Riley
For the first time in eight years, I slept like the dead without alcohol being involved. The reason why was lying in my arms, breathing softly, still asleep. I’d woken up an hour ago yet refused to move a muscle. There wasn’t anything in this world that could drag me from this bed right now.
My thoughts wandered back to last night. I had Kara practically boneless and comatose after I’d done my best to show her we were far from over in the SUV. After taking my shirt off and putting it on her, I carried her to the front seat and strapped her in. When I asked her for directions to her place, she’d come out of her fog to argue with me for five minutes.
Then she gave me the directions.
Once we arrived at her apartment door, she blocked it with her body and asked for her keys back. We argued for another five minutes about me going in with her before a wrinkled old woman came out from her own apartment across the hall and asked Kara if she needed to handle ‘this boy,’ too.
This made my eyebrows rise for more than one reason. First, because I was standing there without a shirt, and it was obvious Kara was wearing it. Secondly, because I was easily three times the lady’s size. I didn’t know the woman, who was old enough to be Moses’s sister, but she had gumption. I liked it. I also liked that she was looking out for my Kara.
Kara huffed, looked up to the ceiling, and muttered something that sounded like a prayer about interfering old broads and pushy, annoying men while stepping aside, allowing me to unlock her front door and enter.
I quickly walked into her apartment—not to be nosy, but to check and make sure it was safe—and then walked back to the front, finding Kara still standing by the door. She looked pissed with her arms crossed over her chest, a foot tapping, and her eyes glaring at me.
This was not old Kara behavior, and I liked it.
Before, my wife would have never argued with me. She would have meekly done whatever it was I wanted her to do and followed in my wake. This new Kara had attitude. She was feisty, and it made my dick hard.
While her attitude was cute, I wasn’t going to let her sling it my way when I had better plans than having her start another argument. As a result, I ignored her glare, walked up, bent and put my shoulder into her belly, and then threw her over my shoulder in a fireman’s carry.
Banging her little fists against my bare back in frustration, she screamed, “What are you doing, Riley!”
“Moving on to round two.”
“Round two?” she squeaked.
Closing the distance to her bed, I tossed her onto it as she gave a small scream. Then I watched as she bounced once before settling.
“Yeah, babe, round two.” I toed off my boots, unbuttoned my pants, and then pushed them down with my boxers, stepping out of them as she watched me.
