Love in Between (17 page)

“Alright, if you say so,”
I replied.

Luke set the spaghetti on the table. “What’s wrong? You look confused.”

“I am confused. I’m confused about this whole Lucky and Giselle thing. She’s going to Seattle on a modeling job, and he’s going with her. Don’t you think that’s weird?”

“Lily, Lucky’s weird; you should know that by now.” He laughed.

I sat down at the table as Luke put some spaghetti on my plate. “Eat up.”

I took a bite as he watched me. “Luke, this is the best spaghetti I’ve ever had,” I said.

“You’re not just saying that spare my feelings, are you?”

“Of course not! The sauce is truly amazing.”

I left a long piece of spaghetti hanging from my mouth as I motioned with my finger for him to come closer. He smiled and leaned across the table, taking the other end of the spaghetti in his mouth and followed it until his lips reached mine. He licked my lips with his tongue and then inserted it in my mouth. I smiled as he kissed me. We got up from our seats as we continued to share a kiss. He slowly put his hands up my shirt, pulling the cups to my bra down and feeling my hardened nipples. I reached my hand down to his hard cock and stroked it through the fabric of his jeans. Getting lost in the hotness of the moment, our kiss became more passionate with a little bit of roughness until we were interrupted by a knock on the door.

“Uncle Luke, are you in there making your famous spaghetti?”

We both broke our kiss and looked at each other. Luke’s eyes were wide. “What the hell?” he whispered. “Um, yes, Charley, I am!” he yelled across the room.

I started laughing as Luke had to sit back in his chair to hide his erection until it had gone down; then I walked over to the door and opened it.

“Hey, sweetie!” I smiled. “Would you like to come in and have some of your Uncle Luke’s famous spaghetti?”

“I sure would!” she exclaimed.

Charley walked in and sat down next to Luke at the table. “Hi, Uncle Luke,” she said as she kissed him on the cheek.

“Hi, peanut. How did you know I was making spaghetti?”

“Mommy and I just came back from the store, and I could smell it in the hallway, but the smell was stronger coming from Lily’s door.”

Luke and I both laughed as I set a plate in front of Charley. I put some spaghetti on it with some bread, and she sat there and ate it. Luke looked at me and smirked.

“So, are you two dating or what?” Charley blurted out with a mouthful of spaghetti.

Luke and I shared a glance at each other. “Yeah, you could say that we’re dating.” He winked at me.

“I knew it!” Charley giggled. “I can’t wait to tell my friends that my teacher and my uncle are dating.”

Luke pulled his ringing phone from his pocket; it was Maddie calling to ask him to send Charley home. “Your mom wants you home as soon as you’re finished eating, peanut.”

“
Why?”
she whined.

“I think it’s because you have homework to do.” I smiled at her.

“Oh yeah, I forgot.” She giggled.

Luke looked over at her and whispered, “Your teacher is mean.”

“I am not!” I exclaimed as I pick up some plain noodles and threw them at him across the table.

“Oh, you want a food fight, do you?” He laughed as he reached in the spaghetti bowl, grabbed a handful, and threw them at me.

“Charley, get under the table!” I said.

She started laughing and ducked under the table. I reached my hand in the salad bowl and threw what I’d grabbed at Luke. He looked at me and sighed as he brushed the lettuce out of his hair. I started laughing uncontrollably until he put some butter on a knife, flung it at me, and it stuck to my forehead. He couldn’t help but laugh as he took out his phone and started taking pictures. I took my finger and wiped the butter off as I seductively brought my finger to my mouth and started sucking it. Luke put his phone down and looked at me.

“Come on, Charley, it’s time to go home and do your homework.”

“
Ok
,” she said with an exaggerated sigh.

Luke looked at me and whispered, “Stay right where you are.”

He took Charley by the hand and walked her back up to her apartment. I already knew what was going to happen the minute he returned.

Luke

I ran Charley up to her apartment so that I could get back to Lily. The way she sucked her finger made me hot for her, and there was no time to waste. We were already interrupted by Charley earlier, and I wanted to avoid any further interruptions. I walked into Lily’s apartment, but she wasn’t sitting at the table, so I followed her trail of clothes that led to the bathroom. She was lying in a bubble-filled tub, waiting for me. I leaned up against the door with my arms folded, smiling at her.

“What are you waiting for?” she asked seductively.

“I’m waiting for an invitation to join you, and I thought I told you not to move.”

“Get your hot, naked ass in this tub, right now!” she demanded.

I kicked off my shoes, took off my shirt, and removed my jeans and boxers. Lily moved forward as I stepped into the tub behind her, pulling her naked, wet body into me.

“I thought this would be better. We do need to wash off from our little food fight.”

I began kissing her neck as she tilted her head to the side. “This was a very good idea.”

Lily took the soap and started washing my arms that were holding her against me; then I took it from her hands and soaped her breast. She moved her body against mine as my erection pressed against the small of her back.

“You feel so good like this,” I whispered as the water sloshed back and forth. She let out a moan as I inserted my finger inside her. “I don’t think we’re going to last too long in this tub. I want to be inside of you, right now.”

She moved up as I climbed out of the bathtub and grabbed an extra-large towel she had sitting on the toilet. I held out my hand, helped her out from the tub, and wrapped us both in the towel, holding her closely as she buried her face into my chest. I picked her up and set her on the bathroom counter. Her smile grew as my tongue traveled down her damp body and below where she ached for me. As my mouth sucked, and my tongue licked every inch of her, Lily ran her fingers through my hair, pulling and tugging as she enjoyed my movements; then I stood up and inserted myself inside her. I reached under her and grabbed a hold of her ass as I moved in and out of her, having her legs wrapped around me. She was so warm inside, and it made me want to come fast.

“Faster, Luke, faster!” she yelled as her nails dug into my back.

“Ah, baby, you’re going to make me come already,” I said as I pushed deeper inside her.

I felt her swelling around my cock, and I was going to explode any second. Suddenly, she let out a loud moan as we both came at the same time. I held her face in my hands, kissed her softly on the lips, and stared into her eyes.

“Can we consider us a couple?”

“I don’t do boyfriends,” she said.

“I don’t do girlfriends, but I thought maybe we could make another exception.”

“I guess I can make another exception for you.” She smiled.

I picked her up from the counter and carried her to the bedroom.

I woke up as Lily got in the shower, and I made a pot of coffee. Grabbing my phone off the counter, I saw I had several missed calls from my mom. The voicemail indicator lit up, so I punched in my code and listened to her message.

“Hi, Luke, it’s mom. Your father and I are back from our cruise, and we’re having a family dinner this Friday night at six o’clock. Your sister told me that you’ve met someone very special, but she won’t tell me anything else, so bring her with you; I’m dying to meet her. I love you, Luke. Bye.”

I poured some coffee in a cup, took it in the bathroom, and handed it to Lily as she was getting ready for work.

“My mom called last night and left a message. She’s having a family dinner this Friday night, and she’s dying to meet you. Maddie told her about us.”

“That sounds great. I’d love to meet your family.” She smiled.

“Would you like to go to Bernie’s tonight?” I asked her.

“Sure, that sounds fun. We never did talk about that last night.”

I walked over to her and moved my hands under the towel she had wrapped around her and placed them on her small hips. “That’s because we were too busy making love all night,” I whispered as I nibbled on her ear.

She smiled, turning her head and meeting her lips with mine; I could kiss her all day. She put her hands on my chest and broke our kiss.

“I’m going to be late if we don’t stop.”

“I know, and I’m sorry. Finish getting dressed; you have approximately fifteen minutes before you have to leave.”

“Thanks for the warning,” she said as she began brushing her teeth.

I heard a knock on the door and wondered who would be at here so early in the morning. I opened it and saw Sam standing there, holding a brown bag in my face.

“Bagels for the two lovebirds.”

“Come on in, man. Thank you.”

Sam stepped inside the apartment as I took the bag from him. “Lily and I are going to Bernie’s tonight; do you and Gretchen want to join us?” I asked.

“That sounds good; I’ll ask her.”

“Want some coffee?” I asked Sam as I walked over and poured some in a cup for myself.

“Nah, I have to get going soon. Are you free to grab a burger at the burger bar this afternoon?”

“Sure, I’ll meet you there around 1:00 p.m.”

Lily came out of the bedroom, looking smoking hot
. We’re going to have to role play in bed.
The thought started getting me hard.

“Good morning, Lily. You’re looking as beautiful as always.” Sam smiled.

“Good morning, Sam, and thank you,” she replied as she kissed him on the cheek.

“Hot damn! I’ve been kissed by two beautiful women already this morning,” he said as he spun around and put his hand on the doorknob.

“Later, bro; I’ll see you later for that burger.”

“Later, dude. Bye, Lily,” Sam said as he waved and left the apartment.

I poured the rest of the coffee in her to-go cup and handed it to her as I walked her to her Explorer. I opened the door and wrapped my arms around her.

“Have a good day, babe,” I said as I kissed her lips.

“You too.” She smiled.

“Two burgers, medium, with everything and a side of fries,” the waitress said as she set our food in front of us.

“I’m taking Lily to family dinner Friday night,” I said as I picked up a fry.

“Wow! That’s a big step taking a girl home to meet the family. I haven’t done that with Gretchen yet. I love how I was right that you and Lily would make a great couple. You are a couple, right?”

I nodded my head as I took a bite of my burger. “Yep, we made it official last night.”

“Dude, that’s awesome.” Sam smiled as he fist-bumped me.

When we finished our lunch, Sam went back to work, and I headed to Bernie’s to talk to Maddie. I walked in the bar and took my usual seat.

“Hey, Luke. What brings you in here today?” Maddie asked.

“I know you talked to Mom last night. I listened to her message this morning, and she knew about Lily.”

“I may have mentioned that you’ve met someone and that she’s really special. I hope you’re not mad.”

“No, I’m not mad at all. It actually bought me some time before the million questions Mom’s going to be asking me about her.”

Maddie set a beer down in front on me. “Luke, my boy, tell me you’re here to give me your decision?” Bernie said as he came from the storage room with a box in his hands.

“Not yet, Bernie, but I promise you’ll have my answer by the end of the week,” I replied.

“You’re actually thinking about buying the bar again?” Maddie leaned over the bar and asked.

“Yeah, I’m thinking about it, but I want to talk to Lily about it first. We were supposed to talk about it last night, but we kind of got distracted by a bathtub, a countertop, and a bed.”

“Whoa, stop right there!” Maddie said as she put her hand up.

I finished my beer and got up from the stool. “Later, Bernie; Lily and I will be in tonight. See ya, sis,” I said as I kissed her on the cheek.

Lily

I grabbed my bags and headed to the Explorer. Once I got inside, I inserted the key—nothing. The fucking thing wouldn’t start. I took in a deep breath and calmly turned the key—nothing. “Damn—damn—damn it!” I yelled as I slammed my hands against the steering wheel. I pulled out my phone and dialed Luke.
Please answer, please answer,
I thought to myself.

“Hey, babe, are you on your way home?” he answered.

“I never made it out of the parking lot; my truck won’t start!”

“Sit tight, I’ll be there shortly.”

“Thank you, I—I’ll be here!”

I couldn’t believe what almost came out of my mouth. Just then, a text message came through from Gretchen.

“Sam and I will be joining you at Bernie’s tonight. Make sure you have your dancing shoes on, because we’re going to get down and dirty!”

I laughed as I replied,
“Alright, but we have to get the guys to dance with us. If Luke dances, then he’s perfect. I love a man who can dance!”

I looked up and saw Luke pulling into the parking lot. I let out a sigh of relief when he was in his Jeep and not on his bike. Pulling up next to me, he smiled, and I gave him a small wave and a smile in return. I was so happy to see him. I got out of the Explorer as he got out of his Jeep, and I hugged him tight.
