“Over my dead body.” He was still muttering but there was something else in it and I burst out laughing.
“Actually, I wasn’t being funny,” he told me as he walked me slowly around the hood to the passenger’s seat.
“I know you weren’t but you still were.” I looked up at him and finished softly, “And, seriously, babe, being funny and all hot guy, protective Dad, I want to kiss you right now.”
I watched his face shift to a look that was sexy as all hell even as he murmured, “Don’t give your nephew any ideas.”
“I think the ideas would be Clarisse’s.”
“That earned payback.”
“Bring it on, gorgeous.”
Mike grinned at me then opened my door.
I climbed in and he didn’t close it until I was settled.
I twisted in my seat to look in the back and announced, “I’m hungry. Who’s with me?”
“Totally,” No stated on an easy, lazy grin.
“Yeah, Miz Holliday,” Clarisse answered.
“I’m always hungry,” Finley muttered the God’s honest truth.
“I’m Dusty, honey,” I said to Clarisse as Mike angled in.
“She’s Rees,” No offered as Clarisse studied me.
“Yeah, that’s my nickname,” she confirmed softly.
“You cool with me calling you that?” I asked.
“Yeah, I’m cool.” Again with the soft. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Finley looking out the side window but he was doing it with a grin playing at his mouth that said he was listening to Clarisse’s quiet words and he liked how they sounded.
“Excellent,” I said to Clarisse but I was also thinking about my nephew.
He was a teenage boy which meant that in normal circumstances, he had one thing on his mind. In the current circumstances, he had everything on his mind and most of it was no good. Going out with the girl who had to be the most beautiful girl to hit The ‘Burg’s high school in the last century would give him good things to think about while I (and Mike, obviously) took most of the other shit away that he had to think about.
“Angel, you wanna quit yammerin’, turn around and buckle up so I can feed these kids?” Mike asked and I rolled my eyes at Clarisse then turned around.
“Sure,” I agreed readily.
I buckled in. Mike started her up.
And away we went so Mike could feed a car full of teenage kids and me.

Mike tore his mouth from mine.
Using his hand curved around the back of my head, he shoved my face in his neck and in my ear, growled, “Shit, f**k, honey.”
I knew what he was saying.
He’d dropped off his kids at his house with Finley graciously offering to walk out Mike’s back gate, through the frozen field in the February night cold to get home. He’d done this under Mike’s suspicious gaze but Clarisse’s excited one. Mike, surprisingly, agreed. Then, following my directions, he drove us to what Dad and Granddad called “The Back Forty”. It was more like “The Back Two Hundred”, a lane that cut through our land that was far from a hop, skip and a jump from our house. At the end of the lane was a stand of trees that surrounded a creek fed mini-pond that was really the bend of the creek where it widened and deepened significantly. It was an old-fashioned watering hole that even had a tire hanging from one of the trees that you could swing out, jump off and land in the water. Growing up, Darrin and I, my girlfriends, his guy friends (but never Debbie) frequented it regularly in the summers.
Now, like two teenagers, Mike parked his truck there so we could make out.
This escalated dramatically and the way it did, what with our make up, break up, long separation, great phone sex and fantastic real sex, I decided I needed room to move. So I found the controls and maneuvered the back of Mike’s seat to near full on recline. I was out of my jacket, Mike out of his, I was straddling him and we kept making out with my hands up Mike’s sweater and Mike’s hands feeling me up in ways that made me press down and rock against his hard crotch.
I wanted him inside me.
And by his words I knew he wanted that too.
“We can do this,” I whispered into his neck.
“Honey –”
My hand slid down his belly then pressed in deeper as it slid over his groin and that got me an unintelligible growl that was so hot I felt it heat my entire body.
I lifted my head and caught his eyes in the moonlight.
“We can do this.” This time the words were breathy.
He held my eyes.
Then he whispered, “Get ready to climb on me, Angel.”
That was all I needed.
I rolled off him to the passenger side and made short work of tugging off my boots, my socks and my jeans, multitasking by taking my panties with them. Then I shifted and rolled back noting in my foreplay haze that Mike had got out a condom during my disrobing.
He was ripping it open. I was yanking at his belt. He slid it out of the packet. I was unbuttoning his jeans. Then I was yanking them down his h*ps and he was rolling it on.
By this time, my legs tucked into his hips, my head bent watching his hand work, I was breathing so heavy I was panting.
His hand went to my ass. I lifted my head, my lips went to his and I felt him position himself so I had the tip.
“We need to find a bed,” he muttered against my lips but it was rumbling, low and so hot it was scorching so that didn’t heat me. It burned straight through me.
“This’ll do,” I muttered back.
“We need to find a bed.”
I ground down, filling myself with him. His fingers clenched in the flesh of my ass, his other hand went from between us to drive into my hair, he groaned and I whimpered.
“You’re right, sweetheart, this’ll do,” he whispered against my lips then pressed my head down so he could take my mouth in a hot, wet kiss.
I rode him, slow, sweet, glorying in having Mike back inside me as he kissed me in his hungry way that I liked a whole lot and I did this a while.
Finally Mike stopped kissing me and ordered, “Go faster, Angel.”
“I like this.”
“Go faster, Dusty.”
“I –”
His hand went from my ass and his thumb found my clit.
I went faster.
“That’s my girl,” he muttered and I felt his smile against my mouth.
I didn’t care he got what he wanted because I freaking loved how he went about getting it. He was pressing, twitching, rolling. God, I’d never felt that before, not from a man except the times I’d been with him, of course. The pressure, the movement, it was better than any vibrator. It was the best.
