“Sorry, babe.”
Elli just smiled and shook her head as they pulled into his driveway, beside her truck. They sat in the truck for a moment, not moving.
“Can I ask a favor, babe?” Elli looked over at Shea, with a small smile on her face.
“Sure.”
“Will you stay?”
“My bag is in the truck.” He smiled, leaning over and kissing her before jumping out to help her out. She grabbed her bag and followed him upstairs.
After showering, Elli laid in bed watching him pack.
“I’m such a procrastinator,” he said with a grin, and she smiled.
“You just don’t want to go,” Elli teased. He smiled.
“You are right,” he said with a wink as he closed up the last of his suitcases.
He would only be gone for five days, but that felt like a lifetime.
“Where’s your bag?” she asked.
“They already have it at the rink.”
She nodded as he climbed into bed beside her.
“Why does Ryan call you Unky?” Elli asked as she laid across Shea’s chest, looking down at him. He moved his hand through her hair, cupping her face.
“This girl I was with last year told Ryan he had a Hunky Unky, and he’s been saying Unky ever since. Luckily he dropped the hunky, that would be awkward.”
Elli giggled as he smiled, closing her eyes as she leaned her face in his hand.
“You know we haven’t done that whole exes talk.”
Her eyes flew open, “Do we need to?”
“I would feel better if I knew some of your past.”
She bit her lip, looking down at his shirt.
“Okay.”
“Have you ever been married?”
“Nope, have you?”
“You are the first girlfriend of my adult life, no.” Elli laughed.
“True.”
“Have you been with a lot of men?”
Elli shook her head, “No, even when I was super skinny, I was really weird about who I dated. I’ve only had sex with four men.”
Shea looked away, completely embarrassed.
“I know you’ve been with more than that, and it’s okay.”
“Yeah. So anyway, have you ever loved any of them?”
“I thought I loved the last one, but I learned later that I didn’t.”
“How?”
“When we broke up, I didn’t cry. I didn’t even feel anything but relief.”
“Wow.”
“Yeah, have you loved anyone?”
“Nope, never. In high school I had the puppy love, but I’ve never loved a woman. I just used them I guess.”
“Maybe.”
“I’m not using you, though,” he said quickly since she made a face, but she smiled, smacking his chest.
“I know,” she said with a shake of her head, “But I need to tell you something, Shea.”
“What?”
“I haven’t been with anyone since that last guy.”
“Okay?”
She bit her lip again, and messed with the bottom of his shirt. “That was six years ago.”
“Say what?” Elli turned bright red; even her eyebrows were red.
“You haven’t had sex in six years?”
She shook her head, still not making eye contact. “I was really big Shea, and guys didn’t want me. When I lost a lot of the weight, I figured guys still didn’t want me, until you.”
“Come on, I know guys hit on you, babe. All the guys at the party said you were hot.”
“Well, yeah, but I didn’t believe that they really liked me. You, on the other hand, are very persistent.” He smiled, moving his fingers through her hair.
“Well, good thing for me, huh?”
“Yeah,” she said with a nod, “You think I’m a freak, huh?”
“Not at all,” he pulled her closer to him, “So since we’re done with that, come here and kiss me.”
She complied, bringing her lips to his for a long lusty kiss. He laid her back, his body on top of hers; her legs on either side of him, kissing down her neck, then back up. He kissed back up her jaw, letting their lips meet again for another long kiss. Her hands came up his sides, cupping his neck, then his face. He parted, taking a deep breath, looking down at her beautiful round face, the puffy pink lips that were kissing the crap out of him.
“Jesus, El, you drive me nuts.”
She gave him a little half smile, pulling him back down for another kiss. He could feel the heat from between her thighs, so he knew she was hot, just like he was. Just like the last time, when he went to put his hand under her shirt, she freaked, moving out from underneath him.
“Don’t you have to leave early tomorrow? Shouldn’t we go to sleep? Yeah, I think so,” she said so quickly that his head spun. She went under the covers, and gave him a small smile.
“Can you hold me again?” she asked in a small voice. Shea exhaled loudly, and ran his hands through his hair, but he nodded, wrapping his arms around her, holding her tight against him.
“Sorry if I poke you,” he whispered in her ear with a chuckle. She giggled.
“I like it,” she whispered after a few moments. He smiled, and pressed himself harder against her. Her soft curves felt great under his hands, and her butt cushioned his hard on perfectly. He was in heaven, so he closed his eyes, and the next thing he knew, he was out.
Elli leaned against the truck, watching Shea load his truck up with his bags. Yeah, it sucked, and next month she would have to say bye for the whole month. It figured she would break her years of no dating to date a guy that would be gone a lot.
Elli just smiled and shook her head as they pulled into his driveway, beside her truck. They sat in the truck for a moment, not moving.
