Anyway, weird that you don’t have any social media … or maybe better. I can’t be on it much with studying anyway.
That bike should have had brakes and I’ll never forgive my brothers for that.
Get home soon!
I took seven breaths today and still miss you,

Losing It
Delilah
“What the ever-loving fuck, Delilah Hardy?”
I winced when he used my full name in that tone but technically his dick was already all the way in. So, officially, I wasn’t a virgin anymore, even if he decided to stop now.
“Just keep going.” I wiggled, trying to adjust to the pain. I told myself I wouldn’t gasp, but I’d ended up yelping when he’d thrust in. I mean, he was huge. Dante had been about two times the size of me when he’d moved in down the street ten years ago. I’d been eight and he’d been thirteen. Now, he was twenty-three and had grown to maybe even triple my size.
I’d known his dick was going to be massive. Still, I couldn’t trust anyone with my virginity but him.
Dante might have been my older brother’s best friend and my twin sister’s partner in crime, but he’d been my hero ever since I could remember. Over the years, he’d chased down guys who stole my bike, beaten up someone who made me cry, carried me home when I hurt my ankle, and most importantly, never overlooked me.
His eyes always found mine at family gatherings when he was home on leave. I got hugs from him and little animal carvings from around the world.
When he’d texted me that he was home and had a little present for me, I knew it was the only time I’d ever have to make something happen with him. I was going off to college, still firmly holding my v-card unless I gave it to him now.
And the timing was perfect.
All my brothers were off to college, raising hell on their university campus all summer. Izzy was still gone and my parents had their annual two-week summer road trip.
I heard him breathing hard, felt the way his large hands gripped my hips to stop my wiggling beneath him. “Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.” He let out a slow string of curses, and his forehead fell to mine. It was his only movement, like he was scared to shift us at all down below. “Shit, Lilah. Why didn’t you tell me?”
“How exactly would that conversation have gone, Dante?” I opened my eyes just to narrow them at his piercing emerald ones. Jesus, he was so damn hot. That hard jawline was flexed to the point it would cut my skin if I rubbed my hand across it. I bit my lip before I continued. “‘You want to come over and take my virginity? I’m about to go to college, and every guy has avoided me since I stepped foot in high school except you. You always know just how to make me feel special. So could you just do me a favor and take that pesky v-card of mine?’”
His neck strained, and I saw his pulse point going a million times a minute. A sheen of sweat coated his tanned skin. “Would have been a great introduction to what we were doing tonight.”
“’K, well, sorry. Can you finish me off now or what?”
He shook his head over and over before he started to slide out of me, centimeter by centimeter. I squeezed my eyes shut. If he stopped now, this would be the most embarrassing experience of my life, and I’d had more than one. Most of them revolved around my four brothers picking on my twin sister and me. Dante was normally there alongside them, trying to rein in their asshole ways.
Still, this would be it. And wouldn’t this be just a great way to remember my first time? I dug my nails into his firm ass. “We’re already here, right? Can’t we just try to enjoy it instead of stopping?”
“Just try to enjoy it?” His stare widened. “I’m going to hell for the fact that I drove here to hang out with my best friend’s little sister. Instead of going home, I got seduced by her and didn’t even take my time stealing her virginity.” He proceeded to crawl off me and mumble to himself, “Should have used a condom.”
“What for? I obviously don’t have an STD and am on the pill. We went over this.” I pushed myself up onto my elbows to glare at him.
God, he’d gotten ripped while overseas. Every muscle was defined, nooks and crannies of pure heaven covered in tattoos. And the switch in his schedule had been just lucky enough for me to get him to myself instead of having my brothers fly home to see him. Military leave was only fourteen days long, so we all tried our best to be around when he came back.
This time, though, I hadn’t alerted them that Dante had stopped emailing. It was normally an indication that he would be home soon and Dante didn’t call any of us beforehand either. His arrival times were classified and, quite frankly, getting in touch with my family was like playing a game of Whack-A-Mole.
