He lifts a shoulder. “A little bit of work, a little bit of play. Mostly just taking a breather from life.”
I nod my head, understanding the sentiment. “Sometimes, that’s the best thing you can do,” I tell him. “And Cedar Point is a great place to escape to.”
Lifting a single eyebrow, he studies me. “Is it?”
“Definitely. Plenty of entertaining ways to spend your time.”
We watch each other for a long moment, and that’s when I catch him glancing down to my lips. It sends a surge of lust rushing through me, skittering along my skin and pooling in my stomach. That’s the only explanation I can give for the words that come tumbling out of my mouth.
“Do you want to go somewhere?”
He gives me a look I can’t quite describe, something that seems like surprise and desire and a bit of reserve all rolled into one.
“As in…”
It takes a second to realize he’s trying to confirm what I mean.
“As in…back to wherever you’re staying,” I say, worrying I’ve misread this whole thing.
He’s interested, right? I’m not confusing this, surely. It might have been a while since my last hookup, but I’m pretty sure I still know what blatant interest looks like, and this guy is showing it to me in spades.
“I’m at the resort tonight,” he tells me, his eyes locking with mine as his fingers continue to rotate that quarter. “You wanna head there with me?”
Then he bites on his lower lip again, and it makes me want to yank him across this table to bite down on it myself.
“Definitely. If that’s what you wanna do.”
Finally, that smile of his makes a reappearance, and he takes a step closer to me, coming to the side of the table and slipping a hand down the length of my arm, a rush of goose bumps flooding in its wake.
“I can’t imagine anything else I’d rather do with my night,” he tells me.
And then he slips his fingers into mine and gives me a tug, leading me through the room and out of the bar.
The near-freezing air of nighttime in Cedar Point hits my face with a smack, but then I’m tucked in close next to a warm body as the two of us begin the short walk out to the parking lot.
I like the way my hand feels in his, encased in warmth and skin that’s just slightly rough. I like the way he weaves us through the cars, glancing down at me once or twice with a look that sends nervous excitement skittering through me.
And I really like the way he turns me so my back is pressed against a fancy black SUV, his body coming in flush against mine.
“I’ve been wanting to do this since the second I saw you.”
Then his lips are pressed against mine, our mouths opening and his tongue dipping in with that same confidence and surety that had me practically panting earlier.
God, this is a fucking kiss. A hot kiss filled with lust and desire and a hint of greed.
His body is thick and warm and muscular in all the right places, my hands roving and touching just about anything I feel brave enough to reach for.
He doesn’t handle me with kid gloves, either, his hands dropping down along my waist and then back to grip my ass, before one hand firmly grips my thigh, tilting me just slightly so he’s pressed up against me right…there.
I moan, somewhere deep in my soul, feeling the kind of devastating attraction I’ve only read about in books or heard about from my friends. I feel like a magnet, and he’s my other half. I am powerless to want anything other than to be closer to him.
Which is why my mouth follows his when he pulls back, my brain in a lusty fog, unable to understand why the good stuff has suddenly stopped.
“Let’s get going—otherwise I’m in danger of doing something indecent,” he says, shifting us both to the side and opening the car door.
As he takes my hand to help me climb into the passenger seat, I smirk at him. “I’m hoping a lot of indecent things happen tonight.”
The side of his mouth tips up. “You’re a lot of trouble, aren’t you?” he asks.
