The two vertical dips in her stomach on both sides of her belly button glimmer, covered in drops of water, and the sight of her skin makes my cock fill with blood.
She wore that. She purposely put it on, which means she was considering going up there. I raise my eyes from her body and stare at her, taking a step forward.
Mine.
She backs up a step.
I move again. And so does she.
“It was an accident,” she snaps, her eyebrows pinched in a scowl. “She was just playing around. I don’t need any crap about something that wasn’t my fau—”
I rush up to her and wrap my arm around her waist, taking her face in my hand and pul
ling her mouth to mine.
She whimpers, surprised, and I don’t care who sees us at the moment. Without breaking the kiss, I walk her backward, into the hallway, and around the corner.
She tears her mouth away. “What are you doing?”
But God, I’m so hungry. I dive for her lips again, tasting her tongue and threading my hand through her soft hair.
“No.” She pulls away from me.
I drop my arms, my heart pounding and my fingers still buzzing with the feel of her skin.
“I’m not going to fight with you,” I tell her, breathing hard, “and I’m not going to ask you to come home. I just want to say I’m sorry.”
She lifts her chin, feigning ignorance. “About?”
“The pizza, the movie…”
“Forgetting me,” she adds.
I approach her, trying to stay calm and keep my hands off her. “I didn’t forget you. I can’t…forget you.”
She’s quiet, holding my eyes, and I’m not sure what’s going on in her head, but I just needed to say it to her face. I don’t want her acting out because she thinks I was being careless with her.
Without another word, she twists around and heads down the hallway, pushing through the exit.
“Where are you going?” I follow her.
“My sister has a change of clothes in her car,” she answers, still sounding impatient with me. “I’m fine, and I’ll be home later, okay?”
She reaches Cam’s white Mustang in the crowded parking lot and goes to the driver’s side.
“Stop.” I come up behind her, putting my hand on the door in front of her. “Just let me explain.”
She twirls around, a sympathetic look on her face. “Oh, I’m sure you have an excuse. A really good one. No worries.”
She turns back around and reaches for the handle, but I need her to listen. Just for a second.
“Stop. Please.” I breathe hard, staring at the back of her head. “Jordan, I…
I swallow, just wanting her to turn around and look at me with her sweet smile and gentle eyes again.
I drop my voice to barely a whisper. “I can’t lose him,” I tell her.
She stills, and all I can hear is her breathing. Did she have any regrets when she woke up this morning?
