Chapter Sixteen

“Dibs?” She pushedaway her plate, even though it was still half-full. “Like I’m the last beer?”

“It’s total bullshit,” he agreed.

“Is that why you didn’t make a move on me?”

“What?” He shook his head. “I mean, we were also at each other’s throats the whole time.”

“Or had our tongues down them.” There was a hint of irritation in her tone now.

Crap.

“I know how it sounds. But there’s also this whole Bro Code thing. If your friend—or in my instance, cousin—likes a girl, you can’t go after her. And he really seemed to like you.”

“Not this Bro Code shit again. I heard all about this with Kris and Blake.” She rolled her eyes. “What’s our code that we’re breaking? Bros before hoes?”

“More like cousin before lovin’,” he joked. “Or something like that.”

“Oh, you think that’s funny?”

Shit, he was making it worse.

James stood and lifted her into his arms.

“What are you doing?” She didn’t struggle, though, as he carried her to the couch and plopped her down.

“You’re mad.”

“Well, I’m not happy.”

He sat beside her and leaned down to catch her mouth in a slow kiss, using his tongue to tease away that pout.

It only took a moment before she gave a small murmur and kissed him back.

When he lifted his head, he met her gaze. “I can’t say much except I’m sorry, and I was being stupid.”

She grunted. “Like, incredibly stupid and immature.”

He eased a hand up and under his shirt she wore to cup one naked breast. Her nipple peaked into his palm immediately, and she exhaled softly.

With a smile, he eased off the couch to sit on his knees in front of her. He slid his palms up her thighs to catch her panties and dragged them down and off her legs.

“What are you doing?” She raised a brow.

“Making sure you’re happy and apologizing for being such an idiot.”

And then he buried his face between her thighs. His tongue flicked into her folds to find her already wet and warm.

God, it’d always been like this. The fighting always made them hotter for each other.

Tori slid her fingers into his hair and tugged slightly.

“You know, you can’t just go down on me every time we argue.”

He flicked his tongue over her clit, and she gasped.

With a knowing smile, he lifted his mouth from her. “I’ll stop if you really want me to.”
