“Uh-huh.”

My fingers slip inside her. She moans as she clenches around them. She is so hot and wet and tight. She reaches behind herself to grab on to my hair and whimpers while I fuck her with my fingers. I bite down on the fleshy part of her shoulder—not hard, but I can tell she likes it.

“Oh shit,” she sighs.

She starts to undulate and moan. I have to let go of her glorious tit so I can cover her mouth because I can tell she isn’t going to be quiet at all.

I rub hard and fast against her clit to make her buck and swear and scream my name into the palm of my hand, and I don’t stop until she’s clenched up one final time, I don’t pull my hand out of her panties until the aftershocks have subsided and she’s collapsed against my chest. My breaths match hers. She turns to face me, runs her fingers through her hair, runs her fingers through my hair, kisses me tenderly.

“I’m…I’m gonna stay.” Her voice is trembling. “Should I stay?”

Fuck, she seems so young and innocent all of a sudden.

I rest my forehead against hers, catching my breath, before letting go of her. “No. You should go. Nico’s expecting you. Your friends are waiting. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have done that.”

She snorts and rolls her eyes, which shouldn’t be sexy at all, but it totally is. “Really?Which part?”

I pick up her jacket and purse for her while she zips and straightens herself up.

“I have to change. I can’t go like this.”

Five minutes later, she’s changed her clothes, and she’s backing out of the garage. I refrain from reminding her to drive safe and not drink too much. I wait until she’s out of sight before shutting the garage door.

Well. That wasn’t too shabby for a Friday night in the Palisades.

After checking on the kids,to make sure they’re still fast asleep, and taking care of myself in a very quick shower, I send Willa a text:I lied. I’m not sorry. But I shouldn’t have done that.

A minute later, I get a reply.

WILLA: I’m not sorry either. But I’m very glad you did that. I just wish you would have let me get you off too.

I nearly swallow my tongue.

ME: Great, but it’s illegal to text while driving here and also very dangerous.

Willa: Calm down. I pulled over.

ME: Good girl.

WILLA: I’m really not.

ME: Yeah, I’m starting to get the hint.

WILLA: Well, I have to hit the road again. I don’t want to miss Nico’s set. Thanks for beingso responsible for my well-being. I’ll be sure to tell my brother you’re taking such good care of me.

ME: Not funny.

WILLA: Kinda funny.

ME: Let me know when you get there.

WILLA: Yes sir.

I amin so much trouble.

Just as I had suspected, Willa Todd smells fucking delicious inside and out, and I know that I won’t sleep again until I’ve tasted every inch of her too.
