All Chapters of Knocked Up By My Brother’s Best Friend: Chapter 111 - Chapter 118

CHRISI tookmy time Saturday morning. I woke up feeling optimistic about the future—a feeling I hadn’t experienced in years. I’d felt motivated by goals I set for work or events I planned with friends, but this optimism for the future felt like it was for me.And Sav was the cause.Leaving her apartment the night before without making love to her, without even getting off after I’d been so turned on, had been a superhuman feat.But I’d managed it. I wanted to make sure she knew I could give without taking. To know that I was more concerned for her pleasure and happiness than mine for a change.I’d done exactly what I’d told her I would while thinking about her, hot and damp against my hand, rubbing against me, coming and moaning into my mouth. I’d jacked off twice, thinking about the little details.I was amazed that she thought being a virgin would bother me.God, I could barely wait to sink inside her. But it was important to me to take her on a proper date first, to do everything r

This time Chris laughed with me. We helped Penny collect her things, and then I locked up. I said goodbye to my best friend, and she waved before climbing into her car and driving away. Chris opened my door for me, and then we were off. He drove me out of town to a restaurant called Mario’s. It was new in a town where we didn’t venture too often, farther down the lake and closer to the city. Chris held my hand for most of the drive as we talked, catching up on what happened over the last week or so we hadn’t had a chance to discuss. Suddenly, I felt silly for putting distance between us after Grampa’s hospital visit. I’d been so afraid of a repeat from four years ago that I quickly shut everything down, blaming myself for messing things up again. I didn’t give him a chance to explain, and I thought it was impossible that he would ever feel even close to the same as I did. I’d been standing in my own way. He parked in the lot and opened my door again, holding his arm out for me

“Hey,” I said, reaching out and grabbing her hand. I squeezed it, and she squeezed back. “It was an unusual set of circumstances. I mean, there was no way to predict she would be there. Or that they’d have such clumsy waiters who couldn’t even hang on to a damn plate, right?” I teased.She snorted and shook her head.“We got out of there without setting the place ablaze or committing any other crimes. I’m counting it as a win. Maybe we should even celebrate it, you think?”Her grin slowly grew. “You’re amazing, you know that?”“You are too, baby,” I said, closing the distance to kiss her again.Her gaze was soft when I pulled away, looking at me with that adoration I’d always loved seeing in her expression. I hadn’t understood what it was when we were younger, but it was clear now. I wanted to soak myself in the feeling and never let go, but we needed to get going. She needed a good mental health day, a day of nothing but fun, and I was there to give it to her.“Come on. Let’s get up

Chris cooked a fantastic meal. He made steaks with mashed potatoes and chopped broccoli. I tried to help by cleaning areas after he was done, but he insisted I sit at the island bar and relax. We sipped wine and talked about anything and everything that came to mind.I found myself enjoying simply staring at his back while he cooked and talked. I liked hearing the passion in his voice as he talked about White Oak Construction.He also mentioned that his sculptures sometimes get displayed in nearby galleries. I had no idea. I was even more impressed.We sat at the bar and ate. I couldn’t stop staring at him. I’d thought about the last time he’d touched me and how I was spending the night in his bed.I was nervous, but the anticipation was starting to wear at me.Forget the food and fuck me, please.Once we finished dinner, Chris put everything in the sink and rinsed the dishes. He stood on the other side of the bar and kept up the small talk for a while, and it seemed like he was tryin
