Once we’re in my SUV, with the heat blasting, he unzips his coat, and turns toward me. “All night, I’ve thought about kissing you.”
I lick my lips and lay my hand over his on the center console. His thumb strokes my palm as we watch each other. The touch sizzles my nerve endings. Heartbeat pounding, I lean in and close the distance.
Jalen’s lips are soft and warm, and he tastes like chocolate and cinnamon. He curls his hand into my shirt and tugs me closer. The side of the console presses into my hip as I angle my head for a deeper taste. His tongue teases the tip of my own and the sensation goes straight to my cock.
I slip my one hand under his coat collar and seek the warm soft skin of his neck. Pushing the coat aside, I roam the length of his torso. Chiseled muscles tighten under my touch. The sound of his sigh fills the car as my exploration grows bolder. His hand flexes on my chest, then spreads wide.
Our tongues tangle together. Kissing him is everything I thought it would be, and more.
Jalen traces a path from my chest to my stomach. I tilt my hips, hoping for his touch to roam lower.
“I got you,” he whispers against my lips. His hand palms the bulge in my jeans. We both groan. The strokes and squeezes are driving me higher and higher. Then he drags my zipper down. I’m not prepared for the feel of his hand on my bare cock. Pure heaven.
The pleasure he’s giving me needs to be reciprocated. I know he’s in agreement when he moves my hand to the tent in his jeans. I tug the denim free of the top button. “I need to touch you.”
“Yes, please.” He adjusts his hips to give me better access.
The slow slide of the zipper teases us both. My fingers itch to touch him. His cock pokes out of the top of his pinstriped boxers. I graze my thumb over the wet tip, eliciting a deep groan from Jalen.
Wrapping my hand around his thickness, I’m grateful that I didn’t park under a streetlight. The darkened car is private, but there’s not enough room for me to maneuver or for us to stretch out and be comfortable.
“We could go back to my place. Or your place.” Schedule be damned, I need time with him. Time to explore. Time to play. Time to unwrap every layer of the amazing man beside me.
