And it was fucking well working!
I had no idea why she was doing it, but I couldn’t bring myself to stop it. It was temptationandit was a hunger that was consuming me from within.
‘What do you think you’re doing, Mouse?’
‘Ask me to stop, and I will.’
Now, why would I ever do that? ‘I wouldn’t exactly ask you to stop. Maybe just change the location.’ And I knew just the perfect place where she couldresumeher activities.
‘You know as well as I do that it isn’t going to happen. This time, I want things done like they’re supposed to,’ her voice was deadly serious as she was asking something I barely dared to think about.
I was expecting it to be a trap, but I never expected it in a million years to be a masked second chance. Strangely enough, I think she was considering making thegirlfriendpart real and truly becoming Queen B.
The thought was arousing an unprecedented joy, yet I suddenly realized that I had regained possession of my own finger. Our little game had ended quicker than it even began. It was all just a short setup to prove a point.
But no matter what the fuck went through that deranged head of mine, I was still Cole Clayborne, king of EMA, and I wasn’t going to let myself get stumped by anyone in this world. ‘We can play games if that is what you’re also into, but don’t believe for a single second that I will letyouplay a game with me. Got that?’
Despite whatever I might have felt for her, I wasn’t going to let her turn me into a puppet.
‘Yes... I got it. Now, excuse me, I have to get to class.’ She didn’t wait for my permission to leave this time around, and as I was the one who had broken the deal, I had no right to hold her back.
I knew that she didn’t run due to some superiority complex. She ran because she didn’t understand how to handle the volcanic attraction between us. As my mind cleared, and my temper calmed down, I realized that this was showing itself to be either the end or the dawn of a new beginning.
I hoped it was grounds for something new. And what better place to start a relationship than in the bedroom?
The nightfall did something to me. It was like it cast so much pressure on my shoulders that I couldn’t bare it alone, leading my path to venture into Ferris’s mansion.
I need to see her and make sense of our conversation.
Filling a large whiskey glass from the bar, I took the stairs to her bedroom where I found myself a cozy spot on an armchair, next to her bed where I was to wait for her.
‘Cole!?’ I could hear the surprise in her voice as she entered the door. ‘What are you doing here?’
‘I was waiting for you.’
‘And you couldn’t find the light switch? You scared the hell out of me.’
‘I just wanted to be alone with my thoughts.’ I had so many of them floating around in my head that I feared my mind was going to explode — and still not find a final resolution.
‘Did your parents kick you out, or what?’
‘They didn’t. My mother is actually expecting you for dinner soon. But that’s not why I’m here.’
‘Why are you here, then?’
I wasn’t exactly sure why I was there. Maybe it was becauseI didn’t want to be anywhere else. But one thing I knew for certain, ‘I want to spend the night.’
‘Cole... I-.’ I could hear her stuttering. She didn’t know how she would answer that kind of statement.
‘I didn’t say I want to have sex with you. I said I want to spend the night.’ Okay, I did want to have sex with her every fucking single second of the day, but that night wasn’t about that. ‘Come here.’ I rose from the chair, in an open invitation for her to join me.
For a second there I thought she wouldn’t come. But then her feet began moving and, in just a few steps she was totally wrapped around me, shipwrecked against my chest.
I let her stay just like that for a while, trying to imprint the moment somewhere deep within me. Still, we couldn’t spend the night there. ‘I don’t want you to fall asleep standing. Let’s get you into bed.’ Setting a small distance between our bodies I showed her the red flannel pajamas that were waiting for her on the quilt.
‘I haven’t seen them since Emerald City. What on Earth made you choose those?’
‘It helps me with the no sex part.’ Although, I was just trying to fool myself. Nothing could help me with theno-sex part.
