Her eyes widen but before she can say anything, I’m right there, grabbing her wrists and slamming her up against her locker. Her gasp is swallowed by my lips coming down on hers and a deep groan rumbles through my chest.
I’ve been craving this. I’ve needed it like my next breath. One hit and I was addicted.
My knee slides between her legs and she hooks her leg up over my hip. I collect both her wrists in one hand and slide my other down her leg, needing to feel her skin on mine. Kaylah moans and allows me to take whatever it is that I need, but before I let myself get carried away, I pull back to see the fire in her eyes.
I look her square in the eyes, making sure she hears me. “You’re mine.”
She sucks in a breath, her chest rising against mine. “I…”
“No, Kaylah. Hear me. You are mine. I want you and don’t act like you don’t feel it too.”
She searches my eyes. “But, Nate and Jackson?”
“Fuck them. Nothing is worth holding back from you. If they have a problem with it, then they can deal with it, but I’m not staying away from you.”
“Are you sure?” she asks as I release her wrists and take her waist.
I gently press my lips against her. “Yeah, Tiger. I’m fucking sure. I need to see what the hell this is.”
Kaylah nods. “Okay, then I’m yours.”
Relief washes through me and I press into her. “Yeah?” I ask, sounding like a too-excited kid.
Kaylah grins wide, throwing her arms around my neck. “Yeah, but I should warn you, while Nate might just fume about this, Jackson is going to explode and he won’t be coming for me, it’ll be you.”
I smirk. “I can handle your brother.”
“Can you handle him while still respecting the fact that he’s my brother? I might be angry with him right now, but deep down I still love him.”
“If that’s what you fucking need from me, then that’s what you get. I don’t want to fuck this up.”
Happiness shines through her eyes and makes them sparkle like fucking diamonds. How is it possible for this one human being to be so damn beautiful? Kaylah pulls me back in and crushes her lips against mine. “Thank you,” she murmurs between kisses. “That means a lot.”
When we finally pull apart from each other, I look down at her with a wide smile. “Let me take you out. Anywhere you want to go, it’s all yours.”
She shakes her head with those eyes still glistening. “Take me back to your place.”
Well, damn. I wouldn’t want to disappoint her by saying no.
Chapter 8
Kaylah
I stand at my locker on Wednesday morning and grin when two warm arms curl around my waist from behind. Jesse’s lips drop to my neck and I close my eyes in satisfaction. Ever since he first touched me at that party, I’ve wondered if having something more with him would be a smart move, but now that I have it, I wouldn’t change it for the world.
Jesse is the sweetest kind of guy with a massive heart and I quickly realized that the cocky grin and smart-ass nature is all an act. That’s not who he is and the second I discovered his little secret, I fell for him so much more.
“How’d you sleep?” he murmurs against my skin, making me wonder if we’d have time to sneak into one of the supply closets or empty classrooms and scratch this itch that has been burning since he dropped me home last night.
“Perfectly,” I tell him, finishing with my locker and turning in his arms to look up into his eyes. “For some reason, I was super exhausted and I slept like a baby.”
Jesse grins with pride, knowing the only reason I’d be exhausted was because he thoroughly screwed me over and over again until my body was numb. “Hmm, strange. Me too.”
I laugh and he presses me back into my locker and kisses me deeply. Gasps and heart-broken cries are heard all around me and my brows furrow. What the hell is that?
I pull back from Jesse and realize that it’s all for him. I didn’t notice it yesterday when he asked me out as I was far too caught up in our moment but I don’t doubt they were all there and more than pissed off that I’ve just taken their favorite bachelor off the market.
Jesse doesn’t even seem to notice them as his eyes are only for me, though I can’t help but feel their glares digging into me. I think becoming his girl comes with a bit more weight than I had thought.
Jesse pulls back. “Let me grab my shit from my locker and I’ll walk you to your homeroom.”
I beam back at him. God, he’s so freaking sweet. How did the broken girl from Haven Falls get so damn lucky? Jesse jogs up to his locker and I fall back against mine, watching him go as a dreamy haze comes over me. I can’t wait to see where this goes.
