My head falls back against the headboard as I continue to twitch inside her, my tongue coming into repeated contact with hers. Eventually, Amelia lifts up her hips and slides off of me before laying her body down on top of my chest. I shuffle my body back down the bed and lay my head on one of her p

The traffic is remarkably light for a Saturday morning, and Amelia and I make it early to the church where Briella and Theo are being christened. As I pull the car into the small parking lot, I can see that my mum and Michael's cars are all here so we aren't the first ones to arrive. Climbing out of
