“Emma, that was fucking incredible.” She gives me that smile that does things to my heart.

“This whole night has been incredible.” I kiss her lips.

“This part of the night especially.” We both lightly laugh and then it happens. Pounding on my door.

“Coop? Shit, Coop we need you, like now. You know I’d never bother you, but the cops are here man.” Fuck! You have got to be kidding me. I jump off of her and start throwing my clothes on faster than I ever have before. I’m pushing my feet into my sneakers when I turn to look at her.

“Shit, Emma, I’m so sorry. I need to handle this. Take your time; do whatever you need. You can stay here or come downstairs. I’m so sorry, but I need to go.” She crawls to the end of the bed completely naked still and pulls me to her. She quickly kisses my lips.

“Go. I’m fine. You need to go, I understand.” I never wanted to blow off being at the bar more in my life, but I turn and run to the door swinging it open. Levi is standing there looking pissed.

“Man, I’m so fucking sorry. I feel like a cock block for banging on your door, but the cops insisted on talking to you.” I slap his shoulder and start walking down the hallway.

“Seriously, Levi, don’t worry about it. What the fuck happened?” He explains that there was a fight between two guys. They threw a couple of punches, but Roy got them to leave. Apparently, the fight continued out front and one of the girlfriends called the cops. Fucking unreal. Every time I get a chance to be with Emma, something is interrupting. Granted we just had the best no-sex, sex I’ve ever had in my life, but I couldn’t even stay and hold her. It was like, thanks for the blow job, I’m out. I need a full day with her, just her and no damn interruptions.

I explained to the cops everything Levi told me and they handled it as an outside matter, thankfully. They finally leave and at this point a lot of the bar has cleared out. I lean against the bar and blow out a breath. What a fucking night.

YET AGAIN WE ARE PULLED away from each other. I totally understand that he was needed, it just sucks. I would have liked to spend a little time with him after the most unbelievable oral sex I have ever had or given. I’ve given my share of blowjobs before, but never have I wanted it like I did with Cooper. I actually craved having his dick in my mouth, tasting his come. Forget about when he was going down on me. Oh my God, the man knows how to use his fingers and tongue. I can only imagine how good he is with his dick.

I smile as I get out of bed. I’m totally relaxed now that my body isn’t hoarding all that sexual tension. I am searching for my clothes, and I’ve found everything but my bra. I need more light. I go over to the door seeing that there is a switch on the wall. I flip it and I am blinded by the bright light of the ceiling fan over the bed. After my eyes finally adjust to the brightness, I walk back over to the bed and see my bra poking out from under the bed. I grab it and slip it on my arms. “What the hell?” I move over to the mirror that hangs above his dresser. I inspect myself in the mirror and laugh when I notice that Cooper left me with some love bites on my breasts. There is a part of me that actually likes the idea that he has marked me, claimed me in a way. I clasp my bra, moving back over to the bed to put the rest of my clothes on. Once I am fully dressed, I sit on the bed to put my boots back on. When I am through, I stand to fix the blanket so when he comes to bed he can think of me and how I made his bed back up. I turn my head and stand rooted in place. The most magnificent mural I have ever seen is painted above his bed. It is a guitar, a Gibson J 45 to be specific. It must be his Gibson J 45. There are song lyrics written all over, with music notes as well. It is stunning. I begin to read the lyrics smiling when I come to one that I know.

‘There are times you never think the light of day will shine, that your heartache will consume you whole and take what’s left behind’

‘Your love I can’t deny, has made me want to be this guy’

‘The beat of the drums, the strum of the guitar, the sound of the music helps make us who we are’

‘Our bodies are touching, our lips sealed so tight.’

‘The party is here and damn right, so’s the beer’

I can tell by reading each of these lyrics they are here for a reason. There is heartache, love, music, sex, and partying. I feel like I just learned a bit more about him. This is why I love music so much. There is something in every song that can pull an emotion out in you whether it is bringing back a memory, creating one, or simply making you want to dance your ass off.

I decide I should get back downstairs before it seems creepy that I’ve been up here by myself for so long. I leave his bedroom and look around at his beautiful home one more time. I walk out and close the door behind me. I have a smile in place as I make my way back to the bar. Rowan is leaning against the bar talking with Roy; my girl has definitely got a crush. Hunter, Levi, and Ryder are talking with Cooper, I’m sure about whatever it was the cops were called for. I start to make my way to the bar and Cooper looks my way. He slaps Levi on the shoulder before making his way over toward me. I stop at the end of the bar, next to Rowan and she turns to look at me. Sh

e gets a huge smile on her face and I roll my eyes. “Em, you look happy. Maybe even glowing.” She laughs when I try to kick her and miss. I don’t even notice Cooper until I feel his arms around my waist. He nips my ear before he whispers in it.

“Damn, I wish you were still in my bed.” I smile and turn around to face him. I look up at him and he moves my hair off my shoulders. He leans down, pressing a soft kiss to my lips. He pulls back and we both smile.

“Everything alright with the cops?” I need to change the conversation from the bedroom because I would be easily convinced to go back. He blows out a breath and squeezes me tighter.

“Yes, everything is fine. Just a small fight.” This poor guy. He has a lot on his plate, but he seems to handle it all so well. I know we only just met, but he seems to have it all together. He runs a successful bar, he has friends that obviously love him, and he knows how to treat a woman. At least this is the impression I have of him as of now. He touches my cheek and I look up at him. “You alright, doll? You seemed to zone out there for a minute.” Oops. I didn’t realize I was in my own thoughts. I push up on my toes to kiss his talented mouth.

“I’m fine. I was just thinking about how put together you seem.” I feel my cheeks blush with my confession. He winks and pulls me into a hug. He rests his chin on top of my head and I feel him sigh.

“Thank you,” he says softly after kissing my head. I feel my heart squeeze because he seems almost sad. There is so much more we need to learn about each other without our hormones taking over.

Rowan and I stay talking for about a half hour before she reminds me I have work in the morning. Cooper hasn’t released his hold on me the whole time and damn if I don’t love it. I look at up him smiling. “I’m going to have to leave. I have work tomorrow, so I need to get some sleep.” He gives me the pouty lip and we both laugh. He leans down capturing my mouth in a slow, sweet kiss. I’ve got my hands in his back pockets, while he moves his to my hair. After a few minutes he slowly pulls away, resting his forehead on mine.

“I had a great time tonight, Emma.” We are staring into each other’s eyes and it feels so intimate, like it is just the two of us.

“I did too, Cooper.” He gives me that wink and starts to pull away. I will admit that I am actually feeling sad at the loss of closeness which is ridiculous.

“Em, the cab is here. We need to go,” Rowan yells to me from over by the door. Cooper grabs my hand, leading me toward the door. Once we are outside, Rowan climbs into the cab, but Cooper grabs me one last time. He slams his mouth to mine, in a much more aggressive kiss this time. I moan when he cups my ass, causing him to growl. I’m holding onto the front of his T-shirt, lost in the sensations that are slowly taking over my body. This time a honking cab pulls us apart. It scares the shit out of me, causing me to jump. Cooper pulls me into a protective hug, rubbing my back.

“Looks like this asshole is ready to get you home. Please text or call when you get there so I know.” I pull away smiling. This man is doing things to me that are making it hard for me to remember that I’ve only just met him. I push up on my toes and kiss him quickly before climbing into the cab with Rowan.

Once I am settled into the cab, the driver takes off. I turn my head to see Cooper watching us drive away with his tattooed arms crossed in front of his chest. “Well shit, Em, are you going to make me beg? Did you guys have sex?” I snap my head to her with wide eyes.
