***COMPLETED*** Around the World and Back [A Patty Walters Story]

Chapter 31: "I wasn't mad with that wake-up call."

*** Ronnie's POV ***

Britt and I spent the last few days apart, even though I said I'd move in with her. I had to fly back home and pack up the rest of my things, and take care of some things with my now former roommate.

I had told her that my flight was landing sometime in the afternoon, but I had gotten an early flight so I could surprise her.

When the Uber arrived at her apartment complex, I got all my bags out and carried them up to the second floor one-by-one. I had five suitcases and four duffel bags - a majority of my clothes were already in Britt's closet.

Smirking to myself, I silently unlocked her door with the key she had given me and moved all my bags inside. When I was finished, I slipped my shoes off and silently walked down the hallway to her room.

She was still sleeping peacefully cuddled under the covers, and it made me smile.

I sat down in the space between her and the edge of the bed and placed my hand on her head as I stroked her hair gently, leaning forward to place a kiss on her forehead.

She opened up her eyes and then sat up quickly, flinging her arms around my neck as she climbed into my lap.

"Ronnie!" She said with a laugh as she pulled away, kissing me. "Your flight wasn't supposed to land until 4!"

"It was always an early flight," I laughed as I wrapped my arms around her waist. "I wanted to surprise you and get an early one."

Britt stroked my cheek gently as she leaned in and kissed me again, licking my lips and tugging my bottom one slowly. The only sounds that could be heard in the room were our lips softly smacking against each other.

She pushed me back on the bed and straddled me, not breaking our kiss. My hands traveled up her shirt and rested on her hips, drawing little circles into them.

"I'm definitely surprised," she giggled as she pulled away, catching her breath as she rested her forehead against mine. "I'm so happy that you're finally here permanently."

"It's amazing," I whispered as I kissed her chin. "What did you want to show me?"

"Mhm, I can show you later," she muttered as she ran her hands down my chest. "I've been almost a week without you, and I can't take anymore."

I gently pushed her off of me and flipped us over so that I was on top.

"Say no more," I chuckled as I hovered over her, slipping my hand into her gym shorts and panties, pushing them down. "God, I missed you."

Her hands pushed down my sweatpants and boxers roughly and quickly, her fingernails ghosting against my thighs and making me shiver.

"Somebody's eager," I teased as I kissed down her neck, sucking on the spot right below her chin. "Missed that, too."

"Hm, I fucking missed you," she grumbled as she tilted her head to the side, her hands fumbling for the bottom of my shirt as her cold fingers traveled up my abdomen. "So much."

My muscles fluttered under her touch, and I pulled away from her neck to slip my shirt off. She eagerly took off her shirt and reached behind her back to unclip her bra, throwing it to the floor.

Almost instantly, my hands made their way to her breasts as I pushed myself inside of her. As soft pants left her mouth, I gently squeezed her breasts.

She slammed one of her feet into the bed, wrapping her other leg around my waist as her nails drug across my shoulder.

"Jesus," she breathed out with a stiffened laugh as she tilted her head back against the pillow. "This is hot."

Her body pressed against mine as I thrust inside of her in a soft in-and-out motion. I groaned, biting down on her collarbone when she scratched the back of my head.

"Oh, god, Britt," I shivered with a chuckle as one of my hands rubbed her thigh. "That...whoa."

"I know," she giggled as she did it again, causing me to groan again. "It's your weakness."

I held her body against mine, putting my arm under her knee and holding her up as I pushed myself all the way inside of her.

She nearly screamed, her hands flying to my shoulders and clinging on tightly as her leg crashed against my waist.

"Warn me next time," she giggled as she groaned loudly. "Fucking Christ, I'm getting close."

"Me too, I've been thinking about this all week," I admitted, kissing back up her neck to her lips as I tugged on her bottom one. "I missed you."

"I missed you," she breathed out, pressing her hips up against mine and spreading her legs slightly. "Ronnie..."

I pressed her legs down against the bed and held myself up on them slightly as I repeated my in-and-out motions a little faster.

Her fingers raked over the top of my head again, and that sent me over the edge. With a loud groan, I came inside of her, and she followed my lead.

I watched as her body hit the bed, her chest rising and falling as she laughed.

"Whoa," she giggled, running a hand through her hair. "I wasn't mad with that wake-up call."

I laid down on my side next to her with a laugh, propping myself up on my elbow.

"I knew you wouldn't be," I winked as I kissed her. "What did you want to show me?"

She pointed across the room to the second dresser that was now sitting next to hers.

"I got that for you!" She grinned. "You can have your own dresser, and I cleared a lot of space in my closet for you."

"Britt," I frowned as I looked at the dresser and then back at her. "You didn't have to do all of that."

She shushed me with a kiss to the lips and looked up at me.

"I wanted to, Ronnie," she muttered, kissing my chin. "You need a place for your things. And you're my boyfriend, so of course, I'm going to do these things for you."

My cheeks grew hot as I kissed her again, my hand resting on her hip.

"You are the sweetest ever," I muttered. "And I don't deserve you."

"I feel the same about you," she said with a soft laugh. "I guess we're both lucky."
