think maybe I wouldn’t have given up my virginity at such a young age. He was right when he said this was everything.
His hands left my breasts and he grabbed my hips, lifting them off the bed. He hit something deeper inside me and I let out a small cry.
He paused, his face tightening with the effort it took to hold back. “Are you okay?” Sweat clung to his skin and the pupils of his eyes were dilated.
“Yes,” I panted, “don’t stop. Please, for the love of God don’t stop.”
With a deep exhale he let himself go and we both became lost in the feeling of each other.
He was wild and unrestrained as he fucked me. It was a beautiful sight to see and to know that I made him come undone like that.
I felt myself building to another orgasm and I gasped when it hit, my back arching. Ezra watched me with a look of awe and delight. A moment later he reached his own peak. He growled lowly, a curse passing between his lips, and his fingers dug harshly into my thighs. I wouldn’t be surprised if it bruised.
He collapsed against me, his head buried in the crook of my neck. Our bodies stuck together from our perspiration and he was careful to brace his weight on his arms so he didn’t crush me.
After a long moment he sat up slightly and kissed me deeply.
He took my chin between his fingers and forced me to look at him. My chest rose and fell harshly with each gasping breath I took.
His tongue flicked out over his lips and he breathed, “I think this is the best idea you’ve ever had.”
I smiled and said, “Yeah.”
Even though I already knew this was the worst idea I’d ever had, because I was dangerously close to falling in love with my best friend and I’d only end up with my heart broken.
I SAT ON the dock, dangling my bare feet out over the water. The sun warmed my exposed skin and I reached up to adjust my sunglasses.
“You’re unusually quiet today.” Emma commented from beside me.
I guessed I was. I kept replaying what had happened yesterday with Ezra, then again in the shower, and then yet again this morning. We were both insatiable.
I shrugged. “I have a lot on my mind.”
“Want to share?” She asked, adding another layer of sunscreen to her nose, momentarily hiding her freckles beneath the white lotion like substance.
“Not really.”
“Everything’s okay, though, right?” Her voice was full of concern.
“Yeah, of course.” I forced a smile.
“You know…” She started and then trailed off like she wasn’t sure she should continue.
“Come on, spit it out.” I bumped her shoulder with mine.
She winced—not in pain, but at whatever she had to say. “It’s just that…I thought after you broke up with Braden you’d return to the normal, bubbly Sadie you used to be, but you’re still…”
“I’m still what?” I didn’t snap at her, even though a part of me wanted to.
“Withdrawn.” She settled on.
I guessed that was an accurate description of what I’d gradually become over the last two years.
“I’m working on it,” I mumbled, adjusting the straps of my bikini top.
“Is there anything I can do?” She asked, her toes skimming the surface of the lake.
“Nah,” I shrugged, “I have to find my way back to myself on my own.”
“Hey, Em!”
We both turned to look behind us, and saw Maddox barreling straight for us.
“What is he doing?” She mumbled.
He wasn’t slowing down and reached us in a matter of seconds. Somehow, without stopping, he grabbed Emma around her torso and jumped into the water with her in his arms. Water splashed everywhere, and I ended up drenched.
They surfaced a few feet in front of me and Emma smacked her fists against his muscular chest. “You asshole! That was mean!”
“Aw,” he reached for her, pulling her body against his and she immediately melted into his embrace, “you know I love you.”
“I think you just like dragging me into bodies of water,” she mumbled, but she was smiling. She kissed him quickly and swam away.
“What are they up to?”
I jumped at the sound of Ezra’s voice. I tilted my head back and—oh Lord. I swallowed thickly at the sight of him in a pair of white low hanging swim trunks and a blue baseball cap sitting backwards on his head. Pieces of his black curls curled around the edges of the baseball cap, refusing to be tamed.
“Oh, you know, the usual, being the sickeningly cute couple that they are.” I hoped he didn’t notice the pitch in my voice but based on the quirk of his lips he definitely saw how I was eyeing him. I felt like I was dehydrated and stranded in the middle of the desert, while Ezra was the cool glass of water just out of my reach.
While we might be having sex now, our friends didn’t know that and they had to remain blind to our deal. They wouldn’t understand.
Unfortunately, that meant around them we had to keep our hands to ourselves.
When Ezra said Maddox and Emma were coming over I hadn’t expected that to be a problem, but even though they hadn’t even been here an hour I was ready for them to leave so I could have him all to myself.
“Oh, here.” Ezra mumbled and handed me a bottle of beer. I hadn’t even noticed he was holding two, one for me and one for himself, since I was too busy checking him out. “You only get one, though.” He joked.
“Ha, ha, ha.” I rolled my eyes. “I’m an awesome drunk and you know it.”
He sat down beside me and brought the beer to his lips. “You’re definitely entertaining, that’s for sure.”
“Darling!” Maddox called in a joking voice to Ezra. “Are you going to sit there all day or join us?”
“I’m fine right here.” Ezra chuckled. “Darling.”
