of the day.
“You matter, Land. You matter a lot. I’m going to
miss you so much when you head back to school.” I pressed against
him, feeling his arousal. I wanted to say more… it was hard to hold
back. But I didn’t want to ruin what we had this summer.
Landon looked hesitant, like he wanted to say
something too. I pushed him back and unbuttoned his jeans. Tonight,
I was taking control.
“What are you doing, Em?” His husky drawl, the feel
of him in my hands—so hard and warm, made me shudder. I wanted more
tonight. I had never taken him in my mouth, and now I wanted to
taste him. I wasn’t ready to have sex, but I needed to show him how
my feelings were growing. It was time for the next step.
Slowly and tentatively, I licked him, gathering my
nerve and finding my rhythm, before taking him all the way into my
mouth. I didn’t have much experience at this, but whatever I was
doing was working. His body trembled beneath me. It was powerful,
knowing I was bringing this kind of satisfaction to a guy like
Landon. Night after night he made sure I reached depths of pleasure
I had never known existed. Bringing him to that point was
thrilling.
“Sonofabitch. Shit. Holy. Mother Fuuu…..Oh Emm…..”
Landon, all six foot plus, big time football player, crumbled
beneath me. He watched me suck him and I watched him call my name.
I wasn’t sure how either of us would ever recover from the
sight.
Landon caught his breath and then lightly kissed me
on the lips before he crawled in front of me, lifted my dress, and
removed my panties. He brought his lips down to me and fluttered
his tongue on my most sensitive spot. I grabbed his head and my
world spun around me. “God, yes! Don’t stop, Land. Don’t stop.
Don’t stop.” I chanted to him, my voice low and full of need. I
held his head to me unabashedly. This felt way too good to be
embarrassed. I couldn’t stop, couldn’t control myself. At that
moment, he was all I ever needed and all I ever wanted.
“Oooohhhhh Landon! Please, please… Yes!” I grabbed
his head and wrapped my legs around his neck and his shoulders so
hard I thought I might have hurt him in my vice grip. But I
couldn’t help it—it felt too amazing. I just prayed that I hadn’t
gone and killed him in my lust. Instead, I heard his chuckle as he
kissed his way back up my body.
“Dammit, Emma Harris. You are the best fuckin’ thing
that has ever happened to me. I had no idea it could be like this.”
Landon wrapped me in his arms and I closed my eyes.
Summer was winding down, but maybe summer love could
be the real thing? Real love. What did I know about the subject?
Maybe there was a chance for us. Under what circumstances was I
entitled to happiness? To hope for more? I was afraid to think it,
let alone say the words to him. My lot in life was to plow through,
caring for those that needed me. It wasn’t to find happiness and
run off with the cute pool boy. I would just have to wait and see
what the next few weeks brought to us. Only time would tell what
that would ultimately be.
Too bad for me that I was about as good at patience
as I was at optimism and fun.

“YOU KNOW, SHORT stuff, that I won’t see you for
a while after today.” Landon kissed me gently and then pulled me
against him in a tight hug.
“Tell me again, the purpose of this football camp
thing?” I ran my hands up and down his back, feeling his muscles
tighten at my touch. We each had a thin layer of sweat covering us.
The only possible place we could find a minute’s privacy during
work was in the pump room and it was hotter than hell. But,
sometimes I needed to steal a kiss. Especially when I wouldn’t be
seeing my guy for more than a week.
“The whole football team heads to this remote
mountain camp in West Virginia. One of the assistant coaches owns
it. We hunker down in bunks, eat shitty food, workout for over
eight hours a day and bond as a team. It’s like preparing for war
