“Never apologize for enjoying something, sweetheart,” Cohen said, his voice a little soft. “I, um, I think I figured out the clue.”
My eyes went wide, and I scooted off the bed so I could look at the screen. Cohen didn’t move when I approached, my body brushing against his arm as I leaned closer to inspect what he had. Turning my head, I found him watching me.
“Am I in the way?” I asked. I think I heard Asa snort behind me, but I didn’t dare look away from Cohen.
“Nope. In fact, you have a seat right here.” Before I could protest, he pulled me down into his lap, locking me in with his arms around my waist. Resting his head on my shoulder, I heard him sigh.
“So, I realized that he was using a quote from a book—Forgotten Time.”
“Huh, that kind of makes sense.” Memories of us discussing it began to emerge, and I shut them down, not wanting to fall into the past when I was with them.
“Based on that, I think his next location will be the theme park.”
“It’s real?” I asked, not realizing it had been about an actual place.
“I don’t know if it’s the one from the book, but there is one named Raven Time. I think he’ll be at the funhouse.”
“How do you know that?” I asked, turning my head, forgetting I was sitting on his lap, bringing our faces dangerously close.
He swallowed, his eyes bouncing back and forth from my lips to my eyes. “Because after the quote was the following. ‘The fun begins on Tuesday at 7:00 pm.’ So, my guess is he’s telling you when and where. You just had to figure out the where first.”
“You’re brilliant, you know?” I smiled, happiness fluttering through me. I never would’ve solved that in time.
Cohen’s cheeks did that thing he denied and reddened, causing me to smirk. I liked how I was affecting him.
“How long does it take to get there from here?” Asa asked.
I grabbed the phone and put it on the map, and he hovered over my other shoulder as it calculated. “Looks like about eight hours,” I sighed.
“Looks like we’re going on a road trip then,” Asa beamed down at me. I grinned back, not hating the idea with him along.
“You make everything better. I was stupid to think I could do this without you,” I admitted. Reaching up, I pulled his face down to mine, kissing him.
“If you’re going to be handing out kisses, my lips are right here,” Cohen said into my ear, his lips brushing against my neck in the process. Tiny tingles shot through me and goosebumps appeared on my arms at the slight touch. I sucked in a breath, and I could’ve sworn I heard him growl in my ear as he shifted beneath me.
“Shit, I have no clothes,” I said, remembering I needed to do laundry as I tried to distract myself from rubbing my butt into the hard length I felt growing beneath me.
“We can buy you some things for now and do it once we’re there,” Asa offered.
“Or you just go naked,” Cohen stated, no longer trying to hide how aroused he was from me sitting on his lap.
Swallowing, I tried to focus on the computer screen. “Clothes, yeah, good idea.”
Cohen chuckled darkly behind me, the air fanning against my neck, doing nothing to help with my current state.
“Do you need to take a shower?” Asa asked, a hint of amusement in his voice. “I can go grab you some more things if you do.”
“Shower, um, no, not really. I’m good for now. I guess we can pack up then and head out. Do you guys have a car? I hopped between a rental and the bus.”
“Yeah, I have a car,” Cohen said, not releasing me. I kept tapping his arm, hoping he’d get the message. My self-control to not rub my butt into his cock was lessening the longer I sat there.
“Perfect. It’s settled then.”
He still didn’t let me go, and I looked up to find Asa, smirking. “I’ll be back in a few minutes then. Don’t kill each other.”
With that, my boyfriend left me practically panting on another guy's lap as he strolled out like he didn’t care. Rude.
“Um, can I get up, please?” I asked, deciding to try going for the direct approach.
