Page 68 of Emily: Hello Kitten
As our breathing steadies, he intertwines his fingers with mine and gives them a gentle nudge. A smile spreads as I lean closer and follow as we go to the bathroom for a quick rinse.
There are no words. It isn’t even needed as his hands brush over my wet skin, nor as I do the same, memorizing every pec, every curve.

By the time we’re in the days before fall break, I finally feel like Adrian and I can work. We’ve spent time together without having sex. We’ve had plenty of dangerous, kinky, risky sex where we could have gotten caught, but didn’t, and I still like him through it all.
“Beth left,” I say over the phone as I lie with my head off my bed, kicking my feet in the air. “I think that means fall break has officially started.”
I can hear the smile in his voice. “Are you excited to have a break, Emily?”
“Well, I think one professor has been going easy on me, so the semester so far has been good,” I tease.
“You know I don’t do that,” he sighs. “Are you going home for break?”
“I haven’t before. You’ve met my family. Would you want to spend a whole five days with them?” I snort. “I went home for just Thanksgiving last year and didn’t last three hours. Wasn’tworth the drive. I texted and said I wasn’t going since I’d just seen everyone, and nothing has changed.”
“Is that what you want?” he asks.
“What I would really like is for the man I’m dating to ask me to come over for the weekend since midterms were just so hard,” I say with an obvious pout in my voice.
“My poor Kitten.”
“And I know he can fuck me harder,” I say with a laugh.
“Mmm, considering the sticky note you left on your essay, maybe I should beat your ass. Then again, since you got an A, maybe I should reward you,” he muses.
“I do really like your rewards,” I hum. “Especially if that reward means coming to get me and taking me away for the weekend.”
“Are youtemptingme, Kitten?” he rumbles.
“Tempting you would be telling you I’m only wearing a towel in my dorm room with all the windows open,” I purr. “And just hearing your voice makes me want to touch myself.”
“Don’t you dare, Kitten. You touch yourself and you don’t get to come until school starts again,” he snaps.
“You wouldn’t be able to resist,” I sigh, then give an over the top, porn-style moan.
He groans. “Even a fake moan in your voice sounds good. Pack a bag. You’re not leaving my house until Friday at the earliest.”
“How long do I have?”
“As long as it takes me to drive there,” he says sharply before hanging up.
I chuckle and hurry. I pack a bag quickly, then pull on a sweater and leggings without bothering with underwear. By the time I’m ready with my basics and things I might need, it’s been more than fifteen minutes. I know the drive between our houses isn’t that long.
Walking outside, I wait for him to show. As soon as his car pulls up, I start walking forward until a whistle distracts me. My sister waves her arm high, then skips over. “Emily!”
At least three students look over. The opposite of what we need. But Adrian doesn’t move from his spot. I consider putting my shit in and hurrying off, but I know Sarah. She’ll follow.
Swallowing, I force a smile and accept her hug. She giggles. “Come on, we are going to have fun for break.”
“Aren’t you on your honeymoon?” I ask softly.
“We had a nice three-week honeymoon. That was more than enough. We were both itching to get back to work,” she waves off. “Where’s your sweet—”
“He’s waiting for me,” I say. “I said I wasn’t coming home.”
“I know. I was sent to change your mind. Come. Mom and Dad will behave. You can even bring your boyfriend. Prove our parents wrong. Show them—”
