She shook her head. “False. I would tell you if you looked like a bag of crap.”
I laughed and dragged her out of the store. There were a couple more shops down the street that I wanted to try.
“Do you think he’s still around?” Bethany asked, lowering her voice as we stepped onto the street.
“Who?” I asked.
“Joshua,” Bethany said.
“Oh.” I blinked. Joshua had been completely driven from my mind. Bethany questioned me about Michael so much that I barely had time to think about anything else.
“I know you don’t want to run into him,” Bethany said.
“Who cares?” I said, waving my hand casually.
“Really?” Bethany raised her eyebrows.
“Joshua who?”
I pranced off down the sidewalk with Bethany laughing beside me.
CHAPTER 14
MICHAEL
My jaw dropped when I saw Julie step out of her house. She was wearing a floor-length blue dress. It was the exact same shade as her eyes and, for a second, I couldn’t breathe. My eyes trailed down her body, taking in the full effect of her appearance.
The dress hugged her breasts and waist, fanning out at her hips and then trailing lightly down to her feet. It was strapless, so she wore a sheer wrap around her shoulders. Her high heels matched the wrap perfectly, and when she spun in a circle, I felt my insides tighten. My body reacted to her without my permission, driving me forward until I was standing right in front of her.
I reached for her hand, holding her at arm’s length so I could keep admiring her. She blushed slightly, making her look even more beautiful. When I kissed her lips, she sighed and rested her hand on my chest. It took all my strength to pull away from her. The limo was waiting, and I couldn’t afford to be late to my own party.
“Come on,” I said, tugging her gently toward the car. “Let’s go before I change my mind.”
“Change your mind about what?” Julie asked.
“About going to this stupid party,” I said.
“It’s your party,” she laughed, as I held open the back door of the limo.
“Which is why we have to go,” I said with a sigh. “But that dress looks like it was specifically designed to torture me.”
“Oh?” She raised her eyebrows as I slid in beside her. “You like?”
“I love,” I growled.
I kissed her quickly, sliding my tongue deep into her mouth. Her answering shiver was all I needed. I wrapped my arms around her waist and pulled her closer to me while she tangled her fingers in my hair.
The driver pulled away from Julie’s house, but we barely noticed. We were lost in each other’s bodies, our hands roaming freely wherever we chose.
It wasn’t until I ran my fingers through her silky hair that Julie finally pulled away. She was flushed and breathless, her pale blue eyes burned with desire.
“We should stop,” she said, panting slightly. “Before you completely wreck my hair.”
“That’s not possible,” I said softly. “Come here.”
I kissed her again, but she
pushed me away gently. With a soft smile, she settled in beside me so we could both calm down. Looking down at my lap, I knew she was right. I couldn’t exactly show up to the Four Seasons with a raging erection.
