Chapter 26
Sherry
“I was wondering how long it was going to take you to come and say hello Rex.”
“I had to get away. It hasn’t been easy.”
He moved towards me and I giggled with the look in his eyes. It was clear what he wanted and that was just as well, because I wanted the same thing. It had been almost two weeks since our ride back to Hartford ad I missed him. My body missed him more than anything else, but I was stubborn and I wasn’t going to beg him. I wasn’t going to be the one that contacted him first and it had felt like a lifetime that I waited to hear from him.
“Well you could have called. You made me think that you had forgotten about me Rex.”
I was trying my hardest to pout, but it was an almost impossible thing to do when he was pulling his shirt over his head and getting closer to me. Soon he would get his hands on me and I would be lost to all of it.
“How could I forget about you Sherry?”
“Well you have a lot going on lately Rex, so I guess I just figured that you would move on. It is kind of your thing and you are surrounded by beautiful girls all day long. It just seems to be the inevitable thing that is bound to happen.”
He finally got to me and he pulled me to him by a tight hold on the waist of my pants. I gasped as I hit his chest and I knew that there was nothing else that I wanted to do but be with him. I wanted to kiss him and when he leaned down to do just that, no part of me wanted to tell him no. He was the man that I had waited for all of this time and I know that I am going to ruin it if I overthink it too much.
His lips were demanding and before long I forgot how to speak, let alone what I was supposed to say.
“You are all that I want Sherry. You have to know that. I haven’t even thought about another woman, only you. I don’t know what you have done to me, but this is the only body I want to feel against me, the only lips that I want to kiss.”
As he said it, his lips moved down to mine and gave me the sweetest kiss that I had had in a while. There was something about the way he kissed me and his words that made me think for a moment that we could really be something great. There were a million reasons why it couldn’t work, but I was still focused on the reasons that it could. Maybe I was just being naïve, but for those few moments, I felt like maybe there was a real chance for us.
Then he was pushing me down onto the soft bed and covering me with his hard body. I had no more time to think of anything beyond his touch. I moved my legs wide to let him through and gasped as he entered inside of me.
Nothing else mattered then. Only the man inside of me that made me feel whole again.

“So has your brother been acting strange around you?”
“Charlie has always been a little strange, so you are going to have to be more specific than that.”
I pulled on one of the chest hairs that kept curling against my nose. He was always so damn sexy, but the soft pelt of hair on his chest made me giggle. I finally sat up, not able to stand the soft tickles any longer.
“Where are you going?”
“Nowhere, I just need to put some distance between us or I am never going to be able to leave.”
“Maybe that is the plan.”
“It’s a good plan. So what were you saying about Charlie?”
“Just that he has been acting kind of funny. He is acting like he knows something and I was wondering if he had said anything to you.”
“He asked me if there was something going on between us.”
Rex looked shocked and I wasn’t sure how to react. I didn’t take it as that big of a deal, but it was clear to me that he did.
“He asked you that?” The man sounded like he was choking and I felt bad for him all of a sudden.
“Yes, but I told him that nothing was going on and that was that.”
“That was that?”
“Yes, why do you have to make such a big deal about it? It was just a question and I made sure that I steered him away from that. I am sure it is not even thought about anymore.”
“When was this?”
“When he picked me up and brought me back here.”
Now Rex was the one that was sitting up and it seemed like our moment of sexy time was over. The wedge that stood between us reared its ugly head and didn’t even have to be present for it. It was a shame, it really was.
“I think you are making too much of it.”
“Do you know what your brother will do if he found out about us?”
I shrugged. He would get mad, but he couldn’t stay mad forever. He would get over it eventually, I was sure of it.
“It’s not that big of a deal. We are both adults.”
“Yeah, but you are his little sister. He wouldn’t understand.”
