Chapter 14

Haley

The other night was like nothing I’ve ever experienced in my life, and I can no longer get enough of Coop. I want him every second of every day, and I’m starting to think that his dick is enchanted or something, because it sure as hell has me under some sort of spell. Or maybe I’m the enchantress, because he can’t keep his hands to himself, either.

He’s on shift today, and I made a huge batch of cheesecake brownies to bring down on my lunch break. I get an hour, and since the station is only a few blocks over, I have plenty of time. But my morning goes by quickly, and I’m hopping in my car to drive the few blocks, the containers of treats too much for me to carry. Luckily, there’s a couple free spots right in front of the station and I pull into one before shooting Cooper a text.

Haley: Special delivery, handsome. Come outside.

Shutting off the engine, I grab the containers from my back seat and begin carrying them into the station, but I’ve barely hit the apparatus floor when the double doors burst open and he comes jogging out, a huge smile on his face. Damn, even his station tee and pants get me going.

What the hell has this man done to my hormones?

“What are you doing here?” he breathes out, grabbing me for a hard kiss.

“I have treats for you guys,” I announce, holding out the boxes. “Plus, it gave me an excuse to come visit you for a few minutes.”

“Oh yeah?” he husks out, and I nod, cheeks heating at the tone of his words.

“I missed you, Coop.”

“I always miss my girl when we’re apart,” he says, kissing my forehead before hugging me tightly. He helps me carry the treat containers to the long table just off to the side of the engines, and then he looks down at me with a smirk. “Come with me for a second?”

Nodding, I allow him to pull me through a doorway and into what looks to be the coat room. We’re barely inside and he’s lifting me into his arms and wrapping my legs around his waist before turning to press me against the wall.

“Hi,” he whispers, and then he devours my mouth. Tightening my legs, he rocks his hips against mine and I whimper against him. “Shh, you got to be quiet, baby. Can you do that for me?”

Nodding, I frantically rock my hips and he gives me a wicked grin, before using one hand to get his pants open and his cock out and in his hand. Grateful I wore a sundress to work today, he balances me with his hips, and yanks the bottom of my dress up my hips, before he pulls my underwear to the side, running his thumb through my wetness with a soft groan.

“Still okay?” he asks, and I lick my bottom lip as I slide my hand down to rub alongside his thumb. He bites out a curse and then notches the head of his erection between my legs. With his eyes locked on mine, and one arm holding me to him, he slides me down his cock, and I instantly kiss him to muffle my cry of pleasure. “Thatta girl,” he whispers into my mouth.

Knowing we don’t have a lot of time, he doesn’t waste a second, and begins fucking me against the wall in slow, deep strokes, and every thrust has him rubbing against that spot inside, and when he rubs his thumb in circles over my clit, I lock up tight, knowing that I’m already dangling on the edge.

“Fuck, how can you always feel so damn good,” he moans against my neck, and his hot breath puffs against my heated skin, causing me to shiver.

“Coop.”

“You like how my cock feels? Tell me, sweetness.”

Biting my lip, I lean my head against the wall, and he slides his hand up to cradle my head, keeping me from hitting it. “It feels like heaven, so hard and big. You get so deep in me, honey, and you make me so wet. I can’t get enough of you,” I confess in a hushed whisper, and despite the pull in my stomach from my own filthy words, it’s his face that does me in.

He confessed after our first night how much he loved hearing how I liked what he did to me, and despite my lack of experience, I’m not na?ve enough to not know how to please my man. And we’ve since discovered we both have a pretty strong praise kink, so we’re often trying to out dirty each other.

“Fuck, baby.”

“I’m close,” I whimper, and he speeds up the motion of his thumb.

“I know, you’re so damn tight and you just got so wet.”

We both only last another handful of thrusts, and we’re both shaking as we try and catch our breaths. Once my legs stop shaking, Cooper sets me down and reaches for a towel off the shelf next to us to get me cleaned up. We can’t stop kissing and laughing as we get ourselves righted, and when we step out of the coat room a minute or so later, I come face to face with my biggest fear.

Rhett, Grayson, Asher and Myles are all standing a few feet away from the doorway, digging into the containers of brownies. My cheeks burn as they all just take us both in, a shit eating grin coming over Rhett’s face.

“Oh Cooper, yes Cooper!” Rhett moans loudly, thrusting his hips and pretending to slap in front of him before he stuffs his face with a brownie, and my jaw drops. But it’s Grayson who reacts first.

“Dude, if my fucking coat has a goddamned cum stain on it, I’m kicking your ass!”

“You fucking wish,” Cooper jokes, reaching down for my hand, and I just do my best to hide behind his back.

“How dare you defile a sacred room in this place,” he gripes, and I just bury my face in Cooper’s back.

“Knock it off, Hawk. You don’t get to embarrass my girl.”

He reaches behind him to grip my hip, and I peer around him to see Grayson’s face soften. “Sorry, Haley.”

Trying to fight a giggle, I loop my arms around Cooper’s waist and move around him so that I’m next to him. “It’s okay. I guess we deserve that.”

“It’s just second nature for us to rib on Marchy. But you shouldn’t be collateral,” Rhett says, and I laugh.

“The brownies are delicious,” Asher says, grabbing for a second one. “But I think Coop prefers whatever else you just gave him in there,” he teases, and with a wink he grabs a container and heads inside, Myles following along as he laughs.

“Okay, I’m going back to work,” I chuckle, and Cooper grabs me by the hand to stop me.

“The hell you are, I barely got to spend any time with you,” he pouts, and Rhett rolls his eyes.

“Then maybe you shouldn’t be a two-pump chump, my man,” he says, making a jerking off motion with his hand, and Grayson just bends over laughing at him.

“The fuck you call me? And to think, I was going to let you be my best man when I finally get married,” he huffs, before stepping forward to grab him in a headlock, rubbing his fist over the top of Rhett’s head.

“Watch the hair!” he shouts, getting out of Cooper’s hold, and Grayson comes over to me as they horse around.

“Are they always like this?” I laugh, and he just shakes his head.

“Always. Hey, for real though, I didn’t mean to make you feel bad just now.”

“Seriously, it’s okay. Just don’t do it again, or I’ll text my new bestie, Skye.”

“Fuck, please don’t do that,” he groans, and I smile.

“Don’t worry, you’re safe for now.”

I’m just coming out of the bathroom into Cooper’s bedroom from taking a long relaxing bath, when he comes into the bedroom, pulling the door shut behind him. We’re been living in a bubble of happiness for two weeks, and I’ve barely set foot in what was my own bedroom unless it’s to get clothes. All my shower stuff is in his bathroom, and I sleep in his bed every night.

“Okay, so I have a surprise for you, Hales.”

He leans back against the bedroom door, and I drop the towel I’m holding around my body. I quickly get dressed in a bra and underwear before I rifle through the basket of clean clothes I left in here.

“Do I need to wear anything special for this surprise?” I ask, and he shakes his head.

“Nope. But you do need more than those sexy fucking things,” he teases me, motioning to the bra and underwear I have on. Giving him a pointed glare, I pull on a pair of loose cotton shorts and one of his station tees.

Moving into the bathroom, I quickly run a brush through my wet hair and braid it into a long plait before tying off the end. I come back in the bedroom to see him still waiting for me, and I hold my hands out. “Am I decent?”

“You’re perfect, sweetheart. Now close your eyes, and prepare to be amazed.”

Shrugging, I walk over to where he’s waiting and he moves behind me, placing his hands over my eyes. As careful as he can he maneuvers us, and I won’t lie, I have no idea where he’s going with this, but he seems so excited I can’t find it in me to care. We finally come to a stop and I reach up to place my hands over his.

“Can I look yet?” I ask, and his warm lips come down on the side of my head.

“I don’t know. Rome, what do you think?” he asks, and then I laugh when I hear Rome yell out, “Mama!”

“Rome agrees. What do you think, Jensen?”

Cooper whisks his hands away at the same moment my heart stops beating, and it only starts up again when I find my brother standing in front of me, looking completely exhausted, but smiling so big tears begins pouring down my cheeks. Covering my mouth to hold in a sob, he rushes forward to bury me in his massive arms, and I begin crying against his chest.

“Hey sis,” he greets, and I move around so I can hug his waist, unable to stop crying. Jensen rocks us back and forth, and I take in a deep breath. It’s been six months since I’ve seen him, and I didn’t realize until just now how badly I missed him. This was his worst deployment for me, since I moved right after he left, and his contact with me was spotty at best the whole time. I know it’s hard for him too, but I do my best to always put on a brave face for him.

Jensen pulls me back from his chest, and bends down to kiss my forehead, swiping at my cheeks with his thumbs. “You’re so beautiful. Happiness looks really good on you, Hale.”

“What are you doing here?” I ask, wiping my face with both hands before I smooth my hands over his shoulders.

“Well, we got back from deployment like ten days early, so I called Cooper earlier this week and asked him to help plan this surprise.”

Turning to look over my shoulder, I see Cooper leaning against the wall with his hands in his pockets, a huge and genuine smile on his face. It’s on the tip of my tongue to tell him how much I love him, but those words aren’t for him to share with my brother. They’re for just us.

He simply blows me a kiss, and then moves around us to sweep Roman into his arms. “What do you say we go get lunch started while you two catch up?”

In seconds, Jensen and I are alone in the living room, and I gesture to the couch, where we go and sit down. It brings tears to my eyes again to see him next to me, and I lean my head against his shoulder.

“I can’t believe you’re here,” I say, and he rests his head on top of mine. “How long can you stay?”

“I’ve got four days, and then I need to be back in New York. I called Beth while I was at the airport, and she’s got you covered until then, so you can spend all your time with me.”

Laughing, I look up at him and make a face of mock horror. “Who says I even want to spend all that time with you?”

“Fuckin’ punk,” he mumbles, and I just slug him in the stomach before we both start laughing. “Cooper is gonna bring me by the station tomorrow and show me around. Then I thought we could go get lunch and take Roman to the playground?”

“I’d really like that,” I whisper, and I hate so much the tears that prick my eyes.

“No more tears, Hale. Please, they gut me every time.”

“It’s just been a long six months. And then the fire, it’s just all been so much. It’s been harder this time around.”

“But you have Cooper now,” he reasons, reaching out to flick the end of my nose.

“I know, but it’s not the same thing.”

“Of course not. But you can’t tell me that spending the last couple moths falling in love with him haven’t helped keep you occupied while you waited for me to return to home soil.”

Biting my lip, I can’t really find a rebuttal for that, and he just gives me a knowing smile.

“Like I said, happiness looks really good on you, sis. Now, what’s a guy gotta do for his favorite sister to make him her famous pancakes for breakfast.”

God, have I missed this goofball.

Thank you for bringing him home safely.
