Written in the Sand

by Marie , J

“Well, why are we still sitting here? I believe you have big plans for worshipping my body when we get home. I want every second as promised.”

  “Your wish is my command, Cass.” He tipped his imaginary cowboy hat, and pulled back onto the road, flooring it as gravel flew around us.

  The trip home seems shorter than normal, or maybe it was the lead foot beside me. He sped home just as promised. Nerves started to creep in as we pulled into the driveway. All of a sudden, I was anxious because we were no longer just flirting and joking about it. Things were going to happen for real and I had butterflies at the thought of finally giving myself over to Beau Montgomery. I wasn’t scared about it at all, I was excited because I knew he would make it good for me.

  I looked over at Beau as he looked at me. “Ready?”

  “I think?” I said, suddenly unsure.

  He reached out and touched my cheek. “Hey… we don’t have to do this if you’re not ready yet. I promise I won’t be mad at you. I’ll be disappointed, but I will never ever be mad at you. I’ve told you multiple times that we’d move at your speed and I meant it, still do. You say no and we can go inside right now and turn on a movie and cuddle the night away.”

  “No, I want this. I want you. It’s just… I haven’t done this in a while and I may be bad at it.”

  “It’s been a while for me, too. So, let’s relearn things together. We’ll go slow. Let our bodies do all the talking tonight.”

  He kissed me once before hopping out of the truck and crossing to open my door for me. Offering his hand to me, I took it. I remembered what I told myself when I left earlier tonight. I’d let the cards fall as they may. I wanted this with him. It could be weird, but Beau loved me. I knew he’d make me feel comfortable however he could.

  We crossed the threshold to his house and I knew it was going to happen.

  “You want some liquid courage, Cass?”

  “Are you going to have anything?”

  “No.”

  “No? Why not?”

  “I need my brain in working order so I can remember every single moment tonight. I want to memorize you. Burn everything that turns you on into my brain so that I can never forget the first time I made love with the woman I’ve been saving my heart for.”

  “Those are some pretty heavy words, Beau.”

  “You said you were letting go tonight, right?”

  I nodded, “Yes.”

  “Good, then I’m going to give you a night to remember. I want to show you how a real man loves and worships his woman and her body like they’re the most precious gift he’s ever been given. I told you before and I’ll tell you again. I’m giving you all my love, darlin’. I’m all in. I want you. I want you in the worst way right now and I don’t mean in a lust-filled way, although I feel that way too.”

  “You’re really all in?”

  “Cassidy Mae, if all I had for the rest of my life was your hand in mine and you in my bed every morning and by my side during the day, then I’d die being the happiest damn man that ever lived. You mean more to me than words can express.”

  I was overcome with feelings and I rushed him. My lips found his and we consumed one another.

  Teeth.

  Tongues.

  Lips.

  This man had just crashed the last damn wall of my heart and I was crumbling, crashing into him faster than a shooting star. It was more than just want with him. It was so much deeper.

  I.

  Needed.

  Everything.

  He was my stronghold. I didn’t know why fate saw fit to bring this man into my life again, but I was grabbing the chance with both hands and holding on for dear life. My breathing was heavy, heated, and excited for what came next. I was dangling on the edge of that damn cliff, waiting to drop into the rocky bluff below and for once in my life, I had no fear. I was ready. If he was my downfall and the ending result was love, then I would gladly fall to my death for him.

  The first kiss between us had been electric. This kiss was different in the best way imaginable. My skin itched to feel the rough of his beard against it as he kissed me. I needed more of him. It was no longer an experiment. It was heated, passionate, and lust-filled. In this moment I wanted nothing more than to bury myself so deep in him that I’d never be able to free myself from his love. I was skating on a high, living a dream I’d only ever dreamt when I was young and I wanted it to be permanently etched in my brain. I wanted his touch to burn a brand onto my body, so I could look at it forever and know I was his and he was mine.

  Things this good didn’t happen to me. I’d been lucky to get away from the evil that surrounded my life before I came home to Moonshine Springs. Before I came home to him. I didn’t know that was the plan when I first came home, but my eyes were now open. Beau was right. Fate had a way of pulling us together and after tonight there would be no going back to the way things were. I was wasted on him. Drunk on love. All in. Written in the sand, the damn stars, and the rest of our lives.

  “One final chance to say no, Cass. If we go into my bedroom, there’s no turning back.”

  I smiled up at him, “I’m all in.”

  “God, I love you, woman. You have no idea how damn much. Now… I want to make love to you how I’ve been dreaming about for years.”

  He picked me up behind the knees and carried me upstairs with him. I put my hand down to cover my backside but then realized it was just Beau and I. No one else was home. He walked through his door and straight to his king-size bed. He laid me down gently.

  “God, you’re beautiful and you’re all mine now. Some days I still can’t believe that you came back to me.”

  “Beau?”

  “Yeah?”

  “Stop talking and kiss me.”

  He smiled, leaning in to press his lips against mine. I felt his tongue against the seam of my mouth, begging permission to enter and I opened.

  The moment her lips touched mine a spark of electricity shot right through me and my heart skipped a beat. I knew it wasn’t actually possible, but I still couldn’t believe this was finally happening. She wouldn’t have kissed me like that if she wasn’t all in. She’d even said the words to me. That kiss told me everything I needed to know.

  She was cementing us, our love, what she felt for me at that exact moment in time. “Can I touch you?” I asked gently and she nodded. My hands found her flushed skin.

  She melted into me like the silkiest of chocolate and I couldn’t help but consume it. Her body responded to my touch like it was attuned just to me. I drew my fingers over her breasts and her nipples peaked in response. I wanted to see their dusty pink coloring against my tanned hands. Hell, I wanted to rip every last shred of clothing off of her and devour her body like I was a man starved, but I knew I was going too fast, I needed to slow down for the both of us. I wanted this moment to last.

  My hands kept on their journey to her promised land. Over her ribs, down her stomach, grazing over her hips and down her thighs. I let my hand slip under the hem of her dress and I waited, making sure that it was okay to continue. I wanted her, but I was also a gentleman so I wouldn’t rush things. When she reached down and pulled her dress up showing me her sexy as sin body, I knew that was her giving me permission to continue on my journey. I let my lips trail down her jawline, nibbling at her throat over where her heart beat furiously. I took one of her clothed breasts into my mouth and sucked. A moan escaped her lips and I knew I was doing something right.

  I still wasn’t close enough though. I wanted skin to skin contact. My hands touched her soft skin. A combination of me and her tangled up in each other.

  “Cass, this dress needs to go. I want to see you…”

  She lifted up slightly so I could get her dress over her fine ass and slowly up her body, exposing her to me more and more as it went. I threw it behind me, not caring where it landed because the sight before me was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen in my lifetime. I reached over to pull her panties down her smooth legs while s
he helped remove her bra. I stared. Words wouldn’t form on my lips.

  “Beau…” She said quietly and my eyes found hers, “Say something…”

  I could tell she was nervous by the way her hand raised up as she tried to cover herself like she was ashamed of her body.

  “You’re perfection, darlin’. You look amazing—radiant. Have I mentioned how much I love each and every one of your curves? Being home has been good to you.” My lips press to the hollow of her neck and I whispered, “Do not ever cover yourself up in front of me. If today is the only day I have to worship this work of art, then so be it. I want to look at every single dip and curve of your body and know I’ve left my mark on it.” I ran my hand up her body and stopped over her heart. “I especially want to make sure this heart of yours knows it’s found it’s forever home and it’s never allowed to run away again…unless it takes mine with it.”

  I leaned down again, placing her breast in my mouth and sucking on the very tip, eliciting another of my favorite pleasure moans from her. My hands moved down her body slowly towards the place they wanted to explore the most and my lips followed. Kissing each nipple and each rib. A small kiss to her soft stomach. A kiss on her belly button, my hot breath trailing downward as she squirmed below me, making a number of sexy as hell noises. I stop right above her mound and my mouth watered craving a taste of her body like I’d had the last time I was this close to her. I leaned down and pressed one singular kiss to her clit and then sucked it into my mouth.

  She arched into me and I gave her more of what she wanted. My fingers found her warm and wet for me, wanting this just as badly as I do. The twitching cock inside my pants begged me to turn him loose on her body. I could feel pre-come beading on the very tip in anticipation of what I knew was coming. I’m excited, almost too excited, and I’m afraid that if I let him out right now, I’d just embarrass myself for the second time tonight.

  I came prepared, going to the store earlier today to buy preparations. I hadn’t planned on sex with her, but I was hopeful, and I didn’t want her to think I was planning to just come inside her body and not think about the consequences of those actions, no matter how much I’d love to see her pregnant.

  I slipped one finger, followed by a second, into her core finding her soaking for me. I wouldn’t need the lube I’d purchased just in case. My girl liked how I was teasing her body. My fingers caressed the front of her core where I knew her sweet spot was hiding. She moaned and I continued circling her clit. I could feel her clenching against my fingers and I knew that she was going to come soon, I raised up to look at her and found perfection. Her head was thrown back in pleasure, back arched to meet the thrust of my fingers, toes curled and fingers grasping the sheets of the bed like if she didn’t hold on, she might just slip away.

  “Do you like that, Cass? That feel good?”

  A whimper left her lips. “Yes, Beau…more.”

  I did as she pleaded. I gave her just that. I replaced my mouth with my fingers and let my tongue thrust into her over and over again like I would soon do with my cock. This was just the preshow. Another lick tore a cry from her lips and I knew she wouldn’t last much longer. My fingers found her clit again and rubbed the bundle of nerves right above where my mouth was working her. Her hands found my hair, pulling me closer into her. Showing me where she needed me the most.

  “Beau…” She moaned, raising up and running her hands down my shoulders and that’s when I realized I still had my shirt on.

  “I know, darlin’. Come for me.” She let herself fall back to the bed as she shattered for me. Muscles clenching, tightening, and releasing. Her face covered in pure bliss. Her thighs clamped around my head as she rode out the orgasm, I’d just given her.

  “Please.” She begged me.

  I chuckled down at her, my gaze filled with lust and heat. “You want more of me, Cass?”

  “I want all of you. Everything. Give it to me.”

  “Demanding woman.”

  “Only when you’re withholding something I want, cowboy. Now, are you going to give me what I want?”

  I studied her expression. She wanted it. Her stare was intense, wanton with lust for me and I was gone. A second later, I released myself from my pants and sent them sailing across the floor. Her eyes trailed up and down my naked body. I couldn’t help but puff myself up knowing that she liked what she saw. My cock nodded its head in approval of her perusal. She reached out to touch me and I almost lost it instantly. It’s so sensitive that I needed to take a breather for a couple of minutes.

  “Cass,” I gritted out. “You’re making me damn crazy for you.”

  “Good. Now, come over here so I can put my mouth on you,” she said smiling at me.

  “No,” I shook my head. “It’ll be over way too soon if that happens and the only place I want to be is right here between these pretty legs of yours. Are you ready for this?”

  Her legs opened wide for me, and I gazed at the perfection between her legs. She’s not a virgin so this shouldn’t hurt, but I still wanted to go slow. I leaned down to suck on that glorious spot that she loves between her neck and her collarbone while my hand moved up and rolled her nipple between my thumb and forefinger. She tilted her hips to me, begging for more. I whispered praise of her body to her softly, sliding down to bite one nipple and then the other, making sure that she’s completely ready for me.

  “You’re perfect, Cass,” I whispered. “Absolute perfection.” I lifted up and reached into the nightstand for a condom. Better safe than sorry, I thought to myself. Rubbing my length, I leaned back down again rolling on the condom. I left a trail of soft kisses to the cavern between her breasts as I slowly lost myself inside her, stretching her to adjust to my size. She didn’t wince as I entered her.

  I sank into her one inch at a time and she angled to me so I could go deeper, hitting the base. I’m so hard I could split wood with my cock. My voice strained. “You’re so tight. You feel so good, baby. You okay? Tell me if I need to stop or slow down and I will. Even though it would kill me to leave your sweet pussy.”

  Emerald eyes met mine and she looked serious, “Beau…”

  “Yes, Cass.”

  “I need you to fuck me, hard. Like you mean it.” She reached around, grabbed my ass and pulled me in closer. I pulled almost all the way out and slammed fully back inside her to the hilt as a scream ripped from her mouth. Her breath hitched as I hit her sweet spot over and over again. I slowly stroked over it and made her tremble.

  “Oh God, yes, Beau. Right there. More.” She moaned and I couldn’t help but give her what she wanted. I threaded my fingers through hers and lifted them above her head, continuing to piston into her wickedly and I knew I wouldn’t last too much longer. Her wet heat sucked the life out of my cock, literally. My thrusts were frenzied with need that coiled deep within my soul. A bead of sweat dropped from my forehead and I watched as it traveled down her breast and over her stomach. I was not holding back anymore. I unleashed all of my power into making love to every single inch of her body. Our dueling shadows painted the walls with our passion.

  “Cassidy Mae.” I gasped. “I need you to come, darlin’. I’m going to follow you into that bliss as soon as you do. I can’t hold out much longer. You feel too good and it’s been too long.”

  I continued driving into her, my thrusts forceful, hitting her exactly where she needed it and she screamed out. I moved one hand down to her bundle of nerves and started to work it to send her over.

  “YES!” She screamed out. Her orgasm blazed into my body, squeezing my cock. It hit so hard that I started coming like a freight train unable to hold back any longer. A moan rumbled from my chest as we let it all out. Aftershocks coursed through our bodies. We laid locked together, all tangled up in each other. Our breathing was heavy, hearts pounding out a furious beat together as one.

  I pulled her into me and kissed her forehead. “Thank you for letting me make love to you.”

  “Thank you for waiting for m
e.” She whispered back.

  “I’d wait till my dying day for you if I had to. You’re worth the wait. Every single second of it.”

  My cock slipped from her warmth and although I wanted to lay there and bask in what just happened, I needed to get rid of this condom.

  “I’ll be right back.” She smiled at me, sated, and nodded.

  “I’ll be right here. Not sure my legs would let me move if I wanted to…”

  “Then I’ve done my job properly, darlin’.”

  I slipped into the bathroom and disposed of the condom.

  Looking at myself in the mirror I realized I was smiling. I was happy and it wasn’t just because of what had just happened. She was here, naked in my bed, saying yes to us and I couldn’t find a reason not to smile.

  I didn’t realize how long I’d stood there pondering about things. When I walked back into my room, I heard the soft breathing of my girl. I slowly got into bed and slid my hand below her pillow. I needed to cuddle her, even though she was technically already asleep. She needed to know that I was here. I wasn’t going anywhere. I stroked her hair softly. “I love you, Cassidy Mae. Always have and always will.” That night I slept better than I slept in a long, long time and I knew it was because my woman was finally in my arms and I was at peace. I was no longer longing to feel her pressed against me because it was real.

  The sun peeked in the window the following morning and I blinked my eyes open. My head laid on the same pillow as always, but it smelled sweeter. Like her. Not that I could forget she’d spent the night with me. I blinked a couple more times adjusting my eyes to the room. I looked over at my woman sleeping peacefully. Her dark hair was slightly disheveled and thoroughly sexed. She looked the perfect amount of messy. Her lips were pulled into a smile and I wondered if she’s dreaming about me. I leaned over to kiss her head and she mumbled something incoherent. Sleeping Cassidy was just as gorgeous as awake Cassidy.

  “Good morning, beautiful.”

  “Mmm…hi.” Emerald eyes found my own and as she stretched. She reminded me that we were both still completely naked and my cock twitched at the reminder as the sheets fell down, exposing her gloriously naked chest. She realized where my eyes were directed and moved to cover herself up again, a shy smile crossed those pretty pink lips of hers.
