Without You - Page 87/125

We stayed like that for at least five minutes until our breathing slowed and steadied out.

She leaned up and kissed me so passionately. “If I knew you had such stamina, Mr. Hayes, we would have been doing that all weekend.”

I laughed as she moved up and off of me. The second she was off of me, I knew I had made the one mistake I never wanted to make. Lex stopped moving and looked at me with an expression of horror. I looked down and saw cum on my dick.

“Oh my God,” Lex whispered.

I looked up into her eyes. “Lex, I’m so sorry. I totally got so caught up in the moment, baby, that I forgot. Fuck!”

Lex just stood there, cum slowly making its way down her leg. She seemed stunned. Then, she smiled, and I looked at her like she was nuts.

“Is that why it felt so amazing?”

What?

I looked down at my dick again and then at Lex. It had felt incredible. I had thought it was from Lex being on top.

“It did feel fucking amazing,” I said.

Lex giggled. She quickly turned, walked into the bathroom, and turned on the shower.

I fell back on the bed, and my one moment of ecstasy turned into panic.

What if Lex gets pregnant? Gunner is going to kill me. I’ll never live to see the light of day. I’ll have to take over my father’s business and make furniture. No ranch for me. What about Lex and her dreams?

“What did I just do?”

“Hayes, what in the hell has been wrong with you?” Luke asked.

I looked up at him. “What do you mean?”

He shook his head as he sat down at the table where I was sitting at the cafe. “You haven’t eaten in days, you’ve been sleeping maybe three hours a night, and you look stressed as hell.”

I swallowed hard. If I told Luke what I had done, he would want to beat the hell out of me.

I shook my head. “Jesus Christ, Luke. I had sex with Lex and forgot to use a condom. I’m going crazy. What if she’s pregnant? I mean, I can’t believe I put both of our futures—”

Luke held up his hands. “Hold up. Is she on the pill? God, please tell me she is on the pill.”

I nodded my head. “Yeah, she’s on birth control.”

Luke laughed. “Then, what in the hell are you worried about?”

My mouth dropped open. “Did you hear me? Sex. No condom. Only takes one time!”

Luke sat back in his chair and looked at me as he shook his head. “Is Alex worried?”

“No! She kept going on and on about how amazing it felt, and—”

“Oh, hell no, dude. That is way too much information right there. Too. Much. Jesus H. Christ. I just threw up in my mouth some.”

I rolled my eyes and let out a laugh. “Luke, I’m being serious.”

“So am I. I don’t want that visual in my head. Yuck.”

I let out a sigh. “Have you ever forgotten to wear a condom?”

“Nope. I will wear one until the night of my wedding. No way in hell a girl will ever get me not to wear one. Hell no. I don’t care if she’s on twenty different pills. I will always wear one. Always.”

I let out a gruff laugh. “Wait until you’re with the one girl who changes everything.”

Luke stared at me and then smirked. “I gotta ask. Did it feel different?”

I smiled and nodded my head. “Felt fucking amazing. Makes me never want to wear one of those damn things again. But I have to, and I will even though Lex has begged me not to.”

“Again, too much information.” Luke was smiling as he shook his head. He glanced up, and his smile instantly vanished.

I turned around and saw Libby and Zack. They were holding hands as they walked by, and Libby was laughing. I turned back to look at Luke. He watched them go by. I couldn’t help but notice how Lib glanced at Luke and quickly looked away. I peeked over to Luke, and he looked down at his book and began reading.

My phone vibrated, and I took it out of my pocket. I smiled when I saw Lex’s name.

Lex: You can stop stressing out. I started my period.

Me: Thank the Lord above.

Lex: I am on birth control, Will.

Me: I don’t care. That scared the piss out of me.

Lex: Are you still coming this weekend?

Me: I plan on doing a lot of coming this weekend.

“Dude, that’s not cool.” Luke kicked me under the table.

“Ouch, you bastard. Why in the hell did you kick me?”

Luke tilted his head and gave me a look. “The smile on your face screams, I’m sexting. Knock it off.”

I laughed. “We’re in the clear.”
