  The bedroom was another story. We’d hardly kept things slow there. He’d been devouring me every night and every second of it had been exquisitely delicious. It didn’t help that I let him have me anytime he wanted me, which seemed to be most of the time we were together.

  Setting up a date for all of us to be in the same room together had proven more difficult over the last few weeks than one might expect. I’d actually scheduled a quiet dinner for all of us at home last week, but Billy had been called away by the paper to photograph the scene of a gang shooting downtown a few hours before Toby was expected to show up.

  We’d canceled, and rescheduling had been a nightmare so far.

  And yet, Toby didn’t seem to mind.

  Which partly bothered me and partly didn’t.

  He was doing a good job of keeping me distracted.

  We’d come back together like a couple of flames joining to make a raging passionate bonfire, our flesh the only thing keeping us apart and keeping us from bursting into a fiery, exploding collision.

  Everything about him left me breathless and begging for more.

  Now that he knew he had my complete consent, he’d unleashed on me fully, taking me in every room of his beautiful house, in the back of his car parked on a cliff overlooking the sparkling lights of the city, and most thrillingly, in his beloved truck, now beautifully restored and just begging for us to break it in all over again.

  And we did.

  Over and over, he’d fucked me on the bench seat, till the sun came up, rising like a beacon over the horizon, throwing red and orange light over our naked skin as we clung to each other like teenagers.

  Being in his arms had been like coming home, to being bathed in the past, suspended in some ethereal realm between now and then.

  I’d run home at dawn, just in time to get ready for work and do it all over again.

  Breathless.

  That was my normal state of being these days and it seemed my heart was racing just a little bit faster the deeper I let myself get with Toby.

  We’d been having a lot of fun these last few weeks. Where that led remained to be seen, but the journey was definitely keeping me enchanted…

  Thirteen

  Toby

  I told Haley I was throwing a pool party, but I hadn’t invited anyone else.

  We spent as much time as possible together the last few weeks, and yet, I still couldn’t get enough of her. I felt as if we were making up for lost time.

  A lot of lost time.

  I felt like a fucking fool.

  It was all my fault. All a misunderstanding.

  Billy was gay.

  How stupid had I been?

  All these years I’d lost, gone, wasted.

  Years I could have spent buried inside of Haley, instead of wasting away with Jessica.

  Haley was magic. Her body felt like home to me.

  She’d been the first girl I’d really explored with and it was like she was imprinted on my soul. Everything she did was perfect. The way she kissed me, the way her hands ran over my skin, the way she fit around me, the way she did that thing with her hips that drove me right over the edge…

  It was as if she had a blueprint to my body, to my cock, to my brain, and most dangerously, to my heart. I’d locked my heart away a long time ago and I wasn’t ready to open it up just yet.

  If I did it for anyone, I knew it would be Haley, of course. She’d gotten so far under my skin, I knew it was inevitable. I wasn’t stupid. The writing was on the wall.

  But dammit, if I wasn’t thrown a big fucking loop when she told me about Billy…still in her life, after all this time.

  I’d have to find a way to mend things with him and that’s what was holding me back.

  It was a man thing, and it was a man thing that required me to be humble, and I was never very good at wearing that hat.

  As I floated on my back in the pool, waiting for Haley to arrive, I wondered how much longer I could put off the inevitable, without appearing to be a complete and utter asshole.

  I wasn’t ready to admit to Haley that being humble didn’t come easy, so I’d been throwing a wrench in her plans each time she’d tried to schedule a get together. I knew I couldn’t hold her back too much longer, but my ‘pool party’ was at least buying me tonight.

  I was looking forward to being alone with her.

  It had quickly become my favorite activity.

  My cock swelled in anticipation of once again sliding into her sweet velvety warmth, as I floated lazily and naked in the pool.

  I wasn’t worried about neighbors seeing me, because I’d installed a very tall fence as soon as I’d married Jessica. Well, as soon as she joined that stupid television show, that is. I’d learned very quickly what that kind of publicity brought and I didn’t want any part of it.

  I’d always tried to stay out of the spotlight, at the very least insisting my privacy at home as sacred.

  Jessica didn’t feel the same, and she’d have been happy to have her bikini clad body plastered all over TMZ but I wasn’t into that. She’d fought me hard about the fence, but that was one battle she lost.

  Thankfully, she hadn’t contacted me in weeks. And Coach loved the extra publicity we were getting in the newspaper and online, thanks to Haley’s work.

  Things were getting better, in a big way, and it was all because of Haley.

  Since we’d had our talk and I realized how wrong I was to leave her all those years ago, I couldn’t help but spend a fair amount of time wondering where we’d be now if all that shit hadn’t gone down.

  I was pretty sure we’d be married and she’d have popped out a few mini-me’s by then.

  And yet, we’d never know.

  Because I’d been a complete and utter idiot.

  I did what I always did at this point, which is chalk it all up to the ignorance of youth. It was the only way I could live with the realization of just how tremendously I’d fucked up.

  I was amazed at the universe’s way of righting itself, at the same time. It only reinforced my belief of fate.

  Puffy white clouds lazily drifted through the sky above as I enjoyed the warmth of the sun, my thoughts drifting all over the place.

  “Where’s everyone at?” Haley’s voice broke through the silence as she walked near the other end of the pool.

  “Hi, babe!” I greeted her with a smile. “About that…”

  I swam over to her, hanging onto the cement edge as I bobbed in the water.

  “Would you believe everyone cancelled?”

  “No,” she laughed. “It’s fine, but I was looking forward to playing Pictionary.”

  “I’m sure we can come up with better things to do.” I splashed some water on her legs. “Come in.”

  “No, I didn’t bring a suit,” she said. “You come out.”

  I threw my leg up and over, then climbed out of the pool.

  “We don’t need suits.”

  Staring into her eyes, I dropped my swim trunks to the wet cement. She peered down slowly, then back up to me, her green eyes sparkling in the sunlight.

  “I don’t know…”

  “Come on. It’ll be fun. I promise.”

  “You going to let me take some nude photos of you?” she teased.

  “Sure. Why not?” I flexed my right arm, making the bicep bulge.

  “Okay,” she laughed. “You’re sure no one else is coming over?”

  “Just us today. I want to spend all day with you before the big game tomorrow.”

  “You’re going to do great.”

  “I know,” I said, flashing a smile and brushing a kiss across her luscious lips.

  She set her purse and camera bag down on a nearby table and turned back to me with a smile.

  If she wanted to take private nude photos of me, who was I to disagree?

  “You coming in?” I asked, winking at her.

  She laughed and nodded and I dove into the water.

  When I surfaced, I opened my
eyes and saw her stripping out of her clothes. She was the most beautiful creature I’d ever laid eyes on and I couldn’t believe she let me touch her. My cock stirred beneath the water, fully erect, fully ready to sink into her.

  “You’re beautiful, baby” I said, flashing her a smile as I tread water.

  Completely naked, her body a vision of pure and perfect beauty, she stood at the edge of the pool, staring down at me.

  “Can you dive?” I asked.

  She smiled mischievously before diving headfirst into the water, barely making ripples in the water. Her naked skin brushed against mine like satin as she came up.

  “Hey, you,” she said in a hushed tone while treading water directly in front of me.

  I leaned forward and kissed her wet lips. We kissed softly, bobbing in the water as the sun began its descent in the sky above. Time stopped around us, just as it did every time I laid my hands on her.

  “Come over here,” I said then swam to the shallow end of the pool.

  She followed, standing next to me in the chest-high water. Our eyes met, knowing, wanting. I tossed the wet strands of hair out of my eyes with a flick of my head. Unable to resist any longer, I picked her up and set her on the edge of the pool, her legs still halfway in the water.

  I stared up at her as I stood between her thighs, caressing them softly. She leaned back, propped up by her arms behind her

  As she watched, I bent and gently kissed one thigh then the other. Her thighs fell open with a moan, as my tongue and lips made their way closer to her pulsing center.

  She inhaled sharply, edging a bit closer to the edge and giving me even better access. My hands on her waist, I worshipped her beauty, tasting her, devouring her.

  Her soft moans filled the air as the cool water lapped at my chest and I lavished every inch of her delicate, tender flesh with kisses and licks.

  With each one, blood rushed between my legs, filling my cock. She sat up and wrapped her arms around my head, pulling me closer to her pussy.

  “Yes,” she moaned, her thighs tightening around my shoulders.

  Her body shook as I held onto her as she crashed over the edge, her writhing hips flailing in ecstasy. She relaxed, lifting her head and staring into my eyes.

  I walked to the left a few steps then leapt out of the water. Still dripping, I offered her my hand. She got to her feet, looking around nervously.

  “Should we go inside?”

  “No one can see us,” I said, leading her to a reclining outdoor chair near the table.

  “Are you sure?”

  I laid down on the chair, my cock throbbing painfully.

  “Come here,” I commanded.

  She crawled onto my lap, her pussy rubbing against the shaft of my cock. I groaned as she ground against me, her wetness sliding against my pulsing cock.

  I stared up her face framed by that bright blue sky spotted with fluffy white clouds.

  I reached up, sinking my fingers into her blonde waves and pulling her down to me. Her lips were soft and warm, so welcoming and opening and she kissed me back with the same hunger that was raging through my veins.

  She was absolute perfection.

  Slowly, she lifted her hips and slid her warmth around my raging cock, her body inviting and deliciously gripping me, sliding up and down, until I was growling with passion for her.

  My hard cock slid into her tight pussy so effortlessly. We fit together like we were made for each other. The rest of the world fell away as she rode me up and down, palms on my chest to steady herself.

  Because of the angle of the reclining chair, it was easy to lean forward and take one of her hard nipples between my lips. I sucked at it as she rode me faster and more furiously.

  She slowed down, still grinding against my body, riding my cock skillfully. I loved the way she made me feel, the way she felt wrapped around me so tightly.

  Nobody had ever made me feel the way Haley did.

  And I liked it. So much. Loved, even.

  My chest rose and fell quickly as I struggled to get air into my lungs. The friction built up as she fucked me even harder, threatening to send me exploding inside of her.

  “Yes,” she moaned, her back arching above me, her creamy breasts rising and falling between us.

  She held herself up with her hands on my thighs behind her. I glanced down. The sight of my cock sliding into her pussy looked so fucking hot.

  All of a sudden, she stopped.

  “What are you doing?” I asked urgently, my breath ragged and raw.

  “Hold on,” she said as she climbed off me.

  What the hell?

  I watched as she walked to the table and retrieved her camera. A moment later, she had straddled my body and slipped my cock back into her pussy.

  Not having the tight, warm goodness for even a few seconds made it more pleasurable when I penetrated her eager, willing flesh again.

  “I want to take a photo of your face while you’re coming,” she said, grinding on my cock.

  “I’m not sure…,” I said, pushing my hips up and sinking deeper into her.

  “Come on. No one else will see it. I want it for me. Please?”

  “Fine,” I said, willing to agree to anything if she made me come. “Just fuck me!” I growled.

  She lifted the camera and snapped a few shots while riding me.

  Her pussy squeezed my cock tighter as my cock swelled inside of her.

  “Fuck, fuck, fuck,” I groaned, getting so close.

  “Yeah, baby, come for me,” she said, her voice pure sex, as she snapped a few more photos.

  “Fuck!” I screamed, not caring if the neighbors heard me.

  She continued pressing the shutter as I pushed deeper, my cock exploding inside of her.

  “Fuck,” I growled, falling back on the recliner.

  She moved the camera and smiled, her face full of joy as she kissed me hard.

  “You have got to let me see those photos,” I said, reaching for the camera.

  “Later,” she said, putting the camera on the table next to us, my cock still twitching inside of her.

  “Come on,” I said.

  “Noooo,” she said, wiggling her hips, my cock beginning to swell again.

  “Have you still not had enough?” I asked, pushing my hips up towards her, grinding my cock inside of her warmth again.

  “Never, baby,” she whispered, smiling down at me like a tempestuous goddess.

  “Me, either,” I growled, my cock, still fully hard and once again throbbing hungrily, pressing up into her as I grabbed her hips and flipped her over beneath me, sinking into her over and over again as we blocked out the world and melted into each other.

  Haley

  After my photos of the Browns went viral, Scott demanded even more shots from me.

  I took the opportunity to get out of the newsroom and spend some time alone with Toby for an entire day.

  “I don’t get it,” Toby said as he drove us toward Hocking Hills State Park. It was a few hours away, near Columbus, and we’d spent many hours there as kids, hiking and making out. “What do the park and football have to do with each other?”

  “Well, for one, the park is far away from the city. I’m dying to get away. And, well I just want to go there with you again.”

  “It’s been a long time,” he said, keeping his eyes on the curved road ahead. He was so handsome today, like every day, but today, he was relaxed and there was a sparkle in his eye now. I watched his fingers grip the wheel, his forearms flexing under the rolled up sleeves of his shirt.

  “We used to have a lot of fun there,” I said, my gaze trained on his profile.

  He glanced over at me with a grin on his face.

  “You’re something else, Haley.”

  “Are you saying you don’t like spending time with me?”

  “No, I do. A lot. It scares me sometimes how much.”

  “Wow. Should I be worried?”

  “No, it’s
not bad. It’s just…” He glanced over at me again. “You’re special. You always have been.”

  I smiled as he returned his eyes to the road. The last three weeks had been incredible. It had all started that night on the field with him racing toward me, and it hadn’t slowed down since then. It felt like we’d picked up where we left off ten years ago.

  Since that moment, we’d gotten a lot closer, at least sexually. I still wanted to ask questions about his ex-wife, but I ignored them, content to let things be. I didn’t want to appear as if I was pushing for us to define things, label things. I knew I should slow things down but it wasn’t easy with him sitting there like that, looking like that, feeling like that.

  If I brought up relationships and everything too soon, he might spook. This was all overwhelming for both of us and I knew there was value in letting things unfold organically. As I stared out the passenger window at the beautiful country passing outside, I took a deep breath and vowed to let all that go and just enjoy the day.

  “Are you finally going to show me those photos you took at the pool the other day?”

  “Soon,” I said.

  “I can’t wait.”

  And I can’t wait to have you alone in the woods, I thought to myself with a smile on my face. My jaws were hurting because I’d been smiling so much.

  “It is good to get out into the country,” he said.

  “Yeah, I get so tired of the city sometimes.”

  “Why don’t you move?”

  “Work, I guess.”

  “That makes sense,” he nodded, as he downshifted as we approached the entrance of the state park.

  “Looks just the same as it used to,” I said.

  “It always will,” he smiled, reaching over and putting a warm hand on my knee after he parked. He gazed into my eyes and I couldn’t help but smile back.

  “You ready?” he asked.

  “Yeah. I’ve not been in a few years, but I have the perfect spot for some photos.”

  “As long as we don’t have to walk too far. I need to save my energy for the game this weekend.”

  “You’ll be fine,” I said, as we got out of the car. We walked down the nearest trail hand in hand, the trees swaying above us as they towered overhead.
