"I know," he breathed.
"No, there's no way that's when it started." Raelyn was sure she would have noticed. Or at least sure he would have made some kind of move in the last fifteen years.
"Maybe not for you.”
"Why didn't you…" The words caught in her throat as she racked her brain for some sort of sign she must have missed.
Quinn's breathing had gone still, as if he were holding his breath, wondering if he'd made a mistake in telling her.
It wasn't a mistake. Just a shock. Why hadn't he told her before? Sure, her feelings for him hadn't started at thirteen, but by fifteen she was at least becoming more interested in the prospect of boys as more than friends. She was a late bloomer in that regard. Most of her early friendships were with boys, so it had taken her a while to see them in any other way. It was the summer before their sophomore year before it hit her how physically attractive he was becoming, but even then she'd tried her best to have strictly platonic feelings toward him. Therewere plenty of other girls interested in him and she didn't feel like inserting herself into that competition only to come out on the other end having lost a friend. Of course, if he'd expressed interest earlier, there's a good chance she would've taken the risk. Perhaps that's whyhehadn't tried harder. Their friendship was worth too much to risk. But to hold it inthatlong?
Quinn slid her back to the ground while her brain swam with thoughts of their childhood, their history, and now. She found herself looking up at him, trying to figure out what to say. The pleading look he was giving her told her that she needed to say something. Was he waiting to hear she'd felt that way all that time, too? Words were failing her. What was the correct response here? If words wouldn’t work, she knew one language that would be sure to let him know exactly how she felt.
Her arms flew around his neck and she pulled him back in for another kiss. She pressed her mouth harder to his this time, slipping her tongue through his lips and meeting his, making him growl deep in his chest. Goosebumps popped up onto her skin, while simultaneously feeling hot and flushed all over.
Quinn pulled her back up so she could wrap her legs around his waist again. Tangling her fingers in his hair, she pulled him further into her kiss and rocked her hips against him. She wanted him. And she was sure she'd never wanted anything or anyone else more in her life. This amazing, sweet, talented, sexy man had wanted her since they were both just kids. He'd never wavered in that, and tonight he made that perfectly clear.
It felt like there were years of lost kisses and touches and heated moments to make up for. Maybe it wasn't possible to pack fifteen years’ worth of missed opportunities into one night, but she was certainly going to try.
Raelyn's eyes were closed as Quinn carried her back to the Bronco, lips never parting. Dear God, she was already wet and they'd only been kissing. Hard metal pressed up against her back as Quinn pushed her against the passenger door. Their lips were pink and swollen fromkissing so hard. Raelyn let out a gasp as Quinn began kissing down her jaw to her neck. His hot breath covered her jaw before he switched sides, licking and kissing and sucking at her skin. He held her steady with one strong arm and slid the other up her skirt, massaging and caressing her thigh.
Head lolling back onto the window of the truck, Raelyn savored the feel of Quinn's mouth moving from her neck down to the swell of her breasts. He lay a few soft kisses across her chest before returning his attention to her lips. As he slid his tongue between her lips, she felt a practiced finger slide into her lace thong and she gasped again, letting out a small whimper.
His finger traced down her wet sex and he whispered in her ear, "Jesus, Rae, you're so fucking wet for me already."
Heat radiated up her neck from her chest as her nipples went taut. She loved the sound of his voice when he said those words. Her breathing was coming in shallow and fast, eyes closed, face turned toward the sky.
He slipped his finger inside her and another pleasured moan escaped her. His thumb found her clit and began rubbing it in circles. Raelyn's legs tightened their grip around his waist, needing him further inside her.
"Look at me," Quinn's voice was low and smooth, like a purr in Raelyn's ear. "Rae, baby, I want you to look at me while I make you come."
Oh my God.
Raelyn opened her eyes and looked into Quinn's. They had darkened from gold to bronze as he held her gaze, making her feel like she could melt in his arms.
Oh God, he knows what he's doing.
Quinn's finger slid in and out of her as he worked her clit, then two solid fingers filled her.
"Oh my god,Quinn," Raelyn breathed, struggling to keep eye contact as her eyes fought to roll back.
"Mmm, you like that, baby? Just wait until it's my cock filling up this tight pussy." Quinn nipped playfully at her ear.
Raelyn rocked her hips against Quinn's hand, determined to be taken over the edge. His filthy mouth was doing almost as good of a job as his fingers at getting her there. He pulled his fingers slowly out then back in, pressing them further, finding her G-spot as he put more pressure on her clit. His pace quickened and she was there, just on the edge of ecstasy.
"Yes, Quinn, oh, fuck yes," Raelyn cried through harsh breaths.
"Goddamn, I love hearing my name like that," Quinn groaned.
A smirk played across Raelyn's lips as she touched them to his ear and moaned, "Quinn...you're gonna make me come...yes,Quinn."
With a growl, Quinn's fingers worked harder, faster until Raelyn cried out, yelling his name into the night air as she shook with her orgasm. She clung to him, digging her nails into his back, moving her hips as the waves kept coming. She rested her forehead to his as her breaths shuddered through her, finally letting her eyes flutter closed.
When Quinn put her back on the ground, her thighs were still shaking and she needed to lean up against the door for support.
With a sweet kiss to her lips Quinn grinned and said, "Part four awaits." He opened the passenger door and gestured for Raelyn to get in.
"There's more?" Raelyn asked, breathless.
