���Let me clarify, baby; whose are these?��� He rolled his teeth gently across them.
���Yours, Lucas. They���re yours,��� Tessa gasped.
���Perfect. I really love them.��� Lucas kissed her lips savagely as his hand moved up her pajama shorts. He rubbed her thigh.
Tessa���s head fell back as his fingers lightly rubbed her silky panties. ���Baby, whose is this?���
Tessa rocked her hips into his finger and groaned when her rubbed harder. ���Mine. Oh God… yours, Lucas. I am yours.���
���Your panties are damp, baby.��� He pulled his hand out of her pajamas and sucked his finger, then pushed up her pajamas again. ���Not wet enough baby. You���re drunk and I���m high��� I promised no drunk sex with you, but I could still make you come, fucking you with my finger. Would you like that?��� He rubbed her panties harder, and she moaned louder. ���Whose is this baby? Whose hot little pussy is this?���
���Yours, Lucas. Only yours.��� She took her hand and rubbed his bulging erection. ���And this is mine.���
���Someday soon, it���s going to be all yours.��� His finger dipped underneath her panties. She quivered as she felt the burn. ���This is mine, too. I am claiming it right now.��� Lucas rubbed across her clit. She yelled out. ���Shhh, baby, keep quiet. I want to play right here for a long time.��� He stroked her clit and she moaned loudly as she rocked into him.
���Tessa, you out here?��� Alex called from the window.
���Be in in a minute,��� Tessa closed her eyes and let out a frustrated breath.
���I love you, baby.��� Lucas kissed her and stood up. ���Walk in front of me, please.���
���Okay,��� she whispered and nuzzled her head into his neck.
���Fuck I can���t wait to be buried inside of you.���
She leaned up and kissed him. ���We have to go in.���
He smiled, ���I know.���
They sat quietly in the living room staring into each other���s lust filed eyes. No words were spoken but it was clear to both of them what they wanted.
CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
John walked out of his room, what the hell was he thinking? He asked himself. He went in the kitchen and started breakfast.
���Good morning Daddy,��� Tessa said and looked ashamed.
���Tessa, you have church today actually all of you do, wake them up, everyone needs to get ready,��� John said avoiding eye contact.
���Daddy I am sorry,��� Tessa tried to get him to look at her.
���Oh no Tessa Ross, that look���s not going to work,��� she walked toward him and hugged him, ���Okay that may help.���
She took the spatula and started cooking, ���Fine just don���t do it again!��� John snapped.
He heard the kids laugh in the other room, he shook his head in frustration. They all walked out, ���Good morning John.���
None of them could keep their eyes off one another, and John rolled his eyes.
* * *
After church, Tessa took Lucas to get some clothes from his house.
���Come help me?��� he asked.
���Sure,��� Tessa smiled as she got out of the truck.
���Why where you looking at me so weird at the church?��� Lucas asked when she walked out of his closet with some clothes in his hand.
Tessa smiled. ���Did it make you uncomfortable?���
���Kind of. What���s going on?���
���I don���t know, there���s just something about you that���s different.���
���Okay,��� Lucas said, looking confused.
���Two days ago I was a wreck, and now you���re living with us,��� she said softly. She handed him some clothes.
���You okay with that?��� he asked.
���I don���t know. It���s going to be weird, don���t you think?��� Tessa asked, walking back into his closet.
���A little bit, especially because I think everything you do is hot, even the foot stomping thing last night������ he began.
���Twice.��� They said it at the same time, then laughed.
She looked up at him and smiled. Damn, those green eyes showed everything when he let them.
He looked at her and ran his hands nervously through his hair. She looked away.
���You going to miss this big bed?��� she asked, ���I mean, my house isn���t like this.���
���Are you going to miss this big bed?��� Lucas asked, picking her up and throwing her in it.
She laughed and he jumped on her. ���Nice.���
Tessa kissed him. There was something different in the way his kiss felt now; soft and gentle, more playful than before. She laughed.
���Something funny, Tessa?��� Lucas asked.
���I don���t know.��� She laughed harder.
He sat up and looked at her. ���You���re being silly.���
���Sorry,��� she said. ���I just feel different; you kiss me differently now.���
���How so?��� he asked, looking embarrassed.
���It���s sweeter.���
���Oh,��� he scowled. ���Was last night sweet?���
She shook her head and swallowed hard.
���Maybe that���s what you want now?��� She giggled as Lucas kissed her neck.
���Not to ruin the moment, but it is nice, like you are less guarded, or you���re not in a hurry,��� Tessa said, trying to make him less uncomfortable.
���Okay. Weird to hear, but good. ��� Lucas said.
���It���s not like you���re in a rush, or like you want to tear off my clothes and bend me over the bed right now. It���s like you can enjoy it, and well… I don���t know.��� She rolled over and buried her face in the pillow.
���Tessa, I absolutely want to tear your clothes off and bend you over the bed. Maybe it���s you. Maybe you���re less guarded, maybe you trust me a little more. You���re definitely more relaxed. Maybe you finally believe me when I say I love you,��� he said quietly as he wrapped his arms around her.
Her phone rang. It was her father. ���Your Mom will be here in an hour, Tessa. You need to be here as well.���
���I will. We will.��� She smiled and hung up. ���That was my dad,��� she said, sitting up. ���My mom���s coming over.���
���Oh, boy.��� Lucas looked down and grabbed his bags.
���Okay, so you know how Jade and Tommy have their six month rule?���
���Yeah, I hear his countdown almost daily,��� Lucas laughed.
���I think we should pick a date. That way there is no pressure, but we know it���s going to happen,��� Tessa said.
���Okay,��� he chuckled. ���How about tomorrow?���
She laughed. ���Tomorrow it is.��� His jaw dropped. ���No, seriously. Let���s pick a date.���
���How do you just pick a date, Tessa?��� he asked. ���How will that be at all romantic or spontaneous? You know the stuff you girls like.���
���Okay, then,��� she said. ���Well, we better get going. My mom will be at the house soon.���
She started to stand and he grabbed her and pulled her onto him. ���What���s an acceptable amount of time, Tessa Ross?��� he asked, trying not to smile.
���I don���t know.��� Tessa scowled and looked away.
���Do you need this date?��� Lucas asked, serious now.
���Yes, actually. I think I do,��� she said, still annoyed. She wasn���t sure why, maybe it was because she needed to know it wouldn���t happen too soon, or maybe she just needed to know that it would happen someday.
He grabbed her face and turned it back to him. ���What are you thinking? Honestly, I want to know.���
���Well, lots of things. Like maybe I need to know because I���m concerned you won���t be able to wait that long for me,��� Tessa said. ���Or that you actually don���t want me.���
���How can you think I don���t want you after last night?��� Lucas asked.
���I don���t know,��� she pouted, ���maybe because I���ve offered it up, on a silver platter as you said, and you turn me down.���
���Well you were drunk, baby. I don���t want you to hate me,��� Lucas whispered.
���What if I said I want you now?��� she asked.
���I would kiss you like this.��� He gently took her face and kissed her cheek, then moved down her neck and up to her ear. He sucked her earlobe for just a second and moved down her neck, across her collarbone and up the other side to her ear. ���And then I would lay you down on my bed,��� Lucas whispered and gently put her down on the pillow. Lucas straddled her and pulled his shirt over his head and bent down and kissed her. ���Your shirt would be next,��� he whispered as he took his finger and traced the imaginary line between her breasts down to her belly button and started to slowly un- tuck it with his fingers.
She did not want him to stop. Her heart was racing. ���Lucas,��� she finally breathed. ���My Mom.��� She grabbed his hand.
���And then I would hear that,��� he said, sounding frustrated as he laughed deeply. ���Yes, we need to pick a date. This is going to kill me.��� He fell onto her and groaned.
She laughed and kissed him. They got up and grabbed his bags and walked out to the truck. She drove.
���Okay, any ideas?��� Tessa asked, pulling out of the driveway.
���I have a question first,��� Lucas said.
���What���s that?��� Tessa asked smiling.
���I think we have the kissing thing down pat, wouldn���t you say? It���s two months today. Last night we played. My finger actually rubbed your clit,��� Lucas smiled.
���Eww, that���s a gross word,��� Tessa scrunched up her face.
���Say it,��� Lucas egged her on. ���Say clit, Baby.���
���I will not,��� she tried to keep a straight face as he repeated the word several times. Finally, she started laughing.
���Okay, fine. We were fucked up,��� he conceded and laughed. ���Starting over now.��� He let out a frustrated breath. ���Kissing.���
She grinned. ���I really like kissing you.���
���Me too, baby, but there are other things that I want to do to you,��� he said in a huskier voice.
���Like what?��� Tessa���s heart beat faster and she swallowed hard.
���Your tits, baby. They are the most perfect I have ever seen,��� Lucas said softly.
���Sorry, no go. I already offered, and you turned them down. They are kind of mad at you,��� she laughed.
���Please tell them I���m sorry,��� Lucas grinned.
Tessa took one hand off the wheel and lifted her shirt. ���Tell them yourself,��� she said grinning. She had on a blue lace bra that snapped in the front.
���Tessa,��� he said in a strained voice.
���Don���t talk to me; talk to them,��� she said. He reached his hand over and she slapped it. ���You better apologize to them first. They are not that kind of girls.���
���I���m very sorry, more sorry than you can imagine, that I didn���t take you up on your offer at the lake. You���re lovely, and I want nothing more than to touch you right now, skin on skin, nothing between my hands, my mouth and you. May I ?���
She pulled her shirt down. ���They accept your apology but want you to wait until Friday.��� ���I���ll take that,��� he said, sitting back in the seat, breathing deeply.
���What else?��� she asked grinning with excitement.
���I think we are good for right now, Tessa. I���d prefer to be hard when I talk to your parents. ���She smiled and took his hand. ���Both hands on the wheel please,��� he said throwing his head back into the seat. She laughed.

Maggie was upstairs when they walked in. ���Tessa, Lucas, come up here, please,��� she yelled down
���Good luck,��� Alex said, clearly annoyed.
Maggie was screwing something into the bedroom door when they walked upstairs. ���These are door alarms,��� she said. ���At night, John will turn them on, and in the morning he will turn them off.���
���Okay, Mrs. Ross,��� Lucas said.
���What if we have to pee in the middle of the night?��� Tessa crossed her arms and Lucas shook his head no, hoping she would not argue.
���Well, the alarm will go off, honey. That���s kind of the point,��� Maggie said. She opened the door and closed it. The alarm went off and then silenced. ���See? No big deal, right Lucas?���
���No big deal, Mrs. Ross.��� He agreed.
���Tessa, your Dad filled me in on the details ��� all of them,��� Maggie glared at her. ���Lucas, I am sorry about everything you���ve gone through. I truly am, but please remember that Tessa is my daughter, and she means the world to me.���
���Yes ma���am, I will.���
���Alright, then. Tessa, you���ll come with me on Wednesday nights, understand?��� she said.
���Yes,��� Tessa said softly.
���I���ll see you then.��� Maggie hugged Tessa and kissed her head.
* * *
John was in the kitchen, ���Do you know what you���re doing?��� Maggie asked.
���Do any of us Maggie?��� John asked with hurt in his voice.
Maggie shook her head no and tears filled her eyes. John hated to see her upset, he always had.
���Maggie,��� he grabbed her and hugged her and she let him.
A few moments passed and Maggie looked up at him, ���See you Wednesday,��� she wiped her eyes and walked out the door. John���s heart sank.
* * *
Maggie and John had set up the boy���s room. They had moved Molly���s old bed in and put up a clothes rack and a bin for Lucas to use for his clothes. Tessa was pulling his clothes out and putting them on hangers. She smiled when she grabbed a pair of black boxer briefs. She threw them across the hall to her room, and grinned at him.
���What are you doing?��� Lucas asked as he folded clothes and put them in the bins..
���New pajamas,��� she mumbled under her breath. ���I���m going to be in your pants tonight.���
���What did you say?��� he asked, laughing.
���Do I really need to repeat myself?��� Tessa smiled, looked down at his groin, and raised her eyebrow.
���Please, don���t,��� Lucas said in a soft deep voice.
Tessa laughed and continued going through his stuff. She found his white hat and put it on his head. ���The first time I saw, you this was on your head. You look so hot
in white hats.���
���I thought I was an arrogant ass,��� Lucas said.
���You were, sometimes still are, but you���ve always been a lot of fun to look at,��� Tessa grinned.
She grabbed his cologne, took it in her room, and sprayed her bed. Lucas followed her and jumped on her bed.
���This is where you sleep every night, huh?��� he asked.
She nodded and jumped on him, then kissed him.
He clenched his jaw. ���I promised your father no hands,��� he whispered quietly.
���Okay,��� she smiled, circling her hips on his lap as she bit her bottom lip. He started to grab her. ���No hands, Mr. Links,��� she said, still moving again.
He put his hands in the air and stood up. She had no choice but to grab onto him. She smiled when she felt him against her. ���Down girl���please.���
Tessa slid down his body all the way to her knees. He stepped over her and groaned. ���You���re killing me, Tessa.���
She followed him across the hall and grabbed his waist. ���You said ���down girl���. I was going down.���
He took her hands and kissed them. ���It���s going to be a long three months if I���m fighting this every day.��� He kissed her head.
She saw the pain in his eyes. ���Does it hurt?���
He looked at her and chuckled. ���Kind of.���
���Well, how? What���s it feel like?���
���Like… pressure and no explosion,��� Lucas said.
���What does the explosion feel like?��� Tessa asked grinning.
���Well, for me it���s kind of like when you have to pee really bad and you have to hold it for a long time. That���s the pressure. And then when you finally go the bathroom, that feeling times twenty. Not sure what it feels like for a girl, though. But I���m sure you���ll let me know���
���Deal. So next Friday, you get these,��� she said, pointing to her chest. ���And the next Friday I get that,��� Tessa said grinning from ear to ear.
