“Well, I wanted to see if you’d consider working for me, with Brittany, in the office. She needs help.” I don’t know what to say.
“Why the hell did I put all those applications in today if you wanted me to work for you?”
“I didn’t know, until you told me this morning about that and Brittany and I had this planned for this evening,” he smiles, trying to ease my annoyance.
“That sounds great. I’d love to.”
“Yay! I can’t wait to have you there with me,” Brittany dances in her chair. “Now ask her the other thing, Alex.” I stare at them both confused.
He clears his throat again. “I… well, I know you need a place to stay soon. We’ve been together a while now and I love you. I want you to move in with me. What do you think?”
Brittany squeals, “Say yes, Jessa!”
“Shut up,” Alex says shaking his head and I laugh at him. He is so nervous waiting for my answer.
“Yes,” I smile. “I would love to live with you.”
“Really? You will?” He pulls me in and hugs me. I think we both forget we’re in a restaurant surrounded by a bunch of other diners.
“Okay y’all. You’re gonna cause us to get kicked out,” Brittany whispers.
I giggle, pulling away and looking around, noticing a few people watching us. I don’t like attention drawn to me.
“When can you move in?” Alex’s excitement is contagious.
“Well, I don’t have much at mom’s, but I did tell her I’d help her pack up the house.”
“I’ll hire a moving company. Neither of you will have to pack a thing.”
“I can’t ask you to do that, Alex.”
“You didn’t. I offered.” Before I could protest, he gives me a quick kiss on the cheek.
“Okay. I guess that would be a big help. I’ll talk with mom to make sure she’s okay with it.”
“She is. I already asked her.”
I frown. “You were so sure I’d say yes, weren’t you?”
“Well, I was hopeful. I wanted to have all my bases covered if you did say yes, and you did, so I have everything taken care of.” I shake my head and laugh.
“I’m so happy for y’all. I can’t wait for us to be working together. Oh, and no sex stuff in the office. That’s a deal breaker for me,” Brittany says, reaching for another mozzarella stick.
Alex and I look to each other, and he gives me a wink. “Too late,” I die laughing.
“Y’all are fucking gross. I knew it.”
Our pizzas arrive and we enjoy our dinner. We talk about what the job entails and what I’ll be expected to do and all that jazz. I’m so lucky to have them in my life. I can’t wait to start this job. I’m going to kick ass at it. I’m happy to take some of the stress off Brittany. She works so hard. That disaster of a desk shows that. And I’ll soon be living with Alex. It will be my home, too. I can’t wait to wake up with him every morning and going to bed with him every night.
Chapter Eighteen
Alex wastes no time getting the movers scheduled. A week later, the house is completely packed and everything’s loaded. Mom and I take a moment to look around the empty house.
She pulls me closer to her. “Honey, I’m so proud of you and so happy that you’ve found such an amazing man to spend your life with. I can hear wedding bells for you soon.”
I roll my eyes. “Mom. Don’t. I’m happy just the way things are right now.”
“I know you are, sweetie,” she gives me a kiss on my cheek before taking a final look around.
“Well, I think that’s everything. I checked every drawer and closet upstairs. It’s empty.”
“It looks weird, doesn’t it? I loved this house. Now a new family can make memories here.” She starts to tear up and I hug her.
“Whoever buys it will love it as much as we did, mom.”
“Okay. You still have your key to check in until it sells?”
“Yes, mom. I’ll drop in to check on it.”
“Thank you. I guess that’s it then. Let’s get home to our men.” She glances back, with a lingering tear, as we walk out and she locks the door.
“I love you mom. I’ll see you soon.” I hug her once more.
“I love you, too, baby girl.”

I pull into the driveway of my new home. My home with Alex. I’m loving the sound of it. He comes out onto the porch with a smile on his face as I walk up.
“Welcome home,” he says with an infectious smile.
I run out of the car, and jump into his arms. “Thank you. I’m so excited to get to wake up with you every morning.”
He moans, “Me, too. I had the movers bring all your boxes upstairs. I’ve already hung up your clothes. I also took Lizzy’s stuff out of the drawers and packed them in boxes. I wasn’t sure of the order you like your socks and panties so I left that for you.”
“Thank you, Alex. I’m so proud of you. I know that couldn’t have been easy for you.”
“It wasn’t as bad as I’d thought it would be. I needed to do it a long time ago. You helped me realize that.” He hugs me tighter. “I did find something that kind of shocked me a bit.” He gives me a pointed look.
“What?” I’m not sure what could be so shocking.
“Well, come inside and I’ll show you,” he smirks.
I follow him inside and he’s acting like the cat that’s gotten the canary. He turns around facing me and pulls out Bob. Oh my God! I’d forgotten all about him. I haven’t needed him in a long time. I feel my face heating. I don’t know what to say. I want to slap him right now. He’s grinning so big.
“Impressive,” he says, wiggling him around in his hand.
“Stop that. You might drop him!” I reach for it, but Alex lifts it above his head.
“Him. It’s a him? You sound like it’s a person or something.” He scrunches up his face, trying to act pissed.
“That is Bob and he was my savior before you came along,” I say, reaching for it again.
He’s rolling with laughter, now. “Bob. You named it Bob?”
“Of course I named him. I loved him for a while,” I smile, trying to play along, even though I’m truly mortified. I should have put him in my purse when I was packing. I had no idea Alex would unpack my stuff.
“Tonight, I think I’ll have to see how good Bob pleases you,” his eyes smolder, as he steps closer to me.
“You mean you want to use him on me? You’re not mad?”
“What? Why would I be mad? I think it’s hot. I want to taste you while I play with it inside of you.”
“I don’t know. I always had to hide him. I knew if Tyler found him he would’ve been pissed and thrown it away. He would’ve said I was cheating with a vibrator or something.”
“Jessa, you know he had, and still has issues. It’s not a big deal to me at all. I think it could be a lot of fun.” He wiggles his eyebrows before glancing back at Bob.
I notice some of my pictures around the living room and it warms my heart that he’s making me feel so welcome. It’s his home, but now it’s mine, too. I can’t believe I live in this beautiful house. There’s not anything I’d want to change, either. I love everything about it.
Walking into the kitchen I notice my magnets on the fridge. I’m shocked he’s okay that my book swag, with bare chested men on them, are on his fridge. He could be on a book cover. I turn around and smile, “Thanks for putting the magnets up. I wasn’t allowed to have them on the fridge in the apartment.”
“I’m not intimidated one bit.”
“You could be on one, ya know?”
“You think so? I don’t know.” He shakes his head.
“Are you serious? Look at these arms,” I squeeze them. “Look at this chest,” lifting his shirt up, running my hands across the ridges of his six pack. “And these pecs,” tweaking his nipples. He’s watching my hands as they move across his soft skin and his mouth is open a little and I feel his breath on my forehead. His heart is also racing. I
’m turning him on, touching him and talking about his body. I never imagined I could do this to someone like him. Someone so hot. I don’t think he even knows how hot he is.
“If you keep touching me like this, I’m gonna have to take you upstairs to our bed.”
“I love hearing that. Our bed.” I wrap my arms around his waist. “Can Bob join us?”
“Uh, can you please never say that again. It sounds like another man is joining us. I will never share you.” The look on his face is priceless. He looks horrified and it makes me bust out laughing.
“I wanted to make you supper for your first night in your new home. What would you like to have?”
“That’s sweet, but I was hoping for some takeout so we can go to bed.”
“Are you tired?”
I smile, “No, not tired at all.”
I finally see he gets it. “How about Chinese?”
“That sounds perfect.”
After supper, we hurry up the stairs to bed. He takes off his shirt and jumps into bed and I join him. I snuggle into his strong arms and sigh. I see more of my pictures on the dresser and my side table. Some of me and my mom and a couple of my dad. I don’t know why I still have them. There’s also a new picture on his side. It’s a picture of me.
“When did you take that?”
“When you were sleeping.”
“I can see that,” I laugh.
“Do you like it? I thought you looked so beautiful, so peaceful and the sunrise coming in around your beautiful face. I had to take it.”
“I wish I saw myself as you do,” I say, kissing his chest.
“Jessa, you are a beautiful woman. Inside and out. I love everything about you. I even love your snoring.” He starts digging into my ribs causing me to squirm and giggle.
“I do not snore!” I move away from him as if I’m pouting.
“Oh yes you do,” he laughs. “I’ll record you next time.”
“Whatever. You still love me, though.”
“I sure do. Now get over here.” He pulls me on top of him. “Let’s get these clothes off.” Before I can start, he’s already lifting my shirt over my head and removing my bra. He leans up and kisses each nipple then draws one into his mouth. I arch into his mouth and bring my fingers into his hair.
“Raise up,” he says softly, dragging my pants down my thighs and I wiggle out of them. “I want to taste you. Scoot up here and sit on my chest. You can rest your hands on the headboard.” I’ve never done this before. So many firsts with Alex. I do as he says and try not to put all my weight on him. I look down on him and he smiles a devilish smile and licks his lips. I swear it’s the hottest thing I’ve ever seen.
One swipe of his tongue across my clit, eyes still on mine and I can’t possibly look away. This is so erotic seeing him lick me in this position.
“You taste so good Jessa, so addicting,” he says before sucking my clit into his mouth.
I groan, “You’re so good at it, too.” He reaches under the pillow and pulls out Bob and smiles.
“How do I turn it on,” he turns it over, looking for a switch I guess.
“You twist the bottom.” I can’t believe he’s about to use my vibrator on me.
Alex turns it on and the vibration begins in his hand, along with the loud buzzing sound. “Wow,” he says, his eyebrows raising. “Powerful,” he says and I giggle.
Alex licks and sucks a bit more before positioning Bob at my entrance, circling. “Raise up on your knees.” I do and he drags Bob through my wetness up to my throbbing clit and I moan, gripping the headboard. He brings it back down and pushes inside and clamping his mouth over my clit at the same time. He sucks and flicks his tongue at the same time as he pumps Bob, I mean the vibrator, inside of me. It feels so fucking good. I feel myself getting close already. I can hear how wet I am each time he moves it in and out. He’s licking my clit and goes down lapping up my juices and moans. “Fuck! You’re so wet, Jessa.”
I bring one hand behind me and stroke his erection through his jeans. I try to unbutton them but with what he’s doing to me it’s too hard so I give up and grip the headboard again. I feel my orgasm building quickly. My breathing quickens. He knows I’m close and pumps faster and puts more pressure on my clit as he licks harder and faster, moving his face side to side quickly. My head falls back and the ecstasy floods me. I scream with the intensity of his tongue and the vibrator. The convulsions seem to last forever. Alex pulls the vibrator out, turning it off and continues licking me softly, riding out my pleasure until I collapse on his face.
“Oh. My. God. Alex that was amazing.” I hear mumbles. “I’m so sorry,” raising up off his face.
“It was so good you thought you’d smother me,” he laughs.
I smile, “Now it’s your turn,” I say, kissing down his chest. I unbutton his pants and pull them down to his thighs. I grab Bob and his face scrunches up. He starts to say something and I shake my head. I’ve read that a vibrator on a man’s balls while giving head is very pleasurable. I want to try it and I think Alex might be surprised. I hope he likes it.
Turning it on, I wrap one hand around the base of his erection and drag the head across my lips. Alex’s eyes are glazed over with need, watching my movements. I think he’s curious about how I’m going to use the vibrator on him. He could be worried, too. I smile at the thought. I lick the tip and bring him inside, all the way back, his happy trail tickling my nose and I moan deeply causing him to suck in a deep breath through his teeth, his head falling back onto the headboard. I start sucking slowly, torturing him with each flick of my tongue on the tip. I use my other hand and bring the vibrator up to his balls as I go down and back up.
“Oh fuck, Jessa!” he cries, lifting his head. His fingers slide into my hair. His legs begin to tremble. I palm his balls and add more pressure with the vibrator. I circle the head and clamp around his length and suck faster. I taste a bit of his saltiness. I know he’s close. I bring him all the way in and swallow. He’s groaning and fisting my hair but never loses control. I suck the head hard and pump him with my hand. I feel him tense, “I’m close, Jessa. Fuck! So good,” he moans. I feel the hot liquid hit the back of my throat and I swallow quickly, sucking every last drop.
I lay beside him and snuggle into his side. I think he enjoyed that very much; it didn’t take as long for him to get his.
“So, how did you like that?”
“I don’t wanna admit it, but I liked it. How did you know to do that?”
“I read it in a book,” I laugh.
“Hhhhmmmm.” That’s all he says and then kisses my forehead. “I love you.” He pulls me closer to him.
“I love you, too.”
It’s been a wonderful welcome to my new home. My new life with Alex. We drift off to sleep together in our bed.
Chapter Nineteen
Monday rolls around and Alex and I ride in to the office together. I’m so excited to start my new job. I feel pretty in my slacks and blouse that Alex helped me pick out and I’m confident I can do a great job. Brittany is ecstatic, too. I’ll be taking a lot of stress off her and it should be fun working together.
We arrive a little early so I can get my desk set up and the laptop up and running. Alex also wants to go over a few things that I’ll be doing. It’s nothing too hard. I’ll answer phones, keep track of logs on the company vehicles, payroll, and other things.
Alex goes into his office to start his day and I’m sitting at my desk. I didn’t notice how nice it is the last time I was here. I was too concerned about Tyler stalking me and then preoccupied in Alex’s office. Oh, let’s not forget Brittany’s disaster of a desk. Looking at it now I notice she’s kept it clean and organized. With me here it should be able to stay that way.
I take a moment, to look at my surroundings. On one wall, there are a couple of photos hanging. I walk over to look at them. I see a younger Alex, not nearly as built as he is now. I take a closer look. Damn, he was hot back then. Standing next to him is
who must be his father. Alex looks a lot like him, same facial structure and hair color. His mother is on the other side and she seems very happy with a big smile on her face. Alex has her smile. They look like a great family.
I walk back to my desk as Brittany comes in.
“Hey bitch,” she says. “You look hot!”
“Thanks skank!”
“So, how’s it going?”
“Slow. No one’s called or come in yet.”
“Yeah. It will pick up soon. The crew and salesmen will be coming in any minute now.” She rolls her eyes.
“What’s that about?”
“You’ll see.”
A few minutes later the crews start to roll in and out. One salesman comes in and he’s cute.
“Who are you?”
“I’m Jessa. I’m helping Brittany in the office.”
He nods, “I’m George. I’m glad you’re here to help. She needs it.” He laughs at his own joke, as he goes to grab file from a cabinet.
I turn to Brittany as soon as he’s gone. “He’s cute!”
She nods. “Yes, and very married with a handful of kids.”
A few minutes later a tall man in a polo shirt comes walking in. He has tattoos all over his arms. He’s fucking hot. Dark brown hair and dark eyes. I look to Brittany and she has her face stuck in her phone oblivious to who’s walked in.
“You’re new,” he says.
Brittany barely looks at him, before going back to her phone. “You’re observant.”
“Hi. I’m Jessa. I’m working in the office with Brittany.” I smile and look away. His eyes are gorgeous. I wonder what his story is.
“I’m Nathan. I’m one of the salesman. The best one,” he smiles, displaying his beautiful white teeth. He walks over to Brittany and sits on the edge of her desk.
“Get off my fucking desk!” She makes a show of pushing him away. “How many times do I have to tell you that?”
“Every time,” he winks at her. “I like getting you wound up.”
“Why do you have to drive me crazy? It doesn’t help you at all. You know that right?”
