Chapter 37
Kapri's P.O.V.
Maverick and I ended up not doing anything else that night. We kissed a couple of times, but it was different. There was no heated making out, no ripping each other's clothes off, and no playfulness like usual.
We simply parted ways after a few minutes of just holding each other. Then I got in the shower. By the time I got out, I thought Maverick would have been back, but he wasn't. I hated the disappointment that followed.
And I hated how happy I was when he finally snuck into my bed even more. I couldn't even fall asleep until he snuggled up against me. Then I slept like a baby the entire night, and even woke up in Maverick's arms the next morning.
It was like we were a couple who had a fight. Like both of us were feeling uneasy after what we had said to each other. Both of us wanted to make up. Even though we had.. something still felt off to me.
Did Maverick feel the same way?
After I woke up, I went to the bathroom. Within the time that it took me to pee and brush my teeth, Maverick was gone. He stayed away all day too.
It's probably a good thing that he's giving me space. I have a hard time thinking when Maverick is around. It's always been that way. That's why I can't stand being around him. My brain just feels so muddled today. Like too much is going on up there, but also nothing at all.
I can't even go over the facts to help me sort out my mind. I'm not sure what the facts are at this point. I just can't stop replaying those last words Maverick said in my head.
I give in to you always
What did he mean by that? By always? Maverick doesn't ever give in to me, does he?
Everything that's happened between us has been because he started it. Granted, I liked it. Half the time I begged for it. Still, it was all his doing.
I don't understand what he meant, and I'm definitely looking too into it too much.
A knock on my door startled me from my thoughts. The door opened, and my heart started beating faster. Is Maverick finally home?
Mom poked her head into the room, and smiled at me. Disappointment filled my chest, annoying me. When is this going to stop? "Hey sweetie," Mom said.
"Hi Mom." I replied before turning back to my laptop.
"How are you feeling? You haven't come out of your room all day." She said.
"Oh, I'm fine. I'm just trying to do some homework and learn about my new laptop. Thank you by the way. I really appreciate it." I told her. "Appreciate what honey?" Mom asked.
"My laptop," I said.
"What do you mean?" Mom asked.
I frowned at her.
"Didn't you leave this on my bed? It was here last night, all in the package still. I assumed that you or Liam got it for me." I said.
Mom shook her head.
"It wasn't me. I doubt it was Liam, he's too busy for that." She said.
"Then... who was it?" I asked.
"Maybe Brooke left it for you as a thank you for everything." Mom said.
That doesn't sound like something Brooke would do.
"Maybe it was Maverick. You two have been getting along lately, haven't you?" Mom said.
"Y-yeah we have.." I said softly.
Did Maverick really do this?
I remember him asking me if a laptop would make that extra class easier for me, but.. I didn't think he'd go get me one. That's.. very un-Maverick-like. Why would he do that? "You gonna get ready for the recital soon?" Mom asked.
"Uh, yeah. Jas picked out my outfit and everything so that I don't embarrass her." I said with an eyeroll.
Mom laughed.
"That little girl is so particular." She said.
"Yeah she is." I laughed with her.
"Alright, well, you get ready. Liam will be meeting us there. Don't tell them. I want to surprise Jasmyn." Mom said.
Surprise her, or you just don't want to disappoint her in case he doesn't come?
"Okay," I replied.
Mom left my room. I sighed as I shut my laptop. I walked to my bathroom, and got in the shower.
If Maverick really did get me that laptop, should I say something to him? He was with me when I saw it last night. Maverick didn't say anything then.
Does he not want me to know? It's more of Maverick's style to not be sentimental. He probably didn't want to get all mushy. Does that mean I should treat it like no big deal?
Should I get him something to show my gratitude? What would I even get for someone like Maverick? He has everything he could ever need.
I sighed as I got out of the shower. Maybe I can try to talk to the girls. They might know what an appropriate gift to give back is.
I started to dry myself off, and looked at my body in the mirror. There are deep bruises on my hips. I wouldn't be surprised if Maverick's fingerprints were bruised into me. The door to my bathroom burst open, making me yelp. Maverick smirked as he walked in. For the first time, I covered myself.
Maverick's eyes roamed down my barely covered body. Concern replaced his smirk as he grabbed my hand. He yanked me to him, and his fingers grazed across the bruises. Oh no, he looks mad.
"I-it's okay Maverick. No big deal." I said softly.
"No big deal?" He scoffed out as his eyes met mine. "You have multiple bruises. Because of me."
I cupped the side of his face with one hand. Touching him feels nice. I wonder if it feels nice for him too.
"I'm okay. You apologized last night, remember? It's alright now." I said.
"But.." He trailed off.
"But nothing." I said.
"Kapri-"
"Maverick, do not start. You've been gone all day, and now we need to get ready for your sister's recital." I interrupted him.
Maverick raised a brow at me.
"What?" I asked.
"You sound upset that I was gone all day." He said.
I shrugged, and looked away.
"What do I care what you do?" I said.
Maverick gripped my chin, and brought my eyes back to his.
"If you missed me, nerd, just say that." He teased.
I stared into his honey brown eyes.
"I missed you Maverick." I blurted out.
What. The. Fu.ck.
Maverick looks as taken back as I feel. He recovered faster though. Maverick kicked my bathroom door shut, and locked it. My face flamed as he pushed me into the countertop. "Say that again. I dare you." He said lowly.
Though, it felt more like an order.
"I missed you Maverick." I rushed out.
Maverick smiled. Then he smashed his lips to mine. I kissed him back immediately. My towel was quickly forgotten.
I nibbled on Maverick's bottom lip, making him chuckle. My hands roamed to the ends of his shirt. Only to move under it to feel his abs. I moaned, and something in Maverick snapped. Maverick gripped my b**t cheeks, and lifted me onto the counter. He pulled my body to him, and he pushed into me. I moaned when I felt the bulge in his jeans.
I moved my hands to undo the button and zipper. Maverick didn't stop me. Not even when I pulled his hard co.ck out. I felt the prec.um on his tip, and used it to rub along his shaft. Maverick shivered, making me feel more bold. I let go of his co.ck to grind my hips against him. I moaned into his mouth at the feeling.
Oh wow, this is.. intense.
"Kapri.." Maverick moaned as he pulled away from me.
I started to kiss down his neck.
"You're so wet.." He said. "I might slip inside."
"Maverick.." I mumbled against his skin.
I kissed my way up to his ear.
"I want you." I whispered in his ear.
Maverick rested his hands on either side of me. His body leaned into me, and I kept moving my hips. Maverick's breathing started coming out harsher.
"You want me to what Kapri?" He asked.
"I want you inside of me." I moaned.
"Dammnit." Maverick mumbled.
"It feels so good, Maverick," I said, hoping it would make up his mind.
Is this really because I missed him? This desperation I'm feeling? Or am I just this easy to work up?
"Kapri.." Maverick said.
It sounds like he's about to tell me no. I don't want him to tell me no. I want him to give in. What can I do to make him give me what I want?
Wait, maybe...
"Please give it to me daddy. I want to be your good girl, and c.um all over you." I whispered in his ear. Maverick's body went rigid. Maybe that wasn't the right thing to say. Did I sound like a total loser?
I probably sounded so lame. I shouldn't have tried to act se.xy. I don't have it in me, and I know that. This is about to get embarrassing.
Maverick pulled back to look at me. The hunger in his eyes surprised me. Heat rushed through my body. "Turn around." He ordered.
I hopped off the sink, and spun around. I looked at Maverick through the mirror. He bent his lips down to kiss my neck while keeping his eyes on mine. Then he nibbled on my ear.
"I won't be fu.cking you tonight baby," Maverick said. "But for being so damn se.xy.. I'll give you what you want."
