you don’t want me there, it’s fine. We just met.”
“It’s not that.”
“Then what?”
“I—I just don’t want to scare you off. Meeting my family is a big deal. I don’t want to pressure you.”
He put down his sandwich. “You mean that?”
“Well, yeah.”
He grabbed my face and kissed me. “I would love to meet your family, but under one condition.”
“What?”
“You introduce me as your boyfriend.”
I smiled. “Really?”
“Yeah. I’ve fallen hard for you, Sadie. I did the moment I saw you in that bar.”
I felt my heart squeeze in my chest. I couldn’t believe that this gorgeous man had such strong feelings for me. Perhaps he felt the way I did. The feeling was there the moment we met. I had fallen hard for Ethan too. I was already in love with him. I really didn’t know him, but it was true nonetheless. “What’s your last name?”
He raised an eyebrow. “Benedict. Why?”
“I just realized I didn’t know your last name.”
He smiled. “What’s yours?”
“Montague.”
“That’s beautiful.”
“Thanks.”
“We’re getting there.” Ethan grabbed his sandwich and started to eat it.
I unwrapped mine and watched him. I didn’t have an appetite at the moment. “Ethan?”
“Hmm?”
“I want to have sex.”
He stopped chewing for a moment while he stared at me. Then he swallowed his food and wiped his mouth with a napkin. “You do?” He couldn’t hide the excitement in his voice.
“Yeah.”
“Are you sure?”
I grabbed his face and kissed him deeply. His lips tasted sweet against my mouth. I felt a fire ignite with every caress of his tongue. I pulled away. “I’m very certain.”
He smiled at me. “Let’s see how tonight goes.”
“Why? Come over after work.”
He closed his eyes for a moment then opened them. A quiet moan escaped his lips. “You have no idea how much I want you, Sadie. You can’t talk to me like that. At least not yet.”
“Why are you apprehensive of me?”
“Like I said—I really care about you. I don’t want to mess up what we have.”
“We won’t.”
“We’ll talk about it later.” He grabbed his sandwich and continued to eat it. I ate mine while we stood at the counter. When we were done, he looked at his watch. “I have to go.”
I sighed. I hated it when he left. I walked around the counter and wrapped my arms around his neck, kissing him deeply. Now that I kissed him once, I didn’t want to stop. I wanted him all the time. I couldn’t wait until we were finally together. It would be the most amazing experience of my life.
Ethan ran his fingers through my hair as he kissed me. I could feel his body against my chest, strong and powerful. When I imagined him naked, I felt the arousal course through my limbs. An innocent goodbye kiss had escalated into a session of foreplay.
“Ah-hem,” my father said as he cleared his throat.
Ethan pulled away quickly and dropped his hands. I felt my cheeks redden in embarrassment. We were getting hot and heavy just a second ago and my father watched the whole thing.
Ethan cleared his throat. “It was nice to meet you, Mr. Montague.”
“Likewise,” my father said with a smile.
He turned to me. “I’ll see you later, baby.”
I smiled. “Bye.”
“I’ll see you at dinner,” he said as he walked out the door. I watched him walk by until he disappeared from the sight of the windows. I had a huge smile on my face. I had a boyfriend. Ethan was my boyfriend. I loved him and I had a strong feeling that he loved me too.
My father smiled at me. “That was a nice suit.”
I knew what my father was really asking. “He works on Wall Street.”
He nodded in approval. “Does he know Jared?”
“I don’t know. I’ve never asked. It’s a big company.”
“I’m excited to get to know him, Sadie.”
“I think you’ll like him.”
“Well, now I know what you were smiling about all day.”
I felt my cheeks blush. “Yeah.”
