First Crush, My Forever

Chapter 118

  By the time the sun starts dropping, my whole body feels calmer than it has in days. My hormones are not pulling me all over the place. My mind feels clear. My skin feels warm. My chest settles for the first time in a while.

  Right before dinner, my mom texts. They want KK for the night for a sleepover. I read the text out loud and the timing hits me right in the stomach. Taytum looks at me from across the living room with this quiet heat that runs under the surface.

  "You okay with that?" I ask Taytum.

  She smiles. "Yeah. Are you?"

  I am. More than okay. I text my mom that it's fine for them to get KK. I laugh because her response is immediate and she says good because they are pulling in the driveway. I help KK pack a small bag, kiss her cheek, and hold her close before my parents get her for the night. Taytum hugs and kisses KK as I open the door for my parents.

  Once their car pulls out of the driveway I go to the living room and stretch out on the couch. Taytum sits beside me, her hand on my thigh while grabbing the tv remote and puts it on a random channel as we start talking. We half talk, half watch the TV that neither of us cares about because my mind is elsewhere.

  I look over at her and she already knows something shifted as she looks at me. Her eyes drop to my mouth, then back up then her eyes move over me slowly. Warm. Steady. My stomach flips.

  "You look good today. You do everyday but I mean you look better," she says.

  "I feel really good," I say. "Better than I've felt in weeks." I bite my lip as I'm looking at her.

  "You good?" she asks softly.

  I nod, but it's slow. Intentional. "I want you."

  Her whole body reacts before she speaks. A tiny inhale. Shoulders tightening. Eyes going darker. "Yeah?" she says, almost under her breath.

  I shift closer until my knee brushes her hip. "And I want the vibrator."

  Taytum's lips part just a little like she's about to say something, but she doesn't. Instead she reaches up and cups my jaw. Her fingers are warm and steady and it sends a shiver straight through me.

  "Come here," she whispers.

  I lean in and she kisses me slowly. Not rushed. Not frantic. Just a deep, hungry pull that hits right in my chest. Her tongue slides against mine and the kiss changes. It gets heavier, hotter. She tilts my head and kisses me deeper like she's been starving for this.

  I climb into her lap without thinking. My belly presses against her front and she holds me like she's scared to squeeze too tight but still wants me close. Her hands slide under my shirt, palms warm on my stomach, moving up my sides, touching me everywhere she can reach. It makes me gasp into her mouth.

  "Taytum," I breathe against her lips.

  She kisses me again, harder this time. Her teeth graze my bottom lip and my whole body tightens. Her hands roam my back, then slip lower, grabbing me by the hips and pulling me tighter to her. I can feel how worked up she is. It just feeds mine.

  "You sure?" she asks against my mouth. Her voice is low and steady but her breathing isn't.

  I nod and breathe in. "I want you." My voice shakes a little but it is steady underneath. "And... I want you to use the vibrator on me. I want all of it now."

  Taytum groans, quiet but real. Her hand slides between us and pushes my hair away from my face. Then she kisses me again, even deeper, tongue slow and thick and greedy. Every stroke of her mouth shoots straight down my spine.
