You’re gonna give me a big head talking like that.”“Reese’s, you’ve got everything a man needs. Plus, you make your own money.

It’s been so hard to keep it inside.”Joyful tears filled my eyes. “Oh, Deandre! I love you too!”He kissed me with so much emotion that my whole body trembled. Minutes later, we were in his king-sized bed and I did something between the sheets that shocked us both...
