“Jake,” she panted as her climax spiraled upward. “God…” She buried her head in his shoulder to muffle her loud, sensual moans as she came.
Jake couldn’t hold back anymore. He groaned right behind her, released his cum into her—made them one.
For a moment, they held each other like they were frozen together.
He was the first to ease back. He wanted to look at her. He smiled. “You’re mine now, Marie. I hope you won’t regret it.”
She sputtered then smiled. “I never will, Jake.” She stared into his eyes. “I love you.”
He pressed his forehead to hers. “I know this is a hell of a way to ask. I should probably get on my knees but for some reason saying what I want to say and being inside you at the same time seems right.” He bussed her lips with a light touch. “I love you, Marie. I’ll love you forever. I have since the first time I saw you.” He swallowed, taken by the light that shone in her eyes. “This is a formal plea from my heart,” he whispered. “Will you marry me?”
Her eyes watered but this time Jake knew it was from happiness. “Yes, Jake. And I’m in for the forever part too.”
He wrapped his arms around her and held her tight then took the lips she offered to him. “I want to get married as soon as I can get the paperwork done, if that’s okay with you.”
She nodded. “When are you going to tell Jesse?”
He smiled. A cool breeze blew. He pulled her blouse closed. “As soon as we’re dressed and out of here. He should be home from school soon.”
“Or sooner…” A voice on the wind muttered.
Jake jumped. Marie laughed. She wrapped her arms around him and laid a big kiss on his lips. “To forever, Jake.”
Jake grinned like a kid. He knew a gleam shone in his eyes. “To forever, then.”
He kissed her. When their bodies parted, he dressed her and she, him. And Jake knew he’d never be alone again.
