My Best Friend's Brother

Chapter 18

"Do you know... how much it hurt... not being able to kiss you for all those years?" Aaron asked between kisses as we stumbled into my poorly lit home.

In the shadow of his face was so close to mine, I could smell his familiar musky fragrance. Our mouths molded together sloppily as I struggled to slip off my heels, tossing my purse and keys on a nearby table.

His strong hands roamed my back and waist. I felt so fragile and petite compared to his tall and muscular frame towering over me. Leaning on my tip toes with my arms wrapped around his neck trying to pull him closer.

"Considering... I was in love with you too, I have a pretty good idea." I breathed as Aaron trailed kisses across my face, down my neck. Running my hands through his hair, pushing him gently closer. I couldn't get enough of him.

Focusing completely on Aaron's touch. His fingertips making their way under my shirt, scratching softly against my back. My lips against his as we slowly, yet passionately kissed. It was intense, so intense that I felt like I could get lost in it. I never wanted this to end.

I've waited for this moment for as long as I could remember. Directing him towards my bedroom before I felt my back press against the door handle. Aaron pressed me firmly against the door as I felt his hand underneath my skirt.

His soft callused hands inched further up my thigh. Sighs and moans passed between our meeting lips. No longer trying not to fight and lose myself completely within him. I allowed myself to completely be subdued by him and my adoration of him after all these years.

This was the most love and freedom I've ever felt in my whole life.

Having to pull away to catch my breath made Aaron groan in displeasure. His soft lips kissed my neck once again as I painted in his ear fumbling with his t-shirt.

"You drive me crazy, Betty." Aaron's low and husky voice growled against my flushed skin, making my stomach clench. My heart swooned at his childhood nickname for me.

He quickly threw off his shirt as I moved my hand around the wall behind me trying to find the doorknob again.

Gripping it and opening my bedroom door suddenly made me stumble backwards letting out a small laugh. Aaron grinned down at me as I held onto his toned shoulders and he grabbed my waist.

Aaron kicked the door closed as he watched me take off my gray, fitting long sleeve shirt. I stood before him in my flattering black lace bra and wavy disheveled hair fanned around my chest and shoulders.

With his eyes locked on mine, he took a step closer. I wasn't sure if my heart had ever pounded so fast in my life.

"What?" I asked self consciously, barely above a whisper as his dark eyes roamed my face, raking me up and down in the dark. The only light in the room was from the bright L.A city lights overlooking the beach.

Adjusting my hair away from my eyes growing nervous, never tearing our eyes away from each other. He took one long stride closer to me, bringing his hand to my face.

His face softened looking down at me with so much emotion it confused and overwhelmed me. His thumb gently caressed my cheek as he studied me. "You're so beautiful." Aaron breathed.

"Even before. I always thought you were the prettiest girl in school." Aaron confessed seriously as I couldn't help but laugh. "What are you talking about? I was a mess." I scoffed amused.

"You have the most breathtaking smile. A laugh that always lit a fire within me." Aaron kissed along my neck again making my eyes roll in the back of my head. "I could stare into your hazel eyes for hours memorizing every single shade of color." I continued as I ran my fingers through his hair.
