Chapter 31

Thursday

“Miller, just tell me your name.” I needed a confession from him stat. Because I was pretty sure we were only a few seconds away from being naked again.

“Miller is my name.”

“You’re being ridiculous. Just tell me.”

He groaned. “Why does it matter?”

“Because I’m dreaming of a future with you. And I always imagined I’d know the first name of the person I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.”

His eyes dropped to my lips. “The rest of your life, huh?”

“If you tell me your name.”

He just kept staring at my lips, like he was daring me to kiss him instead of continuing this discussion.

“It’s important to me. Please.”

He sighed and his eyes met mine again. “Fine. But I can’t undo it once you know. And you might never look at me the same.”

“How could it possibly be that bad?”

He groaned and closed his eyes. And then he squinted at me like he didn’t really want to see my reaction. “It’s…Richard.”

Oh. Oh. “Richard?” Like my dad? I almost laughed because I thought he was kidding. But he wasn’t looking at me like he was kidding around.

“Yeah Richard. As in…the same as your father’s name.”

I laughed. “Yeah I got that. Little Dicky.”

“Fuck, don’t call me that. You’ve seen my dick.”

“Big Dicky?”

“You promised you’d keep calling me Miller,” he said with a laugh.

“I can’t believe your name is Richard. That’s so weird.”

“Whatever, kid.”

“Don’t kid me!” I tickled his side.

“Don’t Little or Big Dicky me!” He flipped me over and retaliated to my tickle attack with what I can only describe as a tickle onslaught.

“Stop! I can’t breathe!” I said through my laughter. “Stop it, Big Dicky!”

He tickled me harder. And right when I was about to protest again he captured my laughter with a kiss. A kiss like the one we’d shared outside. Like he was starving for me. It was the weirdest sensation, kissing and laughing. Like somehow my joy extended into him and his transferred to me. I couldn’t remember ever feeling this happy. Or this desperate for someone’s touch.

Fuck. How could I go from laughing so hard one minute to being so completely aroused the next? I wrapped my legs around his waist as he deepened the kiss.

“God, Brooklyn.” He put his forehead against mine. “If it wasn’t snowing so hard. And it wasn’t Christmas. I’d be out there buying a huge box of condoms.”

It made me laugh. Thinking about the huge box of condoms my uncle had bought me when he thought I was being promiscuous made me laugh even harder. I hadn’t been. At the time I hadn’t needed them at all. But thinking about my uncle gifting me the box made me remember something really important. “Oh my God. I have something for you.”

“Wait you have a condom?”

“No. I wish. But I have a present for you.” I’d left it outside on the front step this whole time. In the middle of a huge snowstorm. There was no way it wasn’t completely ruined. Crap.

Miller didn’t move to let me up.
