Then she would tell him about the pregnancy, and that she loved him. She had made up her mind about things while sitting in her room trying to figure out what she needed to do. And Diane knew she couldn’t sit back and do anything to her father’s approval anymore, not when it made her unhappy.
She wanted Gregory, and she wanted to be a family with him. If it meant her father would cut her off, then she would have to accept it. It would hurt, but she would be able to get through it.
Hopefully, they would be able to reconcile. But Diane would rather that happen, than she followed what Gilbert wanted and marry a man she hated, which would have her resent both Gilbert and Brent. That was not fair to her.
He would have to realize that soon. James Gilbert was stubborn, but he wasn’t stupid. He would have to swallow his pride soon.
Diane felt exhausted. Just thinking about all of this was hurting. Heading into Gregory’s bedroom, she undressed down to her panties, slipped on one of Gregory’s t-shirts, and then got into bed. God, it felt so comfortable here.
Diane had dozed in it with the afterglow of sex, but she had never properly fallen asleep in it. She had never had overnights at Gregory’s home.
Maybe she could change that. Given the tension in the house, Diane doubted that she would be able to be under the same roof as her father for a while. The bed was really nice, and the duvet was so soft.
Diane pulled the duvet around her, snuggling down and letting sleep claim her. She didn’t know when Gregory came back, but she could envelop herself with his smell, and imagine his arms around her.
She could only hope that he accepted her apology for treating him badly.
Diane had no idea how long she had been asleep – she didn’t realize that she had slipped into slumber – but when she awoke, it was dark in the room. The moon was shining through the open curtained window, the view of the lake looking very ethereal.
And someone was cuddling her from behind.
Diane didn’t even need to look behind to know that Gregory was there. She recognized his strong arm around her waist, the firm chest she was pressed against. His cock nestled against her backside. He seemed to realize that she was awake because his hand now cupped her breast and he shuffled closer, pressing a kiss to her shoulder.
“Sorry. I didn’t mean to wake you.”
“How long have you been back?”
“Probably about five minutes.”
“What time is it?”
“Eight-thirty.”
She had been asleep for almost three hours. Diane hadn’t slept that deeply in a while. She smiled as Gregory caressed her body.
“I hope you don’t mind me sneaking in when you weren’t here. I just had to get away.”
“I don’t mind at all. I like the idea of coming home to find a hot woman in my bed.” Gregory rolled her onto her back. “I’ve got things to talk to you about, but I need to do something first.”
“What?”
Gregory didn’t answer. He simply kissed her. At least he wasn’t upset with her over how she turned him down.
Diane’s hands explored his bare chest, spreading her fingers over the soft, warm skin. His hands slid under the t-shirt she wore, seeming to want to touch everywhere that he could. He was rolling onto he was on top of her, nudging her thighs apart and rubbing his cock against her through the fabric of her panties.
Diane had thought that her libido was high when she was around Gregory, but it felt like things were different. More intense. Pregnancy hormones, maybe? Or maybe that was just because she was around Gregory, and he just made her feel like she was on fire whenever he simply looked at her.
It didn’t take much for Gregory to strip her clothes away, tossing them across the room before the duvet was kicked into the floor. Diane gasped as he rolled them quickly, leaving her draped across his chest and straddling his waist. His cock nudged against her, and Diane rolled her hips.
“Diane…,” Gregory broke the kiss with a groan, his hands going to her hips, “God, you’re gorgeous.”
That felt empowering. Diane shifted back, moaning as he slid inside her. Even after their multiple lovemaking sessions, she still had to wait for her body to adjust to his size.
She rocked on his cock, allowing Gregory to guide her as she leaned her hands on his chest. The sensations still rippled through her, and Diane was aware of her moans getting louder. Gregory was vocally showing his appreciation as well, his hips coming off the bed to meet her.
When her orgasm started building, it felt stronger than Diane was used to. It built and built, and then it was lodged in her chest, close to exploding. The moment it did was when Gregory reached between them and touched her swollen nub.
Diane gasped and clutched onto Gregory, sure that the room was tilting as her orgasm crashed into her in waves. It was incredible, and Diane wasn’t sure whether to beg for it to stop or demand that it kept going.
Gregory’s hands tightened on her hips, and a moment later he was coming as well. When the waves passed, things were feeling a little wobbly, and Diane slumped over Gregory. His hands cupped her backside before running over her back as he kissed her lazily.
“I love you, Diane.”
It took a moment for Diane to realize what he had said. She shifted up onto her elbows to stare at him.
“Are you serious?”
“I’ve said it to you before, haven’t I?”
“I…I don’t know. I’m sure I would have remembered it.”
Gregory smiled.
“Well, I’m saying it now. I love you. And I do want to marry you. That’s not changing.”
“But I don’t think we’d be able to get married. Not if Father is against it, and I…”
“Your father and I have talked.”
Diane stared.
“You what? You actually talked to him?”
