“You ran to me because of her?” I step away.
“Dammit.” He follows me and grabs my arms. “She placed her hands on my chest, and I craved you. I’d had enough of pretending that you didn’t mean anything to me when you mean the whole fucking world.” He runs his hands through his hair. “What are we going to do?”
“I’ll meet you at your house.” I smile. “I know where it is.”
He blinks and smirks. “You do, huh?”
“Not that I’m a stalker or anything.” I grin and after I’ve quickly pressed a kiss to his lips, I move away. Just in time as well as the woman in question walks into the store.
The woman’s face lights up when she spots Sawyer and my heart hurts as the reality of the situation has just hit me in the face. He can be with her in public, but with me, we’re going to have to be more careful. It hurts though.
Moving further away, I hear his whispered, “Andie,” but I don’t turnaround, and I carry on going out of the store. At least I can breathe again although my chest still feels tight.
Sawyer’s house is pretty with a white picket fence around the front lawn. The house is a two story with a garage built in. From what I’ve heard he has a pool outback, and obviously a patio area.
It takes me a few minutes of looking at his home before it registers that Pattie is stood in the front doorway. I stare at her for a few moments while she does the same, before I inhale softly and move toward her.
“I thought Sawyer would be with you.” She frowns. “I mean he isn’t here.” Placing her hands on her hips, she adds, “Okay, what’s going on?”
Unexpectedly, I laugh. “We were on our way back here and called for food and coffee when another professor appeared so we had to part.” I shrug. “It hurts that’s all.”
Pattie offers me a sympathetic smile and steps toward me, and wrapping her arm around my shoulders, she ushers me into the house.
I don’t take much notice of the house with Pattie being a whirlwind. Before I know it, she has me out the back and sitting around a large patio table. She makes me smile when she takes the bag with our bagels inside and shoves them onto plates. “He’s back.” She squeezes my shoulder before disappearing with the one we bought for her.
I watch her go and smile as I watch Sawyer move toward me. He looks harassed and kissing the top of my head, he drops into the chair beside mine. “God! I’m glad we’re in different departments. Different buildings too.”
“That bad, huh?” I take pity on him and squeeze his thigh.
He covers my hand to keep it on him and smiles. “She wanted me to stay and have coffee with her.” Jealousy eats at me at hearing his words, but when he continues, butterflies take flight, “I told her that I had a girlfriend who would be upset if she discovered I’d had coffee with another woman.”
“I like that, I bet she didn’t.”
“Hmm, thought you might.” He takes a chunk out of his bagel and grins around the food. “She replied,” he mumbles and swallows the food, “that surely my, and I quote, ‘little friend’, wouldn’t mind me having coffee with a colleague.”
“I’m the jealous type, and that woman wants to be more than a colleague.”
“That’s what I pointed out. She paused so I got the hell out of there.” He grins. “Left her gaping after me. You should have seen her. She probably thinks I’m a dork.”
“One can hope.” I eat my bagel and watch him from the corner of my eye, the smile on his face stays.
Chasing my bagel with sips of coffee, I watch Pattie as she joins us, her face bright with a smile. “So,” she rests her chin on her hands on the table, “you’re both together, huh?”
We grin at her.
“Okay, don’t tell me then.” She sulks but her smile doesn’t slip. “So, you guys had a hot night, huh? It’s been so long since I had one of those.” She winces. “If your night hadn’t been with my brother I’d be begging for details, but although I’m happy he’s stopped being a typical asshole, I don’t want to know anything about him.” She clears her throat. “So, I thought I’d go and do some shopping for a couple of hours.” She smirks, and moving away, she shouts over her shoulder, “Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do.” Her laugh trails behind her.
“I’ll give her two seconds and then I’m showing you my bedroom,” Sawyer says, drawing my eyes to him.
I smile sweetly and hearing a car moving away from the house, I get to my feet and slowly start unbuttoning my dress while Sawyer watches, his mouth hanging open.
Letting it drop to the floor, I stretch and watch through my hooded eyes as Sawyer gulps when his eyes land on my panties. They’re deep purple hipsters made of smooth lace. “I bought these thinking about you,” I admit, slipping them down my thighs, following them with my bra.
“Fuck,” he gasps at my nude self. “You’re so fucking gorgeous that my jeans are about to burst.”
I glance at the erection straining against his zipper, and with a sultry smile, I turn my back and dive into the pool.
I’ve never had sex in a pool before.
