Avoiding Commitment (Avoiding #1)(32)
Author: K.A. Linde

The way he was touching her made it pretty obvious that he was having similar thoughts. He couldn’t get enough of her. The succulent taste of her, her supple br**sts in his hands, the way she was reacting to his every touch was sending him over the edge. He wasn’t one to resist temptation, and she felt so good. Not to mention she was practically throwing herself at him.

Lexi fumbled for his khaki shorts tugging at the difficult button. Her fingers missed the mark twice and she was getting frustrated. She kissed him hard on the lips, and then stood up commanding him to do the same. He undid the button for her, and watched as she slid to her knees taking his pants with her. His eyes widen when she didn’t stand back up and instead took all of him in her right hand, and began a gentle stroke. He couldn’t stop looking at her. The fluid motion of her hand as it hit the base and then pulled back up to the head. Then just as his eyes began to close from an overdrive of emotions, he felt her hot wet mouth close around him. Brushing her tongue around the tip a few times experimentally, she took the rest of him in her mouth and sucked making sure his entire dick was wet. His breathing turned ragged and heavy as she continued her work on him. He groaned as she hit every nerve perfectly.

He felt himself reaching cli**x, but he didn’t want to get there just yet. He wanted her to feel everything he was feeling in that moment. He wanted them to feel that amazing moment of bliss together. With all the energy he could muster, he pulled back from her astounding movements. Her brown eyes looked even bigger than normal as they looked up at him in confusion. She made it was way more difficult to force her to stop with the way she looked up at him like all she wanted to do was finish him off. He hadn’t thought he could be any more turned on, but after that look, his erection was almost painful.

Grabbing her by her shoulders, he pulled her up and kissed her lips passionately. All confusion was wiped from her face as his kiss clouded her thoughts. Never breaking from their kiss, he scooped her up into his arms and rested her back against the bench. He left a trail down her front as he reached her tiny black shorts, yanked them to her ankles, and then tossed them to the cement ground. He worked his way back up pulling her legs up around his waist as he lay over her.

Lexi stared mesmerized into his gorgeous cerulean eyes. She had dreamed of this moment for so long. Now that it was finally here, she was ever more turned on than she had ever imagined. His skin covered her body and she could feel him pressed into her inner thigh. She whimpered with desire for him. "Oh Jack," she muttered kissing his bottom lip. He moaned deep in his throat and adjusted his position over her.

"You want me Lex?" he asked speaking for the first time since his declaration.

"Oh yes…yes Jack I want you," she said swishing her h*ps so that she brushed her wetness against him.

He nuzzled down into her neck and then pushed into her. She instantly cried out in pleasure at the feel of him. He buried himself deep into her and enjoyed the feel of her clenching and unclenching her inner muscles around him. She waited patiently as he held that position. She couldn’t believe that after all that time, it was finally happening. He was with her. He was inside of her.

She moaned loudly as he shoved just a little bit harder into her. Then he began to set a slow languid pace. He was already close to the brink after the way she worked her mouth around him, and he was afraid with his overpowering desire for her that he would get there before her. She felt her body begin to flush as he continually pushed himself into her. They fit together perfectly. The feelings he sent throughout her body was unlike anything she had ever experienced.

As the waves of bliss continued coursing through her, she let her h*ps move with his adjusting her angle so that he hit all new places. Through pants, she managed to get out, "Jack…oh Jack…"

"Mmm…yes?" he asked kissing her forehead.

"Harder," she pleaded.

He groaned as she begged him. God, she was so f**king hot. She felt him give into her desires, and push into her harder and rougher. With the last few times they smacked their h*ps together; they came at the same moment. Jack pushed deep into her and hugged her tight to his chest as she cried out into the night air and arched her back. The orgasm that rocketed through their bodies left them instantly breathless and exhausted.

After a minute, Jack lifted himself onto his wobbly elbows, and began to stroke her hair back from her forehead. "That was amazing," she muttered weakly her eyes still closed.

"I should probably move, but you feel so damn good," he murmured kissing her on her swollen lips.

"Ugh," she grumbled as he rolled off of her and began fumbling around for their clothes. She could not believe that had just happened.

They quickly put their clothes back on, and began to walk hand-in-hand towards the beach house. There was no need for words after what had happened. Anything they needed to say to each other could be left for another day…another time. Everything was too blissful and almost surreal to break the mood with thoughts of tomorrow.

As they drew nearer, sounds and jeers emanated down the beach. They both knew what that meant: the guys had actually gone through with their skinny dipping plans. Trekking up through the sand away from the waterline, they attempted a stealthy entrance as they closed in on the beach house. It was clear that there were a few bobbing heads in the water, but the last thing they wanted after what had just happened was to get caught red handed. Jack held his hand out to stop her steps as they heard something crash against one of the surrounding bushes. A light just barely illuminated the entwined couple revealing Seth with one of the other bimbos he had brought along. Lexi breathed out in relief knowing that this meant Sandy was still likely fast asleep upstairs. Edging around the oblivious couple, Jack and Lexi sprinted up the stairs taking them two at a time and entered through the vacated den.

After standing silently in the den and verifying that there weren’t any lingering individuals awake, Jack kissed Lexi briefly on the mouth and then pushed her towards the bedroom. She surreptitiously entered the room to find Sandy snoring into the pink comforter. After she changed clothes, she crawled into bed and let her mind wander to the amazing night she had just had, and how close they had been to letting the cat out of the bag.

Just before slumber took her, she couldn’t help wondering what was going to happen in the morning. She had no idea what their relationships would be like after what they had done tonight.

She knew one thing though: nothing would ever be the same.

Chapter 11: Present

The balcony was spinning.

Lexi was almost certain that the balcony was spinning. She could feel it through her entire body. She was being swept up and away as if she was Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. Her feet were lifting off the ground. Or wait were her feet on the ground at all?

No, something was off. She couldn’t actually be lifting off the ground. Her conscious told her that things like that didn’t actually happen to people. Then why did she feel like she was spinning?

Then she remembered where she was. Ramsey’s sweet lips were covering her mouth. He was kissing her. She felt her mouth moving against his automatically. He tasted good. Surprisingly he didn’t taste like liquor though. He tasted of peppermints. God, she could keep kissing him all night with how good he tasted. She felt his tongue caress her body lip sending a shiver through her body. A low moan escaped her, and he reacted with more enthusiasm. He held tight against his body, and she could feel the rippling muscles in his chest pressed to her. Her mind was whirling a million miles a minute. Yet, there was something she was missing.

Party. Shots. Dancing. Balcony. Ramsey. Kissing. She couldn’t put her finger on it. There was something else she should remember.

Ramsey pulled back from her mouth to catch his breath. She gulped in two healing breaths attempting to clear her foggy head. He smiled at her sweetly and rubbed his thumb back and forth against her jaw line. It was a pleasant sensation, and Lexi’s thought process ceased again. She let him kiss her some more enjoying the tender emotions he was portraying with every touch. When he pulled back this time, her mind began to clear and she knew what she was forgetting.

Blue eyes.

Bright blue eyes staring at her from the balcony window. She could pick out those eyes anywhere. She shivered unintentionally as the spinning stopped. Everything came to a standstill as the realization hit her inebriated mind. Jack had seen her kissing Ramsey.

Oh God! Suddenly, a wave of nausea hit her harder than before, and she thought at any moment she might vomit. The last thing she had wanted was for Jack to see her with Ramsey. She hadn’t even meant to kiss Ramsey! She certainly didn’t like Ramsey.

In fact, he annoyed her. Sure he had been there for her moment of weakness, but that didn’t mean she liked him. And that certainly didn’t mean she wanted Jack to think she was whoring herself out when she was supposed to be visiting him. Not that he had been quite as kind earlier in the evening.

She quickly covered her mouth the dizziness returning. She would not throw up. How humiliating would that be?

"Are you alright?" Ramsey asked concern apparent in his voice. He had just seen her near to tears; there was no way she was going to throw up in front of him. Vulnerability wasn’t exactly high on her list of things she liked to show in front of complete strangers. Especially not ones she had just been making out with.

"Fine, thank you," she said hopping down off of the railing and avoiding his gaze. That was quite enough of the affectionate stuff for her today. She would much rather close herself back off. It seemed to work better. It also usually kept her from making out with random guys while her sorta-non-ex-boyfriend was watching. Ugh. She cringed just thinking about it.

As she turned to walk back into his apartment, she found herself wobbling and weaving. She didn’t remember drinking quite enough to make her feel so out of control, but perhaps that sexy kiss had something to do with that. No, she wasn’t supposed to think about Ramsey’s delicious peppermint kisses. That would just get her drunk ass in trouble. And really how much worse could she make her situation?

Just then, her favorite pair of black alligator skin stilettos caught on a nook in one of the wooden planks and sent her toppling to the ground. Ramsey was instantly at her side. Just before she met disaster, he swooped her up into his arms, and cradled her body in a gesture that strongly resembled a tango dip. Her cheeks were burning from a combination of mortified embarrassment, relief, and the fact that he was holding her in such an intimate position. She sucked in a few calming breaths, her eyes remaining locked into his emerald orbs. They were beautiful with flecks of gold spiraling away from the onyx pupils. And how had she missed that he smelled kind of like peppermints too? Peppermints mixed with something uniquely his own. Whatever it was, it was damn addictive. And maybe that was just her damsel-in-distress intoxicated view of the world, but he really was unbelievably good looking. Oh and look, his lips were so close once again.
