Stepbrother With Benefits 7 (Second Season) Read online

  "Hey," I say.

  "Hi," she says, smiling at me. Her arms reach up and she wraps them around my neck, pulling herself even closer to me.

  "Sorry about that," I tell her. "It's cool, alright? We'll figure this out, and I'll go kick that prick's ass again if I have to. I'm sure my dad won't mind."

  "It was just a shock," she says. "I didn't think about Jake calling when our parents were back, and then he did, and then your dad said that, and—"

  Blah blah blah. You know how I fix things like this? Actually, I have no fucking clue, because I usually don't deal with this shit, but how I'm going to deal with it now is to kiss the fuck out of this gorgeous fucking princess I've got trapped in my arms. I press my lips against hers and grin at the startled look on her face. What, you think I won't kiss you, Ashley? I'll kiss you whenever I want, baby girl...

  She kisses me back after a second, and then I move to the bed with her, sitting us both down. She whimpers and complains for a second, mumbling at me, but I am pretty fucking sure that I could have a lot of sex with her right now if I wanted. Lock the door, ignore my dad and her mom if they come calling after us, and just spend the entire night in bed with her, with my cock buried inside her.

  I'm not going to do that, but I'm pretty sure I could, that's all.

  Meek and unbelievable, she says, "Ethan, we can't do this. Have sex, I mean. Not right now."

  "Who said anything about having sex?" I ask her.

  She gives me a look. It's that look that says she totally knows I was thinking about having sex with her.

  "Listen, Princess," I tell her, grinning. "I know what's up. You don't have to tell me. Just don't go lying to me. You'd love it if I ripped your shorts off and shoved my face between your thighs right now."

  "Well, I would like that..." she says, biting her bottom lip. Fuck, that's cute.

  "I've been thinking," I say.

  "Oh, you have?" she asks, smirking at me. "You? Ethan Colton? I didn't know you could think. Not with something besides this, at least." This being my cock, which she reaches down to squeeze through my pants.

  "Don't make this worse for yourself, Princess," I say, smirking right back at her. "What I've been thinking is I've heard a lot of good things about something you might know as anticipation, and I thought we could put it into practice starting tonight."

  "Anticipation?" she asks, giving me a silly smile. "What's that?"

  "I've got to tell Little Miss Perfect Grades the definition of anticipation?" I ask. "Holy fuck, the world's coming to an end."

  "Shut up," she says. "I know what anticipation means! I didn't think you did. Have you ever waited for anything in your entire life?"

  "Yeah," I say. "I did. I've waited for you since the second grade."

  I didn't even realize what I said until after I said it, but uh... fuck, did I just say that? Yeah, I guess I did. She stares at me, just looks into my eyes, and I feel like there's a crazy strong connection there. I've felt like this ever since we started this crazy relationship a crazy week ago, but this is even more crazy somehow.

  "Second grade?" she asks me. "Really?"

  "Yeah, I don't know. That was a dumb thing to say."

  "No!" she says, strong. "No, I liked it. It was really sweet, Ethan. If you meant it, it was."

  Did I mean it? I don't know. Fuck. This question is harder than anything I've had to answer before, and some of those questions on school tests are pretty fucking difficult. How do I pass this relationship exam? I have no idea.

  "I thought you were cool back then," I say. "I mean, I didn't love you or anything, but I thought you were cool and I liked hanging out with you."

  "You were kind of a jerk to me, though," she counters.

  "Yeah, well... I'm kind of a jerk to everyone."

  My sweetness points are being blown completely out the window right about now, aren't they? I need to Google how to be in a relationship or something, because this shit is difficult as fuck.

  "You can just tell me," she says. "I know this is weird for you, but it's weird for me, too, and you can just tell me what you think and what you're thinking. How about we make that rule number eighteen?"

  "We're still doing the rules?" I ask her with a grin.

  "Yup!" she says.

  "Alright, rule number eighteen. What is it?"

  "We have to be open with one another," she says. "It's different from rule number seven, which is the one about lying, though. This is just about telling each other how we feel, and we have to be open with one another."

  "I can do that," I say.

  "Alright, good," she says. "Do it."

  Open with each other? How do I feel right now? Uh... I don't know, hold on, give me a second to think about this.

  "First off," I say. "I want to rip off your shorts and shove my face between your thighs."

  "That's not what I meant!" she says, slapping my shoulder, playful.

  "Fuck," I say, laughing. "I thought I was good at this for a second."

  "Tell me the second grade thing!" she shrieks and tries to tickle me. Oh, you want to play that game?

  I toss her onto the bed and out of my lap, then I wrap my fingers around her waist and tickle her. She laughs and squeaks and wriggles, but I don't let her go. I don't want to ever let her go. I want to see her laughing forever. I always want to see her smile and be happy.

  I stop tickling her after she begs and pleads with me. I lay on my back on the bed next to her and take in a deep breath, sighing.

  "When I first met you I thought you were crazy," I tell her. "You were weird and you didn't make sense to me at all. You were kind of like an alien in my mind, but I was young so what the fuck do I know?"

  She snorts at me and makes a face, wrinkling her nose and pursing her lips.

  "You made me think about things I've never thought about before, though," I add. "I remember when we were swinging, and I was trying to go as high as I could, because I thought that's what you were supposed to do on swings, but you asked me why I was doing that. You said it was too much, and it wasn't as fun. I thought you were crazy, Princess, but then I slowed down, and I let myself just enjoy the ride. I let myself experience something I'd never even considered before, and it was amazing. That's how I felt about you then, and that's how I feel about you now."

  Her snort, funny face, wrinkled up nose, pursed lips... they vanish into what can only be described as a puppy dog face. It's that face that girls get when they're looking at a puppy dog that's adorable as fuck and they just want to squeeze it. Apparently I'm the puppy dog right now, because that's exactly what she does. She hops on top of me and squeezes me tight, then kisses my face.

  "You really are sweet when you want to be," she says. "Also, I love you."

  "Also?" I ask, laughing. "Yeah, yeah, I love you, too, Princess."

  "I'm going to do so many dirty things to you later, Ethan Colton," she says, giving me a seductive and sultry look. "How's that for anticipation?"

  "Whoa, changing gears there kind of fast, aren't you?"

  "Nope!" she says, shaking her head quick. "I like you when you're a bad boy, but I love you when you're sweet. It makes me want to be extra naughty and dirty..."

  I don't even know how to begin to comprehend that. She's seriously crazy. I thought she was crazy when we were in second grade, and I think she's extra crazy now, but she's my crazy, and I kind of like it. Also, you think I can pass up this gorgeous as fuck girl in my lap saying she wants to be extra naughty and dirty with me? No fucking chance in hell.

  "Go put your shoes on," I tell her. "We've got to go to dinner."

  I laugh and toss her off of me and back onto her bed. She pouts and stares after me as I head to her door, to the hallway, to my room.

  "You better not eat too much for dinner," she says just as I pass the precipice from her room to the hallway. "I've got dessert for you later."

  I shouldn't do this. I know it, I really fucking know it, and I shouldn't do it, but I turn around to mak
e some snide retort or something, except she kills me. I'm dead. Mortally wounded on this battlefield of uh... I don't know? Lust or love or relationships or something.

  Ashley lays on the bed, rubbing her crotch. She's got shorts on, but they're pretty short, especially since she's laying down and they're partly hiked up her thigh. I can see the barest inkling of her panties through the bottom of her shorts, and her slow, languorous strokes aren't helping all that much. To make matters worse, she has her hand up her shirt, squeezing one of her breasts, and her eyes are closed. She licks her lips and moans.

  Oh yeah? Two can play at that game, Princess. Don't you even fucking try to win this.

  "Hey, Mom!" I say loudly. "You didn't have to come up here. We'll be down in a second."

  Ashley panics and pulls her hand out from under her shirt and away from her shorts-covered sex in a rush to sit up and look like she was doing anything but trying to lure me into temptation. Not that she has to do anything to do that, but, you know. She's pretty good at it for a good girl. Who knew?

  I should probably mention that her mom isn't anywhere nearby. I was just being a jerk.

  When she realizes this, she glares at me. "Seriously, Ethan?" she asks, trying not to laugh. "You're a huge jerk!"

  "Seriously, Ashley?" I counter, grinning. "Tell me something I don't know."

  What, you thought that just because we were dating now I'd stop teasing her? Uh... nah, not ever going to happen. Teasing Ashley is just about my favorite thing to do in the world. Sorry, second favorite. Maybe third, now that I think about it. Cuddling and fucking are pretty amazing, to be honest.

  Heart-to-heart talks are pretty great, too. Maybe teasing her is my fourth favorite thing. I'll figure it out later.

  There's more Ethan and Ashley! Yay!

  Initially, I'd only planned on the writing and releasing the original stories. I wasn't sure how they'd be received, and I didn't want to get too far ahead of myself just in case. But... there's been an overwhelming response, so here they are again, and I hope you're enjoying their return!

  This is what I'm calling the "Second Season" of Ethan and Ashley, which I think makes sense. Like a TV show, right? Unfortunately I didn't have all of it written yet, so I can't publish them all at once, but everyone was asking for more, so I wanted to get more as soon as I could. That kind of means there's might be a little bit of a wait in between books, but I promise I'll make it as painless as possible.

  My goal is to publish a new book in this season every two weeks, which follows about how long it took me to originally write the first Stepbrother With Benefits books. I'm also aiming for six books for this season. The season will take place throughout the camping trip, and will mostly involve Ashley and Ethan's relationship evolving while they try to figure out how to tell Ethan's dad, and some other crazy things happening. It should be fun, and I've got it all plotted out, but I've just got to write it first.

  I hope you've liked this first episode of the season, and I hope you'll keep an eye out for the next one. It should be coming around the June 7th or so, and I'm really looking forward to it!

  If you did like this new beginning, I'd love if you rated and reviewed it on Amazon, too. It helps a lot and I appreciate it so much!

  Thank you for sticking around with me for all of the fun and steaminess of Ethan and Ashley's story, and I can't wait to bring you more.
