THIRTEEN

The guys came backwith my keys and phone half an hour later, and despite Ford’s claim that he wanted me to be friends with them, I claimed tiredness and kept the exchange really brief.

I studied until I was too tired to focus, and then stared over at my bed for a minute.

It was the only one in the room with bedding, and I wasn’t bitchy enough to make Ford sleep on the floor after I’d already jumped him earlier. The mattress on the loft bed above me was bare, since I had both to choose from that semester.

Leaning my head down a bit, I casually sniffed myself, trying to be sneaky about it.

I didn’t smell bad; I did use deodorant and perfume and whatnot.

“You smell good,” Ford told me.

Dammit, he’d noticed me sniffing my pits.

“I need to shower,” I countered. “I may not smell bad, but we had sex, so I’m sure it’s not all clean and fresh down there.” I gestured to my lady bits, and he flashed me a carnal grin.

“I prefer it dirty.”

I snorted, grabbing a pen off my desk and throwing it at him. He caught it, and made a show of sniffing it. “Now this smells good too.”

I laughed. “Weirdo.”

“I’m pretty sure the wolf thing already confirmed that.”

True.

“Alright.” I glanced at the clock. It was almost one AM. “Are you up for a little rule-breaking?”

“If you and a shower are involved, absolutely.”

I threw another pen at him, faster that time, and it hit him in the arm before falling to the ground. He flashed me a grin. “There’s the sass.”

“Oh, I’ve got plenty of sass.” I stood, grabbing my shower stuff and sandals. “You’re going to have to wait outside the stall, where I can see at least your shoulder or something. If anyone comes by, you can duck into another stall. My wolf will probably survive it.”

I was just going to wash up quick and hope we didn’t have to test the theory… because I was thinking she would not be okay with the idea of Ford out of her sight while half-naked in an empty shower, where any random chick could just walk in and join him.

Oof.

Yeah, I wasn’t a fan of that idea, and I wasn’t even the bitchy one with sharp teeth.

“Alright,” he agreed.

I tossed my towel over my shoulder, leaving my hair up. It sure as hell wasn’t getting washed again so soon after I’d used Ford’s stuff on it, even though he had decent hair shit.

Opening the door a crack, I peered out into the hallway and checked for anyone else. I could hear some music coming from somewhere down the hall, but it sounded like it was from the guys’ part of the building, so I didn’t pay it too much attention.

After looking both ways twice, I grabbed his hand and rushed down the hallway, tugging him with me. He had no problem keeping up, obviously.

Ford waited outside while I stuck my head into the bathroom, and when I was sure the coast was clear, I dragged him in with me. We went to the stall in the furthest, darkest corner, where no one would see us immediately.

I pushed him lightly into the wall just outside the stall, then tossed my towel over his shoulder before stepping inside and tugging the curtain closed. There were small gaps on either side of the thing, and I could clearly see his shoulder through one of them, which calmed me a little.

My rule-following heart still pounded though.

I turned on the water, tugging my shower cap on, and didn’t wait for the water to warm before I grabbed my soap and started to scrub myself clean. Since my pits were too hairy to ignore, I rushed through a shave.

I was rinsing shower gel off when I heard another girl’s voice, and Ford started to move away from the curtain.
