His serious expression shifts to playful when his mouth quirks up into a smile. “Well, it’s only nine-thirty, you know.”
His smile is contagious. “Yeah? What were you thinking? Ice cream and an episode of Game of Thrones?”
His semi-hard cock suggests something else. “Maybe later,” he says, rolling me onto my back and pressing the head of his cock against my still-sensitive clit. “We have to make the most of the alone time we get, right?”
Wrapping my legs around his waist and digging my fingers into his well-muscled ass, all I can do is nod. Yes, yes, yes.
