Chapter 67


    CHAPTER 58: SO WORTH IT – Pt. 1


    After our little morning romp, we cleaned up and then went downstairs to my apartment and showered.


    I don‘t know how we made it through our shower without having shower sex, but we did, and then we


    were out the door. I‘m wanting to show him where I work, and while we are there, we might as well


    have some breakfast and a nice pick–me up from the coffee shop.


    Becky‘s mouth drops the second we walk in holding hands and she realizes that it‘s me. Once the


    shock passes, excitement lights her eyes, and she gives us a huge smile. There is still a customer


    ahead of us before she can start being her nosy self. It at least gives Jace time to decide what he


    wants. He asks me what‘s good and all that, but we both know that he‘s going to order a in coffee


    with sug ar free creamer.


    It‘s finally our turn to step up to the counter, “You must be the infamous Jace.” Becky grins at him.


    Jace returns it with his sexy grin, “That depends on how wicked E has made me out to be.” He winks


    at my co worker.


    Becky turns to me and wiggles her brows, “She doesn‘t go into detail, but I can tell just how bad you


    are by the far away look she gets when she talks about you.” She giggles.


    “Oh really?” He turns turn me and raises a brow and smirks.


    Ip his arm yfully, “Stop, 1 barely talk about you.”


    “That‘s totally not true; don‘t lie to him.”


    I stare at my friend, shocked, “Seriously, Becky?”


    “What? Do you not realize that you talk about him as often as you do?” It‘s her turn to wink at Jace, and


    she‘s lucky that I can‘t reach her over the counter.


    Becky giggles once more and then takes our orders, “So, when is D–day anyway?”


    “D–day?” Jace and I ask together.


    “Yeah, you know, move in day. When are you finally moving here?”


    “Oh,” Jace chuckles, “Unfortunately, I have a month left of school, but then, I‘m all E‘s.” He wraps his


    arms around me from the back.


    “Oh yay! You two are so cute together. I, for one, am happy that E finally has a boyfriend,” she turns


    to me, “No offense, but you were always so sad–looking.”


    I chuckle, “Gee, thanks, Becky.”


    The bell rings over the door, indicating another cus tomer so we move off to the side to wait for our


    order. Jace hands me my white mocha and takes his coffee, and we go sit down at a table to eat our


    donuts we bought from the bakery. It‘s nice, having someone to do this with instead of by yourself. It


    just sucks that he has to head back homet er. It seems as though he just got here.


    “Hey, what‘s with the frown?” He asks with a frown of his own.


    I shrug, “I just wish you didn‘t have to leaveter.”


    He gives me a small smile, “Me too, baby, but it‘s only for a few more weeks, and then I‘m here for


    good.”


    “I know, but this next month is going to drag by so slow, you know that, right?”


    Chuckling, he takes my hand over the table, “I know. We will just have to video chat every chance we


    get. Before long, ‘D–day,” he quotes Becky using finger quotes, “will be here.”


    “Will you do that again?” I ask as I grin at him from across the table.


    “Do what?” He sips his coffee.


    “Air quote Becky,” A bubble ofughter bursts out, “You look so adorable doing that.”


    Grinning, he flips me off, “Be good before I put you over my knee and spank you.”


    “Don‘t threaten me with a good time, Mr. Palmer.” I wig gle my brows.


    “Jesus, I‘ve created a monster.” Pinching the bridge of his nose, he shakes his head back and forth,


    chuckling.


    “No, your monster,” | nce down, “created a nympho.” I wink and then dig into my cinnamon roll.


    Jace throws his head back andughs. I love the sound of his naturalugh. It makes me feel all warm


    and fuzzy in side for some odd reason. We both go silent as we eat our breakfast and drink our coffee,


    but we keep stealing looks at each other like we are newly dating. I guess in a way we are because


    we‘ve only been official for a little over a month and we‘ve only been on a date or two before now.


    Feeling a little frisky, I slip my shoe off and run my foot

    up and down his leg before continuing all the way up. His eyes stay locked on mine, and he grins but


    doesn‘t do a thing to stop me. I feel a twitch from inside his jeans and my mouth kicks up on one side,


    as does my brow.


    “You want to know what I find very amusing, E?” He asks as he finishes off his bear w.


    “What is that Jace?” I say his name as seductive as I can.


    “That you continue doing what you‘re doing, and you forget that we have to go back to your ce at


    some point, where there is nobody there to witness me punish that be hind.” He bites his lip and looks


    up like he‘s thinking, which apparently, he is, “Don‘t I owe you a few punishments any way?”


    It‘s my turn to bite my lip, “Yes, but it‘s okay if we don‘t have time to get to them before you have to


    leave.” I keep myself from grinning.


    “What kind of Dom would I be if I didn‘t punish my naughty girl?” His smirk tells me that he is definitely


    n ning on enjoying every bit of the punishment that I‘m going to receive.


    “You‘re right, what kind would you be if you let your sub continue to do naughty things without


    reprimand? Will it hurt?” I grin.


    “Yes, but not in the way you think, but let‘s not talk about that now. I want to enjoy this day with my


    girlfriend. Are you ready to show me around a bit?”


    “Oh yes!” | shove thest bite into my mouth and collect our trash to toss on our way out.


    “Bye Becky, see you tomorrow.”


    “See you, E. It was nice meeting you, Jace, see you in a few weeks.”


    “Yes, nice meeting you too.” Jace replies as he opens the door for me.


    Before I get both feet out the door, I run into a hard chest. Two sets of hands grab hold of me before I


    can fall, but it‘s the set that is behind me that tightens their grip and pulling me back. When I look up,


    Gabe looks apologetic un til he nces behind me, and he scowls a little.


    “I‘m sorry E, I didn‘t even see you there.” My friend looks back at me.


    “Oh, it‘s okay, I apparently wasn‘t paying attention ei ther.” I chuckle, “Here for your daily fix, I see.”


    It‘s Gabe‘s turn to chuckle, “You know me so well, E.” He nces at Jace with amusement.


    I feel Jace‘s grip tighten just a tad, then loosens right away, “We should probably get going, baby.” Jace


    presses his lips to the back of my head. When I look back and up at him, he grins, “We still have a lot


    to do before I head home.” He winks at me, and I know he‘s trying to make Gabe jeal ous, but I just let


    him have his way.


    “Yeah, okay,” | smile back and then turn back to Gabe, “I‘ll see youter, yeah?”


    “Of course, you will see me. Juste over when you‘re free.” He gives me his flirtatious smile, and


    completely ig nores Jace.


    Once we are on our way down the street, Jace takes my hand and squeezes it, “I don‘t think your friend


    likes me very much.”


    “He will get over it. Once he realizes that you are in my life to stay, he will move on. You should


    probably not try getting into a pissing contest with him, though. It will only egg him on.” I warn.


    “You‘re right. I‘ll be good from now on,” He pulls me into his arms and kisses me right in the middle of


    the sidewalk. When he pulls away, it takes me a moment to get my wits about me again, “Show me our


    new home for the next few years, E.” His smile makes my heart skip, and then we are off, as he pulls


    me down the street.
