I giggled as I replied.
Me: You’re lucky it’s a non-stop flight. See you in a few hours.
I turned off my phone and slipped it into my purse. Placing my fingers on my lips, I imagined Walker kissing them. I couldn’t wait to be in his arms again. I would help him through whatever he needed. I would never run from him—or anything—ever again.
I MADE MY way down to the baggage claim. Glancing at the arrivals board, I saw that Liza’s flight was coming in. I’d had to call her parents to find out what flight she was on, since neither of us had thought about it when we were texting. I lifted my baseball cap and ran my hand through my hair. I watched the escalator, waiting for her to come down.
I felt a hand on my shoulder and I turned to see Jessica. Before I even had a chance to react, she threw herself into me, wrapping her arms around my neck.
“I’ve missed you so much, Walker,” she said.
I was stunned for a moment before I pulled her arms from around my neck.
“Hey, Jessica.” I nudged her back and away from me.
She looked me all over and bit her lip. “I’ve missed your touch, Walker.”
I dropped my hands from her arms and took a step back.
She cocked her head to one side, giggling. “Did I spook you, maybe? Old feelings coming back to the surface again, baby?”
My lips parted slightly and I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. Did she really think I missed her? As if I could want her after walking in on her fucking another guy?
I tried to talk, but she came closer. “You look like shit, baby. What you need is a good blow—”
I held up my hands. “Stop. Honestly. First off, I’m completely and utterly in love with Liza. Second, you cheated on me for months. You really think you can just show up and offer sex? That everything will fall back into place? You have problems, Jessica.”
Her eyes widened in surprise. She wasn’t used to being told “no.”
“You’re a dick. I knew you loved her as soon as I saw the two of you together last summer. The way you looked at her turned my stomach.”
“Your point is?”
“I’m saying that you’re walking away from the best thing that ever happened to you.”
I shook my head. “No, Jessica. I’m not. I’m walking away from the biggest mistake of my life. The best thing that has ever happened to me will be coming down that escalator at any moment and I can’t wait to hold her in my arms.”
Jessica gasped and then squared her shoulders at me. She smiled, giving me the finger. “Fuck off, Moore,” she said before turning on her heels, grabbing her suitcase, and walking away.
Ugh. What did I ever see in her?
I felt Liza before I saw her. The hairs on my body came to attention and her perfume invaded my senses. I turned around and Liza was standing there. The smile plastered on her face told me she’d probably heard all of that. Her eyes looked me over from head to toe, licking her lips. My dick instantly jumped. Finally, our eyes locked.
“Walker,” she whispered as tears formed in her eyes.
I walked over to her, took her face in my hands, and slammed my lips to hers. We both moaned as she dropped everything she was carrying and brought her hands to my chest. Our kiss was probably more passionate then it should have been for the Austin airport baggage claim. Someone walked by and whistled. That’s when I pulled away and rested my forehead against hers as she moved her hands to my arms and held on. Her breaths were just short of panting. I knew she wanted me as much as I wanted her.
I finally found the words to speak. “I can’t wait…we’re booking a hotel in Austin.”
Liza laughed. She closed her eyes and said, “I’m so sorry.”
I shook my head and closed my eyes. We stood with our foreheads pressed against each other. “No, baby. I’m the one who should be sorry. I was a fool for pushing you away. I swear to God I’ll never do it again.”
“Promise me, Walker. I don’t want any more broken promises.”
I looked into her eyes. “No more broken promises, baby. No more.” I picked up her carry-on suitcase and handed her purse to her. “Let’s go. I want to bury myself inside of you and stay there forever.”
Her eyes lit up with desire. It was everything I could do to not take her right there in front of everyone. I took her hand and practically dragged her out the door and to the parking garage.
WE BARELY MADE it to the Omni and into the room before Liza and I started pulling each other’s clothes off. Our kisses were hungry. I ran my hands all over her body. I couldn’t get enough of her. I couldn’t wait to taste her.
I unclasped her bra and let it fall to the floor. My mouth took her nipple and I sucked on it as she tipped her head back. I moved my hand into her panties and slipped two fingers inside her, quickly finding evidence of how much she wanted me. I pushed my thumb against her clit and Liza hissed out, “Finally,” as I worked my fingers in and out.
I moaned as I moved my lips up along her chest, making my way to her neck. She pushed off my hat and grabbed my hair with both hands, tugging hard.
“Liza, I want to be a gentleman. But, honestly, I just want to be inside of you.”
Her eyes filled with lust as she bit her lip. “Now…do it now, Walker. I need to feel you before I explode.”
That was all I needed to hear. I lifted her and slowly pushed my dick inside her as she whispered, “Oh God, yes.” I slammed her against the wall and she gasped. I didn’t care if there were people in the next room. I needed her so much that I couldn’t think straight.
I pulled out and pushed back in as she cried out in pleasure.
“Harder, Walker. I’ve missed you so much!”
I moved in and out of her as fast and hard as I could.
“Walker!” She screamed out as I pumped into her, pushing in further each time, making her cry out again. “Yes, Walker! Yes!”
I felt my buildup and I couldn’t wait to pour myself into her. Then it hit me. I stopped.
“Fuck, Liza. I don’t have a condom on.”
Her eyes widened, dazed, as she kept moving her body to get the friction I knew she needed. “W—what?” She panted.
I blinked slowly. “We almost forgot again, baby. We get too wrapped up in each other. I need to put a condom on. I’m so sorry, sweetheart I know you were coming, but I was about to explode when I remembered.”
She shook her head. “Do you have one? Please tell me you have one!”
