Cherry

Chapter 22

Ethan

"Are you sure you have to leave?" Cherry asks me as her glistening eyes stare into mine, blocking me from leaving as she stands in the middle of the doorway.

"Well, I do need clean clothes, so yes," I chuckle.

She places her hand on my arm and slowly trails it down to my hand and says, "Can't you wait a few minutes?"

I place my hands on her waist and stare down at her as she looks up at me seductively. I know what she wants, but I want to hear her say it. So, I ask, "What do you have in mind?"

She runs her hand down my chest slowly, all while keeping her eyes locked on mine. Her hand makes its way to the top of my pants and rests it there as she says, "You know exactly what I want."

Fuck. I gulp at her words and the way her eyes are looking up at me in the sexiest way possible. She shuts the front door quickly, and without any hesitation, she goes in for a kiss. Her soft lips perfectly intertwine with mine just as I move her against the door, her back colliding with the hardwood. As we continue to taste each other, she lightly moans into my mouth whenever I grab a handful of her breast.

The sounds she makes from me touching her always sound so heavenly. One moan escaping her mouth is enough to send me over the edge.

I can already feel myself already getting hard for her, and I know she feels my length against her. I press harder into her, and in between our steamy kisses, I sigh, "Fuck, the things you do to me, Cherry."

"Let's go upstairs," she moans in response.

"I want to," I kiss her one more time and pull away, probably the hardest thing I've ever done. I place my hand on the door and lean over her as I say, "I need to leave, but let's save this for when I get back. Deal?"

"Fine," she rolls her eyes playfully as a smile appears on her face. She steps to the side and opens the door for me.

"I'll be back," I say and kiss her on the forehead, leaving the beautiful girl with luscious, fiery hair behind.

I hope my hard goes down before I see Wyatt.

Once I finally make it to Wyatt and I's house, I open the door and find him sitting on the couch with Olive. I haven't seen her since that night at the bonfire, but I knew I was probably going to cross paths with her again since she and my best friend are dating. It's just... weird because I know what she's done to Cherry, and I'll never like her. But, I don't even want to like her. She dated Cherry and I don't like the thought of anyone knowing her the way I do.

I don't even think they heard me come inside, because their tongues are too busy being down each other's throats.

I cough on demand and say, "Get a room."

They both jump and look at me, as I caught them off guard.

"It's about time you came home. I haven't seen you in forever, man," Wyatt says as he pulls away from Olive and readjusts himself on the couch. He puts his arm around her as she just stares at me like I'm some freak in the circus.

"Yeah, I'm just getting some clothes and heading back to Cherry's," I explain as I begin to head into my bedroom.

I was hoping it would just be Wyatt here so we could catch up. He and I used to be so close, but with me spending all of my time with Cherry and working, and he constantly being up Olive's ass, we haven't talked in what feels like forever. This place doesn't even feel like my home anymore; Cherry's house feels more like home at this point.
