“You are.”
“I’m too inexperienced to be good.”
I hold her face in my hand. “Briar. You’re enthusiastic. You’re loud. You say what you want. And you’re hot.”
She giggles.
I kiss her smile. “You’re incredible,” I say against her mouth.
Her cheeks turn rosy as she beams. She kisses me.
“I have another thing I want to try,” she says.
I quirk an eyebrow at her.
“You might think it’s a little weird,” she says.
Intrigue kicks up inside of me. “Tell me.”
She takes a breath. When she does, my jaw drops.
“Well, damn.” I finally say. This woman. The way she’s equal parts sweet and filthy is gonna be the end of me.
“You wanna do it with me?” she asks in that shy, cute voice.
“Hell, yes.”
Chapter 41
Blake
Irack the barbell after my last rep on the bench press.
I sit up and brace my hands on my legs as I take a breath.
“You almost done with that?” Travis asks.
I nod and stand up, then guzzle water from my bottle.
Nick walks over to spot Travis while he knocks out a few reps.
“Hey, do you guys wanna head to the diner for some food after this?” Nick asks.
“Yeah, sounds good,” Travis says.
Leo walks by on his way to the squat rack. “Count me in.”
“How about you, Blakey boy?” Nick asks.
“Sure, but I can’t stay long. I’m meeting Briar later.”
Nick smirks. “You two were loud the other night.”
Heat climbs up my cheeks, but I try to play it off. “Consider it payback for all the times you have Poppy over and things get loud.”
Nick just laughs, totally unbothered.
“Things going okay with Briar ever since that argument with her parents?” Travis asks.
