“So, this is where I say no?” she asked. He stepped forward, her body right in front of his, the heat of her a caress on his skin. He cupped her face.

“Do you trust me?” he asked.

“Of course, I do. I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t.”

Then he lowered his head and brushed his lips against hers.

She moaned, wrapping her arms around him, her hands moving up and down his back.

He smiled against her lips before arching her neck slightly, deepening the kiss. He needed her taste, needed her groans and moans.

He pushed his hands through her hair, tugging slightly on the pink and blond strands so they moved from her face, and he could angle her the way he wanted.

She sent a shocked gasp into his mouth as he tugged a little harder. He pulled away, panting, looking down at her face.

“Too much?” he asked, worried.

“No. I don’t know. What are we doing?” she asked, her voice breathy.

“Anything we want.”

“I thought this wasn’t supposed to be real. If we keep doing this with no one watching, then it’s real.”

A smile crept over Aaron’s face. “If we do this while people are watching, we might end up in jail,” he said with a laugh.

Her skin turned a pretty pink that matched her hair. He kissed her again.

“This is just us. You and me, like I said.”

“We’re fake engaged, but not fake anything else?” she asked.

“That works for me.” And then he stopped that line of conversation with a kiss, afraid that if they kept discussing it, they would talk themselves out of what they were doing.

The whole situation was too fraught with mistakes and potholes that could ruin everything. So, they wouldn’t talk about it.

He kept kissing her before letting his hands roam down her curves, over her hips. He squeezed them, and she arched towards him, his dick pressing into her stomach.

They both groaned, and then he pulled away, needing air.

“You trust me?” he asked again.

“I already said… Of course, I do.” She narrowed her eyes, a smile playing on her lips.

“What exactly have you been reading in those romance books of yours?”

He grinned then before throwing his head back and laughing.

“A lot of kinky shit that you’re probably not going to want on a first date,” he said, laughing some more.

“I’ve read the same books as you, thank you very much. Which book are we talking about?”

He named one that he knew they had both read, even though it wasn’t the most popular one.

Her eyes widened, and she smiled. “Well, I think some of that could be fun. But we remain friends, right? Because that’s what we need. Friends first. Always.”

He nodded solemnly before kissing her again. “Friends always,” he whispered before reaching down and sliding his hands under her dress to grab her ass. He lifted her into the air.

She squealed and wrapped her legs around his waist before he latched his mouth to hers again, kissing her while carrying her towards the back of the house.
