Quake: #8 The Beat and The Pulse
Page 20
“So,” Caleb went on, pressing the button for the ground floor, “have you made a decision yet?”
“You only asked me to move in with you this morning,” I complained. “I said I would have to think about it.”
“You’ve had five hours. That’s plenty.” He winked, a devilish grin on his face.
“Isn’t it a little fast?” I asked with a frown.
“Pfft,” Caleb said, rolling his eyes. “You’re worried about moving too fast? After what we’ve been through?”
He had a point. After the mountain of shit we’d climbed, not even an earthquake could break us apart.
“You’re sure? Like, really sure?”
“Jules.” His grip tightened on mine.
I sighed. “Yeah, yeah, I know. Stop doubting every little thing.”
I still had a lot of work ahead of me, but I’d had a good head start. I’d come to depend on some negative behaviors to cope with Melanie’s death, and breaking them would take time.
The elevator doors opened, and we stepped out into the foyer, navigating around a group of people going up.
“So?” he asked, caging me against his chest. “What’ll it be?”
“You won’t let up, will you?”
“Not until you say yes.”
I stifled a laugh. “Man, you’re so needy.”
Caleb grinned and planted a kiss on my lips. “Imagine waking up with my hard cock against your ass every morning. A guaranteed orgasm every night of the week. Hell, every morning, too. Imagine us in the shower together. All soapy and slick…” He paused, raising an eyebrow in thought. “I think I’m actually making myself hard right now.”
I burst out into laughter, a wave of happiness washing over me. It felt so profound it almost made my heart burst.
“Yeah,” I said, wrapping my arms around his neck. “I’ll move in with you.”
He let out a triumphant whoop and caught my mouth with his. Kissing me deeply, we attracted a few whistles from passing suits. He pulled away, looking like the happiest man on the planet.
My heart swelled at the sight of him. I’d done that. Me, bookish, plain Juliette Spicer. How far we’d come.
Caleb winked, flashing a roguish grin. “It was the guaranteed orgasms that sealed the deal, wasn’t it?”
