Laces and Lace

It would be a blessing, and he honestly couldn’t wait for that part of their life. Threading his fingers in her hair, he brought his mouth down on hers, feasting on her succulent mouth as his body caught on fire with desire for her. It seemed like he was constantly hard, wanting her at every second. He couldn’t believe that his hopes and dreams were coming true. That he finally had Lacey as his.
“I still don’t believe this,” he whispered against her lips.
Her lips curved in a little half grin as she nodded. “Yeah, but it’s real. It’s us, Karson.”
“Forever,” he promised, running his thumb along her cheekbone. “And then some.”
Her cheeks reddened as she nuzzled her nose with his. “I know I’ve said it a billion times, but I do love you, Karson.”
He smiled as he framed her face with his hands. “Don’t ever stop saying it either. I love you too, Lacey.”
She gave him a happy grin before wrapping her arms tightly around his neck, holding him close to her. Letting out a contented sigh, he smiled as she said, “I really need to check my phone.”
“Why?” he asked incredulously. “The outside world is on that phone.”
“Exactly. I ran off without telling anyone where I was going. My family is probably freaking out.”
“Yeah, mine too,” he said, letting out a groan. “I know that when my mom saw I was scratched from the game tonight, she probably flipped. That’s why I shut my phone off.”
She giggled. “Great, now she is going to think I told you to shut it off so we could elope.”
“Ha, my mom knows me. She’ll know I convinced you to do this.”
“Didn’t take much convincing,” she laughed, but he set her with a look.
“Whatever, I saw the panic on your face.”
“Of course, it was out of left field!” she said, her face full of delight before she ran her thumb along his bottom lip. “But it was probably the smartest left-field suggestion on the face of this earth.”
He chuckled as she smothered him with kisses. Rolling him onto his back, she covered him with her sexy body and smiled down at him. “We did this,” she said and he nodded.
“We did,” he said, kissing her palm and then the finger that held her engagement ring and wedding band.
“We really need to tell people.”
“Yeah,” he said, sliding his hands up her thighs before cupping her sweet ass. “Or I can sit here and massage your ass before hitting it again.”
She scoffed as she shook her head. “You’re impossible.”
“You’re the one lying on me—naked, I might add. What did you think? I’d be like, ‘Yeah, let’s call my mom and tell her we are married!’” he joked, and she laughed like he wanted. “I’d much rather bury myself so deep inside your tight pussy and get lost in the feel of you.”
Her face turned red as her legs fell to the sides of his hips, her wetness hot against his growing erection. He thought he had her, and slowly his fingers slid up the inside of her thigh, tracing the lips of her sweet pussy, but as he went in for the kill, she stopped him.
“We have all night.”
“No, we have to leave to catch a plane at four in the morning. I gotta get in while I can because once we get back to Nashville, we are going to be going twenty-four-seven.”
“We can sleep on the plane, and I promise, we will never be too busy for naughty time. So call your mom. I don’t want her to hate me.”
“She couldn’t hate you, not with how much I love you.”
She bit into her lip, cupping his face as she looked deep in his eyes. “Please, call your mom?”
She batted her eyes and grinned triumphantly because she knew she had him. Laughing, he pushed her off him to retrieve their phones. If all she had to do was bite her lip and bat her eyelashes at him to get him to do things, he might as well accept that she would be running things because he was a goner when she that. Finding a pair of boxers, since calling his mom naked was a little weird, he slid them up before finding his phone then hers. Turning them both on, he walked over to the bed to find that she had found a shirt.
“I’m hungry. Wanna order room service first?” she asked as she flipped through the menu.
“We can if you want, or I can take you out.”
She smiled sweetly up at him. “I’m with you that once we leave, things are gonna be nuts, so I’m all about spending all our time just with each other.”
He leaned into her, kissing her temple. “Good, me too. Now, what do you want to eat?”
As they waited for their phones to boot up, they decided on dinner, and just as Lacey went to call, Karson’s phone went crazy. Looking up from the menu, they both watched as it rang with text messages and then with voice mails. Just when he thought it was done, Lacey’s started to go off. Reaching for her phone, he watched as her brow furrowed, and he hated that she did that.
“Ignore it,” he demanded but she shook her head.
“My father called the cops on you,” she said, letting out a long breath. “They think you abducted me.”
“Seriously?” he laughed. “Are they after me?” he asked, a little worried.
“No, it hasn’t been twenty-four hours.”
“Oh, well, that’s good,” he scoffed. “They are really going to think I abducted you when you tell them we are married. They’ll probably say I drugged you too.”
