One Simple Step (Journey #3)

“That sounds like a great idea,” I said pulling my shirt over my head as I hurried to catch up and she squealed when my hand smacked her bare ass. I made quick work of my shorts, and we were both standing in the steamy bathroom, naked but still covered in paint.

“I don’t think I like this color.” I grazed her stomach with my hands, and she sucked in a deep breath, holding herself up against the bathroom counter. “I love it, on you at least.”

The feel of her bare skin against mine was almost too much to handle, and when her hand slipped in between us, her fingertips feathering over my hardness, I about came unglued on the spot. I could barely stand it, but I needed more.

My hands fisted into her hair, tipping her face up to mine, and I attacked her mouth and jaw, licking and nipping as she twisted her hips against me. I cupped her ass with one hand to pull her harder into me, and she complied, knowing exactly what I needed by wrapping her legs tightly around my waist. “So wet and ready for me,” I murmured into her neck as my hand disappeared to explore.

“Nick,” she panted out, squeezing her eyes shut before popping them back open, her blue eyes full of want. And I wanted nothing more than to give her exactly what she wanted. She dug her nails into my backside, trying to guide me wordlessly, but I definitely didn’t need any instructions.

I pushed quickly inside, letting out a loud sigh as I entered her warmness.

Pure. Fucking. Heaven.

Her hips arched off the countertop to meet mine every time, and I picked up the pace in a hurried frenzy. Her head fell back, and I dropped my lips down to take her nipple into my mouth, pulling one of her legs up even higher against me, filling her as much as possible.

“Oh my...” Ally couldn’t even finish her sentence as her breathing quickened, and I couldn’t blame her, it wasn’t that easy to think when this right here was happening. I pulled out almost completely, and she whimpered once with need, before I slammed back into her, and her hips pushed back down to meet me.

That was all she needed. Her body shuddered around mine, and I rocked into her once more, before I was right there with her. I let my body weight completely cover her, and she giggled pushing at my chest. “Um…my ass is in the sink.”

I peeked over her shoulder to see that all of our movement had slid her practically across the counter and one of her very fine looking ass cheeks was hanging over the sink. A low laugh rumbled up from my chest, but she gave me a look that instantly shut me up. I could tell she wasn’t amused.

I pulled out slowly, groaning at the loss of connection between our bodies. I would be inside of her all day for the rest of my life if I could, but I don’t think she would really go for that.

I lifted her up, and she wrapped her body around mine once again. “How ‘bout that shower then?”

“Okay,” she whispered against my neck, and just with that simple answer, I knew we would be doing a whole lot more than showering, and I was all set to go.

This girl was absolutely blowing my mind.





Chapter 17


Ally



I pushed myself up on one elbow, and put my chin in my hand as I stared down at Nick with a smile. My finger traced over the well-defined muscles in his bare, tan stomach, and I hitched a leg over his to snuggle my body closer into his warmth.

I couldn’t believe how far we had come in such a short amount of time.

Teddy kept to his promise, and a week after the night he had dropped back into my life unexpectedly, I received the divorce papers from his lawyer’s office. All that was needed was my signature, and things moved pretty smoothly after that.

I didn’t want Teddy’s money. I wasn’t some money grubbing ex that planned to take her husband to the cleaners. Teddy was right though, when he said that I had basically been their manager for the past couple of years, and when he proposed one lump sum instead of monthly alimony, I agreed.

So, I was officially divorced, and a free woman.

Well, as free as I could get I suppose. Nick had stolen my heart practically the minute I met him, and I didn’t want it back.

And now here we were in Indiana. Nick wanted to make things right with Leah and my family, and properly meet everyone. So, after he made sure Aaron, his assistant manager, was totally capable of running the resort on his own for a weekend, we scheduled a trip to visit my parents.

At least I didn’t have to worry about work anymore. As soon as Leah left, I took her advice about starting up my own business, and jumped in feet first. My bedroom and Nick’s house had been overtaken by headbands, flowers, bows, and tulle.

I already had some mad marketing skills on my side from working with the band, so the first step I took was setting up a website. The Internet was everything with this type of business. From there, I started adding pictures of all the different creations that I made, and started to get custom orders quickly.
