Her hand is undoing my jeans and pulling my zipper down. She reaches in and starts rubbing my hardness with her soft warm hands. I groan around her lips and I feel her smile. “Fuck that feels good baby.” I didn’t want it to go this far but she has a mind of her own and there’s no telling her no to anything.
“I bet it does.” She wraps her small hands around my girth and her fingers don’t even wrap all the way around. It’s still feels amazing as she pulls them up and down. She chuckles as I throw my head back and arch my back.
“Okay if you want to play that game.” I say as I grab her hips. I reach to unbutton her jeans and move my hand down inside her panties. My hand reaches her bare skin and warm heat where I rub my thumb across her nub of nerves. She lets out a beautiful moan that I shallow with my lips. I slip one of my fingers into her wetness and almost come from the intense reaction it brings out of me. I make her into this beautiful creature. I make her this wet. Me. You don’t understand the power that has over me. This wonderful lovely girl wants me and I still don’t understand that sometimes.
“Declan.” She pants and it brings goose bumps across my skin. I thrust my finger in and out of her faster. I can’t wait to see her face when she comes. It’s the most beautiful thing ever.
My eyes are focused on her until she starts jacking my dick again. If she doesn’t stop that I’m going to miss the best part because my eyes are crossed. “Fuck fuck fuck.” Why is she doing this to me?
Her hips start to push back onto my hand and I know I’m thrusting up into hers. Yeah we aren’t going to last long. “Look at me when you come.” I tell her. Her green eyes met mine as she lowers her head to mine where our lips meet in a crushing kiss. Our eyes never leave the others. I thrust my finger into her even harder and rub her nub even faster. Before long she breaks the kiss to cry out her pleasure, her eyes never leaving mine. Yeah that’s when I can’t take anymore and blow my load onto her hand.
She falls down to my chest where I hold her to me. I run my fingers through her beautiful hair and say “We have to quit meeting like this Beautiful.”
She chuckles and I smile at the sound. “I personally hope we meet like this every day.”
Chapter 15
Teagan
After our sexy encounter in Maries old bedroom things slowed down. We hardly got to see each other because my brothers kept him busy. They were either all outside playing football or inside crowding the living room watching stupid movies. I guess if I would just come clean to Jaden we wouldn’t have to hide the fact that we are together. I just can’t bring myself to do it. I love my brother to pieces and I don’t want to hurt him. Sarah brought up a good point with the whole he’s dating your best friend so why can’t you date his. I don’t want it to be a rift between them. Jaden doesn’t have a lot of friends and I don’t want to be the reason he stops being friends with Declan. And that’s what would happen. He will be so pissed off about he’d probably never talk to him again. Who am I to do that?
I’m lying in my bed staring at the white ceiling hoping it will solve all my problems. I can smell the food being cooked down in the kitchen. My stomach rumbles. Sarah likes to start earlier and since both Marie and Jessica are married now they have to help. I think they would kick me out of the kitchen if I went down to help. I can’t cook for shit. I even burn the water while it’s boiling. I’m not going to make a great housewife.
Sarah is a wonderful cook. Over the summers she made us three meals a day and when we were in school we got breakfast and dinner. Her food will melt in your mouth with rich favors and have it watering for more. Mmm I smell bacon!
I rush out of bed and through a shower putting on black yoga pants and a pink tank top. I brush my hair up into a messy pony tail as I run down the stairs to get to the food before one of my brothers eats it all.
As I make my way to the kitchen I hear Declan’s deep rumble. That’s strange. He is not a morning person by any means. I stop short as I enter the huge decked out kitchen. He’s standing over the stove wearing nothing but a pink apron and sweats. No shirt to speak of. Jessica and Marie are already here and they are drooling over him. Sarah is standing by the coffee maker smirking at their reactions.
“How did you want your eggs Mrs. Harper?” his voice sounds scratching and totally sexy. I love it when his voice is like this. It’s the one you hear only in the mornings shortly after he has gotten up.
“Over easy. Good morning Teagan. Declan here was kind enough to offer to make breakfast. Do you want some bacon?” Sarah asks me with a twinkle in her eye. I’m starting to think that I never knew my step-mother at all. When Declan turns to say good morning to me her eyes strayed to his butt and didn’t leave it.
When I finally rake my eyes over Declan I almost fall on the floor laughing. I guess I didn’t realize that he was wearing Sarah’s favorite apron. It says “Kiss the Cook”. He looks at me puzzled so I point at the apron. He looks down and he realizes why I am laughing so hard. He walks over to me and points to his cheek. So I stand on my tippy toes and plant one on his beautiful mouth. I hear gasps from the other girls in the room but I don’t care. He’s mine and they better get to know it.
“That was unexpected. But thank you.” He smiles slyly at me and walks back over to the stove to finish cooking whatever it is he is cooking.
“So Declan why don’t you have a shirt on?” I probe. I wonder if one of my sisters talked him into taking it off. This pisses me off beyond belief.
“Well I was sleeping in only my sweats when I woke up to the smell of smoke and ran down stairs. That’s when I realized that Marie had burnt some bacon. I told them I could cook so they threw this apron me and I got to it.” He says all this without looking at me once but I can tell he’s trying not to laugh by the way his shoulders slightly shake.
“And imagine my surprise when he actually made something good. I haven’t ever met a man who could actually cook. He puts my prize winning bacon to shame.” Sarah says taking a sip of her coffee.
Curious I pick up a piece from the plate sitting on the black marble counter top. Yeah that’s freaking good. “How is it I didn’t know you could cook Declan?”
“Oh that would be because I haven’t ever had the chance to cook for you, Beautiful.” He replies from his place in front of the stainless steel stove.
Jessica who is sitting on one of the stools that Sarah has next to the center island looks at me and mouths “Beautiful?” I nod and sit next to hear whispering in her ear it’s one of my nicknames. I guess he let it slip. He’s going to have to watch that.
Before long the twins are down eating everything in sight. It doesn’t take long for Sarah to put all the young men to work. I hurry out of the kitchen into the living room before I have to pill potatoes or stuff the turkey.
My dad is sitting in his favorite chair watching the parade on TV. This makes me smile. We used to curl up in his chair every year since my mom died and watch it. So that is exactly what I do. “Why didn’t you come and get me?”
“You were busy in the kitchen eating. I knew you would find your way here before long.” He says tucking me under his arm as I curl against his chest. My dad likes to run so it keeps him in shape. There’s no fat on him and his blue eyes are still full of life even though his hair is starting to turn grey.
“That is no excuse! We always watch the parade together.” I pout.
He squeezes me to him and kisses the top of my head. “I know baby girl. I didn’t have the heart to pull you away from your boyfriend in there.”
I stiffen up. “How did you know he is my boyfriend?”
He chuckles. “Because you two can’t keep your eyes off each other when you’re in the same room. That boy looks up the second you walk into the room like he could feel you coming. That’s a real connection right there. I don’t want you to pass that up.”
“Wow daddy I didn’t realize you were so deep.” I give him a shit eating grin.
He smacks me on the arm. “Well I did
n’t do horrible things to Sarah and get her to stay with me, without being so deep as you say. You still have to keep up the charm and cleverness to be with a woman like that.”
“I always wondered how you got her to stay with you. I don’t think I could be that strong and forgive anybody for what you did.”
“You would be surprised the things you would do for those you love. Maybe one day you will hear her side but mine is good enough for now. I may have slept with someone else outside of my marriage but I still loved Sarah. I will love that woman till the day I die and nothing will ever change that. We had several problems going on at the time baby girl. Your mother was just a comfort I took and look where it got me? You and I couldn’t ask for anything better. You’re the reason alone I would never regret my actions. I just regret what I put Sarah through.”
“So are you saying that it’s her fault?” I ask confused.
“No baby girl. It’s my fault that I slept with someone else. I’m human and every human makes mistakes. It’s just up to the person who made that mistake to let it rule their lives or put it behind them and go on. We couldn’t ever just forget it though because there is you. But we did work past it and now we are stronger than ever.”
We fall into a comfortable silence and I can’t help but think if it’s a mistake or not to keep my relationship with Declan secret from Jaden.
Declan
I spent all Thanksgiving day in the kitchen helping Mrs. Harper and her daughters cook dinner. Jaden, Caden, and Marcus helped but mostly they did the stuff we didn’t want to do. I haven’t seen much of Teagan or Grace for that matter. Caden got covered in flour at one point and went to take a shower and came back in the weirdest mood. Normally he is talkative and playful after that he was silent and lost in thought. I seemed to be the only one who noticed.
An hour or so before dinner was served three older guys came in. Two holding babies. The little girl had to be Hailey. Teagan talks about her all the time. Which means the blonde is Forest her oldest brother. He certainly doesn’t seem to get the giant gene like Jaden and Caden did. He is slender and slightly muscled. The other two guys must be Max and Cody the in laws. And the little boy would be Jessica’s boy Jason. I haven’t had much experience with kids so I didn’t take much interest in them.
Before long every male in the house ended up in the living room watching the game. Mr. Harper kept giving me weird looks and I seriously can’t tell you what that was about. I hope he doesn’t know about his daughter and I.
Now I find myself sitting at this huge mahogany table in the dining room, which I might add sits about twelve which is one more than we need. I got seated across from Teagan which is fine by me. I can look at her all night. Then of course I had to sit in between the twins who aren’t even talking to each other now. The tension between those two is coming off in waves and I really don’t like being in the middle of it.
“So Declan what are your plans for after college?” Mr. Harper asks me from the head of the table.
“I plan on being a lawyer sir.” I tell him hoping that is a good enough answer. Though I have no idea why I’m the one being questioned.
“That’s a good profession to go into. How serious are you about it?”
“I have wanted to be a lawyer for a while now sir. I want to work in the district attorney’s office and help out those who can’t afford a high paid one.”
“Well I think you will fit in nicely around here then son. This lot likes to help out those who really truly need it.”
“Thank you sir. And Jaden has told me plenty about the great work that Mrs. Harper and your children do. I’m truly honored to be staying here for Thanksgiving vacation.”
Conversation went all over the place after that. Everyone talking to each other and over each other. It was a lot to take in. At one point I had four different people ask me four different questions. I was happy when dinner was over and we moved the party into the living room. Apparently it was tradition to play games after dinner.
I stood outside the room in the door way as Jessica and Marie pulled out a game system from the entertainment center. Here I am thinking that they are going to play video games. No that’s not what these lovely people had in mind. One word…karaoke.
The rules were that everyone had to go. Either you sang by yourself or you got to pick a partner. Since Grace, Marcus, and I were new to this we got to go first. Marcus and I threw Grace into the wolves and decided to do All My Life by Boyz 2 Men. We got cat calls and woots from the crowd even though neither one of us can carry a tune.
Jessica took pity on Grace and got up to sing Girls Just Want to Have Fun by Cindy Lopper doing silly little 80s dances. Next up were Cody and Max who sang Back in Black by AC/DC while playing air guitar. Forest and Caden got up next and belated out a lovely rendition of I Kissed a Girl by Katy Perry which got lots of laughs. I knew Jaden could sing so I wasn’t surprised he got up there by himself and sang Call Me by Shinedown that had his mother in tears. Mr. and Mrs. Harper went next singing Jackson by June Carter and Johnny Cash. I thought it was odd that Teagan went last but oh it didn’t take long to figure it out.
She got up on the makeshift stage and picked out her song. She started singing and I liked to have died. She had been keeping a big secret from me. This tiny little thing could sing like a five hundred pound woman. She kept eye contact with me the entire song and I had to cross my legs and hope no one noticed my hard on. Seems I always have one of those when she’s around. That or I’m too easily turned on.
I finally learned where she got the tattoo from. The song is called Speechless and it’s by Lady Gaga. She did the beautiful singer justice. She never missed a note and the song had a Smokey café kind of feel that Teagan pulled off with her smoky throaty voice. The song itself was beautiful. Lines like “And I'll never love again, I'll never write a song, won’t even sing along, I’ll never love again.” There is even a part where the girl in the song gets her brother to beat up her boyfriend. They even wire his jaw shut. That hits a little close to home.
I can’t help but think I’ll never own my own heart again. Teagan stole it with her beautiful voice and sexy body and with her outgoing personality and big caring heart. With those emerald eyes that see into my soul. I don’t think I will ever love again. I lay in Marie’s old bed and I know deep in my soul that she is it for me.
Chapter 16
Teagan
I feel like I haven’t gotten to see Declan at all since we got here. I miss him a lot. The way his chocolate eyes twinkle when he sees me. How his body feels pressed up against mine. Or the way he knows exactly what to say to make me feel better. I can’t believe that I’m lucky enough to have his attention. He is such a wonderful guy and he doesn’t judge me for anything I do. He is always there if I need someone to talk to or a shoulder to cry on. I love the way he is with his brother. He would do anything for him; hell from what I’ve heard he practically raised him. I can’t imagine what he had to go through. I guess that goes to show you it doesn’t take great parents to make a great person.
The word love keeps popping into my head every time I even think of Declan. I’ve never been in love but I wonder if this is what I’m feeling. I think about him all the time. He makes me want to be a better person. The way he looks at me like I’m the most beautiful girl in the world. I don’t even have to do my hair or put on makeup for that look. What we have is special something I have never encountered before. I do realize that I haven’t ever been in another relationship but what daddy said earlier has my mind spinning. I do feel when he walks into the room and my eyes immediately look for him. I don’t even have to touch him for sparks to fly between us. If that’s not love then I don’t know what is.
That’s how I find myself sneaking down the hall to the room he’s staying in. That’s also when I noticed the door for the room Grace is in opening. I hurry into the hall bathroom when I realize that it isn’t Grace leaving her room but Caden. What the hell?
Shaki
ng my head I wait for him to make it back to his own room before tiptoeing on to Declan. After opening the door as quietly as possible I sneak in. The only light is from the moon coming in through the window. I wait for a minute for my eyes to adjust to the darkness. When I can make out his form I start to get short of breath.
He’s on his stomach wearing only a pair of black boxer briefs. I wonder if he got too hot since he has kicked the covers off. He’s got one of the pillows hugged to his head with his arms wrapped around it. I almost feel bad since I’m going to wake him up because he just looks so peaceful. I love to watch him sleep, his face gets so expressive. I’ve seen him smile or scrunch up his face. He even grunts and groans. I laugh softly to myself. What an expressive dreamer.
As I start to creep to the bed he flips over to his back and I almost faint. My breathing is even more ragged. The moonlight makes his muscled torso look even sexier. He looks like he needs to be ravished. And lucky me he has turned on his back because that makes it easier for what I want to do to wake sleeping handsome up.
I finally make it to the bed without waking him. I place one leg gently on the bed when that results in nothing I place the other next to the first. I gently run my index finger down his groin. He’s soft of course but I plan on changing that. I continue to run my finger up and down his length and slowly feel it harden. He softly moans in his sleep while his hips twitch. I slowly take his hardness out of his undies and bend over to lick it up and down. Now I haven’t done this before because he won’t let my mouth anywhere near his dick. Something about taking advantage of me. Well two could play at that game I won’t let his mouth anywhere near my privates. That just seemed to piss him off.
