SETH
This might sound super cliché and it probably only happened in books or movies, but as we showered together in the aftermath of our lovemaking, I felt a little heavy in my chest. Not only was I in love with Emily, but there was a part of me that had become a little overprotective of her.
As we stood beneath the spray, I massaged her shoulders with the soap lather and she made those sounds that I was addicted to which got my dick riled up. Fucker just hadn't had enough.
She giggled when she felt my arousal pressing into her back. "Again?"
"He's always going to be excited around you." I lick the trail of water on her neck and bit there softly. From behind, I cupped her large tits. I couldn't get enough of her.
"Did I mention you're super hot?" My voice was low and husky.
I ran my fingers over her flared ass and close to her ear, I whispered, "Next time, I'm going to bend you over and fuck you this way. You'll let me, won't you, baby?"
She gasped and then nodded. I nibbled her ear, "Not right now though. We have to get some rest. I'm tired too."
After we got dry and got back into bed. I spooned her body to mine and didn’t even realize when exhaustion took over and I slipped into a deep slumber.
I think it was the best sleep I’ve had in months.

EMILY
I woke up in the morning feeling oddly euphoric. There was a soreness between my legs but other than that I felt so much better.
When I opened my eyes, I caught him staring at me. I suddenly started feeling shy, “G’ morning.” I mumbled, being aware of the fact that he looked fresh as a daisy, and I hadn’t even brushed my teeth. Gross.
The sunlight came directly over my body, highlighting every curve and chubby fat, and it just embarrassed me further so I buried myself in the covers.
“Good morning.” He smiled. “You had a good sleep?
I nodded. “It was great.”
He looked at the clock on the bedside table. “We have a few hours until check out.” He laughed, “What do you wanna do?”
I knew what he was suggesting. “Perv. Let me brush my teeth first.”
I think it was teen hormones or just the fact that we were alone here with the knowledge that nobody was going to disturb us.
Seth was being very sweet as usual. When I came out of the bathroom, he’d already called for breakfast which we had in bed. He stole heated looks at me but never said he wanted to go again. I told him I wanted it too which was the only encouragement Seth needed to have me on my back on the bed and him drilling inside of me.
But it wasn’t hard and fast like last time. This time it was slower almost like he was making love to me, cherishing my body, taking all the time in the world to know every inch of me.
It was beautiful.
I don’t know what our future held regardless of how I wanted us to be together, but I was never going to forget this moment of him, this memory of Seth’s large body completely vulnerable on top of me, kissing me while he plunged in and out of me, whispering endearments into my ear.
We got home in the afternoon, Seth and I both took different cars, brunch on the go. He went straight to school for hockey practice and I drove home. We decided to stay only a night in the motel because Seth got a call from Coach, they had practice.
I went to school the next morning. Even though we'd secretly spent two nights together and no one knew about it, I continued to feel like there were eyes constantly following me around. I would have loved for this to be something more but Seth had been clear from the beginning that we needed to be discreet.
Sex wouldn't have changed things but as cliché, as it might sound, I was greedy for more and I mean not just his body but his heart too.
One afternoon during the same week, Seth got off from practice early. We were sprawled on the living room couch with his head in my lap, watching an old movie with Natalie Portman starring at it.
The movie was called Where the heart is. The girl in the movie played by Natalie is pregnant at seventeen and gets dumped by her asshole boyfriend which forces the poor girl to start living in a Walmart. The movie was super sad, and I remember watching it as a kid and thinking I would never get a boyfriend.
"What a tool. Who does that?" Seth commented as the scene came where Willy, her boyfriend dumps her in the supermarket and drives off.
"Well, some boys do. Do you know Karina James from our senior year? Her ex-boyfriend Cole something, he refused to even acknowledge that the baby was his when she told him about it after graduation."
"Shit, for real?"
"Yeah. I heard he was telling his friends and I quote 'the baby is probably not even mine since she was meeting up with her ex.' which wasn't true."
"I feel sorry for this girl. I know Cole is a pompous shit person but I had no idea he had a backstory like that. Where is she now?"
"I think her parents sent her to live with her aunt somewhere in Europe, I'm not so sure but there were rumors that she gave the baby away for adoption. I'm sure Cole's family pressured her to do that.”
"Rich people and their problems," Seth muttered.
"Hey, not everyone is like that."
"Ooooh, did I hit a nerve?" He asked me jokingly. He was smiling but I could recognize the bitterness in his tone.
I didn't answer instead I asked him. "What would you do?"
"About what?"
I continued to run my fingers through his dark hair, knowing it calmed him. "Say if I got pregnant..." I wet my lips, "and if I decided to leave everything behind and go with you, what would you do?"
At first, he went dead silent. The noise from the TV was the only sound in the room and I thought I screwed up with that question.
Seth sat upright beside me, his gaze was serious, fixed on me.
"First off, I'm very careful so chances of you getting pregnant are slim. Secondly, if it were to ever happen, you know what I would do."
"What would you do?"
"Of course I would take responsibility for my kid and my girl, otherwise what kind of a man would I be?"
I couldn't help but laugh as I put my arms around his waist and placed my head on his shoulder.
I liked how he wanted to be a mature grown-up man when we were just young teenagers. If I compared Seth to other boys from our school, he had gone through a lot of things in his eighteen years of life so maybe that had forced him to become a man.
"This is hypothetical, okay?"
"Kay. Hypothetical it is."
"You said you would take care of me and our kid, what does that mean? Do I get to move in with you?"
Seth had an amused expression on his face. "Yes, we live together in an apartment. I'll marry you before that." My heart thumped so loudly in my chest; I was afraid he would hear it. "I go off to play my games sometimes and you're taking care of him...wait...is the hypothetical baby he or she?"
"Twins. Boy and a girl."
Seth laughed again, "Looks like my hands are going to be full.”
It was stupid of me to wish for things that might never happen.
"In all seriousness, if something like that were to happen by accident, you should know that I would take care of my family without a doubt." He kissed my cheek, "I will never abandon you or our babies."
It was on the tip of my tongue to tell him that I loved him but something held me back. It was the fear of rejection.
My phone buzzed on the couch beside me, breaking our connection. I picked it up and swiped the screen.
“I almost forgot! I promised I would pick up Indie from the airport.” I climbed to my feet and started to go upstairs to get my bag.
“Indie? Your childhood friend?” Seth asked me when I rushed back downstairs.
“Yeah. Will you go with me to the airport?”
“Sure. I’ll drive. Let me get dressed.”
