“I don’t think that’s a good idea.”
“Just five minutes.That’s all I’m asking for, please?”I give in, I guess I can give her five minutes for some closure.As long as she doesn’t try to convince me to take her back and I can get her to accept that things are over, these five minutes will be worth it in the end.She looped her arms through mine and started walking me away from the group.I looked back at the guys, and they were shaking their heads at me in disapproval.
This might be a mistake I’ll regret later.
A minute later we were in the elevator, and she had her arms wrapped around me, trying to kiss me.I shoved her off and told her this was not the reason I agreed to talk to her.She apologized and dropped down on her knees telling me how much she missed me and that she would do anything to have us back the way we were.I grabbed her arms and pulled her up to face me, “Stop, Maggie, get up.”I talked fast, wanting to be done with this confrontation as quickly as possible.I told her that what we had was great while we had it but that it wasn’t meant to be anything more than a high school relationship, we didn’t have a future because she wasn’tthe one.I was through giving her nice ways to break this; that obviously wasn’t doing the trick.I told her it had been over two months since I broke things off and I had no intentions of rekindling theher and Ithat she wanted.
The elevator beeped and the door slid open.I quickly pushed the up button, closing the door and getting us back upstairs to our group, and giving me just enough time to finish this up.When the door opened again, I turned my back on her and walked out, saying goodbye for what I hoped to be the last time.What I didn’t know was that Maggie had other intentions for getting me alone in that elevator.
When I got back to the guys, Ezra asked me if I enjoyed that last rendezvous with Maggie and if the kiss was worth potentially losing the amazing girl that’s waiting for me back at home.
“What are you talking about?”I asked him, “there was no kiss.”
“Didn’t look like that to us.We all saw Maggie walk out after you, she was wiping her mouth and smiling like she had gotten what she wanted.”
“What?!She’s a sick Bitch.”I told him.“I don’t know how many times I’ve had to tell her, nicely and then meanly, that we’re over.I’ve got to get out of here, man, sorry to cut our day short.”I started walking away, toward the mall exit.
“It’s alright, I’ve had about as much as I can take of Liz and Dane all over each other anyways.”He laughed.“Catch a ride?”
“Sure.”I told him and we walked to the parking lot where I parked my mom’s car and headed home.The plan was that Steff and Ellie were going to meet me at home, have dinner at my house and then go back to the apartment.I only had three days until Ellie left and I wanted to spend every last minute with her.

After I dropped Ezra off at his house, I went back home and dropped myself onto the couch next to Dad.He was watching a baseball game on TV and without having to communicate, he handed me the bowl of popcorn, knowing it would help that he was just there with me.We watched the game go into extra innings and I wondered why I didn’t do this with him more often.Just then, the door opened behind me, and I heard her laughter.
She was glowing in that evening light when she walked in through my front door with Steff; the sunset hit the back of her head and turned her brown hair golden.It was just the sight I needed to bring me out of the rotten mood I was still hanging on to from earlier.
And nothing else mattered.
In that moment, she was all there was.
I jumped over the back of the couch and greeted them in the foyer, taking her in my arms and breathing in the scent of her, she smelled of fresh watermelons and summer.She laughed and pecked my neck, “Hey!I missed you too!”
“Today was the longest day ever without you next to me.”I told her.
“Ugh, dude, we were gone for six hours.Gag me!Or get a room, or something.”Steff laughed, putting her hand up to block her eyes from our PDA.
“Hey, that’s a good idea, Steff.”I said to her then a little louder, so Mom could hear me in the kitchen, “Mom, I need to show Ellie something upstairs.”I took her hand and led her upstairs to my room, taking the stairs two at a time.
“Slow down, you’re going to make me trip.”She was giggling, trying to keep up.
We got upstairs and into my room, where I closed and locked the door.“What did you want to show me?”She asked, looking around my room.
“Nothing.I just wanted to get you up here so I could do this.”
I picked her up, wrapping her legs around my waist and pressed her up against the closed door.A cute little noise escaped her mouth as I simultaneously kissed her and pinched her ass, and she smacked my shoulder in return.I licked the tip of her nose, and she scrunched it up, laughing.God, I love this girl.
She tangled her fingers in my hair and her mouth lingered, holding on to my lip and releasing it with a sigh while she opened her eyes and looked into mine.I kept my eyes locked on hers, setting her down onto her feet and slowly, I grazed my hand up her thigh and under her skirt.Feeling the edge of her panties, I hooked my finger in the fabric and pulled them down, letting them fall to the floor.She stepped out of them, and her hands went to my waist, my buckle, my zipper; my shorts were on the floor, followed quickly by the remaining pieces of clothing that separated our bodies.
With my hands on her hips, I guided her and stepped back until I felt the bed behind me and lowered myself onto the edge.She climbed onto my lap, straddling me and I slid into her easily, allowing her warmth to completely wash over me.My hands explored her body, and my lips trailed up her neck as she arched back, taking me in deeper.My tongue met her breasts, and I took her nipple into my mouth, making her hiss.We rocked, our movements in sync with each other, like nothing else existed but the two of us.She moaned and I put a finger over her mouth to keep her from letting everyone in the house know that I just brought her to the breaking point.I watched as her movements slowed, her legs trembled, and I could feel her tightening around me, while the vibrations between us came to an end and she opened her eyes, wearing the most amazing smile I’ve ever seen on her.
“Was that your first…” I began to ask but she interrupted me with a vigorous nod of her head and a huge smile as she ducked her head into my neck.“You mean I actually got to have one of your firsts?”I whispered, and she breathed a laugh into my neck.
I lifted her off my lap and laid her down onto my bed, my body pressed against hers, “That makes me want to make the second one even better.”I tell her, kissing a trail all the way down her collarbone and to her belly button.I pulled myself up so that I could look down on her, her hair flowing off to the side and draped over my pillows.The sight of her like this sends a shock to my body and I leaned down, with a grin on my face and whispered, “Hang on!”
She gasped as I entered her again, pulling her knees up closer to my chest.“Show me where it is, Ellie, I want to find your spot.”I could hear her wince and squeal as I drove deeper into her in search of the right depth that would send her riveting into explosions again.There it was– her legs wrapped around me tightly as she shuddered and dug her nails into my back.When we finished, we laid there, facing each other on our sides, gasping for breath until we heard Mom shout that dinner was ready.
Neither of us could keep a straight face at the dinner table and no one said a thing about my shirt being on backwards.
