“Julie,” he said, as he looked out into the hallway. “How did you get here? I told you'd I'd be back in the morning.”
“I couldn't wait until morning,” she said. “My dad brought me.”
“Your dad?” he asked.
“Yes,” she answered. “He was totally on your side.”
“Really?” he asked. “On my side.”
“Yes,” she said, as she took a step toward him. “I'm so sorry, Cody. I'm sorry for asking about you and my sister. I'm sorry that Jason was an asshole. I'm sorry I walked away from you the night of your event without talking to you first. I'm sorry for everything.”
“He told you he loved you, Julie,” Cody said.
“He did,” Julie replied, as she took a step toward him, “but I told him I didn't love him back, not like that.”
“He said it used to be him you wanted. Is that true?” Cody asked.
“When I was sixteen, I had a crush on him, or at least I thought I did,” she answered honestly. “He was my best friend, and I didn't want him to leave. Those feelings are gone, Cody. They've been gone for years. He doesn't love me. He just doesn't like that I'm not sitting by the phone, waiting for his call. We're best friends, but that's all.”
“Do you want to come in?” Cody asked.
“No,” Julie answered.
“No,” he said, with shock in his tone.
“Get your stuff,” she said.
“I'm not going to your parents',” he said. “Not tonight.”
“That's not where we're going,” Julie said, as she walked by him and into his room.
He hadn't been there long, so his bag was still on the bed.
“Is this everything?” she asked. “What about your laptop?”
“I didn't bring it,” he answered.
“You didn't bring your laptop?” she asked, unsure that she'd heard him correctly.
“I didn't,” he answered.
“Wow!” she said, as she grabbed his bag and then walked by him again. “Let's go.”
“Julie,” he said, as he reached out to stop her. “It's Thanksgiving. You should be with your family.”
“You're the one I want to be with. Let's go home,” she said.
“Home?” he asked.
“Yes,” she answered. “Your home.”
Then she reached into his front pocket and pulled out his keys.
“You better hurry up,” she said, with a smile. “Your ride is leaving.”
“You wouldn't,” he said, as he narrowed his eyes at her.
“Watch me,” she said.
With his bag in one hand and his keys in the other, Julie turned away from him and headed for the elevator.
She watched Cody hurry back inside.
“You've got five minutes,” she yelled out, just as the elevator doors closed with her inside.
When the doors opened in the lobby and she stepped out, two strong arms wrapped around her, and she let out a loud squeal.
“Nice try,” Cody said, as he let her down and quickly snatched his keys from her hand. “Just for that, no driving for you.”
“Cody,” she whined, as she tried to get the keys back.
“You sure you don't want to stay?” he asked. “I've already paid for the room.”
“I'm sure,” she said, as a smile filled her face. “I want to be home with you.”
“Then that's where we'll be,” he said, as he headed for the front desk.
When Cody walked out of the hotel, Julie was standing next to his car.
“Are you sure I can't drive?” she asked.
Julie watched Cody walk to the passenger side door and open it. Then he motioned for her to get in. As soon as she was close enough to reach, he grabbed the bag from her hand and threw it into the car. Then he pulled her close and stepped forward until her back was against the cool metal.
“Holding on by a fucking thread, Julie. Been doing that shit since I first saw you this morning. Some of it out of anger, and some of it out of pure love. The thought of taking you back to my place has my cock so damn hard,” he said, as he thrust his hips forward, so she could feel for herself that he meant what he'd just said. “We're going home, to my place, as fast as possible, and the second we get there, I'm going to claim you as mine. When I do, it won't be slow and soft, not one bit. It will be hard, fast, and so fucking deep.”
Cody's hand moved up, wrapped around the back of her neck, and his mouth crashed down on hers. When he pulled away, she gasped for air.
“Get in,” he demanded.
With her body still plastered against the car, she slid over and dropped down onto the seat. Cody waited for her to pull her legs, that felt like jelly, in with her. Then he closed the door.
“Damn,” she whispered, as she rubbed her lips while watching him walk around the front of the car, hoping with everything in her that he'd get them home as fast as possible.
Neither of them spoke, as Cody weaved in and out of traffic, getting them there safely and in record time.
Julie paid attention to where they were as he pulled into the parking garage of a huge apartment building. He got out of the car, hurried around to her side, and opened her door. When she got out, he reached in quickly to grab their bags. Then he closed the door, grabbed her hand, and pulled her toward the elevator.
The second the door closed behind them, he hit the button for the top floor. Then he turned toward her, stepped forward, and slammed her back against the wall.
“Cody,” she whisper moaned, as he grabbed the back of her head and took her mouth hard with his.
When she heard the door open, Cody took a step back, took her hand in his, and walked out into a very short hallway. He turned to the right, stuck a key in the lock, and opened the door.
“After you,” he said, as he motioned for her to walk ahead of him.
Julie took the first few steps in before her feet froze in place.
“It's beautiful,” she said, as she took in the enormous place surrounding her. “Do you even use half of it?”
Cody let out a loud laugh, pulling her from the deep moment she was just diving into.
“Seriously,” she said. “My entire apartment could fit in your entryway, and we have three people living in it. You only have one.”
Cody laughed again, and she narrowed her eyes at him.
“I'm so embarrassed,” she said, as she turned away from him.
“What?” he asked. “Why?”
“You've spent so many hours at my place,” she said. “I can't even imagine the things you thought while you were there.”
“I thought about how smart you were, how sweet you were, how beautiful you were, and most of all how damn sexy you were,” he said, as he set their bags down and walked toward her. “There were days I wanted you so fucking bad that I could barely keep my shit together.”
“Cody,” Julie whispered, as he came closer.
“Julie,” he said, in the sexiest tone, as he took the final step toward her. “You can believe me when I say the last thing on my mind was the size of your place.”
The next thing Julie knew, Cody bent down, threw her over his shoulder, and took off through the dining area and down a hallway.
“Cody,” she squealed, as she slapped at his back. “Put me down.”
He walked by a few doors before kicking one open and moving into the room, throwing the door closed behind them. Before she could say anything else, she fell back onto a soft cloud, and he stood above her.
“I waited so damn long to finally have you,” he said, as he looked down at her like she was the only woman in the whole world and he'd been starved for years. “Then you were gone. It's been pure hell, Julie. If it weren't for Jessie, I would have gone mad. She told me it would work out, and I'm so damn glad she was right.”
Julie watched him grab her legs and pull her to the end of the bed. Then he leaned forward, undid the button and zipper on her pants, and wasted no time pulling the fabric down her legs.
Cody dropped to his knees and spread her legs wide. When his mouth landed over her white panties and she felt the heat of his breath through them, she bit her bottom lip to hold back a moan.
“No you don't,” he said, as he looked into her eyes while he grabbed the thin material. Giving it one good yank, he ripped it from her skin. “I want to hear every sexy moan you have for me. I want to hear you crying out in pleasure, and most of all, I want to hear you screaming my name at the top of your lungs when you come around my tongue, my fingers, and my cock.”
“Cody,” Julie whimpered, wanting to feel him inside of her more than she'd ever wanted anything before. “Please.”
Cody kept his eyes on hers as he leaned forward and put his tongue on her.
“Fuck,” she whispered.
He reached forward and rubbed her clit as his tongue swirled around her entrance. Then he spread her wide and thrust his tongue in.
Julie's back came off of the bed, as her hands clutched the soft blanket beneath her.
“Cody,” she cried out, as his tongue hit deep inside of her. “Oh, fuck.”
He began moving his finger faster and with more pressure, and she couldn't take it. Julie's head fell back and her eyes closed. She felt his tongue moving out and back into her over and over, as she climbed closer and closer to the edge. Her hips began moving in rhythm with his tongue, and she was right there, ready to explode.
“Can't wait, baby,” she heard his words and felt them vibrate against her. “Need to be inside of you. Need your sweet heat. Need to feel you wrapped around my cock.”
Julie opened her eyes and looked down just as Cody thrust two fingers into her.
“Oh, Cody,” she cried out.
His mouth came down on her clit. His fingers hit her deep. Her back came off the bed.
“So good,” she cried out. “Cody.”
Julie felt her whole body lock up as she came so hard around his fingers, but he didn't stop. His fingers kept moving in and out, as she rode out the best orgasm she'd had yet.
When Julie's body finally began to relax, Cody pulled his fingers from her and lifted them to his mouth to suck them clean. Then he got to his feet.
Julie watched as Cody undid his jeans and shoved them down his legs. She sat up and watched as he slowly slid his boxers down. When his cock sprang free, she felt her tongue shoot out and slide across her lips. Without even thinking, she slid to the floor in front of him and reached up, wrapping her hand around his length.
“Damn,” she hissed, as she felt his soft, yet very hard, velvety skin in her hand.
“Have you ever?” he began but stopped when she shook her head. “Fuck, Julie.”
She looked up into his eyes. Then she leaned forward and licked him from his base all the way up to his tip. Her tongue swirled around it. Then she opened her mouth and slowly took him into it.
“Julie,” he let out from deep in his chest, which only turned her on more.
With her hand wrapped around his shaft and her mouth surrounding him, she began moving up and down him. His hand came out of nowhere and gripped her hair tight. Then he began moving her up and down his length.
“Suck hard, baby,” he demanded, and she did.
Julie moved him in and out of her mouth faster and deeper. When she felt him tap the back of her throat, he moaned the sexiest damn moan, and she sucked him hard.
His hands grabbed under her arms and pulled her off of him and to her feet.
“Cody,” she said, with sadness in her eyes.
“It was fucking perfect, Julie,” he said, as he grabbed the hem of her shirt and pulled it up and over her head. “Don't think it wasn't.”
Cody grabbed the front of her bra and ripped it in two, causing her to cry out. Then he dropped it to the floor. She watched him reach up, grab his shirt at the back of his neck, and pull it over his head. When he stepped forward, she stepped back, and a sexy grin crossed his face. Then he stepped forward again, and she stepped back.
“Believe me,” he said, “you'll have your mouth wrapped around me again, Julie. I can't wait to fill your mouth full, but that has to wait. I need inside you, and I need that now.”
He took another step, and she matched it with one of her own.
“I'm going to make you come again and again before this night is over,” he said.
When he took the next step, and she took hers, her back hit the door.
“Remember what I told you?” he asked, and she shook her head.
Julie let out a yelp when he reached forward, grabbed her ass in his hands, and lifted her. Her legs wrapped around his waist, as she looked into his eyes.
“I told you I wanted you against the door,” he said. “Do you remember that?”
“Yes,” she whispered, as her arms wrapped around his neck.
“You're so damn sexy,” he said, as he lifted her higher.
Julie felt his tip against her entrance, and she closed her eyes.
“Open them,” he demanded.
She opened her eyes back up to find him looking directly at them. Then, without warning, he thrust up into her, and she cried out.
“Fuck!” he gasped. “So tight, baby.”
Julie felt her fingers grip the back of his shoulders hard as her body lifted higher each time he pounded into her.
“Cody,” she cried out, as she slammed back down onto him.
He leaned in, pulled one of her nipples into his mouth, and his teeth scraped against it, as he let it go.
“So fucking good,” he hissed, as he gripped her hips and slammed her body against the door.
She felt his movements quicken, and she couldn't stop from calling out his name again as her head fell back against the door, her eyes closed, and she came even harder than before.
Cody held her in his arms, as he walked her to the bed and let her down. Julie let out a gasp, as he grabbed her hips and, in one fast move, flipped her onto her stomach. When her feet landed on the ground, he grabbed her waist, lifted her up, and again without warning, moved into her deeper than she'd felt him before.
“You're so damn sexy, baby,” he said, as he pulled his hand back and smacked her ass hard.
She let out a yelp and jerked forward, but he grabbed hold of her and pulled her back against him. He pulled most of the way out of her before pounding back in, and she couldn't stop the moan that came out of her. Cody fucked her so damn deep, and she couldn't believe she was on the brink of coming yet again.
“Cody,” she moaned. “Don't stop.”
“Feels so good,” he said. “So fucking good.”
Julie's body moved forward each time he thrust into her. Cody reached forward, grabbed hold of her hair, and twirled it around his hand. When he jerked it, pulling her back against him, and he pounded into her hard and deep, she cried out his name as she felt herself fly over the edge and let go around him.
“Fuck,” Cody hissed out, as he grabbed Julie's hips, pumped into her, growled out her name, and came so damn hard.
Her body fell onto the bed, and his landed on top of hers.
“That was,” she began.
“Nothing compared to what I'm going to do to you for the rest of the weekend,” he said, as he pushed himself up and off of her.
“The whole weekend?” Julie asked, as she crawled up the bed and slid under the blanket.
“Yes,” he answered.
“Won't you have to work?” she asked, fighting hard to keep her eyes open.
“Not at all,” he answered, as he crawled in next to her and pulled her close. “I left my laptop at the office.”
“You what?” she asked, opening her eyes wide and looking up at him.
“I did,” he answered. “This is our weekend, and I plan to have you naked, in my bed, the entire time. I have weeks to make up for.”
Julie shook her head and
laughed.
“Unless you don't want to be here,” he said.
Julie snuggled in against his side, as she rested her head against his chest and wrapped her arm around him.
“This is the only place I want to be,” she said. “I've never felt anything like I do when I'm with you.”
“Neither have I,” he said.
“Cody,” Julie said, just as her eyes were closing. “We have to be more careful.”
“What do you mean?” he asked.
“That's the second time we've been together,” she said. “Neither of those times did you use a condom.”
“Shit!” he let out. “I've never been with anyone without protection before. After being with you like that, so raw and bare, I can't do it. I can't put a barrier between us. How do you feel about getting on the pill?”
“I'm okay with that,” she said, barely keeping her eyes open. “Can you use condoms until then?”
“If that's what you want,” he said.
“Isn't that what you want?” she asked. “You're working so hard to grow your company. I'm sure having a baby isn't on your list of things to do right now. Not to mention the fact that we've only been together twice and haven't even made it a full day as a couple yet.”
Julie felt Cody's hold on her tighten, as he kissed the top of her head. Being in his arms felt so safe and comfortable, and she drifted off to sleep faster than she had in a long time.
When she heard his voice, it sounded so distant, and she knew she was dreaming.
“You're mine,” he said. “I wasn't joking, baby. I'm going to marry you one day.”
If only dreams really did come true, she thought, that would definitely be the one she'd choose.
Chapter 32
Cody
The month between Thanksgiving and Christmas flew by for Cody. Things were going well in every single aspect of his life. It was perfect. Well, almost perfect. There was only one thing he needed to make it complete, and the closer he got to the apartment Julie shared with her sister and her niece, the more nervous he felt and the more he hoped she felt the same way he did.
Cody's company had more work than they could handle, and he was making his way to the top more and more each day.
Julie had been offered another huge job by the company she'd snatched right out from under him and her father, and she'd taken it. When the school had asked her to take on another full semester of teaching, she turned them down. As much as she loved teaching, she loved the idea of owning her own company even more, and Cody couldn't have been more proud of her. She'd even hired on several of the students she'd taught from each semester as interns. When she'd heard their struggles of finding a company to help them gain experience, she'd decided right away what she needed to do, and she'd even gotten Cody to hire some of them as well.
