I cough out a laugh. “What?”

She gestures to herself with a hand and I swear that semi is no longer a semi and she absolutely has to be noticing it. “I just had my first bath in three days, I gotta put something clean on and wash this stuff.”

Smirking, I take a step toward her. “So you’re okay with Mountain Man Mike’s dick and balls against you, but not mine?”

Delaney puts her hand against my chest, stopping me from coming closer. My heart pounds beneath her touch and fuck me, if I don’t want to pull her into my arms and convince her we don’t need to be wearing any fucking clothes at all right now.

“Well, I mean, you are,” she whispers.

Chuckling, I shake my head. “I’m totally happy to go commando if you think that’s better.”

She lets out a loud laugh, her smile actually reaching her eyes as she gazes up at me. I risk another step closer, her hand still on my chest as I close the gap between us, my hand sliding onto her hip.

I don’t miss the gasp that falls from her mouth, or the way her pupils darken at my touch as I lean down so my mouth is only inches from hers.

“I meant what I said last night, Laney,” I whisper, my fingers tightening against her hipbone as I remind her of the confessions we both made. “I know you don’t believe me, but I…”

I trail off, my words lost as her lips part and I give up on trying to stop this, closing the gap between us and kissing her.

I expect her to freak out, to push me away, but she doesn’t. And as much as I know I should stop this, if only to prove to her how serious I am, I can’t stop. I don’t want to stop.

DELANEY

I’m standing here in my dirty underwear, kissing Alex and I don’t want to stop, but I need to. We aren’t good together. We fight and make up and become friends and then we start this whole process over again. We’re in this strangely perfect, blissful upswing despite our situation and his mouth feels so fucking good against mine.

The tip of his tongue traces along my teeth and I moan, hating myself for giving into him so easily, but he’s just so damn easy. The chemistry between us crackles, igniting and catching fire like the dry logs in the stove. We’re burning so hot we’re bound to combust, but I seriously don’t give a shit. This could be the best entertainment we’ve had since we’ve found ourselves trapped here.

Both of us are breathing hard, our chests heaving, pushing us closer and closer. Alex’s body is flush against mine, moving us against the cabinets, his hands gripping my ass and he lifts me until I’m sitting on the counter.

I laugh a little when the counter groans, cracking under the weight of my ass. “That makes me a little self-conscious,” I mutter, now making Alex laugh.

“It’s not your ass, it’s this old ass cabin,” Alex growls, nipping at my swollen bottom lip as his fingers grip my bare thighs.

Fuck, all it would take is a few simple moves and he could be inside me, giving both of us what we know we want. I wiggle closer to him, so his already hard dick lines up perfectly, and I can’t help but grind into him. Everything in my body aches, begging me to just give in. The wait is worse than anything.

“Ever since you said you have an IUD, I’ve been dreaming about fucking you bare,” Alex murmurs, sucking at my neck as I lean back, giving him better access. His words have my underwear soaked and the way his mouth feels against my neck has me moaning with reckless abandon.

“You keep talking like that I’m going to be coming in my panties.”

“We don’t want that, so we better get them off,” Alex replies, smirking against my mouth as he hooks his thumbs into the sides of my underwear.

And just as I lift my ass, a hard gust of wind howls through the drafty old windows and the door to the cabin flies open. Snow begins piling up, blowing in small drifts as Alex and I scramble to get ourselves over to the door.

This snow is still out of control and since Alex kicked the door in when we first found the cabin, it doesn’t seem to latch right anymore. The wind picks up, whipping through the cabin and I race over to the stove to block the fire from being extinguished. Alex shoots over to the door, slamming it shut, he drags a chair over and wedges it under the doorknob.

“The universe trapped us together, but for some reason it doesn’t want us to have sex,” Alex jokes, letting out a hard sigh as he looks down at the tent he’s pitching in his underwear.

His cheeks flush, looking adorably embarrassed by this awkward interruption. Not that he should be. His dick is the kind women dream of and he knows how to use it. I’ve never been left unsatisfied.

“You wanna go play in the snow?” I ask, shifting things away from what was just happening, something both of us might regret when we cycle back to our usual routine of hating each other afterward.

Alex lifts a brow at my question, pausing a few seconds before he shrugs and answers with, “Why not. What the hell else do we have to do?” It’s funny to me the way Alex just rolls with the sudden change in direction. One minute we’re all hot and heavy and the next we’re going to play in the snow. It’s probably better that it ended this way rather than us hooking up and risking the friendship we’ve rekindled.

We have the gear and we’ve done nothing but trap ourselves in this cabin, bored and restless. It might be good to get outside even if it is snowing like crazy. It wouldn’t be the first time either of us has been out in this kind of weather. We ski in it all the time, enjoying the fresh powder under our skis.

Today might be a little different. No skis, no mountains, no warm houses to go home to, no hot tub or hot chocolate, but we both need something to pass the time. We both need to remind ourselves that even though things feel dire, we’re hopefully going to be okay. And it’s okay for us to have some fun and try to do things that feel normal.
