I feel her clench around me, and I pull back from our kiss to look into her eyes once more.

Tears well in her eyes as we both find our release, not breaking our gaze from one another.

The world could be burning down right now, and I don’t think that either of us would notice.

In this moment, there is just us.

Dani

Has anything ever felt so perfect?

I have completely fallen for Zane.

After we make love, we lay in each other’s arms. The silence around us is comforting.

I look around the room. He really went all out for this night.

“Zane?” I ask softly.

“Yeah, baby?” he asks, his voice low and rough.

“Why are we in this house? Whose house is it?” I ask him.

“It’s ours,” he states.

I still at his words. I swear that my heart stops beating for a minute.

“What do you mean, ours?” I ask slowly.

We only just told each other that we love each other. There is no way he wants to move in right away.

“I…uh… bought it for us. To live in. You know, finally get out of the clubhouse,” he says, sitting up and looking nervous.

I sit up too and feel my body shaking.

“But I love living at the clubhouse,” I whisper.

“It’s a great place to be, but we don’t ever get any alone time there,” he says.

That’s true, but I’m not ready to leave the clubhouse.

I jump up and put my dress back on. There is no way I could have this conversation naked.

“I can’t believe you did this. Why would you go and buy a house without asking me?” I hiss at him.

He stands up and puts his clothes on while looking at me with shock in his eyes. “What do you mean? We would need to move out eventually. You knew we were heading in this direction.”

“It’s too soon. I only just started to getting to know my dad. That’s why I came to the clubhouse, and now you want me to leave?” I snap at him.

“Baby, you know you can see your dad any time you want. You don’t have to live at the clubhouse for that to happen. Heck; he’s marrying your mom in a few weeks,” he says with a soft tone.

“You don’t get it. We haven’t known each other that long. This is way too soon. You only just told me you loved me. There is no way we can live together just yet,” I try to reason with him.

“We practically live together already. I don’t see what the big deal is,” he shouts.

“I can’t do this,” I say with a crack in my voice.

I run out the door and keep on running until I find myself at the clubhouse.
