“Shh.” He speared his fingers into her hair, palmed the back of her head, and deepened the kiss until Amy was like putty in his arms. “I’ve missed you, Amy.”
And that’s when her tears started. “I’ve missed you, too, Josh. So much.”
He kept one arm around her, keeping her flush against his body, and he used his free hand to brush the wait hair out of her face. “You’re more beautiful than I remembered,” he whispered.
Her breath caught on a sob and she smiled despite her tears. “There’s something I have to tell you.” At that moment, the rain went from a light drizzle to a downpour. They were both soaked instantly.
“C’mon,” Josh shouted. “Let’s go back inside.”
Amy nodded and took his hand. Together they entered Mallory’s. For the most part, no one really paid them any attention – except for her mother, sister, and friends. They couldn’t stop staring. Shivering, Amy slid her arms around Josh’s waist and held on to him. He immediately put his arms around her and kissed her forehead. “We have an audience,” he said, removing her arms from around him and taking a step back.
“I don’t care,” she said defiantly as she stepped up to him, grabbed the back of his neck, and pulled his mouth down to her. She parted his lips with her tongue and kissed him, pouring all of her emotion, all of her heartbreak, all of her fears into that one kiss.
“Amy,” he pulled her closer, “are you sure about this? Everyone can see us. There will be no going back after this.”
“I don’t care,” she repeated, taking his face into her hands and looking at him pointedly. “I’m in love with you Josh and I don’t care who knows. I love you.”
His eyes searched hers and she held her breath waiting for him to respond. “Baby,” he whispered, rubbing his thumb over her bottom lip causing her to shiver. His eyes turned dark and his voice became deeper in that way that let Amy know he was aroused. Her heart raced at the possibility that there was still hope for them. He rested his forehead on hers and closed his eyes.
“Please say something,” she pleaded quietly. “Please tell me that this isn’t over between us. Please, Josh, tell me…” Her words were absorbed into her tears.
“I need to hear you say it again, that you love me.” He opened his eyes and the look in them stole her breath.
“I love you, Josh. I love you and I don’t care who knows it. I don’t care what anyone thinks or says. All I want is to be with you.”
Josh crushed his mouth over hers and kissed her so long and so hard she momentarily forgot where she was or that there was a bar full of people now watching them. His hands coursed down her back and landed on her ass, squeezing it and yanking her even closer to him. There was no mistaking the feel of his erection and she moaned, wanting and needing to feel him inside of her. “I love you, Amy.”
“I don’t know what the hell you’ve done to my daughter, but when I figure it out, I’ll have you arrested,” her mother said, glaring at Josh. Then she grabbed Amy’s arm. “Come on, we’re leaving right this second.”
“No.” Amy jerked out of her mother’s hold and backed up so that her back was pressed against Josh’s chest. He protectively wrapped his arms around her.
“Excuse me?” Darcy, Tricia, and Beth had walked up behind Amy’s mother and were looking at Amy with confusion and what she guessed was also contempt.
“I’m not leaving here with you, Mother. And I’m sorry to ruin your night, Darcy, but I love Josh. He’s the man I want to be with. You can either all accept that or not. I quite honestly don’t care one way or another.”
“Amy, you are so selfish,” Darcy said. “Don’t you care how this will affect the family?”
“No.” She shook her head. “I’m tired of living up to your ideals. Josh makes me happy and if that isn’t good enough for you guys then I’m sorry.” Josh’s hold on her tightened and she drew strength from his embrace.
Her mother stepped closer and lowered her voice. “No daughter of mine is allowed to ruin her life for a piece of trash like him.”
“Then I guess I’m not your daughter any more, am I?” Amy said in a controlled, cold tone that matched her mother’s.
Straightening, her mother looked at Amy with disgust, and then turned on her heel and walked out. Darcy and Tricia followed. Amy fought back tears. No matter what she said, it hurt to know her own mother couldn’t support her decisions.
“Wow Amy, when I said it must be a guy I didn’t think it would be this guy,” Beth said.
Amy groaned. “Beth?”
Beth smiled and then hugged Amy. “I’m only teasing. If he makes you happy, then I’m happy for you.” Beth released Amy and pointed at Josh. “If you hurt her, you’ll have to deal with me.”
“Don’t worry.” Josh hugged Amy to him again and kissed her temple. “I won’t ever hurt her.”
“Good.” Beth smiled again. “Call me tomorrow?”
“Yeah.” Amy smiled. When Beth left, Amy turned in Josh’s arms and looked up at him. “Please take me home.”
He shook his head and winked. “No, I can’t do that. But I will take you to my house.”
“That’s what I meant.”

Josh couldn’t believe what Amy had done at the bar, how she’d stood up to her mother and sister, and how she declared that she loved him without any reservations or fear. She sighed and snuggled closer to him. As soon as they got to his house, they’d torn at each other’s clothes and had sex on the foyer table. Then he’d carried her upstairs and made love to her for almost an hour. Now she slept beside him, her head on his chest and her arm draped over his stomach. Holding her like this felt so right and it was a feeling he never wanted to be without again.
“I love you,” he whispered, kissing her forehead.
“Mmm, love you too,” she mumbled sleepily.
He smiled. “I thought you were asleep.”
She adjusted and looked up at him. “Then why were you talking to me?”
Laughing, he said, “I don’t know. I just like saying that.”
Amy scooted up his body and found his lips. Then she flung her leg over his waist and straddled him. He groaned at the feel of her hot sex rubbing against his cock. “For the record, I really like hearing it.”
“Oh yeah?” He massaged her ass cheeks, spreading them slightly and holding her down on his now fully erect cock.
“Yeah,” she moaned and rotated her hips.
He nipped at her bottom lip. “I love you, Amy Kent.” He slid his finger down the length of her ass until he found her wet pussy and eased his finger inside of her.
She gasped with pleasure and bore down on his hand.
His cock twitched at the sound of her low, throaty moan. He was eager to bury himself inside of her again. They hadn’t used a condom either time they’d had sex tonight and he had no intentions of using on this time, either. He slowly eased his finger in and out of her, teasing her lips with his tongue. Josh clutched her chin between his thumb and forefinger and held her face still. “I don’t ever want to spend another night without you, Amy.”
“You don’t have to.” She lowered her mouth and kissed him hard.
Josh pulled his finger from her, grabbed the base of his cock, and positioned it at her opening, but didn’t enter her. He held her hips so that she couldn’t slide down on him. “Move in with me.”
She pulled back and looked down at him. “What?”
“Move in here with me,” he repeated. “I want to wake up to your gorgeous smile every morning.” He pushed his cockhead inside of her and her breath caught on a moan. “I want to be able to make love to you every night.” He pushed further into her. Amy sat up and arched her back, taking all of him deep inside of her. He arched his neck and sucked in a breath at the feel of her hot little pussy enveloping his bare cock. “Amy,” he grunted, pulling her down so that they were chest to chest.
“Feels so good,” she murmured.
Josh wrapped his arms around her back,
held her tight to his body, and fucked her hard and fast for a few seconds, making her scream his name, which only encouraged him some more. Then he stopped. “I want an answer, Amy.”
She put her palms flat on his chest and pushed herself into a sitting position again. She flung her head back and fondled her breasts. It was hard to focus on getting a straight answer from her when she was grinding on his cock like she was.
Josh sat up and Amy crossed her legs behind him. He nibbled, kissed, and licked at her neck and throat as she continued to move in the most erotic way. “Baby, please.” He nipped at her chin, and then kissed her fully on the mouth. “Don’t ever leave me.”
“I won’t,” she said, sucking his bottom lip into her mouth before claiming his lips in another kiss. “I promise.”
“Then marry me.”
Amy stilled and looked at him, her eyes wide and full of uncertainty. “What did you just say?”
“I asked you to marry me,” he said his voice serious. “I meant it when I said I didn’t ever want to spend another night without you.”
“Josh…I don’t know what to say. I…” She shook her head and he thought for sure she was going to tell him no. Then she said, “Yes.”
“Yes?” He wanted to make sure he heard her right.
“Yes,” she confirmed. Amy took his face into her hands and kissed him. Slowly, she started to move on him again.
Josh didn’t think he’d ever be as happy as he was in that moment. He had the woman he loved in his arms and soon she would be his wife. She was his. Forever. He twisted around so that she was flat on her back and he was on top of her. She tightened her legs around him and dug her nails into the flesh of his back.
Her tight pussy sucking him deeper into her, milking him, riding his thrusts was going to drive him mad and it felt so damn good. He steadily and skillfully pushed her to the edge of insanity before retreating to a slower, more controlled movement.
“I love being inside of you,” he said as he felt her start to lose control beneath him. His cock swelled inside of her, ready to explode with his release. He growled as he put his weight into his arms, pushing into her harder, faster, deeper until she was literally screaming his name.
“Josh!” She clung to him, pulling him down to her as if she needed him closer, deeper.
His lips pressed against hers, tasting her raging desire. He could feel her tightening around him. She was going to come and he was going to do the same. There was no stopping it, and he didn’t really want to. Coming inside of her was the most glorious feeling in the world and it would never get old. And the realization that he’d be able to do this whenever he wanted drove him over the edge.
Impaling her with one final hard thrust, her release showered his already sensitive cock seconds before he exploded. He jerked inside of her, spurting his seed into her. Her arms locked around his neck, his arms rested on either side of her head as they were swept up in a wave of raw bliss.
She buried her face in his neck, and he shuddered. Collapsing his body on to hers, he buried his face in her hair. “Baby, you always make me lose control.”
Amy chuckled. “Well, we have the rest of our lives to work on that.”
“Yes we do,” he agreed, kissing her neck. He never imagined that he’d find a woman that would make him want to settle down. But he had. And now that she was his, he was never going to let her go.
