"Understood, sir!"
Twenty
Alex
"Drill Sergeant Stanley," I address her.
"Drill Sergeant Dean," she acknowledges back.
We stare at each with poker expressions until my mouth twitches a bit, and her mouth curves to a smirk. I'm not sure who completely cracks first, but in the next moment, we are grinning at each other broadly.
Her smiling face strikes me, beautiful, radiant, proud, and the image makes my stomach flip. A year has passed, and yet this beautiful and strong woman will never cease to amaze me.
I move first, unable to restrain myself anymore, and I scoop up Tessa in my arms. My chest feels like it's about to burst from happiness and pride while my mind runs through a thousand words, trying to pick the best ones to tell her that would adequately convey what I'm feeling right now.
I fail, but it's clear that she doesn't mind that I'm currently at a loss because she pulls me into a soft kiss.
"Why does it get me hot when I hear you address me like that?" She wonders, and it startles a laugh out of me.
"Well, as long as it's only from me..." I tease her.
"Am I detecting a hint of jealousy here?" She asks, amused, trailing her fingers upon my nape and caressing the sensitive skin there. I shiver, and she must have sensed my reaction because she releases a pleased hum.
"I can't help it. What if some younger guy whisks you away?" I ask half-jokingly. It's not like the thought hasn't strayed into my mind before.
Tessa is possibly the most attractive woman I have ever laid eyes on, and any guy would want to be with her.
"I'm offended that you think I'm easy," she says, raising an eyebrow. "I'll whip you hard if you really think that."
"Ooh, kinky!" I exclaim, waggling my eyebrows at her.
She laughs and playfully whacks me with her hand. I'm still chuckling when Tessa pulls me into another kiss. This time, it isn't soft but passionate and smoldering, and it frankly knocks the breath out of me.
"I don't even have the time to think of other guys," she says when we finally part from our kiss. "You occupy my mind so completely, Alex. And my heart only beats for you."
My mouth drops slightly open, stunned, and for the second time today, I find myself speechless.
"Cat got your tongue?" She smirks, thoroughly pleased at rendering me speechless.
"You got my tongue," I declare before pulling her into another kiss. It might not be the best comeback, but my skills in french kissing effectively keep her from teasing me any further.
"I think we've done enough PDA in front of the Academy, Drill Sergeant Stanley," I say to her, completely unrepentant, as we finally break from our embrace. "How about we hightail out of here?"
"Let's."
"The beach is stunning today," Tessa sighs as she gazes out the window, observing the gentle waves lapping at the shoreline.
She turns to me, a sweet smile on her face that makes my insides melt.
"Alex, thanks for bringing me here. You didn't have to, you know? This is an expensive restaurant."
"Nonsense," I say in dismissal, returning her smile. "Only the best for my woman."
"Careful now or else I'll get spoiled," she warns me, grinning. "That chocolate dipped ice cream cone was phenomenal, but I feel really full now."
"How about a walk by the beach?" I suggest, already motioning at a waiter for the bill.
A few minutes later, we're by the beach, enjoying the salty breeze while our feet are ankle-deep in water. Sometimes, it's nice to enjoy small moments like this, especially if it's Tessa with me.
Tessa has a peaceful look on her face as she plays idly with the water by her feet. It strikes me again how amazing this woman is, and I wonder just how I managed to be this lucky to have her with me, in my life, loving me back as ferociously.
I'm not sure why, but I suddenly find the words I've meant to say to her. Before, I don't even know where to begin.
"Tessa, I'm really proud of you, you know that, right?" I tell her, earnestly. She looks at me in surprise before her mouth breaks into a smile.
"We've come so far, and I can finally say we're on even grounds," I say before she can even speak, words just bursting from my mouth. "I'm so happy that we're finally at this moment where I can yell to the world that you're mine, that I love you so much. I'm so glad that you find us worth it. You kept going despite all the odds against us."
Too caught up with my words, I only realize that she's right before me when I look up to see her reaction. She beams at me so brightly.
"Alex, thank you," she says. "I would have chosen you above anything else, even my job."
She smiles, her eyes full with so much emotion. "And I love you too."
We pull each other for a chaste kiss, but soon enough, it gets more heated with our tongues sliding against each other. Like how Tessa is in every aspect, she fights for dominance in kissing.
The effect of it on me is like heat taking over my whole body. My hands can't help but stray over Tessa's body, trying to feel as much exposed skin I have on my reach.
She gasps when my hand cups her pert ass, "We should go home. I want you to fuck me."
"Don't say that now," I groan, feeling myself get fully hard. "Wait, I have a better idea."
I lead her far away from the few people milling around to a secluded part of the beach. Thankfully, it's a weekday afternoon, and the place isn't so populated.
Tessa immediately understands my intentions, and she's wearing this expression — half-lidded eyes and a bitten lip — that has my cock twitching.
We arrive at an area where towering rock formations entirely cover us from view. It gives us a sense of privacy, which has us shedding our clothes so fast.
"I want you to fuck me so hard," Tessa says, a sultry look on her face, as she tosses her panties on the sand. "I want you to stir me up until all that's left of me is a wanton mess. Can you do it?"
"Without a doubt," I reply, voice thick and low with arousal.
I place a hand on her hip and pull her roughly against me, letting her know how much I want her as I rub my length against her front. There's a smile on her face, obviously pleased, and her fingers caress through my short hair before they tug me down for a kiss.
It's filthy and hot. It immediately makes me want to feel Tessa around my dick.
I waste no time in making Tessa feel more pleasure, wanting to hear her gasps and whimpers, and I explore every curve and contour of her body with my hands. I'm awarded by a moan when my fingers finally drift towards her breast, pinching and playing with her nipples.
She smells so fucking good, and I help myself to her neck, mouthing and nipping on her delicate skin. As smoothly as I can, I maneuver us down on the sand.
She's on her back, and I take the time to appreciate her toned body. She sees me looking, and she teasingly opens her legs before petting the entrance of her pussy.
I kneel between her legs, mesmerized at the beauty in front of me, and I knock her hand away so I could slide my fingers inside her. She's already enticingly wet, and soon enough, I have already prepared her well enough for my large cock.
I position my cock against her pussy before pushing ever so slowly, teasingly, until I'm entirely inside her. She moans so loud that I silence her with my mouth.
When we break apart, we lock eyes with each other, smiling.
"I love you, Alex," she says.
"I love you too, Tessa," I reply, giving her a love-smacked look.
"Now, move!" She complains, and I laugh before giving her a wild time on the sand. This is the wildest ride of our lives.
