I want my birthday present.
29
James stepped out of the shower and towelled himself dry. He’d skipped out of Estelle’s surprise birthday dinner early after Summer’s attention and Henry’s glares had become too much, then gone home and punished himself in the gym.
Assessing his body in the mirror, he frowned. Since returning from China, he’d regained some of his lost muscle, but he wasn’t in the shape he was the night before he left. The night he’d spent with Estelle.
As if acknowledging the memory, his dick twitched.
Ignoring it, he wrapped the towel around his waist and exited the bathroom. Summer Foxbrooke may have flirted with him, but he knew it was an act. For whose benefit, though? Summer had kept glancing over to the table where Estelle was to see if any of them were looking her way. Was she trying to piss her sister off? Make Finn, the beardy grump, jealous?
Going to the window, James stared out at the darkening sky. An owl hooted somewhere in the distance.
I’m going to miss this.
Huh?
The peace and quiet. It’s not as bad as I thought.
You’re joking, right?
I don’t know anymore. I—
What was that?
There was a noise outside his window.
Bird? Squirrel?
The rustling was getting louder. James pulled the sash up and leaned out.
What the—
‘Er, hello,’ Estelle said from her position on the trellis.
James tried to process the sight of her dressed in her pyjamas, halfway up the side of the wall. ‘What are you doing?’
‘Sleep-climbing?’
He blinked. ‘I don’t think it was built to support a person. Go back down before it fails.’
‘Bollocks to that, I’m nearly there.’ She hauled herself higher, and James held out his hand to help her through the window.
Inside his bedroom, she pulled off her boots then went towards the bathroom. ‘I’m just going to wash my hands.’
‘You seem to know your way around.’
‘Of course I do,’ she called out over the sound of running water. ‘I practically lived here when you were away.’ He heard the taps shut off, then she came back into the room, wiping her hands on her pyjamas. ‘And, in the interests of full disclosure, I once gave myself multiple orgasms whilst lying on your bed.’
His cock swelled.
‘Although I had to close my eyes. All this chintz reminds me of Gram-Gram.’
‘I didn’t choose it.’
‘Didn’t think you did.’ She faced him. Her breathing was fast, pushing her hardened nipples against the fabric of her top with every inhale. ‘I want my present now, please.’
He stepped away.
