I didn’t want to stop kissing her

It was surreal

Consu

And I wanted more

When another soft moan escaped her radually pulling away Already h my mind

I was grinning down at her as her eyes fluttered open, not re my hands froed—if anything it orse

Murainst her lips, I rasped, “Like I said, you’ve never been kissed until now Until me”

Her chest was rising and falling, as she waited for what I would say next Surprising us both when I added…

“What other first of yours can I have next?”

Now

It had been six , and I couldn’t believe how fast ti, even though they claimed we didn’t

Christian and I didn’t know they were in the barn and overheard our fight The embarrassment I felt when they confronted us seconds after Christian kissed ered in my mind

“Oha divorce?” Autu toward us

Our shocked expressions snapped to her worried gaze with Julian right behind her He was calmer and more collected which didn’t surpriseup behind everyone’s back, including her brother’s, until Julian had to leave town He couldn’t continue to lie to a family that had taken him in as if he were their own

Ten years later, they made their way back to each other, and now they were married Their special day was now ruined because of us,me feel horrible that this hat they would remember in the years to come

“Guys, please go back to your reception We can talk about this later,” I reasoned, hoping they’d listen

“No, we can talk about this now,” Autu on?”

“Long enough to knoe’re not right for each other anymore” I looked at Christian for support on this, but it was evident by his coive me an inch

“What are you talking about? That’s iether for twenty years”

“Autumn, there’s a lot you don’t know”
