Ch. 15

"Movies, popcorn, some refreshment, enough pillows and a blanket in case someone should get cold.", Mia runs from one corner of the living room to the other.

Why is she so excited? It's not the first time that they do something together. Then why does it feel like something is happening today that changes everything? Maybe that has something to do with what she wants to suggest to him ...

With a look at the clock she realizes that Jack has been closed for over an hour. Suddenly she regrets that she told him to come when he's finished with everything. Who knows when that will be. Maybe he has so much on his mind that he still falls asleep at home and she waits for him here until tomorrow morning.

She should have given him a time. Then she would at least notice if he moved her.

Mia nervously strokes the apartment. The second hand takes ages to move from the spot. The bottle of wine that she opened yesterday for a glass has lost some of its contents. By the time Jack shows up, she's probably a little cheerful.

What she has to reveal to him is nothing to joke about.

If only Jack would finally show up.

Following an intuition, she approaches the front door and is almost frightened to death when the doorbell rings. Relieved, she pushes the door opener to let Jack in.

"Hey, I'm sorry I'm late, but the girl in my case changed her testimony."

"No problem. I also had a lot to do. ”To think about whether he would come or not! And whether she shouldn't let it go and read it off. "Then it'll fit." Jack hugs her and doesn't let go of her longer than necessary. He's still in his suit, his blond hair all messed up. You can also see a small shadow of a beard. In short, he looks a bit finished with the world.

"Come in. You look like you could need some relaxation. “, He nods gratefully and makes himself comfortable on the sofa and helps himself to the still cool beer that is on the table. "The case is trickier than I thought." As if he still couldn't believe it, he shakes his head. "Tell me something.", His blue eyes capture her. "Why do you women always like guys who don't stand by you or who act like assholes around you?"

Mia sits cross-legged next to him. "That's a good question. I have no idea why we are so into the bad boys. The guys are just so manly. Wide chest. Tattooed arms and long hair. If there is a motorcycle in the game, we women are drooling. Why do you guys like women who have nothing in their brains and invest their money in breast enlargements and buttock implants? ", Jack rocks his head back and forth. "The point is yours, but what if your boyfriend doesn't want to show himself off with you in public. What motivates you to stay with him? ", Mia ponders.

“My personal opinion on that? A woman shouldn't even get involved with one of these. It pulls you down and undermines your self-esteem. This is not healthy, but some women just believe that guys change when they are loved. They believe that only with love and affection can they change man's character. Either the members of the male sex have only looked to such a woman and are turning their lives upside down or they do not appreciate what they have and the friends are going under ...

How did we get back to the subject? ”Jack sighs. "There are new findings in my case and they have to do with why women are into guys who absolutely do not deserve them."

"I'm sorry. Hopefully the girl will see that the boy is not worth it and that there are so many things in life that she has not yet experienced and that are worth staying alive. ”, A sad subject.

“Your work day is over. The weekend is just around the corner and you have to worry about the case again when your alarm clock rings and you toss it from the bedside table while still half asleep. "" Hey, how do you know that my alarm clock has some dents that fit my wall? ", they laugh.

Should she now bring up why she invited Jack in the first place? Or is it better to wait and loosen up the mood a bit? Jack makes the decision for her.

“How is Hayley? Are you okay with your child? “, Mia lays her head on his shoulder. It was an exhausting day. “She is doing pretty well given the circumstances. She will be released in a few days. With the baby, it is not yet certain whether Hayley is allowed to go, but that will be decided soon. ", She takes a breath.

"Guess who I met today?", Gentle fingers run through her hair. "No idea. Don't torture me. “, Mia lifts her head and looks into Jack's eyes. "I visited Emilia in the clinic and sat there ...", she doesn't get any further that she is interrupted by Jack in disbelief. “You visited Emilia? I didn't expect that. How so??"

“Actually, I wanted to tell you that I came across Aria in Emilia's room. She also visits Emilia. ", Jack's eyebrows he raised so far that they almost slip into his hairline. His blue eyes are wide and his lips are slightly parted.

"I can not believe it. I can not believe it. We men will never understand you women. If a guy had pulled off what Emilia did to you, I wouldn't look at him with my ass anymore and you visit her too? "Okay, that didn't quite go in the direction she expected. “Jack, everyone makes mistakes and most deserve a second chance. You should know that best. ”, That sat. For a moment she thinks she sees hurt in his eyes, but it is gone so quickly that she is not entirely sure. “Emilia is not the nicest person, I know that. And she didn't slip into the scene out of joke and frolic. She didn't take this stuff for fun. ”, Jack doesn't look at her anymore. He watches the bowl with the chips, fascinated. Mia takes a deep breath and takes his hand in hers.

"Jack! Please look at me. "Reluctantly, he turns his attention back to her. It can now be seen very clearly in his eyes. He is hurt. He feels attacked and maybe even guilty. Now is the time.

“Jack, you made no mistake. You just listened to your mind and that's not a bad thing. Many people rely on their heads more than their hearts and they are happy with it. But there are also people for whom that doesn't work and you have now found out with Summer that mental decisions are not exactly helpful in relationship issues. I know that Summer was just platonic in nature ... and the way you looked at me yesterday ... ", Mia's cheeks start to glow. How embarrassing is that?! Your whole body is electrified. It literally vibrates.

“At the beginning I made it clear that I just wanted a friendship. That I can no longer trust you and therefore a relationship is no longer possible, but in the last few days or weeks we have gotten so close again. I ... I thought that I was over you, that you are over me, but yesterday ... “, a completely different heat is now rising inside her. When she thinks about the kiss, her legs go very weak. How his hands caressed her body while their mouths melted together. She no longer knew exactly where her body ends and his begins. Everything around her was forgotten in an instant. The only thing that still mattered was Jack.

His lips that she missed from the second they parted. His hands that are so big that they can encircle her breasts. His blue eyes, in which she would love to lose herself, and his humor, with which he makes her impatient even before he touches her.

#

Jack has not yet found out what Mia is trying to achieve with her little speech.

In addition, he was NEVER even remotely over them. He soon regretted his decision to choose Summer and has since worked on a battle plan to win Mia over without hurting more people. But she doesn't have to know that exactly.

He waits eagerly for what she will say next, but suddenly she seems to be in a completely different place with her thoughts. Her light green eyes have darkened and her gaze has wandered from his eyes to his mouth.

She talked about yesterday. Your kiss. In response to this realization, a satisfied mini version of himself dances in his head. Mia still has feelings for him and she can no longer deny that. Not after yesterday and definitely not after your little, not yet complete, speech today.

He decides to discreetly sit down a little differently and thus get her out of hers. It's flattering that she daydreams about him, but he's more interested in what Mia is getting at. Jack turns his body completely towards her and touches her knees.

Within a second she is suddenly sitting bolt upright and her eyes are sharp. Color shoots her cheeks. How sweet! She should know that he loves it when she blushes. Not many women still have this gift.

But when he feels that she swings her legs off the couch and tries to stand, he intervenes. "No. No. No. You have just started something here and I would like to know what the end looks like. ”He gently puts his arm around her waist to pull her back next to him. He doesn't feel any resistance. Well! It feels way too good to see Mia sitting halfway on his lap.

It's quiet for a while. Nobody says anything. During these minutes, Jack simply enjoys the feeling of skin on skin. Her back is pressed against his chest. Her head is on his shoulder and her nose almost touches his neck. Jack sat down with his legs apart and pulled Mia between them.

The trousers that pack your bottom rub against the middle. Not in any provocative way, but simply because it can't be prevented and it feels heavenly. He could spend the whole night and the day after that. He has placed his hands on her stomach. He can feel her every breath and if he were to move his thumb up a little he could feel the underside of her chest. If he stroked more southerly regions with his little finger, he would feel the elastic waistband of his pajamas, under which he could get so easily. At the thought of it, his heart starts beating faster.

Even if he has known that for a while, at this moment he realizes once again how much he needs Mia in his life and not just as a girlfriend. He loves her.

He loves Mia and he still has no idea how to teach her that.

"Jack?" She mumbles against his neck. "Mh?" He replies, unable to form words for a moment. His name on her lips in this pitch do funny things to his body. Hopefully she won't notice that right away and will shrink away.

"What I actually wanted to tell you is ... I still like you." Jack's heart warms. He likes to hear that, but the next moment he draws in a sharp breath. Mia continues to snuggle up to his neck. Her lips brush his skin, he even thinks he felt her tongue for a moment, but he must have imagined that. Then she takes a deep breath through her nose, "Mmmmmmmh!"

Did she just smell him and then purr like a cat? Jack bites his lower lip. Is that hot. Now she can't take the bulge in his pants for anything other than what it is, right? Whatever went on in Mia tonight, he doesn't mind. Nothing.

He gives in to temptation after us moves his hands. Very slowly he stretches across her chest and the next moment he can hardly hold back a moan as she stretches towards him.

"Jack?" She whispers, sliding her body up on him. “Mh?” He can't play the passive for a long time. "I miss you. I miss our kisses. I miss our looks that devour each other. I miss being abused as a pillow by you. “, Mia's hands caress his thighs. She tries to move his hands to stroke her breasts by sliding his hands.

He tried. But a man simply cannot resist a woman like Mia for long. So he gives in and embraces her chest. She moans and he steps in when he notices that she has no bra on.

There. There it was again. He didn't imagine her tongue on the back of his neck. "You're going to kill me.", Her nipples stretch out towards him and he plays with them. Drives her just as crazy as he drives her.

He has to know. A hand goes under her waistband. "I'm in heaven," he groans. Mia is wet. Your panties are completely soaked. Mia rubs against him and at the same time tries to guide his hand into her middle. "Please, Jack."

How can he not grant her this wish? But he needs her mouth. He must feel her lips on his. From one moment to the next they are lying on the sofa. He over her. His mouth on hers. Much better!

His fingers find their center and penetrate into them. Jack smothered the sensual exclamation with a burning kiss. “Jack, Jack ... I'm so close now. I am ... Ahhh. ", Is that sexy that she reacts so intensely to his touch. His excitement almost kills him. He falls hungry on her neck. Kisses, tastes and smells on her. Mia below him relaxes her noticeably. But that doesn't last long when he takes one of her nipples through her top into his mouth. “Jack, Jack! We have to ... “, the rest of the crowd drowns in a sigh as he delights the other nipple.

His mind has not been active for a long time. He doesn't even know what a mind is. All of his senses are focused on Mia. He doesn't need more. Everything he needs is under him.

"I love you!" He whispers in her ear and he notices how she stiffens under him.

Shit, it was too early for that. Has he missed his second chance yet?
