“Don’t stop,” Annie begged him, meeting his easy thrusts with more eager ones, forcing him to sink deeper into her willing, wet flesh. “Don’t ever stop, Eric,” she whispered again, meeting his thrusts with her own, feeling another orgasm waiting in the recesses of her belly. “Please, make me come again…” He groaned, ramming his cock into her. The linoleum made little squeaking sounds under the legs of the cot as they rocked. They had already slid partway across the floor in their lust. He pushed himself up on his arms and rolled his hips, shoving himself deep into her. Annie nodded, her eyes half-closed, grabbing his biceps and digging her nails in, her thighs gripping him tight.
“Yes,” she whispered, reaching her pinnacle and feeling herself being pushed off the edge. She was falling into it, her body quivering and shivering as she went, the world fading to black around the edges. There’s nothing better than this.
Eric’s shaft throbbed with delicious release, and she felt him filling her, white hot waves of pleasure flooding her insides. Her body curled around him, wanting to keep him close. His breath was ragged in her ear as he kissed her cheek, her throat, and she gave a soft, shaky sigh.
The sound of a door made them both jump and glance up in a panic.
“Uh oh,” Annie whispered, and then giggled.
Thankfully, it was the outer door, not the one to the room they occupied.
Eric grinned and kissed the tip of her nose, rolling off her with a groan. They both started fumbling with their clothes, buttoning and straightening as quickly as they could.
“Hey…” Eric’s eyes searched her face as he stood, tucking in his shirt.
“That whole fainting thing… are you really okay?” She smiled, standing to tuck her blouse into her skirt. “Don’t I look okay?”
“You look…” He pulled her to him, his eyes moving over her.
“Fantastic… downright edible, actually… hmm, now there’s something I could do again…” His fingers were edging the hemline of her skirt back up.
“Now who’s incorrigible?” Annie laughed, slapping his hand away and sitting down on the cot.
“All right, don’t make me get all serious,” he said with a wink.
She smoothed her hair, finally meeting his eyes. “Do I look different to you?”
He frowned, studying her face, and then nodded. “Now that you mention it…”
“I’m pregnant, Eric.” She bit her lip, waiting for his reaction.
He blinked, staring at her, and then sank down onto the cot beside her.
“Well… I guess that explains the fainting!”
“Is that all you have to say?” she pouted.
He grinned. “Is it mine?”
“You ass!” She shoved at him, but couldn’t help grinning back. “Why do you think I was looking for you?”
Eric shrugged, trying to hide his smile. “My mother said it was because you wanted my money.”
“Your mother—?!” Annie shook her head, looking for words. “Your mother is a piece of work! Do you have any idea?”
He nodded, laughing. “Why do you think I don’t tell her where I am?” Annie snorted. “Well, I don’t blame you.”
“You know,” Eric fingered the top button of her blouse, “as a psychologist you’ve probably heard what they say… about men marrying women like their mothers…”
Annie’s jaw dropped. “Very funny. I am nothing like your mother!”
“No?” He winked, fingering her top button. “God, I can’t resist you…”
“No!” she protested. “What if someone comes in?”
“You weren’t worried about that five minutes ago.” He smiled. “Besides, I can turn out the light.”
Annie stuck her tongue out. “I think I’d like to do everything with the lights on from now on.”
“Sounds good to me.” He slid his hand over her blouse and cupped her breast. “My, you’ve really grown! I knew there was something different…” Annie flushed. “Eric!”
He caressed her nipple, looking into her eyes. “So, does this mean I get to keep you?”
“Do you want to keep me?” she whispered, shivering at his touch.
“Yeah, sure, why not?” He smiled. “Well, wait a minute… do you cook? My roommate can make gourmet meals. If I’m gonna trade him in for you…” She laughed. “Sorry, babe, with me you only get boxed macaroni and cheese and hot dogs.”
Polly opened the door and peered in at them. “Hey, good, you’re okay!
Listen, I have to lock up for the day.”
Eric nodded and waved to Polly as she poked her head back out the door.
He made a face at Annie. “What about chicken pot pies? Can you make those?”
“If you have a microwave,” Annie quipped. “Roommate? What’s this about a roommate?”
Eric grinned. “I’m guess I’m gonna have to tell Herman you’re moving in.”
“I’m moving in?” Annie was so stunned by that news that it took her a moment to realize what name he had spoken. When she made the connection, her eyes widened and something tightened in her belly. “Herman? Your roommate’s name is Herman?”
“Yeah. He’s a great guy, you’ll love him.”
Annie gulped. “Does he have a tattoo on his upper arm? Funny looking Greek characters?”
Eric’s eyes widened. “Yeah… why, have you met?”
“I think we have,” she smiled, shaking her head in disbelief. “It sure is a small world.”
Eric helped her to stand. “Come on, beautiful, let’s go home.”
“Are you really okay with the whole baby thing?” she asked, grabbing for his hand as they headed out the door and down the stairs.
“Yes.” He pulled her to him, kissing her hard enough to bruise her flesh.
His eyes were serious when he said, “I’m so glad you found me.” She gasped, holding onto him, and murmured into his neck. “I’m glad I looked.”
“So… now we have to tell my mother.” He sounded amused.
“And my sisters,” she added, following him down the stairs.
He groaned. “Okay, that’s it, me and you under a dark table for the rest of our lives!”
“I could live with that.”
Annie felt a flutter in her belly as she pressed herself against him and kissed him fully in the daylight. They stood together like a beginning, the warm spring sun a gentle blessing on them both as they merged together in the doorway, ignoring the people passing by, lost in their finding of one another.
