Cash (7 page)

“I
know,” said Katy. “But he has a few things to work out first.”

“Like
what?”

The
last thing she wanted to tell her brother was that she and Cash hadn’t
consummated their relationship yet.

“He’s
still has a few issues about his accident he’s dealing with.”

“Hey,
that’s perfectly understandable.”

“Speech,
speech, speech,” shouted everyone.

Katy
walked back to join Cash as Connor got up on the stage next to their parents,
Betty, and also Jennifer.

“I
want to thank every one of you for making this dream of mine become a reality.
Without each and every one here today, well, it wouldn’t have been possible.”

Cash
whistled and Katy cheered.

“First
of all, I need to thank my campaign manager who also happens to be my aunt,
Betty.”

Betty
waved to everyone.

“She
has worked almost 24/7 since the day I told my family I wanted to be Big Sky
County’s next sheriff. On the plus side she’s snagged herself a man who she met
on the campaign trail.”

Connor
pointed to
Branndon
who lifted his cowboy hat and
waved it in the air.

“Next my parents for putting up with me
all these years.
As many of you know my dad was diagnosed with cancer this past summer but I’m
glad to say he’s doing fine.”

Katy
whistled her dad as everyone clapped.

“And
as many of you also know I got married to the most beautiful woman in
Grantsville. My new wife Jennifer who I love more than I could ever have
imagined you could love someone. And who’s carrying our son, Jon
Nolan-Delaney.”

Damn,
she was hoping
she’d call her son Jon after their great, great, great, great grandpa if he was
indeed their bloodline.

“Oh
and I can’t forget my sister Katy who put up my campaign signs in her sex shop
and found a way to get me votes with her customers. Come on up here Katy and
bring that handsome guy of yours with you.”

Katy
pulled on Cash’s hand and the two of them walked up to the stage.

“Some
of you might already know Cash Doyle who, like us, has a longstanding family
history with this community.”

Katy
and Cash waved.

“In
fact, I’d like to announce that Cash will be working with my office once it’s
set up and running.”

Katy
looked at Cash and shrugged her shoulders.

“In
fact, let’s honor this young man for serving his country and for those of you
who don’t know he lost his leg fighting for us.”

Connor
meant well but now she felt bad that she’d told her brother about Cash’s leg.

She
turned to look at Cash. He was blushing. He didn’t say anything but then left
the stage so quickly that he missed the step and went down on the floor.

“Shit,”
Cash said.

Katy
rushed to him. He’d hit his head on the corner of a table and blood was
streaming down his face.

“Someone
call
an ambulance,” said Katy.

“No,
really it’s okay,” said Cash.

Connor
and Betty rushed over to him as well.

“Let’s
get you up a chair and get something for your head,” said Betty.

Branndon
and Connor
helped him up.

Betty
wiped his head. “I think you need to get some sutures honey.
Branndon
you want to help Katy and me get Cash to the ER?”

“Sure
thing,” said
Branndon
. “I’ll bring the truck around.”

“Connor,
why did you tell everyone about Cash? He was adamant he didn’t want people
feeling sorry for him?” asked Katy.

“They
won’t. He’s a local hero,” said Connor.

“And
why didn’t you ask my permission to call your son Jon?
 
Didn’t you think that maybe I’d like to name
my child that too?”

“What’s
gotten into you all of a sudden?
Seems since you and Cash
came back from Vegas you’ve been uptight and snappy.”

He
was right. Normally they got on so well.

“You and Cash not getting enough sex or
something?

Katy
took a deep breath. Maybe that was it. She needed a good fuck and there wasn’t
any chance of get one soon.

“Okay,
truck’s ready and waiting,” said
Branndon
.

“We’ll
talk tomorrow and congratulations again big brother,” she said.

They
hugged and then she helped
Branndon
and Betty walk
Cash to the truck.

God, Cash must
really hate my family by now.

Chapter Seven

Cash
thought after all he went through breaking his arms, losing his leg, and the
burns, that getting a few sutures would be piece of cake, but he was pretty
sure he whimpered
 
while the ER doctor
patched him up. He’d kindly let Katy stay with him and like a mother with her
child, she’d held his hand throughout the whole thing.

“And
you’re up to date with your tetanus shots?” asked the doctor as he cleared away
the sutures.

“Definitely
up to date,” said Cash.

“I’ll
write you a prescription for some antibiotics. Is there anyone who can keep an
eye on you tonight because…”

“I
can,” said Katy, clearing jumping in there before knowing why she had to be
with him.

She
was almost too good to be true.

“He
might have a concussion so try and keep him awake as much as possible.”

“I
can do that,” said Katy.

“Great
and whenever you’d like you can go home,” said the doctor shaking Cash’s hand.

“You
want me to go get you a wheelchair?” asked Katy.

“No, absolutely not.
I’ll have to
take Betty and
Branndon
out for a meal to thank them
for the ride and sticking around for as long as they did.”

“We
could double date with them.”

“Yeah as long as I don’t have to hear
about the rodeo.”

****

Katy
hadn’t played Monopoly since she and Connor were kids and the Nolan-
Delaneys
had family game night every Monday without fail.
It brought back memories long forgotten. What great parents they had. What a
wonderful big brother Connor had been. And yes, she felt even worse remembering
how she’d snapped at him earlier that evening. Or should that be yesterday. It
had been Connor’s big night and she’d snapped at him for trying to help her
boyfriend land a great job in the county sheriff’s office.

Katy
looked across the table. Cash was clearly ready to doze off because his eyelids
were fluttering. She was here to stop that from happening.

“That’s
$500 you owe me,” she said.

“What?”
he asked, his head snapping up so quickly she even heard it pop.

“You
landed on my property,” said Katy.

“You
kick ass at this game.”

“Got lots of practice while I was
growing up.
Family game night.
Don’t you miss how things used to
be when you were young?
Simpler times with all the worry and strife
of life down to your parents.
Biggest worry was a zit on your chin.”

“Not
me,” said Cash, stretching his arms into the air.

“You
haven’t really gone into lots of detail about your family. I’d like to hear
about them.”

That
should keep him awake.

“Believe
me Katy, you do not. They’re nothing like your tight-knit one.”

“Your
dad was a rancher too, right?”

“Yeah,
and ran the family like the army.”

Cash
stood and walked toward the window. It was pitch-black outside by still he
stood looking out at nothing. Katy got up and walked behind him and wrapped her
arms around him.

“You
see a lot of him?”

“No,
and in all honesty that’s the way I like it,” said Cash. He put his hands on
hers. “You don’t know how lucky you are to have parents like you do.”

He
was right.

“They’re
good people,” said Cash.

He
turned around and kissed her. He held her tight.

Katy
unzipped his pants. What she had in mind would keep him awake and she didn’t
care what he looked like, she was going to get him naked.

“Katy,”
whispered Cash. “I thought we’d been through this in Vegas.”

“I
don’t care what you look like. It’s what’s inside you that
counts,
and I think the man that’s inside this skin is pretty fantastic.”

“I
won’t be able to deal with it if you scream or are repulsed or…”

She
put her finger on his lips before walking over to the bed. She sat and
carefully pulled down his sweats. The tops of his thighs had puckered pink
skin. She touched it hoping she didn’t hurt him or make him feel self-conscious
in any way. His erection strained against boxers. He was going to be beautiful.
She knew it.

Katy
gently eased his boxers down his thighs, seeing the puckered skin continue all
the way to his genitals and lower belly.
Poor Cash.
The pain he must have been in had to have been sickening.

“You
don’t have to look,” said Cash.

“I
want to. I also want to touch you.”

Katy
ran her hands over his thighs; his balls and cock that now pulsed against her
fingers.

“I
need you to fuck me Cash. I can’t stand being around you like this and us not
making love. I want you inside me.”

“Katy…”

She
wasn’t taking no for an answer from him ever again.

Katy
took off her jeans, panties and then slipped off her sweater and bra. She
scooted back on Cash’s bed and opened her legs for him.

“Come
and get me.”

****

Cash
touched Katy’s breasts, feeling and savoring every inch of them.
Soft, big, heavy, and downright gorgeous.
He moved his hands
over her nipples.
Dusty pink and turning hard as he rolled
and pulled them.
 
The thought of
pushing his cock inside her almost made him come. What would that be like after
all this time? Maybe waiting had been a good thing.

Next
Cash focused on Katy’s belly.
Her soft skin and those curvy
hips.
Venturing lower he stroked her thick dark curls. He pushed his
fingers through them. Cash nudged her thighs apart just a little more. She was
aroused. Pink pussy lips with juices that clung to her folds. He touched her
clit. She drew in her breath and wiggled her body as he circled the nub making
it hard. It even had a tiny pulse. He teased it some more hearing her groan as
she obviously got closer to her orgasm. When she did it would be music to his
ears.

Neither
of them spoke as he toyed with her opening, pretending to push his finger
inside her but pulling out just before he did. He hoped she didn’t mind him
teasing her. She was hot, tight and moist. He finger fucked her, feeling her cream
pass over his hand each time he ventured inside her. He was starting to get
cramp in his leg but he wasn’t going to stop pleasuring her now. He’d put up
with the discomfort and deal with the consequences later.

“Cash,
don’t stop,” said Katy pushing her thighs upward. She closed her eyes and he
watched as made fists with her hands and then another gush of her juices washed
over his knuckles as she cried out.

He
wanted to hold her, kiss her, lick her, spoil her, but his leg was killing him.

“I
have to take a rest but I’m not giving in,” Cash told her.

“Sure,
anything you need to do, we’ll do,” said Katy.

Cash
scooted off the bed and dragged the chair toward him and swung himself over and
sat on it. Katy edged to the side of the bed, her legs and feet dangling. He
reached out and stroked her thigh.

She
had the softest skin he’d ever touched. Katy leaned over and kissed him,
quickly easing her body onto his. She straddled him as they cuddled.

“I’m
not hurting you
am
I?” she asked him. “I know I’m not the
lightest of women.”

“No…I
mean you’re not hurting me and I love these curves of yours. They give me a
hard-on just thinking about them.”

Cash
ran his hands over her hips. She reached down between their bodies and stroked
his cock. The wait was getting unbearable.

“I
have some condoms in the drawer over there. You want to go get one?” asked
Cash.

“Sure.”

Katy
got up and walked over to his bedside table and leaned over. Cash had to
control himself. Her pussy was on full display and he so wanted to finally
introduce his cock to it.

“Katy,”
he asked.

“Yes.”

“You
might try staying in that position and letting me take you from behind. I’d
prefer that our first time was like that and I promise I’ll make it up to you.”

“I
don’t mind at all.”

Cash
got up and walked over to her. He massaged her butt cheeks and then made sure
she was still wet and ready by pushing his finger between them so he could feel
her pussy. She ripped open the condom and handed it to him. He slipped it on.
He hadn’t worn one of these in forever.

Slowly
he pushed his dick inside of Katy and almost cried. It was better than he’d
imagined. Shit, she was tight. Her pussy grabbed him, teased him almost. This
was it. They were finally going to have sex. Cash moved his hips, thrusting gently
inside her. He wished he could have waited and done things the way women
usually liked it, missionary style. A little bit more romantic with them facing
one another and looking into each other’s eyes. Cash slid his arm around the
side of Katy’s body, pushed his hand between her legs and quickly found her
clit.

“You
don’t have to do that,” said Katy.

“Yes,
I do,” he whispered in her ear.

He
circled her clit while thrusting deep within her. Who would come first?
Probably he would because he was already feeling a stirring in his crotch and
balls. Cash worked her clit some more, loving the little gasps escaping from
her mouth.

“Cash, fuck me harder.”

He
certainly could. He hoped he didn’t lose his balance as he smacked his body
against her butt.

Close,
closer, closer
to paradise and then wow, an explosion of lights but not like the ones that had
taken his leg and burned his body.

This
was the good kind.

He
tried to hold his hand steady so he could make her come. She wiggled her hips
and then tilted her head back and groaned. Cash clung onto her, his dick still
buried deep inside her. He nuzzled her back. It had been pretty wonderful.

“Now
I’m feeling tired and relaxed and happy,” said Katy. “How am I going to stay
awake so I make sure you don’t fall asleep?”

“You
could always read to me.”

They
got on the bed together, snuggling in one another’s arms.

“I’m
sorry that wasn’t that great for you,” said Cash.

“Oh,
it was perfect. I mean as a start to what I know is going to be some off the
charts sex.”

“Yeah,
it’s just the beginning.”

“Hey,
I forget to ask you, you want to come to Thanksgiving with my folks?”

“I’d
love to but my uncle and aunt already asked me and I accepted.”

“Should have asked you sooner.
How about you
stop by for pie?”

“Homemade pumpkin pie?”

“Of course and lots of whipped cream.”

“I
love whipped cream especially when it’s spread over a sexy body like yours.”

****

It
had been Katy’s first attempt at making a pumpkin pie without her mother’s
help. She wanted to impress Cash when he stopped by. She didn’t want him
falling in love with her mother’s
cooking
and then
thinking her culinary skills paled in comparison. The way to a man’s heart was
through his stomach?
Cash’s heart.
She certainly
wanted to win that.

She
helped set the table while Connor,
Branndon
, and her
dad watched the football game in the family room. It was snowing hard outside
and already the holiday feel was setting in.

“How
about doing some Black Friday shopping in Missoula tomorrow?” Jennifer asked
her. “I want to start buying stuff for the baby’s nursery.”

“I’d
love to but the store’s running its own sale tomorrow. Three Christmas condoms
for $1, chocolate body paint 50% off. Whips and handcuffs, buy one get one
free.
If any of that interests you.”

Jennifer
laughed. “I might stock up ready for after the baby’s born. Speaking of which…”

She
stopped moving and touched her belly. “You want to feel your nephew?”

She
took Katy’s hand and placed it on the side of her bump. Sure enough Jon
Nolan-Delaney was moving around in there.

“It’s
such a strange but yet wonderful feeling,” said Jennifer.

Katy
imagined what it would feel like to have Cash’s baby growing and moving around
inside her.

“So
how are things going with Cash?” asked Jennifer as she put the stuffing in a
casserole
dish.
