“Faster, Luke, faster!” she yelled as her nails dug into my back.

“Ah, baby, you’re going to make me come already,” I said as I pushed deeper inside her.

I felt her swelling around my cock, and I was going to explode any second. Suddenly, she let out a loud moan as we both came at the same time. I held her face in my hands, kissed her softly on the lips, and stared into her eyes.

“Can we consider us a couple?”

“I don’t do boyfriends,” she said.

“I don’t do girlfriends, but I thought maybe we could make another exception.”

“I guess I can make another exception for you.” She smiled.

I picked her up from the counter and carried her to the bedroom.

I woke up as Lily got in the shower, and I made a pot of coffee. Grabbing my phone off the counter, I saw I had several missed calls from my mom. The voicemail indicator lit up, so I punched in my code and listened to her message.

“Hi, Luke, it’s mom. Your father and I are back from our cruise, and we’re having a family dinner this Friday night at six o’clock. Your sister told me that you’ve met someone very special, but she won’t tell me anything else, so bring her with you; I’m dying to meet her. I love you, Luke. Bye.”

I poured some coffee in a cup, took it in the bathroom, and handed it to Lily as she was getting ready for work.

“My mom called last night and left a message. She’s having a family dinner this Friday night, and she’s dying to meet you. Maddie told her about us.”

“That sounds great. I’d love to meet your family.” She smiled.

“Would you like to go to Bernie’s tonight?” I asked her.

“Sure, that sounds fun. We never did talk about that last night.”

I walked over to her and moved my hands under the towel she had wrapped around her and placed them on her small hips. “That’s because we were too busy making love all night,” I whispered as I nibbled on her ear.

She smiled, turning her head and meeting her lips with mine; I could kiss her all day. She put her hands on my chest and broke our kiss.

“I’m going to be late if we don’t stop.”

“I know, and I’m sorry. Finish getting dressed; you have approximately fifteen minutes before you have to leave.”

“Thanks for the warning,” she said as she began brushing her teeth.

I heard a knock on the door and wondered who would be at here so early in the morning. I opened it and saw Sam standing there, holding a brown bag in my face.

“Bagels for the two lovebirds.”

“Come on in, man. Thank you.”

Sam stepped inside the apartment as I took the bag from him. “Lily and I are going to Bernie’s tonight; do you and Gretchen want to join us?” I asked.

“That sounds good; I’ll ask her.”

“Want some coffee?” I asked Sam as I walked over and poured some in a cup for myself.

“Nah, I have to get going soon. Are you free to grab a burger at the burger bar this afternoon?”

“Sure, I’ll meet you there around 1:00 p.m.”

Lily came out of the bedroom, looking smoking hot. We’re going to have to role play in bed. The thought started getting me hard.

“Good morning, Lily. You’re looking as beautiful as always.” Sam smiled.

“Good morning, Sam, and thank you,” she replied as she kissed him on the cheek.

“Hot damn! I’ve been kissed by two beautiful women already this morning,” he said as he spun around and put his hand on the doorknob.

“Later, bro; I’ll see you later for that burger.”

“Later, dude. Bye, Lily,” Sam said as he waved and left the apartment.

I poured the rest of the coffee in her to-go cup and handed it to her as I walked her to her Explorer. I opened the door and wrapped my arms around her.

“Have a good day, babe,” I said as I kissed her lips.

“You too.” She smiled.

“Two burgers, medium, with everything and a side of fries,” the waitress said as she set our food in front of us.

“I’m taking Lily to family dinner Friday night,” I said as I picked up a fry.

“Wow! That’s a big step taking a girl home to meet the family. I haven’t done that with Gretchen yet. I love how I was right that you and Lily would make a great couple. You are a couple, right?”

I nodded my head as I took a bite of my burger. “Yep, we made it official last night.”

“Dude, that’s awesome.” Sam smiled as he fist-bumped me.

When we finished our lunch, Sam went back to work, and I headed to Bernie’s to talk to Maddie. I walked in the bar and took my usual seat.

“Hey, Luke. What brings you in here today?” Maddie asked.

“I know you talked to Mom last night. I listened to her message this morning, and she knew about Lily.”

“I may have mentioned that you’ve met someone and that she’s really special. I hope you’re not mad.”

“No, I’m not mad at all. It actually bought me some time before the million questions Mom’s going to be asking me about her.”

Maddie set a beer down in front on me. “Luke, my boy, tell me you’re here to give me your decision?” Bernie said as he came from the storage room with a box in his hands.

“Not yet, Bernie, but I promise you’ll have my answer by the end of the week,” I replied.

“You’re actually thinking about buying the bar again?” Maddie leaned over the bar and asked.

“Yeah, I’m thinking about it, but I want to talk to Lily about it first. We were supposed to talk about it last night, but we kind of got distracted by a bathtub, a countertop, and a bed.”

“Whoa, stop right there!” Maddie said as she put her hand up.

I finished my beer and got up from the stool. “Later, Bernie; Lily and I will be in tonight. See ya, sis,” I said as I kissed her on the cheek.

Lily

I grabbed my bags and headed to the Explorer. Once I got inside, I inserted the key—nothing. The fucking thing wouldn’t start. I took in a deep breath and calmly turned the key—nothing. “Damn—damn—damn it!” I yelled as I slammed my hands against the steering wheel. I pulled out my phone and dialed Luke. Please answer, please answer, I thought to myself.

“Hey, babe, are you on your way home?” he answered.

“I never made it out of the parking lot; my truck won’t start!”

“Sit tight, I’ll be there shortly.”

“Thank you, I—I’ll be here!”

I couldn’t believe what almost came out of my mouth. Just then, a text message came through from Gretchen.

“Sam and I will be joining you at Bernie’s tonight. Make sure you have your dancing shoes on, because we’re going to get down and dirty!”

I laughed as I replied, “Alright, but we have to get the guys to dance with us. If Luke dances, then he’s perfect. I love a man who can dance!”

I looked up and saw Luke pulling into the parking lot. I let out a sigh of relief when he was in his Jeep and not on his bike. Pulling up next to me, he smiled, and I gave him a small wave and a smile in return. I was so happy to see him. I got out of the Explorer as he got out of his Jeep, and I hugged him tight.
