“You’re so wet,” he said as he ran his fingers along my core.

I moaned when he pushed one of them inside me. He thrust it in and out a few times before pulling back out. He flicked my clit with his fingers, and I nearly came up off the bed. Every nerve in my body was on fire.

“I want you so bad,” he said in a strained voice as he watched me raise my hips with each flick of his finger.

“Then, do something about it.”

“Roll onto your stomach.”

I did as he’d said. He stood and positioned me so that he was against my entrance.

“Fuck, Emma. I don’t have protection.”

“I’m on the pill, and I’m clean, I swear.”

“I trust you, and I haven’t been with anyone since you.”

He pushed in, so just his tip was inside me. He reached around and ran his fingers across my clit. I was going to explode if he didn’t stop torturing me.

“Jesse, stop teasing.”

“You’re tight. I don’t want to hurt you.”

“You’re killing me right now.”

He pushed farther in, making me moan. He pulled almost all the way out, and then he thrust in again, going farther this time.

“Fuck, you feel good,” he moaned.

He continued his slow thrusts until he finally pushed all the way in. I moaned in pleasure. He pulled back out and thrust in again. He kept his leisurely pace for a minute before finally speeding up.

“You can go faster. You’re not going to hurt me.”

He said nothing as he started moving in and out faster. He grabbed my hips and pulled me back each time he thrust in so that he could go deeper. I buried my face in my pillow to muffle my moans.

“I want to hear you,” he said as he slammed into me.

I shook my head. Someone in one of the rooms around us might hear us.

“Emma, let me hear you. If you don’t move that pillow, I’m going to fuck you so hard that nothing will hide your screams.”

When I didn’t move, he laughed.

“I was hoping you’d make me work for it.”

He pulled all the way out and then slammed back into me. I cried out, unable to stop myself. He continued his hard and fast thrusts until I was screaming his name. I was past the point of caring whether or not anyone could hear me. I shattered to pieces under him as I came. He continued to thrust until he found his own release. He shouted out my name as I felt his seed filling me.

When he was finished, he pulled out and rolled me over. I reached up and grabbed him to yank him down on top of me, and his sweat-covered skin slid across mine.

“I love you, Jesse. I always have.”

“I love you, too. I’ve missed you so much. I’ve missed this so much.” He kissed my forehead, and then he rolled to his side and pulled me tight against him. I smiled as he wrapped his arms around me.

This was exactly where I was supposed to be—in his arms.

Chapter Fifteen: Jesse

I held Emma’s hand as she drove us to Andy’s. Now that I had her back, there was no way that I was going to let go of her, not even for a second. We pulled up to Andy’s building and stepped out of the car. I walked around the front and grabbed her as soon as she closed her door. My lips crushed against hers as I pulled her against me. I never wanted to stop tasting her.

“Jesse, stop it! We’re in a very public parking lot. Someone might see.”

“Let them watch. Maybe they’ll learn something.”

She rolled her eyes as she linked her fingers with mine, and we started walking toward Andy’s building.

“I’m sure they would,” she said.

Once we were inside, she turned to take the steps.

I tugged on her hand, stopping her. “Let’s take the elevator.”

“Okay…”

I ignored her questioning look as I walked to the elevator and pushed the button. The doors slid open instantly, and I pulled her inside. As soon as they closed, I pushed her up against the wall. My hands worked to push her shirt up.

“What are you doing?” she cried.

I ignored her as I pulled the cups of her bra down. As soon as her breasts were free, I leaned down and sucked one of her nipples into my mouth. She grabbed my shoulders to hold herself up.

“Oh god, Jesse.”

I ran my tongue across her nipple. I wanted her here and now, but I knew that wasn’t possible. I was going to take her home as soon as we left Andy’s apartment. She wouldn’t have to worry about being quiet since no one would be around to hear her as I made her scream out my name.

“I want to take you right here, but I can’t. Soon though, I promise.” I helped her fix her bra and pull her shirt back down.

I hated the jeans she was wearing as I reached between her legs and stroked her through the material. Her lips parted as her head fell back against the wall.

“Soon.”

The elevator door sprang open, causing us to jump apart. I cursed as I realized that I’d forgotten to push the button to take us up to Andy’s floor.

“Okay, gross. I don’t even want to know what you two were doing five seconds ago,” Andy grumbled as he stepped onto the elevator. “I see you two worked everything out at least.”

“I worked her pretty good,” I said as I grinned at Andy. I knew I was being a jackass, but I couldn’t help it. I realized that there was nothing between the two of them, but I wanted to make it crystal clear to Andy that Emma was mine.

“Jesse! Shut up!” Emma said as she blushed.

“It’s fine. I knew you two would act like bunnies once you kissed and made up.” Andy grinned at her.

When she turned away from us to push the button, he shot me a dirty look, letting me know that I wasn’t fooling anyone with my caveman act. I ignored it as I pulled her back against me. I was marking my territory.

“You’re both idiots,” Emma grumbled as the elevator rose to the second floor.

When the doors opened, we followed Andy down the hall to his apartment. He unlocked his door and threw his keys on the table.

“By the way, if you start acting like bunnies on my couch, I’ll kick you both out.”

“Oh, shut up,” Emma said.

I walked over to the couch and sat down as Andy headed into the kitchen. Emma started to sit down next to me, but I grabbed her and pulled her onto my lap. I wanted her as close to me as possible.

Andy returned a few seconds later with a beer in his hand, and I raised an eyebrow.

“What? If you want a beer, you can go and get it yourself. I’m not your maid.” He sat down on the opposite side of the couch.

“I’m your guest. You have to wait on me hand and foot.”

“Try again, asshole.”

I smiled. It was like the past two years had never happened. Andy and I were back to the way we’d always been.

“Did you find Ally?” Emma cut in.

Andy shook his head. “No, and believe me, I searched everywhere. One of the girls at her work said Ally had come in early this morning and quit. I think she’s gone.”

“Good riddance,” I muttered.

“I feel like an ass for saying this, but I agree. Ally has changed and not for the better. I just hope that she’s smart enough to leave the two of you alone,” Andy said sadly.

“I think she will. She must realize by now that we all know what she did. I don’t think she’ll show her face around any of us again. I know this has to be hard for you, Andy. She’s still your sister, and despite everything that she’s done, I know you still love her,” Emma said.

“I’ll be fine. I’m more ashamed of what she did than anything. If this is the person she’s become, then she’s not my sister anymore.”

We were all quiet as Andy sipped his beer. None of us really knew what to say at this point. The things that Ally had done were unreal.

“Andy, I really do think that she made me sick that night,” Emma said quietly.

He sighed. “I think you’re probably right. I didn’t think she’d do something like that before, but now, I have no idea what she’s capable of.”

Emma scooted off my lap and over to Andy. My hands balled into fists as she reached over to hug him. I knew they were friends now, but I wasn’t used to seeing them together like this, and it bothered me. I wasn’t sure if I’d ever be okay with the two of them alone together after what had happened between them.

“I’m sorry, Andy. I started all of this,” Emma said as she pulled away.

He shook his head. “Nah, this is all on Ally. She’s the one who fucked up.”

“Agreed,” I said as I pulled Emma back over to me.

“I hate to cut this short, but I need to get ready for work. Sam texted me and said one of the guys called in sick, so I have to cover his shift.”

“Whoa, wait a minute. You work with Sam?” I asked.

Emma tensed beside me. “Jesse, don’t.”

Andy looked between the two of us. “I do. He’s my boss’s irresponsible younger brother. Why? Do you know him?”

“He lives a few houses down from me. I caught him trying to maul Emma at one of his parties.”

I could practically see the smoke coming out of Andy’s ears.

“He did, what? Emma, why didn’t you tell me?”

“I didn’t want to make things awkward for you at work. It was my own fault anyway.”

“I’m going to strangle the asshole,” Andy said.

“No, you’re not. You’re going to pretend like you don’t know. He’s your boss’s brother. If you fight him, you’ll get fired.”

“Is there anyone in this world who isn’t an asshole?” Andy seethed.

I raised my hand. “Me.”

“No, you’re definitely an asshole.”

“Please don’t say anything, Andy. Please,” Emma begged.

He rolled his eyes. “Fine, I won’t. But if he so much as mentions you, I’ll knock his head off.”
