Chapter 68

When we pulled up to valet parking at the hotel,I grinned.“Fancy.”

Jeff reached behind his seat,pulling out his blue duffel bag.

“What’s that for?”

He waggled his eyebrows,grinning.“Come with me and find out.”

I slid out of the truck and waited for him to hand over his keys and get a ticket.Jeff grabbed my hand as we headed inside.

A large sign on an easel announced the Stone Gate High School Prom in the Chariot Ballroom,with an arrow pointing to our left.But Jeff headed right.

“The prom’s the other direction,”I told him.

He pointed to another sign on the wall—Check-in.

We were spending the night?In a hotel room?I joined him at the counter.

A young woman with long bleach-blonde hair and way too much blue eyeshadow greeted us.“Checking in?”

“Under the name Jeff Leaton.”

I blushed as she glanced at the two of us.

“Just one night?”

“Yes.”He pulled out his driver’s license when she asked for identification,and gave her his debit card as well.

Once everything was verified,she handed him a key card marked 916.

I felt out of my element as we walked hand-in-hand through the posh lobby before riding the elevator to the ninth floor,saying nothing the entire time.

When we reached the room,he looked at me.“Is something wrong?I thought you’d like this,but we don’t have to stay here.We can just…Christ.I should have asked you.I was trying to be romantic.”

I covered his mouth with my hand.“It’s perfect.I wasn’t expecting it,and sometimes it’s hard reconciling the guy I crush with my superior video game skills with the guy being romantic like this.”I smiled.“But it’s an amazing surprise.”I stepped back to let him open the door.“Is that why you didn’t want to go to Russell’s party?”

“Yeah,”he said.He gestured for me to go inside and I found the switch.

“Let there be light,”I quipped,making him groan.

A large king-size bed sat center stage in the main room.A small brown leather loveseat and chair stood beside a rectangular glass coffee table,all directly in front of the drape-covered window.I opened the drapes and viewed the city,marveling at all the glittering lights.It looked so busy.But we were alone in the stillness of the room.

He tossed the bag on the bed.I wrapped my arms around Jeff,wondering if I’d ever get used to being held by him.I hoped not,because I never wanted to take him for granted.

“This is perfect,”I whispered.

Jeff kissed the top of my head,then stared at me,his eyes dark,letting me know he wanted me.Wanted to go further tonight.Wanted to be inside me.My face heated.

“We better get to the prom before I end up taking you right here and now.”

And I became rock-hard again.“Do we really have to leave here?”

He pressed his hips against me so I could feel his arousal,and I groaned.

“Don’t do that,”he said.“When I hear you moan,or make any of those sexy noises,I lose my mind.”

Fuck,that did it.I yearned to get on my knees and suck his cock that instant.I needed to taste him.I started to kneel,but he grabbed my wrists.

“If you do that,we’ll never make it downstairs.”

“So?”I grabbed his ass with both hands.“Let’s have our own party.”

“I want you so fucking bad.”

I grinned and tried to kneel again,but like before,he stopped me.

Irritation shot through me and I yanked my arm out of his grip.“What?”

“I want to dance with you,Aaron.I don’t want us looking back and wishing we hadn’t missed the prom.”He lifted my chin with his finger.“We have all night,baby.”

I knew he was right,but still fought the urge to get on my knees.I loved the taste of him in my mouth.His scent acted as an aphrodisiac,and at times all I could think about was sucking him.It was all so overwhelming,but he pulled me close,his hands rubbing circles on my back.

“Aaron,I love you.”

Tears welled up in my eyes.Jeff loved me.My Jeff.I wiped at my eyes and found him staring at me,his lashes wet,too.I laughed nervously.He smiled as I wiped away his tears.

“I love you,too,”I told him,with no doubt in my mind.“You’re…my Jeff.You always will be.”

He leaned down,but instead of kissing me,he licked my bottom lip before taking it in his teeth and playfully pulling.“I want to make you mine.I need you.”

My body trembled.I put my hands on his hips and ground against him.“You want me?You want to slide deep inside me?”

“God,yes!”

I pulled away.“Then let’s get downstairs,do the dance thing,and get the hell back up here so you can fuck me.”I momentarily gripped my hard dick.“Because I’m about to lose it,Jeff.If I don’t feel you inside me soon,I’m going to scream.”

I watched his Adam’s apple bob up and down and wanted to lick it.Shit,I wanted to lick all of him,to bury my face between his thighs and taste every inch of him.

I dragged him to the door.“You have the key card?”

“Yes.”

“Great.Let’s go dance.”
