“So yeah, I’m scared of this. I don’t know what the fuck I’m doing, but I wanna do it as long as I’m doing this with you.”

“Zo, I can tell you with certainty, a man that has been where I am now, as deep as I was last night, will damn sure have an issue with me telling him what to do, and stop frowning at me like that, as amazing as this is…” The pads of his fingers glided up and down the crotch of my pants. “It’s not your best quality. Your heart is and the fact that you’re smart as hell and don’t take shit from anyone but still manage to make even the worst fuckups in the world feel like the world is his for the taking. He knows what he lost.” I stared at him, blinking hard before I attacked his lips, thrusting my tongue in his mouth trying to have as much of him as humanly possible.

“Lawton was tall, so damn tall and undeniably sexy, with smooth dark skin, which was littered with ink from his neck down to his insanely large hands. His biceps were thick planks of muscle, which were nicely defined. A magnificent display of strength. This was my first time being so close to a specimen of his caliber, and I prayed it didn’t show. I didn’t have much of a poker face, so I was sure he knew exactly what I was thinking. Although I wasn’t there to drool over him, it was happening—metaphorically speaking—when I should have been focused on the goal of fixing his fucked-up-ness.”
