《Even Better Together》chapter fifteen
Advertisement
Hunter left an hour ago and I'm just washing my face before I get into bed. The dinner and flowers were a nice gesture, and him needing to see me was sweet, but I get the feeling I'm missing something.
He had kissed me with such urgency and hugged me so tight to the point he was squashing me. We had a relaxing evening really, I had a couple glasses of wine with my dinner, while Hunter stuck to water since he was driving.
At 11pm he said he had to go, so I walked him out, slightly disappointed he didn't want to stay the night really.
〰️〰️〰️
One week later ...
Hunter: Busy with work this weekend, I'll see you next week, sorry x
Me: Okay, give me call when you can
Hunter: Will do baby
Another Friday night comes around and we are having our girls night in tonight as Ivy has plans with Lucas' family tomorrow night.
"So you haven't had any more dates this week?" Ivy asks me, wanting to know the latest on my dating life.
"Nope, he's busy with work." I shrug.
"Well, he is definitely into you, I'm sure he would see you if he could." Ivy tells me.
My phone pings a few times while Ivy speaks, I reach over and look down at my screen.
A smile makes it's way onto my face, my heart racing at the idea of being wrapped in Hunter's arms again, we haven't had sex since he stayed over at my apartment a couple of weeks ago now. Blushing, I reply and place my phone down and rejoin the girls chat, letting know I'll be seeing Hunter this weekend after all.
〰️〰️〰️
It's nearly 7pm and I'm waiting for Hunter to come pick me up, I've packed some fresh clothes for tomorrow and some essential toiletries. I'm wearing a nice underwear set, I want to be intimate with Hunter again, and I'm hoping that he will too.
Hunter: I'm here x
I collect my things, head out the door and lock the apartment. Sitting in Hunter's car, he immediately leans over to kiss me.
"Hey Soph, you look beautiful."
I only have a slip dress on, as the weather has been gorgeous out today. I did bring a denim jacket with me just incase.
Hunter drives back to his penthouse with his hand on my thigh the entire time, I can feel the heat radiating off his palm, my stomach does a tiny flip, smiling to myself. I look over at Hunter, his hair pushed back on the top of his head, looks like he's pulled his fingers through it most of the day, he has a white shirt on rolled up at the sleeves, his sexy tattoos on display, grey check trousers clinging to his thick thighs, I squeeze my legs shut at the thought of how attractive this man is, and he wants me, how crazy is that!
We arrive at the penthouse, Hunter takes my hand in his, the doorman is standing in the lobby, it's the first time I've seen him since my 'walk of shame'. How embarassing!
"Hey Eric, nice to see you, this is Sophia my gir- uh- my..."
"Hi, nice to meet you." I smile at the older gentleman, helping Hunter out by cutting in.
"Hello dear, nice to see you again, she is a very beautiful lady Mr Hunter." Eric says, walking us to the lift.

"You'll be seeing more of her around her Eric, add her to my list please when you have a minute."
"Of course Mr Hunter, have a wonderful evening." He waves us off as the doors close.
"When did you see Eric?" Hunter asks as we ride up to the 12th floor.
"Oh, uh- I, funny story, he called me a taxi when I left your apartment that first night." I say grimacing.
"Oh great, so he knew you had left and didn't think to tell me!" Hunter laughs.
"Maybe he just didn't wanna get involved in your love life." I shrug.
"Yeah, well, I'll be having words with him now."
"It's cute he calls you Mr Hunter." We step out of the lift and enter the penthouse.
"He's done it for years now, I don't even realise."
"What list am I getting put on?"
"Oh, just a list of people that Eric can grant access to my place, only my parents and my best friends are on it. And you now." He smiles down at me, hugging me into his side.
Wow, was that our first big step, him putting me onto his contact list for his penthouse. It's not like I'm just going to turn up at his place while he's not here randomly, but it's to know he is involving me in the little things of his life.
After taking my bags through to his room, we enter the kitchen where I notice the table is all set, candles awaiting to be lit, wine chilling in an ice bucket and fresh flowers on the side in a clear glass vase.
I turn to Hunter with wide eyes.
"What's all this for?"
"Well, I wanted to make up for not seeing you all week, the club has taken up most of my time and I've missed you." He explains, wrapping his arms around my waist.
"I cooked for you, I hope that's okay?"
"Yeah, that's great."
"It's just chicken in a creamy white wine sauce with vegetables and I also have a dessert."
This man continues to surprise me. This is so thoughtful of him, he makes me smile constantly.
As we eat our delicious dinner that Hunter cooked for us, we chat about what has been happening all week, Hunter is a little stressed I think with the club new hires, but he seems to be less distracted now.
I tell him about my days which have been just the norm for me, although we do have some new people that were hired at the sports centre, personal trainers, they are actually all heading out tonight to a bar, I declined after Hunter invited me over.
"Thank you for cooking, it was amazing." I tell him, wiping my mouth on a napkin then reaching for my wine glass.
"So, how come your free tonight?"
"Well, I wasn't really, but I've been at the club more in the day, so I didn't wanna be there all night too. Also, I was a dick with the whole Lucas mix up thing, and you gave me a chance for us to date again, I'm not gonna let my work mess that up for us." He tells me.
"So I finished what I needed to, came home to start setting this up for you, and hoped you would wanna still see me." He reaches for my hand across the table, I smile at him, his handsome green eyes glistening at me.

"Thank you Hunter. I can't lie, I was disappointed that we couldn't see each other much this week, but I get it, your a club owner, I'm sure it takes a lot of your time." I share my feelings with him, something that I don't really do, not even with my friends.
"But I'm not going to anymore baby, not now I have you in my life." He stands up, to come a place a kiss on my lips.
"Let me grab the dessert."
Taking bite after bite of this amazing dessert, I decide, Hunter can do this every night for us.
"Hunter this is-" I moan putting the spoon in my mouth again. "Why haven't you cooked before now? We kept going out or having takeaways." I laugh, he is an incredible cook, just another thing that makes him a great man.
"My mum and gran taught me, and I've learnt a few things living alone for years."
I nod, smiling at him while I'm devouring the content of my bowl. Hunter made a chocolate melting cake, with toffee sauce, decorated with raspberries, coated in a light dusting of cacao powder.
"Soph, you gotta stop moaning like that, I'm trying to be a gentleman here." Hunter groans, knowing full well what he means.
I smile, catching my bottom lip between my teeth, I hear Hunter curse under his breath, as he stands up to clear the table. I don't miss the bulge in his trousers as he walks away to the counter.
I slide up out of my seat and walk behind him, he freezes once my small hands wrap around his torso as I slide my palm down his abs, even through his shirt I can feel his defined body.
"Mm- baby, what are you-"
"Shh." I whisper, my hand getting lower until it reaches his belt.
Hunter suddenly grips my hand and spins around, his eyes a dark shade of green now.
"You don't wanna do that baby." He whispers in my ear, shivers running up and down my spine.
"Do what?" I flirt, moving my free down down his abs, to his belt then dropping further so my hand is touching his crotch. His breathe hitches at my contact, his hands coming to my ass, walking me back as I reach the counter.
His mouth crashes down on mine, his hands wildly gripping my body, I wrap my arms around his neck, deepening the kiss. Our tongues collide, a warm feeling flutters in my stomach before I pull away breathless.
Hunter stands watching me, taking his shirt buttons between his fingers and pulls it off his body. My heart is racing, I can feel my pulse pounding, this man does things to my body that I can't even explain.
In one clean sweep I pull my satin slip dress over my head and let it fall to the ground.
"Fucking hell Soph." Hunter groans, trying to undo his belt, but struggling as his eyes trail over my body.
"That is so sexy baby." He comments on my underwear choice, a mesh black strappy bra which puts my nipples on full display and a strappy black thong, one strap on my hipbone while the other pulled high up on my waist.
Hunter wastes no time in taking me into his bedroom, our bodies feeling each other, kissing everywhere we can.
"I want you Sophia." He looks me straight in the eye. "I-I want to feel you." He moans.
Pulling down his boxers in one go, his cock springs out, he is definitely ready for me, he unclips my bra, taking my nipples in his mouth one at a time.
We make it to his bed, laying over me his hand trails down my stomach, his fingers removing my panties. Using his middle finger he strokes my clit, I arch my back in pleasure of his handsome man touching me, moaning loudly as the wave of an orgasm hits me.
"Yes Hunter, yes!" I shout.
Hunter groans sexily in my ear, that sends my orgasm exploding through me. He fists his cock, sliding it up and down, I lean on my elbows to watch the view, I can't help but admire the man infront of me.
〰️〰️〰️
After having sex twice and multiple orgasms later, we are cuddled up in bed, Hunter playing with the ends of my wet hair. We just had our first shower together, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint.
"Hey, about what I said earlier in the lobby-"
I chuckle cutting him off, I know what he is going to say, he didn't mean for it to come out.
"So, about that, I would love if you were mine Sophia."
Wait, what? He did mean to nearly call me his girlfriend?
I freeze, I wasn't expecting this. I don't know why I'm panicking, I really like Hunter, we enjoy being around each other, he is thoughtful and caring and not to mention the mind blowing sex we have. I never thought I would meet someone and have this spark with, and so quickly too.
"Uh- I- I" I'm stuttering, fuck, I don't know how to say this.
Hunter sits up, which makes me rise up too. I don't look at him which makes him sigh.
"If you don't want that with me it's okay, I just- Fuck, I really like you Sophia, I care about you and I really would love it if you were my girl." He caresses my back, as I'm deep in thought.
I am ready, I don't wanna lose him, just because I haven't had a boyfriend in a really long time doesn't mean I'll be a shitty girlfriend. I take a deep breath.
"Okay." I smile with an exhale.
"Wha- okay?" Hunter asks, clearly shocked that I agreed, after the last minute I've been silent.
"Yeah, I just haven't been a girlfriend in a long time, so I was just getting in my head about it." I explain.
"So your my girl?" Hunter grins, his smile reaches his ears. He's so happy.
"Yes, boyfriend." I chuckle winking at him.
"Fuck, say that again." Hunter kisses my lips.
"Boyfriend." I whisper, his lips on mine in an instant.
"You've made me so happy Soph, we can do this together alright, me and you." His eyes flicking between mine.
"Me and you."
