The feel of soft lips kissing his face woke Brad up early the next morning. Opening his eyes, he found Alicia sitting on the side of his bed wearing a pair of jeans, a green t-shirt and her adorable glasses perched on top of her cute nose.
How did she get out of bed and get dressed without waking him? Was he really that tired?
“What are you doing up so early?” he asked, pulling her soft body on top of his. “I thought we could make love one more time before I left this morning.”
Alicia kissed him on the mouth and then rolled off his body to sit back on the edge of the bed. “I can’t. As much as I would love to I’ve plans this morning. My sister will be here shortly with breakfast and then I’m off to Zack and Traci’s to start the ground work on their interviews.”
Brad tried not to be disappointed, but he was. “I had plans for us today too, baby.”
Taking her hand, Brad slid it underneath the cover and wrapped it around his cock. “He wanted a little love this morning. Can’t you play for at least twenty minutes? I hate to make it so quick, but I can if we don’t have that much time.”
Alicia gave him a slight squeeze and then brushed her thumb over the tip. Brad could sense Alicia was weakening. He only had to work his magic a little more.
“Please baby. Do you want me to be like this all day? I will be because all I’ll be thinking about is how I missed out on making love to you this morning.”
“Thirty minutes,” Alicia agreed as she let go of his erection.
Flipping Alicia back on the bed, Brad quickly took off her shirt and worked on the button of her jeans as he lowered his head for a kiss. “No more than forty-five minutes,” Brad swore right before he kissed Alicia.
Forty minutes later, Alicia was pulling her t-shirt down over her jeans as she hurried towards the bedroom door before Brad grabbed her and yanked her against his naked chest.
“Tell Chloe I said hi,” he whispered against her mouth as the doorbell rang followed by a loud knock at the front door.
“Get in the shower and then put your clothes back on that gorgeous body of yours,” Alicia said, shoving Brad away from her and rushing out of the room.
“I’m coming,” she yelled as she raced towards the stairs.
She rushed down them and brushed her hair down and straightened her clothes. Alicia took a deep calming breath and then opened the door smiling at her sister who was frowning at her holding a large brown paper sack in her hand.
“What were you doing?” Chloe came inside the house, her eyes raking over Alicia from head to toe. “I was outside for almost five minutes.”
“Oh, I was upstairs. I didn’t hear the doorbell at first,” Alicia answered quickly slamming the door closed.
Chloe gave her another searching look before heading into the kitchen and placing the bag on the island. “Well, I’m glad you finally came because I was worried about the food getting cold on us.” Her sister removed a white container of food out of the bag along with a drink. It smelled delicious. “Go sit at the table while I get mine.”
Alicia took the food from her sister, moved over to the table and took a seat. She took a sip of her drink which turned out to be orange juice. Minutes later, Chloe joined her and flipped open her container.
Alicia opened hers and her eyes grew wide at the sausage, eggs, two biscuits and four strips of bacon piled there in front of her. God, she hoped that Chloe didn’t think she would be able to eat all of this food.
“Why in the world did you get me so much to eat?” she complained as she waved her hand over the mound of breakfast food. She was usually a coffee girl for breakfast with a donut tossed in on a rare occasion.
“Oh, it’s not that much and you’ll burn it off with the way you move around,” Chloe said before eating a fork full of scrambled eggs.
“You might be able to work it off that easily, but I won’t.” Alicia looked at her tall, model thin sister. Chloe had the perfect body that never seemed to gain an ounce of fat on it.
Shaking her head, she picked up a biscuit, tore it open and placed a sausage on it then took a bite. She tried not to moan at how good the food tasted. This was the main reason she stayed away from breakfast food, it was her one weakness. Grabbing her orange juice, she took a sip and then placed it back on the table.
“Are you going to tell me the real reason you came for a visit?” Alicia knew her sister and Chloe never did anything without a damn good reason behind it.
“I missed my kid sister and wanted to catch up with her.” Chloe took a bite of her biscuit, followed by a bite of bacon.
Alicia ate some more of her food while she stared at Chloe. No, her sister wasn’t being completely truthful with her. There was something up and she would get down to the bottom of it.
“Don’t believe you. Try again.”
Chloe picked up her orange juice and took a long sip. “How about you tell me about you and that handsome boyfriend of yours? How serious is it? Did you have fun with him at dinner last night?”
Alicia was thinking for an answer to pacify her sister when Chloe’s eyes got round as saucers as she glanced over her shoulder. Before she could turn around a soft kiss was placed on the back of her neck.
“Good morning, gorgeous,” Brad whispered against her skin. “Sorry, I took so long in the shower. I wish you’d been there.”
She felt her face grow warm as Chloe took another sip of her orange juice, but didn’t say a word. God, she was going to get it after Brad left. Why did he have to do this to her?
“Hmmm…I was wondering if you were still here,” Alicia answered as she got up from her chair and faced Brad. She swallowed down a moan at how good he looked with his dark hair still damp and his suit jacket folded over his arm. He could have been a model on any runway.
“You know I wouldn’t leave without telling you goodbye,” he said, reaching around her grabbing a piece of bacon and biting down on it. “God, this is so good.”
Alicia grabbed the container off the table, closed it up and gave it to Brad. “Here you can have the rest. I won’t eat anymore of it.” She had to get Brad out of here before Chloe teased him or worse, her.
“Are you sure?” Brad asked taking the food from her. “I don’t want you missing out on the most important meal of the day because of me.”
“No, I’m sure. I’ll be okay.”
“Thank you, baby,” he said then kissed her again making her body melt against his.
The sound of her sister clearing her throat broke them apart. Alicia’s eyes caught Chloe’s and her sister had a huge smile on her face that spread from ear to ear.
“Brad, I better tell you good morning now before my sister kisses all of the breath from your body,” Chloe teased.
“Good morning, Chloe,” Brad replied, wrapping his arm around Alicia’s waist. “I might be the guilty party instead of your sister. I can’t help it, but I love kissing her. It happens when you’re in love with someone.”
Alicia could tell that Brad’s answer pleased her sister by the way she leaned back in the kitchen chair and tilted her head to the side. Chloe could be a ball buster when she wanted to, but she sensed that for some reason Chloe liked Brad.
“Alicia, why don’t you walk your boyfriend to the door,” she suggested. “I’ll stay here and we can talk some more when you get back.”
She quickly grabbed Brad’s hand and tugged him from the room before Chloe said another word to embarrass her. Anyway, she did want some more alone time with Brad before he had to leave because she wasn’t sure when they would meet up later today.
At the front door, Alicia smiled up at Brad and she couldn’t help the wonderful memories that came rushing back from last night. “I really loved last night. It was wonderful.”
Brad glanced back at the kitchen before yanking her against him with his free hand. “I would rather be upstairs making love to you instead of heading back to my house, but thank you for this morning. I think I might actually be able to make it through my day without going crazy for you.”
Why did Brad have to seduce her with his words and her sister was right in the other room?
“I’m going to miss you too, but we can meet up later after I finish with the interviews.” Alicia kissed Brad and tried to move back, but he pulled her closer and reclaimed her mouth for a deeper kiss.
“I really don’t want to leave you,” Brad complained against her mouth.
“I know, I feel the same way, but think about the fun we’ll have when we meet up later today,” Alicia pointed out.
Stepping back, Brad stared down at her with his gorgeous blue eyes. “You’re right. I need to stop at home and change out of this suit anyway before I head to work. In addition, I need to talk to Lee about a few things too.”
Alicia heard the concern in Brad’s voice. What was going on that she didn’t know about? “Do you want to talk? I can ask my sister to leave.”
Brad shook his head. “No, let me talk to Lee first and then I’ll fill you in.” Brad gave her another quick kiss and walked around her then opened the front door. Looking over his shoulder, Brad winked at her before closing the door behind him. “Goodbye, gorgeous. I’ll see you later on.”
“Are you still trying to deny that you’re in love with that handsome man?” Chloe questioned behind her.
Rolling her eyes, Alicia faced her big sister who she loved dearly but wished she would stay out of her personal life. She knew what she was doing and didn’t need any help from anyone else.
“I’m not going to discuss Brad with you. So, are you ready to tell me why you’re here? I know that it isn’t just to catch up with each other.”
“Mom and Dad have been asking about you. Aren’t you ever going home for a visit? They really do miss seeing you.”
Alicia didn’t forget how her parents acted the last time she went to see them. She had enough of the complaining about her career choice and their indifference towards her.
“Sorry, I can’t. I’ve a big story I’m working on. I don’t have any extra time to take off to visit them.” Alicia left the living room and brushed past her sister to go back into the kitchen.
Walking around the kitchen, Alicia cleaned up the remainder of breakfast on the table tossing it into the trashcan. She wasn’t getting into this with her sister. Her mind was made up and she wasn’t about to change it.
