To Be Loved By You - A Bradley Bradshaw Story

Eggs Over Easy

Author's Note: Hey there guys! So here is the next chapter of To Be Loved By You. I just have to say it is so good to be back! I am loving writing this story again and getting to spend time with Brad and Thea has been great! Thank you to everyone who commented, voted, and added this story to their reading lists since I posted the last chapter; it means so much!

You guys don't know it because you can't see my story outline, but we are building up to the climax and finale of story one for Brad and Thea. So I wanted to take this chapter and give you guys some spicy time, some fluff, and another little look into Brad's past. 

Before I let you read though, I just wanted to clarify that this chapter takes place the same weekend as the previous two chapters. So these last three chapters have kind of been a three-parter and this is part three!

I hope you guys like this chapter!

It had started innocently enough. She had found in the weeks since she had started sleeping next to Bradley that her favorite way to fall asleep was with her head securely resting in the crook of his neck as she traced lines between the freckles adorning his chest.

That night had been no different.

She had almost lulled herself to sleep when her eye caught sight of a cluster of freckles just to the side of his belly button. Without thinking about it, her finger trailed down his abdomen to draw an invisible line from one to the next to the next...

When his body jerked from the force of a deep inhale, she saw another freckle above the sheet that hung low on his hips.

Thea just couldn't help herself. Her finger moved toward that lone freckle.

With a hitch in his raspy voice, Bradley said, "If you want to sleep tonight you'll stop."

She ceased her movement, thinking through her options. They had already indulged in each other many times that day and each time had been just as intense as it always was. It had been perfect, a mixture of too much pleasure and not enough to sate her desire to be close to him. It had exhilarated and exhausted her and she wanted more.

It was just as she had decided to test her aviator's resolve when a yawn tore itself from her throat. He chuckled beneath her and she started to bring her finger back toward the skin that usually lulled her to sleep.

The mischievousness in his voice as he muttered, "Good girl," made her trailing fingers stop on their journey. When she brought her gaze to his face, he was smirking down at her.

Smiling up at him sweetly, she let her hand travel back toward his navel. A line from one freckle to the next lowered slowly toward that one lone freckle again. She never let her gaze drop from his.

When she reached her destination, she circled the freckle and fought a smirk of her own as Brad's breathing quickened. As his eyes slipped shut, she let her hand move under the cool material of her sheets so she could gently cup his hardening length.

"Thea." Her name was nothing more than a moan as he took a deep breath.

Now she allowed herself to smirk. "Yes, sir?"

He twitched in her hand and she knew they would not be getting the sleep she had craved just moments before.

When he opened his eyes there was a fire in them and something tightened in her belly. His hand found hers beneath the sheets and guided her hand up and down the length of him. He sucked in a sharp breath as he bucked against her. His hand fell away from hers and she continued to move just as he'd shown her.
