Second Chances

Part Eleven

I froze. I didn’t move as I heard him walk towards me. My heart was aching for him.

“Panda turn around please look at me”

I turned around but didn’t look up from the ground not being able to look into his milky brown eyes that could read me like a book. When he placed his finger under my chin slowly lifting up my head forcing me to look up at him I ran my eyes over every inch of him taking every part of him in to memorize this moment if he disappears again. He looked down into my eyes as his hand moved to cupping my cheek caressing my skin with his thumb. I leaned into his touch the tingles I felt with Jarrod didn’t compare to the sparks that went off all over my body with my one true love. I closed my eyes savouring the feeling of his skin once again on mine. I let out a soft gasp when I felt his lips press gently against mine. I wrapped my arms around his neck pull his body against mine as the kiss instantly turned fierce with built up desire and passion. He kept stepping forward makin me step backwards until my back was firmly pressed against a tree. He ran his fingers through my hair then down my back to the backside of my thighs before he gripped tightly lifting me up. I snaked my legs around his waist as he ran his tongue across my bottom lip asking for permission to deepen the kiss. I gave him access without a doubt and he didn’t waste any time exploring every part of my mouth with his sweet tongue before twirling his with mine. It felt so good to be touched by him again, it was a touch I didn’t know I was craving. I felt more alive than I have since he’s been gone. He pulled away slowly letting us both catch our breathe as we breathed heavily. My heart raced in my chest the fire that was once running through my body was put out.

He rested his forehead against mine not ready to give me space yet and I wasn’t going to complain the love of my life was standing in front of me again.

“Come on Grizzly let’s go back to the cabin I have to check on Jarrod.”

He smiled kissing my forehead before stepping back holding out his hand. I eagerly took his hand intertwining our fingers together. I lead the way back to the cabin in a peaceful silence. When I was about to step out from the treelines to where the cabin was I heard moans. I tilted my head wondering who was in the cabin. There is no way Jarrod would be making such noises. I let go of Asher’s hand and before he could blink I was on the porch of the cabin with the door wide open. What I saw scared me for life.

“Jarrod what the fuck?”

I screamed covering my eyes not unable to see Jarrod on top of a stunning girl with red hair. I heard a thump and uncovered my eyes bursting out in laughter when I saw Jarrod on the floor covering his man parts with a pillow and the girl covering herself with a blanket.

“Okay darling you can stop laughing at me now!”

Jarrod scowled at me I caught my breath slowly calming down.

“Who is this?”

I smiled when I felt arms wrap around me from behind knowing instantly it was Asher as I leaned back against him letting him support me. He kissed the back of my head chuckling at the scene before him.

“Well who is that holding you?”

Jarrod shot back at me raising an eyebrow. I rolled my eyes.

“I asked first!”

It was his turn to roll his eyes.

“How old are you Nikki?”

I gave him the ‘bird’ causing everybody to laugh. The beautiful redhead sat up and smiled at me.

“Hi Nikki I am Taylor, Jarrod’s fiancee”

My mouth dropped open.

“I thought you said she died how the hell am I seeing her right now...wait”

I turned around looking at Asher he looked down letting me go.

“You died….?”

I whispered afraid of the answer I was about to hear.
