Ashleigh was one of his firsts. She was the first girl he'd ever loved. The first one he'd been even remotely serious about dating. Any other girls who'd met his parents had done so because it was a small town where everyone knew everyone, not because Ed cared if she knew his family.
Ashleigh, though, he really wanted her to know them and them to know her. He wanted them to love her as much as he did. Maybe he'd done all the physical things before, but she was a first for him, a very important one.
And no matter who had been in his bed before, she'd definitely be the last girl he'd have there.
Ed's lips and hands resumed their previous path now, satisfied that she was done protesting, murmuring words of love and desire against her lips as they kissed.
