“You have been with me every day,” he said. “I love you, Jessica.”
He was so mad at her, but wanted her so badly. Don't back down, he thought. He knew he had every right to hate her, but he didn't. Luke could see the sadness in her eyes. He knew she felt horrible for what had happened. The thought of him being the only man she had ever been and how much he loved her took him over. Luke leaned forward and softly kissed her lips.
“I want to be in his life. I want to do everything with him and teach him everything there is to learn. I am not going anywhere. I am his father, and I will always be there for him. I am going to take care of him. You were my dream, my only dream. I would have given everything up to be with my family. I will not leave again. I will always be here. You are my love. You are my forever,” Luke said, as he took her hands in his and pulled her to her feet with him.
He wanted her to know how much he cared about her. Luke wrapped his arms around her and softly kissed her cheek.
“I want you in his life. I am so sorry Luke. I never wanted to be without you. I have followed you through college and your career. I never want to let you go again. I want us to be a family. I love you so much. He is going to be so happy to see you,” she said.
Luke looked into her eyes and covered her lips with his. His kiss was soft and sweet at first, but became more aggressive and claiming. He licked and sucked her bottom lip, before plunging his tongue into her mouth. Her tongue found his as if she were memorizing every bit of his mouth. It had been too long since he had tasted her, and he knew he needed to taste every inch of her body. She ran her fingers through his hair. Her fingers felt so good against him. He wrapped his hand in her hair and pulled slightly giving him better access to her mouth. His kiss was filled with passion. He needed to claim her as his. She was his, and he was never letting her go. He slid his hand under her shirt and slid it up as he cupped her breast in his hand and rolled her nipple through his fingers. His mouth found her other breast as he sucked her nipple and slowly slid it through his teeth. She leaned her head back and moaned.
Luke grabbed her hand and pulled her toward her bedroom.
“I can't wait another second to have you,” he said. “I have dreamt of this moment for so long.”
“Renee is bringing Lucas home at six,” Jessica said, as she tried to catch her breath.
“I am going to make up for every moment we have been apart,” he said, as he laughed.
“You have no idea how good that sounds,” she said. “It's been a very long time.”
Luke reached for her shirt and pulled it over her head. He pulled her mouth to his as he walked her back toward her bed. Her knees reached the edge and he softly pushed her back onto her bed. He reached down and slid her shorts down to the floor. She had on pink, lacy panties.
“Those are so sexy,” he said. “You look so damn good. Better than in my dreams, baby.”
He leaned down and kissed her breast as he held the other in his hand. She was so sexy. Her skin was so soft. He softly sucked her nipple as he felt it harden under his tongue. Luke gave the other side the same attention, before making a trail of tiny kisses down her belly. He stopped at the top of her panties and moved down to her thigh. He kissed up her thigh to the bottom of her panties, where he slid his tongue beneath them and across her soft skin. She arched her back and moaned as he slid his warm, wet tongue across her folds.
“You are so wet, baby,” he moaned. “You have no idea what you do to me. I can't believe you are really here with me.”
He slid her panties to side and looked at her. She was so sexy. Luke devoured her with his mouth. She was so ready for him. He was rock hard just from looking at her. She tasted better than he remembered. He licked and sucked on her wet pussy. Every bit of her was amazing. She put her hand on his head and gripped his hair as he pleasured her. He slid his tongue into her as she moaned out his name. It felt so good to hear his name from her lips. He had forgotten how good it sounded. Jessica pushed her hips into him and she pulled him into her. He loved the feel, taste, and smell of her. She was his, and he was never letting her go. He slid his tongue in and out of her and slid is fingers around her clit. Luke was so hard. He had no idea how he was going to last once he was inside of her. She bucked her hips into him as he picked up the pace and pressure of his tongue inside of her. She cried out his name repeatedly as she came. He continued to thrust his tongue into her, until he felt her relax around him. Luke looked up at her. He loved the sounds she made as she came. She pulled him up and smiled at him.
“That was amazing,” she said. “I had forgotten how good you make me feel.”
He laughed as she pulled him down so she could kiss him. Luke rolled on to the bed next to her. She moved so he was on his back as she crawled on top of him. Jessica covered his mouth with hers and thrust her tongue into his mouth. He loved that she was taking charge. She was so hot. Jessica reached for the bottom of his t-shirt and he leaned up so she could pull it over his head. She flung it to the floor and gasped as she looked down at him.
“You are so damn sexy,” she said, as she leaned down to kiss his chest. “I remember how hot you were, but you are all man now. I could spend all day kissing and touching these abs.”
“Baby, you can touch them anytime you want,” he said.
He reached down to pull her up to him, but she stopped him. She leaned down and kissed a trail of kisses down his chest and abs and stopped at the waist of his jeans. Jessica undid the button and unzipped them. She got off the bed and pulled them off one leg at a time. All that was left were his boxers. She slowly pulled them down as his erection sprang free. She let out a groan as she threw the boxers to the floor. Luke never took his eyes off of her. She leaned back down onto the bed and began to crawl up him. Her eyes stayed connected with his as she took his cock into her hand and stroked him. Luke let out a deep breath as she leaned down to lick across him. He quickly pulled her up.
“That will have to wait,” he said. “If you do that, I won't last long enough to be inside of you. Right now, that is where I want to be. I need you Jessica. I have waited way to long for this moment. I need to feel you around me.”
She smiled as she crawled up the rest of the way, keeping her hand wrapped around his very hard cock. Jessica straddled him as she placed him at her entrance. Slowly she slid down onto him as she moaned. He reached up and fondled her breasts as he played with her nipples. She arched her back as she pushed herself into his hands. Jessica took all of him into her. She leaned back and rested her hands on his legs as she lifted off of him and then slid back onto him again.
“You feel so fucking good around me,” he said, through raspy breath. “Come here.”
He pulled her forward and onto him as he claimed her with his mouth. His tongue pushed into her mouth as he thrust into her hard. Her hands went into his hair as she kissed him hard. He pumped into her deep and fast. There was no sweetness in his movements, just passion and need. He had to have her, all of her.
“Fuck, Luke,” she moaned into his mouth.
He grabbed her waist and flipped her onto the bed, without breaking their kiss. Jessica was under him within seconds. He leaned over her with his hands on each side of her head, as he plunged into her hard and deep. There was so much passion and love between them. Sweat was forming on his chest and she ran her hands across it and down his abs. She grabbed on his waist and put her legs around him.
“Damn, Jessica,” Luke moaned. “You have no idea how badly I have wanted you. From the moment I saw you at that party; I have wanted you beneath me. It feels so fucking good to be inside of you. I love you, baby.”
Jessica had her head back as he thrust into her. She moaned his name and grabbed him tight. Her eyes were closed as she ground into him.
“Open your eyes,” he said. “Look at me. I want you to see what you do to me. I want to look into your eyes as we come together. You are mine Jessica. All mine.”
He thrust into her hard and fast as she gri
pped his back and yelled his name. Luke could feel her tighten around his cock as he plunged into her. He looked into her eyes as he called her name with his own release.
She pulled him down to her and put her arms around his neck. He rolled off to the side, onto the bed. They both were quiet as they caught their breath evened out. Jessica rolled onto her side and put her arm across his chest and she ran her fingers through his sweat.
“I don't know how I went without you all those years,” she whispered, as she kissed his chest. “I'm not sure I will be able to go one day without having you inside of me again.”
“You won't have to,” he said, as he smiled. “I'm not planning on skipping one day with you. You are not going to be able to get rid of me.”
“I love you, Luke,” she said. “I am so sorry that I took those years away from us. I will make it up to you every single day, for as long as you will let me.”
“Can I be here when Lucas gets home?” he asked. “I want to be his father every second from now on. I am going to be the best father I can be. I want to make up for all of those years I have been gone.”
“Yes, you can be here when he gets home. You have nothing to make up for,” she said. “He knows everything about you. He will be so excited to meet you. I have never kept anything from him. He loves you.”
Luke was so happy to be in Jessica's bed with her. He was relieved that she had not had a family with another man. At the same time, he was hurt that he had not been a part of his son's life. He held Jessica as he thought about what he was going to do with his son. Luke couldn't believe it. He had a son. There were so many things the little boy had missed out on. He had missed out on so much of his son's life. Luke was going to do his best to make up for all of them. He already loved the little boy so much and would do anything for him.
Jessica fell asleep in Luke's arms. He didn't want to wake her. There was no way he wanted the moment to end. His mind went back to the day she broke up with him. She had seemed nervous, but he thought it was because he was leaving. He remembered her crying as she told him that she did not want to be with him anymore. She was very upset as she walked away from him. The last time she talked to him was a month later. He had quit calling her because he thought she was not interested in him anymore. Luke felt bad knowing that she had been afraid that she might be pregnant. He should have fought for her. Why didn't he fight for her? Why didn't he know she was pregnant? He was so happy that he had a son. Luke knew he was going to make sure they were a family. He had to put aside how angry he was that she had not told him. Jessica didn't want to disrupt his life and she was only eighteen at the time. He couldn't believe that her parents were so upset with her and had stopped talking to her over the baby. Why didn't they realize how important their grandchild was? How did she do it all by herself? He knew he needed to talk to Renee and thank her for everything she had done for his child. She was an amazing person. He hoped she realized just how wonderful she was. She was two years younger than her sister, and she had given up her own childhood to be there for her.
Luke thought about his own mother. She had a six year old grandson and didn't even know it. How was he going to tell her? How would she react? He knew his mother would open her arms and life to the little boy. She would love him so much. Would she hate Jessica? He had no idea how he was going to tell his mother. Crap, he thought, as he looked down at Jessica.
He snuggled into her and drifted off to sleep. Luke jumped when he heard an unfamiliar noise.
“Jessica, wake up,” he said, as he nudged her. “Is that your phone?”
It was a strange voice saying something he could not understand. Jessica jumped and ran to the living room.
“It's my ringtone for Renee. She plays with my phone and changes the ringtone for her calls. She likes to see how I react,” she yelled out, as she grabbed her phone.
She came back through the bedroom door and sat on the bed as she answered the phone.
“Hey Renee,” Jessica said into the phone.
Luke saw fear in her eyes as they widened. He could not hear the other line. Something was wrong. He moved next to Jessica.
“What?” Jessica asked. “Slow down, Renee. What's wrong?”
“What happened?”
“An accident where?”
“Is he okay?”
“Are you okay?”
“Renee, calm down so I can hear you.”
Luke saw the tears as they ran down Jessica's face. He rubbed her back and tried to hear the other side of the conversation. He could hear noises, but could not understand what Renee was saying.
“Its okay, Renee. Ride with him. Go with them. What hospital are they going to?”
Luke jumped off the bed, grabbed his clothes, and started putting them on.
“Okay, we are on our way. Is he okay? Is he going to be okay?”
“Shit, we'll be right there. It's going to be okay Renee. Nobody is going to blame you. It's not your fault. Stay with him. You have to calm down for him. Tell him I love him.”
Jessica hung up the phone and started to cry. Luke had just tied his shoes. He grabbed her into his arms and held her. She tried to talk, but nothing was making sense.
“Is everything okay?” he asked.
“I don't know,” she blurted out. “There was an accident. They are taking Lucas to the hospital. I couldn't hear what she was saying. We have to go. Is he going to be okay? He has to be okay.”
Luke held her tight. He was so scared, but he wanted to be strong for her. She had her face buried in his chest. He took her chin in his hand and looked into her eyes.
“Everything is going to be okay,” he said. “We are going to go together. I am going to be with you. We will all get through this together. I love you. He is going to be okay.”
Jessica pulled away from him, started pulling clothes out of drawers, and ran into the bathroom. Luke fell onto her bed with his face in his hands. He could feel the tears streaming down his face. Stay strong, he told himself. Be strong for her. All he could think about was his little boy. Be okay, please just be okay. He already loved the little boy so much and had never even met him. He was his son. He would do anything for him. Please let my baby be okay. I want to meet him and let him know that his dad loves him so much. I want to make up for every second he went without his father. He needs to know how important and amazing he is. Please don't let anything happen to my son, he thought. If anything has to happen to anyone, let it be me instead, he said silently. He has to be okay. Everything has to be okay. Jessica walked back into the bedroom, and Luke hurried to rub his face and dry his tears. He didn't want her to see him upset.
She walked over to him and wrapped her arms around him. He hugged her tighter than he ever thought possible.
“It's going to be okay Luke,” she said. “He's going to meet his dad. Do you know how happy he is going to be?”
Luke shook his head. He grabbed her hand and pulled her to the door. She hurried to lock the door. Luke pulled her down the porch steps and to his car.
“We are taking my car,” he said, and he hurried to open the door for her.
He ran around to his side and took off down the street.
Please, let my son be okay. Luke didn't care about being upset that Jessica had kept Lucas from him anymore. He just wanted his little guy to be okay. Luke just wanted to be with his son and would spend the rest of his life being Lucas' dad. He just found out about him. Lucas had to be okay. I will do anything for him, he thought. I will never take one second with him for granted, he told himself. Luke was going to appreciate every single second with his son.
Chapter 12
Jessica
Jessica could feel her hands shake as they got out of the car at the hospital. She felt like she was going to be sick. Her baby needed to be okay. She would do anything for him to be okay. Her sister had been so upset on the phone that Jessica could barely understand her. She had no idea how bad the accident was or how badly her son had been hurt. He ha
d to meet his dad and know that his dad loved him. She felt like she was going to pass out.
Luke grabbed onto her, and they ran into the hospital doors. Renee was sitting in a chair with her head in her lap, crying. They ran up to her and knelt down in front of her.
“Renee, is he okay?” Jessica asked. “Are you okay?”
Jessica took Renee by the shoulders, pulled her up, and hugged her.
“Talk to me. Are you okay?” Jessica asked.
“Yes, I didn't mean it. I love him. He has to be okay. You know how much I love him, right? You know I would give my life for him. Why wasn't it me that got hurt and not him?” Renee said, through her tears.
“What happened? Where is he?” Jessica asked.
“They took him back there and told me to wait out here,” Renee said. “They said they would come and get me as soon as they could. He was awake in the ambulance. They had his head and body strapped down. He kept telling me to stop crying. He has to be okay, Jess.”
Luke jumped up and went to the desk. Jessica held her sister. A few minutes later, Luke walked back over to them.
“The woman is going to go back and check to make sure they want us back there,” Luke said.
He bent down in front of Renee. She looked into his eyes.
“Do you know? Did she tell you?” Renee asked.
“Yes, she told me,” Luke said. “Thank you, Renee.”
“For what?” she said, with a confused look on her face.
“For everything,” he said, as he wrapped his arms around her. “Thank you for yesterday and telling me to talk to her. Thank you for being there when she was having the baby. Thank you for being there when I wasn't there.”
“You didn't know, Luke,” Renee said. “I told her to tell you a million times. You didn't know.”
