30. Chapter 29
J ulia grabbed the ice cream bowls filled with bananas and strawberry goodness, heading back to where Jinx waited for her on the couch. “You and Dad were talking for quite a while today.”
Jinx smiled at her, holding his hands up for the bowl. “Yeah, he—”
Unable to resist, she kissed him, her lips lingering. She put the bowl in his now limp hands, making sure they were able to support it before sitting beside him.
“He what?”
Jinx swallowed. There was a part of her that loved when he crawled his way back up from heat. He cleared his throat. “He was showing me the next cruise he’s surprising your mom with.” His eyes widened. “Oh, shoot, it’s supposed to be a secret.”
Julia laughed. “Don’t worry, my mom will pretend it is. Just like she did with the last one.” She rolled her eyes, scooping up the perfect ratio of strawberry ice cream to banana and humming around that first spoonful.
The pupils of Jinx’s gorgeous eyes widened even further. She was already craving something other than ice cream.
“I love that they’re enjoying retirement together, but it sounds like they won’t be around for next month’s family lunch.” Jinx loved those Sundays, not getting tired of them no matter how many he attended. It was just another thing that made him perfect for her.
Julia had never thought she’d be content in a more traditional relationship.
Every day proved the old her more and more wrong.
Except for the not wanting kids part. She was very thankful that every time she checked in with Jinx about that, he was as certain as she was.
“Oh, Phoebe called. She’s hit the tired of being pregnant stage again, with a side of nesting fever.
I offered to help her repaint the nursery. ”
“Just you two, or can I help?” Jinx asked, pausing with his spoon in the air.
Julia leaned forward, taking it from him and using her tongue to lick the spoon more than was strictly necessary.
She teased a drop from her lip, turning them both on.
“Mmmm,” she hummed, watching the pulse in his throat flutter.
“Just the two of us. She wants to complain about things I’d rather save you from. ”
Jinx leaned forward, abandoning his bowl on the coffee table. “You’re always saving me.”
Hers snapped down beside his before she turned, climbing onto his lap and gripping the back of the couch, trapping him just where she wanted him.
“And I always will,” she murmured before capturing his lips.
Both of their mouths were cold from the ice cream, but that made the heat curling inside of her even hotter.
She sucked on his bottom lip before biting it, loving the way he shuddered.
“You okay if I have my way with you right here?” she asked, nuzzling her way into his neck so she could suck on the skin over his pulse.
His head fell back. “God, Julia,” he gasped as she sucked even harder, wanting to mark him.
“More. I need more.” She kissed her way up his jaw and back to his mouth, stroking her tongue inside as she began to grind on his lap.
She never got sick of kissing him. Long drugging kisses, small loving brushes, brief absent-minded pecks, they all added up over the last year they’d been together, but there could never be enough.
Right now, she needed to devour him. The strawberry flavor was already gone, and it was all Jinx in every taste.
Her favorite. Everything about him was her favorite.
She captured his erection between her legs, rocking in the way that made him make the sweetest whimpers.
Her lips gave him one more drugging kiss before parting from his. “We need less clothes.” It was difficult to accomplish since neither of them wanted to separate. They lost their shirts first, his fingers finding her nipples to pinch.
“I like your hands there,” she told him, her chest arching into his touch as she lifted, trying to shove her loose black pants and underwear to her knees.
She had to fall back to the couch to kick them off, and Jinx followed her, one of his hands slipping between her legs while the other continued to keep the nerve endings in her nipple alive.
He let out a small moan at how wet she already was, dipping into her slit before tracing his damp finger around her clit.
“Fuck, yes,” she said, letting her legs fall wider to give him more room. She fumbled with the button on his jeans. “Don’t stop. See how quickly you can make me come.”
She managed to get his jeans unfastened, pushing them down his hips until she could grip his ass.
He liked his ass touched, his body shuddering again before she pushed them down more.
Her hand slipped around to encircle his erection, and she gave it a pump from base to tip, twisting her hand at the end to make him cry out in need.
“Look at this gorgeous dick,” she murmured as his strokes on her clit changed, becoming faster and a little rougher, just like she liked.
She focused on the aching pressure that was building.
“That’s it,” she gasped, her legs shaking.
“You’re doing so good.” Her hand tightened around his dick as the pulsing started inside her.
Her other hand found the back of his head, dragging his mouth to her neglected nipple.
He sucked it while he rubbed more pulses out of her clit, his needy sounds muffled by her breast.
Her body felt fantastic after, lingering throbs keeping her on the edge of need. She reached under the couch cushion to grab one of the condoms they kept there, opening it and putting it on for him.
“Sit back again,” she urged, following him as he obeyed. Her leg swung over him, her hands finding the back of the couch for leverage as she took his dick deep inside of her.
He moaned when she flexed her muscles, squeezing around him.
“I’m going to fuck you so good now.” She began to move, lifting and then taking him deep again, setting a fast pace because of how wet she was. “Wrap your arms around me and open your eyes.”
His arms gripped her tight as his blown eyes latched on hers.
“That’s it,” she hummed, staring into him, never wanting to look away. Her hands curled around his neck. “It feels so good to be this close to you.” She sank down on him harder each time, making him gasp and shudder. “You made me so fucking wet for you. How does it feel to be inside my pussy?”
She captured his lips before he could answer, swallowing his groan as his body trembled.
Her breasts slid against his chest each time she moved, keeping them stimulated, but she didn’t care if she came again.
Her tongue thrust into his mouth on beat with her movements.
Her hands found his hair, pulling a little the way he liked, and he broke the kiss, gasping for air.
“Oh God. Julia!” he cried out, his eyes falling shut. She wanted to make him fall apart. Her pussy squeezed around him as she took him, again and again, making his whole body shudder and tighten.
“I love you,” she whispered in his ear before her mouth closed on his neck, sucking hard. He moaned, filling the condom with his cum. She licked the hickey she’d given him as she slowed. Feeling him shuddering against her was one of her favorite things.
His body melted into the couch. She lifted her head, tracing every relaxed inch of his face. She’d done that. She’d taken every thought out of his head.
Her hips shifted in need, but she forced them still.
One of Jinx’s hands slipped between them. He stared into her eyes as he circled her clit. “You come, too. I want to watch your face while you come.”
Each stroke made her shudder on top of him, then he pressed, stroked, pressed, and pinched. She locked her eyes on him as the pulsing inside tightened her muscles around his dick. They panted against each other’s mouths through her last pulse.
She became boneless after, trapping his hand as her head found its place on his shoulder. “Give me a minute,” she mumbled.
He made a humming noise as his other hand traced along her back.
Her strength slowly returned, and she lifted her head, finding his eyes again. “I can never get enough of making you come.”
His lips tilted up as his hand held the condom in place. “Me too.”
She bit her lip, separating her body from his. “Let’s clean up, and we’ll get some more ice cream.”
Soon the bowls were empty again, and their heads rested together while they watched TV.
Her hand found his, linking their fingers together in the way that felt like home.
They often ended the day like this, and she realized she always wanted that.
There was something so soothing about knowing she could be with him, over and over again, and never get enough.
