I do what he
says and feel his tip meeting my wetness. His moans make my breathing turn into
pants as I dig my nails into his back. He finally slips in me and I hear him
grunt. He is deep inside and he begins a slow and steady motion. I lift my hips
up a little and feel him go deeper in me. I moan loudly and want more. “Faster
babe, oh my God,” I scream.

 

He goes in fast
and hard. I wrap my legs around him and pull him deeper in me. I close my eyes,
trying not to be so loud but it is impossible. I love how he feels inside of
me.

 

“You’re so wet
baby. I love how tight you are.” He slowly pulls out of me and flips me on my
stomach. His hands are on my hips and I feel his hands cupping my ass. “Your
ass is so sexy.” My breathing gets faster and the anticipation of him is too
much. He brings my hips down a little more and holds on tightly to me. I feel
him entering in me again. I cannot move. Everything is perfect. When he is
inside, I meet each thrust. I groan loudly and feel him going deeper. He
circles his hips while slowly pulling back and easing his way back in.

 


Ahh
… Adam, keep going. It feels so good.” My breath is
throaty and I hear a guttural sound coming from him. He is driving me crazy and
I know he can tell how I feel. I push back on him letting him know I want more.
I want him to go deeper.

 

His face is near
mine. “Tell me what you want.” The sheer desire in his voice makes me quiver.

 

“I want
you…always you.”

 

“How bad do you
want me?” He stops moving but I feel his hands rubbing my back and my ass. “I
want you to tell me how bad you want me.”

 

I let out a
delicious moan. “So bad, I just want you.” Everything starts to quicken and
Adam picks up the pace again. He is going in faster and harder. I feel my body
ready to explode. “Babe,” my body jerks and I let go. With one final thrust,
Adam lets out a final moan and releases himself into me. I turn over onto my
side and look at the love of my life. “I love you.”
He nuzzles my neck and brings me closer to him. I feel so relaxed in his arms.
I stare into those blue eyes and see my future. This is how life should be.
This is how our life will be. He kisses my nose. “I love you too, pretty girl.”

 

I snuggle close
to him again and once my head hits his chest I fall asleep and dream of our
life together.

Chapter 23
 

Winter is
finally over and the warm weather presents itself. Everything has been going
well with Adam. No Kyle, no drama, nothing. He still hasn’t let me come into
the office, but I’ve been video conferencing him and the rest of the team while
coming up with strategic ways to advertise our products. The emergency
wristband has hit the roof with sales. We’ve sold over three million dollars
worth and have heard so many positive testimonies from our users and family
members. Adam and Connor were in and out of area schools talking to students about
staying focused and succeeding. The schools have been buying the web cams and
they’ve donated many cameras to many schools. Right now,
Optimax
is in the process of building a high school internship program to help students
get into business and marketing. Adam and Connor have been busier than ever. I
don’t get to see Adam too much since he is always in the office and on the
road.

 

I’ve met Olivia
a few times and can’t find anything to like about her. She has been messing up
my appointments and each time I missed a meeting, I could see Adam’s
frustration. I explained to him that Olivia was trying to ruin me, ruin us. He
didn’t listen and called me crazy. I was so mad that I told him to sleep on the
couch and not come back until he believed me. That didn’t work very well,
because we spent the next few nights apart. How could he let someone get in the
way of our relationship?

 

I finally finish
getting ready when I get an email from Olivia that Adam has to cancel our
dinner plans and jump on a flight to
New York City
. She says that he will call me when he
lands. It is weird that he doesn’t tell me in the first place. When I call him,
it goes straight to voicemail. I am bummed, so I clean the apartment.
Erin
sees how sad I am and suggests we have a
girl’s night. I am hesitant at first because it has been a while since I went
out, but
Erin
will not give up. I let her have her
way.

 

We are at Club H
and it is packed. The music is blaring and there are people all over. We get up
to the bar and take shots of royal flush. Justin Timberlake comes on and I pull
Erin
to the dance floor. We laugh and dance.
All my worries fly out the window. It is nearly three in the morning when we
call a cab to take us home. I am a little tipsy, but
Erin
is wasted. As soon as we get in, Adam
starts screaming at the both of us. Connor pulls him away from me and I stand
there wide-eyed. Oh, hell no, he is
not
going to yell at me! I scream
back telling him
Olivia
told me he had to go to
New York City
. Adam waves away what I am saying. Connor
takes
Erin
back to his room. It is just Adam and me
in the living room staring at each other. I have had enough of this shit. I
take out my phone and open the email. I shove it in his face and walk away.

 

The next evening
Erin and I are watching TV when Adam comes home and kneels down in front of me.
He looks over at
Erin
and asks if she can give us a few
minutes. She gives me a smile and walks away. I am still mad at Adam and cross
my arms. I do not want to hear his excuses. He bends his head down and starts
apologizing and telling me that he should have believed me. I still do not
respond. He takes my hands and gives me those puppy dog eyes. I can tell he is
sad and wants me to forgive him. I tell him that I am his girlfriend and I am
not crazy. We talk for the rest of the night and agree to talk to each other,
not at one another.

I finish getting
ready to visit Adam. I am wearing black wedges, a flowing white dress with a
blue cardigan. I get in the car and head to the office. I know Adam will not
like me going on my own, but I miss him and want to say hi. I pull into the
garage and park the car. I make my way into the building and take the elevator
to the top floor. I get giddy just thinking about seeing his beautiful face, my
Adam. When the door opens, I start walking to his office. Everyone is running
around and the office is busy. I feel bad bothering him in the middle of the
day but I do not think it will hurt to pop in and say hi. It is almost
lunchtime, so stealing him for an hour will not hurt. I go by Olivia’s desk and
see that she is not there. Before I walk into his office, I see them at his
computer and Olivia’s too close to him. I see her touching his shoulder and
laughing. I open the door and walk-in. “Well hello everyone.”

 

Adam turns his
head and smiles. “Baby what a pleasant surprise!” He gets up, moving Olivia to
the side and comes to me. I flash him a smile and walk up to him. His arms wrap
around my waist.

“I miss you.” I sadly say. I look over and see Olivia staring at us. I get a
weird feeling and wonder why she is just standing there. “Can I steal you away
for lunch?”

 

“Of course,
baby.” He turns to look at Olivia. “Olivia, please get the faxes out and hold
my calls.”

 

“Yes, Mr.
Simpson. Don’t forget your phone conference at
1:30
.”

 

I gently grab
Olivia’s arm and give her a smile. “Is there something I can do for you Miss.
Burns?”

“Olivia, the
next time you try and get in the way of my relationship with Adam, I
promise
you will regret it.”

 

Olivia stares
back at me but doesn’t say anything. Adam quickly gets up and takes my hand off
hers. “Alright sweetheart, let’s go.” We start walking out of the office and
onto the elevator. When the doors close, Adam bursts out laughing.

 

“You
about done?”

 

“Nope.”
He comes to me and rubs my arms. “Pretty
girl you are something else.”

 

Adam takes my
hand as we talk to
Takka’s
for lunch. We laugh and
talk about what’s been going on. He still can’t believe I did that to Olivia.
Shit even
I
can’t believe I did that.
When we get to the restaurant, we’re seated in a booth and order
We
head out and it the sashimi platter with
edamame
.

 

“How’s work
babe?” I look up at him and see the dark circles under his eyes.

 

He rubs his
eyes, “Tough sweetheart. I am sorry I haven’t been spending time with you
lately.”

 

I look down and
play with the piece of salmon on my plate. “It is ok, I understand.”

 

I know he can
hear the sadness in my voice and takes my hand. “I love you.”

 

“I love you
too.”

 

I hear his phone
go off. “I’m sorry sweetheart I have to get this.” He gets up and takes the
call. I know I should understand but I get mad because we can’t have one hour
to ourselves without being interrupted. I watch Adam as his shoulders tense and
I know the phone call isn’t bringing any good news. Adam comes back to the
table with an unreadable expression. I take his hand and look into his eyes.

 

“Everything
ok?”

 

“I have to fly
out to
California
tomorrow for an emergency meeting. I
don’t know how long I’ll be gone, one of the prototypes failed and I don’t know
what they fucking did.” His voice is stern. I am upset he is leaving and I want
to tell him to stay and let Connor deal with the problem, but I do not want to
be needy.

 

“I’m sorry you
have to go.” I wish he would ask me to go with him. At least in
California
, I would be ok and be able to go off on
my own.

 

He starts to
smile at me and I wonder what he is thinking. He pulls out his phone. “Olivia.
Please book me a room in LA for Sophia and myself. Yes. And get the jet
prepared. No, I will not need you on this trip. I need you to stay here and
help Connor with the conferences. Yes, please tell him there is an emergency
meeting that I need to attend in LA.” He pauses and listens. “Yes and thank
you.”

 

I jump in my
seat. “You’re bringing me to LA with you?”

 

“Of course,
baby. You deserve a trip out of here and it’ll give us some time to be alone.”
He winks at me and my body shakes with excitement. We finish our lunch and Adam
comes back home with me instead of going back to the office. We make love all afternoon
and I miss being with him. I miss the feeling of him in me and showing me his
love, his lips and those eyes.

 

The next
morning, Connor drops us off at the airport and we board for LA. I sleep most
of the flight while Adam works. Once we land and make it to the hotel, I am
breathless. The hotel is beautiful and so big! We check in at the counter and
make our way to the suite. My mouth drops at the size of the room, when Adam
opens the door. I run to the bed and start jumping on it. Adam looks at me
laughing and shaking his head. “How old are you baby.”

 

I bounce on the
bed like a little kid and laugh. “I don’t care. This bed is so big and comfy!”

 

“Well, I’ll be
sure to enjoy it with you tonight.” He walks over to me with a grin. “Now I’m
going to be stuck in meetings all today so I want you to enjoy yourself. I have
hired a driver for the day so go out and shop. Have fun.”

 

I pout. “But I
want to spend time with you.”

 

“And you will my
love.” He cradles my face and gives me a kiss. “Plus I have another surprise
for you.” There was a knock on the door and I look at him. “Go answer it.”

 

When I open the
door, I scream. “
ERIN
!” We both jump up and down. I cannot
believe she is here. “What are you doing here? Don’t you have class?”

“I’m just here until tomorrow.” She says with glee. “Plus I mean
California
with my girl, hell yeah!”

 

“Alright ladies
have fun and I will see you for dinner.” Adam gives me another kiss and heads
out.

 

“Wait, where are
you staying?”

 

“Connor reserved
a room for me. He wanted to come, but had to stay behind. So, I met Olivia.”
Her face scrunches and I know that look.
