them.
    “Panties,” he said, as he rubbed his hand between my legs.
    “No panties?” I said in a voice that was huskier than I intended, as I rubbed into his hand.
    “Fuck no, no panties,” he said, as he squeezed my ass and then kissed me hard.
    “Breakfast later?” He said breathlessly when he pulled his mouth away from me.
    “Hell yes,” I said, as Moon stood up and I wrapped my legs around his waist.
     
    An hour later we were sprawled out on my bed, completely helpless. I had never experienced sex like this with anyone. Our passion was almost uncontrollable. We had a connection that I couldn’t even describe. I know it was definitely physical, but I couldn’t deny that my emotions played a huge part in it. Whether I liked it or not.
    “You’re quiet,” Moon said, as he draped his arm across my bare stomach.
    “You wore me out,” I said. God, he felt so good next to me.  It took everything I had to fight these feelings. Keeping my guard up was wearing me down.
    “We have that effect on each other,” he said, and kissed my temple.
    I started to move away and roll out of bed.
    “Don’t,” he said, and he tightened his grip on me.
    “I need to get dressed,” I said. This was the part that got uncomfortable. Afterwards. When I wanted to fall into his arms and enjoy the high we were coming down off of. But my brain would tell me to toughen up. My heart and my head were in two different places and it was fucking with me, bad. I was torn.
    “No you don’t.” Moon said firmly. He usually just let me get up immediately. He didn’t fight me. He was different today. I wasn’t sure what to think about it.
    “You don’t get to run away from me, Sam.”
    “And you don’t get to boss me around unless we’re having sex, remember? I think we established this months ago,” I said in my typical smart ass tone. See what I mean, defensive.
    Moon sat up and propped his arm behind his head and stared into my eyes.
    “Well, maybe the rules are changing,” he said very matter of fact, and then kissed my nose. “And technically, we’re still naked and you know how I like to be in charge when you’re naked. It’s kind of a requirement.”
    He had me there. I let out a huff and lay back down.
    “Don’t be a baby,” Moon said quietly, as he snuggled against me.
    “Did you just call me a baby?” I asked, and jerked my head in his direction.
    “No,” he said with his eyes closed, looking completely peaceful. “I said don’t be a baby.” He chuckled, and kissed my cheek.
    “Fucker.” I mumbled.
    “Just did,” he said “And it was fucking awesome!”
    I couldn’t help but laugh. God, I love you. Son of a bitch!  I looked over at Moon; I almost said that shit out loud.
     
    As I was finishing up getting ready that night for Moon to pick me up, my phone rang.
    “Daddy!” I said, with my voice full of excitement when I picked up the phone.
    “Hey Angel,” he said. He sounded tired.
    “You ok?” I asked, automatically worried.
    “Yeah, just tired. It’s been a long day,” he said with a yawn.
    “You need to make sure you’re getting enough rest,” I said. I always worried about him. It had been just the two of us since I was seven years old. That was when the bitch left. I hardly even remembered her anymore. But what kind of woman-and I use that term loosely- leaves her family and never looks back? That’s really fucked up. It really bothered me for a lot of years; especially when I started getting older and my body started changing. Trying to explain to your big old roughneck daddy that you needed to go to the store for pads when you just started your period wasn’t easy. That poor man was uncomfortable for years, but he took it like a champ. Luckily, Sara, Lainey’s mom, was always willing to help me. She answered questions I was too nervous to ask and explained things to me that I would have never asked my daddy about. She was a good woman.
    “I am honey; just this job wears me out
