“Okay,” I concede. “Flip the coin.”
I watch Hudson twist the quarter between his fingers, studying it for a long moment before tossing it into the air. It flips a few times before he snags it, closing his fingers tight around the coin before slamming it down on the back of his other hand.
His gaze meets mine for the briefest moment before he looks back down right as his hand lifts.
“Tails.” He smiles, his eyes once again flashing to mine.
“Well alright then.” Emma giggles. “Looks like the adventure continues.” She skips to the Uber and throws the passenger door open, dipping her head inside. “You got room for four?” She says moments before she turns back to the group. “Well come on, bitches.” She grins and quickly slides into the front seat.
“You heard the woman.” Colton is the first to move, quickly pulling open the back door and climbing inside.
I turn to follow him in, but Hudson’s fingers close around my wrist and pull me back toward him.
“Wait,” is all he says before his face lowers toward mine.
I don’t have time to react, to even breathe, before our lips connect. The instant they meet my body turns to complete mush. Melting into his so easily it’s like it was made to do just that.
His tongue skirts along my bottom lip before gently slipping inside my mouth and it’s all I can do not to moan. His fingers tangle into my hair and he tugs gently, sending arousal shooting through my belly.
The kiss ends just as abruptly as it began. Hudson pulls back to look down at me, a satisfied smile turning up the corners of his mouth.
“I’ve been wanting to do that all night.” He tucks a strand of my hair behind my ear.
“Well it took you long enough.” I shove playfully at his chest.
“Are you two coming or are you gonna stand there making out all night?” Emma groans from the car and I turn to see her leaning through the open window. “Today, love birds.” She winks at me, quickly rolling up the window.
“Come on.” I grab Hudson’s hand and pull him toward the car, releasing it to climb into the middle of the backseat next to Colton.
Hudson appears next to me seconds later, sandwiching me between him and his friend.
“Where to?” the driver asks, not seeming the least bit annoyed that he’s been sitting here waiting for us to decide what the hell we’re doing for a good five minutes.
“9999 Gulf Shore,” Emma rambles, giving the driver our address.
“Em,” I start to object.
She looks over her shoulder at me. “We decided the beach, yes?”
“Beach, not our house.”
“Same thing,” she quips.
“Wait, you liveonthe beach?” Colton asks, his voice dripping with envy.
“Technically my dad owns the condo, but yes, we live on the beach.” She settles back into her seat, strapping her seatbelt seconds before the driver pulls out onto the street.
I open my mouth to say something else but snap it closed when Hudson’s hand settles just above my knee.
I turn in his direction, kneading my bottom lip between my teeth nervously when he hits me with a look that physically makes me squirm in my seat.
Deep breaths, Lennon. Deep breaths.
Facing forward again, I try to focus on anything other than how his hand feels on my bare skin, but it’s no use. I’m completely consumed by it. I feel every shift, every tiny movement caused by the motion of the car.
I’m so distracted that I don’t even notice we’ve reached our condo complex until I hear the car door open and look up to see Emma already exiting the front seat.
I flash my eyes to Hudson who’s watching me with an expression that tells me he knows exactly what his touch is doing to me.
