Grant takes me over to his house after his mother leaves with Hudson. He’s insisting on paying me despite my multitudinous protests. I really don’t want to take payment, because in a way watching Hudson feels like taking care of a family member. I’ve been able to get my coursework done during his naptimes and Grant is already paying me back by taking care of the outside of the house. This week has gone so smoothly and being over there really isn’t any trouble at all. It feels wrong for me to get money when we can’t afford to pay him back.

Grant leads me inside the house and locks the door behind us. He turns back around and looks at me. I’m still in my bikini top, although I did pull on a pair of athletic shorts before we left my house. His eyes rake over my body, and I watch him as electricity rises in the room. I can feel the heat in the air, and it’s more than just the summer humidity leaking in. Our chemistry is pulsing in the air between us. It’s something we can no longer ignore.

Before I can blink, Grant’s arms are around me and he’s pulling me into a kiss. As soon as his lips touch down on mine, I’m a goner. I know this is wrong, we shouldn’t be feeling this way for each other, especially given our past where he knew me as a child, but somehow that makes it even more delicious. We’ve grown into each other, and nothing in my life has ever felt more perfect and right. His lips are soft and warm, but his rough stubble cuts through the softness to remind me I’m kissing a man. My first ever grown-up kiss, and I never imagined it could taste this good.

My arms go around his neck as he scoops me up into his strong arms and carries me up the stairs. I immediately feel my stomach coil with nerves. Something’s about to happen, and it might be the thing I’ve been fantasizing about ever since I was old enough to know what sex was. Back then, I dreamed about a lanky teenager with adorable dimples and eyes that could make me weak at the knees. Now I dream about this mountain of a man making my body his slave.

Grant carries me into his bedroom and lays me down on his king-sized bed. I look up at his giant body as it looms over mine. His stormy eyes glance down at my breasts, which have risen even higher up my chest with the absence of gravity pulling them down. A deep, guttural groan escapes his throat, and he pulls my chin up so I can’t look away.

“Do you want this?” His gaze is intense as he awaits my answer.

A shudder passes through me as I sigh and nod. “I’ve always wanted this. Please, Grant.”

He lunges for my neck, devouring my tender skin, and I involuntarily arch my back up from the bed. Grant reaches behind me and unties my bikini strings, then he pulls the thin fabric off my body and pulls back to look at my naked breasts.

“So perfect…so lovely…” His hand caresses the curve of my right breast, and then he leans down to make contact with his mouth. As his tongue circles my areola, a whimper slips past my lips. I don’t want to sound desperate, but this feels so good. I’ve been waiting to be touched like this by him for so long. I can’t help it.

“Oh, Grant…please…”

“God, I love hearing you beg me,” he growls. Grant takes my lips with his again and thrusts his tongue into my mouth. My tongue dances the tango with his as his hand moves down toward my shorts. He pulls them down off my legs with ease, and then he starts to tease me by dipping his fingers inside my bikini bottom and running them up and down the ridges between my legs. Intense desire burns me up, and my hips start to shake.

“Oh, God…” My chest heaves, and Grant takes my other breast in his hand and pinches my nipple until it stands erect. Then he sucks on my nipple as he rolls his thumb around my clit. The bundle of nerves, untouched by a man until this very moment, responds with a painful jolt that recedes into pleasure.

Still pleasuring me with his thumb, Grant lets his fingers wander down to my sanctum and inches one inside, cautiously exploring the innermost part of me. As he plunges deeper and deeper inside me, my pulse accelerates. He’s about to discover something that will either make this night magical or painful and embarrassing.

The tip of his finger reaches my membrane, and he stops everything, looking up into my eyes. A slow smile takes over his face, and my heart does a silly dance in my chest. “You’ve never done this before, have you?”

“N-no. I…I want you to be my first.”

The way his eyes widen at that confession makes me burn up on the inside with shame. I can’t believe I just admitted that to him. My deepest, darkest secret all this time has been my crush on him and how it evolved over the years. Now it’s out in the open. I’m naked, bare, in more than just a physical way.

Grant leans down and takes my lips, running his hands up and down the length of my body.

“You were waiting for me, my little playmate? You waited for the big boy next door to come home so he could pop your cherry?”

My body shivers at his dirty words. I can only nod. He covers my lips with his again and then kisses his way down my body until he settles between my legs. I watch his handsome face go to town on me as his tongue licks and flicks against my sensitive lower lips.

I try to keep from squirming, but the sensation of his mouth on me in such a private place is so new and wonderful that I can’t help but move in rhythm with his tongue. Grant looks up into my eyes and thrusts even deeper inside me, sexing me with his mouth. It isn’t long before an orgasm to end all orgasms is building up in my lower body and I can’t take the pleasure anymore.

“I’m gonna come…”

“Say my name when you come,” he commands me. His deep voice vibrates against my over-sensitive flesh and sends me over the edge.

“Grant!” My juices soak his perfect face, and he drinks up every drop. His sexy moans as he enjoys my taste turn me on even more and intensify the pulsing of my muscles. My walls clench so tightly around his tongue that it almost feels like I’m really getting fucked. If his tongue fits in this tightly, I can only imagine how his cock will feel. It excites and terrifies me at the same time.
