I brush my lips over her clit, and she about comes off the chair. “Is that where you want me, baby? You want me to kiss that pretty clit?”
“Yes,” she moans, the muscles in her legs and belly pulled tight in anticipation.
I lean in and wrap my lips around her hard nub, sucking it into my mouth. My tongue circles it, and her wet pussy soaks my chin and beard. “Fuck,” I moan like a man that’s going through hell. I would give anything to stand up and bury my dick deep inside her right now. But not yet. First, I need her to come on my tongue.
She’s shivering underneath me, and I know she’s close. I lick and suck her, pushing my finger in and out of her hole, which is like a vise grip. The more I give her, the farther she moves up the chair. “Give it to me, Honey. I want you to come on my tongue. Let it go,” I plead with her.
She gasps, writhing underneath me, flooding my face with her release.
I slowly stand up and then put my hands on each side of her hips, leaning over her. She’s dazed and looking at me under hooded eyes. My cock is so hard I could drive nails with it right now.
“Soon, Honey. Soon I’m going to be inside you, and there’s not going to be any turning back. You better make sure that’s what you want.”

Honey
We leave the tattoo shop, and I’m still in a daze. I didn’t even realize that David paid for my tattoo until we were gone. My brain is foggy, and it’s like I can’t think straight. But I know it’s because of the mind-blowing orgasm that David just gave me.
All I’ve been able to think about is when he said, “You better make sure that’s what you want.”
What does that even mean? He’s going to have sex with me but he’s still planning on leaving? Or he’s going to stay and make me his?
Man, why didn’t I ask him? Usually, I can’t stop myself from asking questions, but now, when it’s important, I couldn’t even get the words out.
He dropped me off at the produce stand with a promise he’d be over later. I remember that we have a double date planned with Ginger and a guy she met, but I’m already considering canceling. I want David to myself tonight.
David
I have the day off, and I go to the hardware store. As soon as I pull in, Millie’s walking out the door. “Where you going, squirt?”
“Out. And you do realize that I’m twenty-four now. I think you can drop the nickname.”
Shit. Twenty-four. I shake my head as I realize that Honey is the same age as my baby sister. What am I doing?
Millie gets in her car and drives away, and the good mood I was in earlier has now disappeared.
I walk into the hardware store. “Hey, Reuben.”
“Hey there, big brother. You ready to work?”
He’s always trying to get me to come back to work the lumber yard and hardware store, and it’s funny because right now, it doesn’t sound as unappealing as it used to.
“Okay, what’s up? Your girlfriend break up with you?”
“What? How’d you know I was seeing someone?” I ask him.
He laughs. “Are you kidding? This is Cherry Falls. Everyone knows you’re dating the pretty little farm girl. Honey, right?”
I nod. “And no, she didn’t break up with me. But I’m sure it won’t be long.”
I wait for Reuben to bust my balls because that’s what we do, but he surprises me. “She’s crazy about you from what I understand.”
“Yeah, and she’s the same age as Millie, so I’m sure she’ll change her mind soon enough.”
Reuben comes around and leans against the counter. “I doubt it. I’d say the only one that’s going to mess this up is going to be you.”
“Me?” I ask, surprised.
“Yeah, you. You’ll decide that she’s going to cheat on you.”
“She’s not like that,” I interrupt him.
“Oh. Well, good that you realize that then. So then you’ll ruin it when you decide to leave and break her heart.”
“I don’t know if I can stay,” I tell him honestly. It’s been on my mind for days, and after today, I don’t know if I could ever leave Cherry Falls again. Not without Honey. But what if that changes? What if I can’t take it anymore, up and leave and break her heart? I wouldn’t be able to live with myself.
“Do you love her?”
I picture Honey at her produce stand working, at the pantry helping and caring for others, her handing me a peach looking at me like I’m normal instead of an oversized oaf. And then I picture her today. Her thighs open and looking at me with so much desire and trust. “Yeah, I love her.”
Reuben smiles really big. “Good. I’ll be glad to have my brother back.”
I shake my head. “Just because I love her doesn’t mean that I’m staying in Cherry Falls.”
“Okay, so you’re going to leave then?”
I about double over at the pain in my stomach just thinking about leaving Honey, and I shake my head side to side.
“You love her. Don’t fuck this up, David. She needs you, and I don’t know why, but it’s obvious to everyone in this town the girl loves you. And besides, Millie and I need you too.”
“Reuben, I don’t know…”
“You always did make things harder than they need to be. You love her? Then you find a way to make it work, David. Simple as that.”
I nod my head and get to talking about the store as I help Reuben move around some shelving units. A few hours go by, and I’m still thinking about Honey. Reuben’s right. There’s no way I can leave her. I know that. But I meant what I said earlier. She has to be sure. Because there’s no turning back.

Honey
The way he’s been acting and looking at me these last few days gives me the feeling that he isn’t going to be taking off and that I can hopefully count on him being around. Especially after today.
We’ve planned on having a movie night where Ginger and a guy she is seeing were supposed to come over too, but I call Ginger and tell her that David and I have decided to go out and not to come over. I want to let go and show David that I trust him, that I want him not just for the night but forever.
He gets to my place, bringing drinks and popcorn with him. I start popping the popcorn and have the movie cued up ready to go.
“Ginger and her guy must be running late,” he comments as I sit down next to him.
I’ve already noticed that he’s wound tight. Even more than usual.
As I cuddle close to him on the couch, I tell him, “Ginger and her date aren’t coming because I wanted to be alone with you.”
His body freezes beside me. “Honey, we need to talk.”
I lay my head down on his shoulder. What he’s saying doesn’t sound good. Could I be wrong? Is he leaving anyway?
“Okay,” I mutter, wanting to know what he’s thinking but also just as scared of finding out too.
He turns to the side. “I need you to look at me.”
His fingertips are on my chin, forcing me to look up at him. Is that fear in his eyes?
“I want you to know that I’m staying in Cherry Falls.”
My smile is instant, and I lean forward to kiss him, but he pulls back. “I want you to know that even if I’m staying, you still have a choice. If you’re not sure about us, or if you want to slow things down, you need to tell me now.”
I shake my head. How can he even think that? But then it hits me. He’s still trying to protect me, even now, even from him.
I climb onto his lap and swing my leg over until I’m straddling him. I position myself until his manhood is pressed right against my sex.
His fingers are digging into the arm of the sofa, and I know he’s fighting to not touch me. Maybe this conversation could go a little easier if I was naked.
I pull the sleeveless dress up my body and toss it to the floor behind me. A bra didn’t really go with the spaghetti straps, so the only thing I’m wearing is my barely-there thong panties.
He sucks in
a deep breath. “Honey…”
“David, I knew I wanted you the minute I first saw you. You’re a good man, and I know you still aren’t sure about us or the future, but I am. And I’ll take you any way I can have you until you figure it out.”
He shakes his head, and finally his arms come out and wrap around my neck, bringing me closer to him. “But I do know. I’m not perfect, Honey. I’m going to fuck up. But I love you and I know that I’ll never leave you. We may have to travel sometimes if this small town starts to get to me, but I won’t go unless you are with me. I want us.”
His words send a chill down my body, and I scoot forward, reaching down to kiss him. The kiss goes from timid to hot and heated in an instant, and his hands are everywhere. I pull from his touch and slide off his legs until I’m on my knees on the floor in front of him.
“No, Honey. You don’t have to,” he says, but as soon as I have his pants unzipped and his hard manhood out between us, I curl my fingers around his thick girth.
He gasps, and his head falls back on the couch in a moan. “I want to,” I tell him, and I truly do. I want to please him just like he pleased me.
I caress up and down his length and then stroke my finger across his tip, coating it with the bead of fluid there. I smear it down his manhood and pump his cock, holding on to his shaft with a tight grip. The more he moves and moans, the more I tighten my grip until I can’t take it anymore, and I lean forward, my hard nipples brushing across his hot skin. He reaches down, caressing my breast and holding its weight in his hand as I open my mouth and touch my tongue to his tip.
His eyes fly open, and then he’s looking at me. I can’t take my eyes off him as I open wider, wanting to take him all the way in my mouth.
David
The sight of Honey on her knees and my cock in her hands and then her mouth has me about to shoot my cum between her lips. But that’s not where I want it. I want it buried deep inside her until there’s no doubt who she belongs to.
I wrap my hands around her arms and drag her up my body until she’s straddling me again. My cock, hot and hard, is pressed along the seam of her ass, and I about come right then.
“Was I doing it wrong?” she asks with swollen lips.
“No, you were doing good. Too good. I want – fuck that – I need inside you.” I grunt the words out like I’m some kind of Neanderthal.
She leans over, pulling a box from the drawer of the end table. “I went over to Kissme today and got these,” she says with a flush on her face.
“You planned on this, huh?” I ask her, taking the box of condoms from her hand and pulling one out.
“More like I hoped it would happen.”
I pull my shirt off, and her hands smooth across my chest as if she’s committing the feel of me to memory. And with each touch, my heart beats faster and faster. I lift my hips and finish pulling my pants down. She’s bouncing across my lap, and when she goes to move, I stop her. “Where do you think you’re going?”
“I was going to help you get your pants down,” she says as I kick them down to my ankles. I should be smoother than this, but right now I can’t be.
“I got it,” I tell her, scooting her to my knees so my cock is between us. She’s gazing at it, licking her lips, and another bead of cum leaks from my tip. I open the wrapper and slide the latex down my shaft.
I look at her, and she looks at me, and I lean in to feather kisses across her face, her neck, her chest. I bury my face in her breasts, licking each one until she’s squirming on my lap. I grab the flimsy material of her panties and rip it from her body.
She raises up then, her hand around my shaft, and I stop breathing. This is it. This is when I make her mine. Hell, I already know I’m hers… for as long as she wants me.
She guides me between her legs and strokes herself with my cock. Her heat surrounds me as she slides down slowly over me. She pauses, and I know I’m stretching her by the uncomfortable look on her face.
I kiss her again, and then she nuzzles her lips into my neck. “Take your time, baby. There’s no rush. I love you,” I whisper to her.
I feel her lips pull into a smile against my neck, and she whispers to me over and over, “I love you, David” as she slides farther and farther down on my cock. I’m not breathing. I don’t dare take a breath for fear she might stop. When she impales herself completely on my cock, she sits there, and I can feel her insides clenching on to me like a vise.
Her chest is heaving, and her nipples are stroking against my chest with each breath. We sit there just like that, and for a second I know I’m in heaven, or as close to it as I’ve ever been. Her hands slide up my arms, and her fingers dig into my shoulders as she raises herself up and then down again.
I bite back a groan as I wrap my hands around her waist and help her move. Up and down. I let her move until with every downward motion, she’s grinding her clit into my pelvis. Then my hands go to her ass, and I thrust up, hard and sharp. She braces her hands on each side of me, and I take over, wanting to please her. Her body rocks against mine, and my possession of her takes me to new heights when she’s moaning with every thrust of our hips. “Come for me, Honey. I need you to come on my cock.”
I slide my hand between us and spread her folds, rubbing her clit. She starts to writhe, but I don’t stop. Because I want it all.
She shatters on top of me, and her pussy bears down on my cock as we come together. I explode inside her, and for the first time, I wish I was bare. I want to feel her and only her.
She lies limp in my arms, and I struggle to get my breath back. To think I thought I could ever even think of leaving her is stupid. I’ll never leave her. She’s mine… and I’m hers.
Epilogue
Honey
I wake up hours later, and David is cocooned behind me in my bed. His legs are tangled around mine, and his arm is around me, his hand cupping my breast.
I move my hips just a little, and he groans in my ear. “Do that again and I can’t be held responsible for my actions.”
I roll in his arms and look up at him. “Again? There’s no way.”
He kisses my nose. “With you, there’s always a way. Plus I need to catch up. I’ve been hard since the day I met you.”
I smile, remembering that day at the Pantry and me offering him peaches. It’s hard to believe that was merely a month ago.
Now I couldn’t imagine my life without him in it. And the thought scares me just a little. He said he loves me. He said he’s not leaving, but, well I have to tell him.
“David, you have to promise me that if you decide to leave Cherry Falls, you’ll tell me. You leave, I’m going with you. My family, my farm, my business is here. But I’d go with you if that’s what you wanted.”
He smiles and rolls toward me so that I’m underneath him, and I can feel his weight on top of me. “I’m not going anywhere. Cherry Falls is growing on me. I’m going to turn my notice in at the diner. My brother and I talked, and I’m going to take over the lumber yard while he focuses on the store.”
The more he talks about his future plans in Cherry Falls, the bigger my grin gets and the faster my heart beats. “So you’re sure? About Cherry Falls? About me?”
He cups my chin and looks into my eyes. “The one thing I’m absolutely sure about is you, Honey. I have no doubts about you or the feelings I have for you.” He strokes his thumb across my lip, and I know he’s going to kiss me. “Now show me some love, baby.”
I put my arms around his neck and scream as he tickles me with his beard. When I finally catch my breath, we’re both laughing. I sigh happily with our bodies pressed to each other. “I love you, David Cantal.”
He gives me another possessive smile that sends my pulse racing all over again. “I love you too, Honey.”
Epilogue 2
Ginger
“I can’t believe I’m doing this,” Honey says for the tenth time.
“You owe me,” I tell her. “Do you know how long it’s been since we�
��ve hung out?”
I can see from the frown on her face that as soon as I said it, I shouldn’t have. Don’t get me wrong. I love seeing my sister happy, but I do miss seeing her. She and David are all about each other, and I wouldn’t be surprised at all if I have to buy a bridesmaid dress sooner rather than later.
“I’m sorry, Ginger. You’re right. I know I’ve been busy.” And she gets that sweet look on her face that she gets when she’s thinking of David. I barely resist rolling my eyes at her.
“Well, I’m not wanting you to feel guilty. I just didn’t want to do this by myself, that’s all.”
We’re standing outside the Cherry Bomb Tattoo Parlor, and Honey asks me, “And you made your appointment with Ozzie, right? David’s good friends with him, and he trusts him.”
“Yes, sis. I have an appointment with Ozzie,” I tell her for what seems like the hundredth time. I don’t see what the big deal is, though. I’m sure anyone in there with a license is capable of doing the little tattoo that I have picked out.
But if it meant my sister coming with me, I can do what she asks and have her and David’s friend do it.
Honey opens the door and waves me in, following behind me. We look around, and Honey opens some books, flipping through all the artwork. I walk over to the corner, looking at all the different designs on the wall when a man comes into the lobby from the back.
His gaze instantly lands on my sister, and he smiles. “Hey, Honey.”
Honey looks up at him. “Hey, Ozzie. This is my sister, Ginger.”
