Book 2: What Happens Here - Chicago (What Happens Here Series)

Chapter 24 - Ethan

After dinner, Ethan's mother suggested that he give Jasmine a tour of their home. After the tour, and with the final stop being his old bedroom, he'd pulled Jasmine inside the room and closed the door. She had laughed, until he'd pressed her back up against the door, and kissed her until they were both breathless.... then her laughter had turned into a quiet moan. Which had his erection stiffening against his thigh....as usual.

Once he'd reluctantly broken the kiss, Ethan pressed his forehead against Jasmine's and stared into her beautiful brown eyes. Seeing the huge smile on her face, and the playful gleam in her eyes, he pulled back and asked, "What's that look for?" Laughing Jasmine said, "You seem to be pretty skilled at pulling women into your bedroom Mr. Daniels." And cocking her head to the side, she narrowed her eyes at him as she said, "Just how many women have you sneaked up here?" Smiling, Ethan said, "Besides my mom, and my sister Carmen, you are the only other woman that has ever been in my bedroom." When a look of disbelief crossed her face, he held up the boy scout sign, and said, "Scout's honor", which pulled another laugh from her.

When Jasmine glanced around the room that appeared to be frozen in time from his teen years, he stepped to the side and allowed her to explore his space. Seeing her in his childhood room felt like a dream, and in that moment, Ethan wished that he'd met her when they were younger, so that he could have sneaked her into his bedroom window, so they could have explored each other. He had to smother the smile that tugged at the corners of his lips, but he'd done so too late because she'd noticed.

Shaking her head, Jasmine said, "I know that look. Do I even want to know what you were just thinking?" Allowing the smile that he'd tried to hide to spread across his face, Ethan said, "I think you can figure it out, but I'll tell you anyway." As he slowly stalked over to her, he watched as her breath quickened, and her nipples hardened through the thin material of her jumpsuit. Flashes of being inside of her on the plane hours before flashed in his mind, and as if she shared in his thoughts, she bit her bottom lip before saying, "You are so damn nasty."

Pulling her into his arms, he stroked her lips with the pad of his thumb as he said, "No...I'm greedy.... remember?" And lowering his head, he covered her mouth with his, savoring the taste of peach cobbler on her lips. He groaned into her mouth, and said, "I can't wait to be inside of you again." Pulling back, Jasmine smiled up at him as she said, "I know.... but you'll have to wait until we get home."

Hearing Jasmine referring to his brownstone as "home" caused Ethan's heart to damn near skip a beat, and he couldn't help the huge smile that spread across his face. "Did you just say...home?" Shaking her head before rolling her eyes, Jasmine smiled, as she said, "Did I? I don't remember..." Ethan laughed as he said, "Oh...really? Maybe this will jog your memory!" He began tickling her, and as she laughed and squirmed in his arms to get away, he heard a slight knock on his bedroom door.

Jerking at the sound, Jasmine's eyes were wide as she covered her mouth and in a hushed whisper she said, "Oh no, they're gonna think that we're in here doing stuff.... like... nasty stuff." Chuckling, Ethan said, "Well, it's a little too late for that now, because based on what you told Stephanie on the plane earlier, you're already carrying my babies. So...maybe we should let my parents know, that way they won't mind us getting... nasty." He winked at her, and chuckled when her eyes widened as she playfully hit his arm and in a hushed voice said, "No! Absolutely not!" The knock sounded once again, and with a playful smack to Jasmine's ass, which caused her to yelp right before desire flashed in her eyes, Ethan chuckled, and after shifting the very hard erection in his pants, he pulled the door open.

At seeing the smirk on his brother's face as he leaned up against his doorframe, Ethan groaned when Caden said, "I'm telling mom that you sneaked a girl in your room Ethan!" Chuckling, Ethan pulled his brother into the room, and after a brief wrestling match that had Jasmine laughing, and that had their father yelling... "Boys! Stop it before you break something!", Ethan laughed as he said, "You're still such a brat." Smiling at his brother Ethan said, "Hey, are you planning to go to New York for mom's charity event?"
