JADA
We’re heading back to the room together, another unbelievable day at the resort. I’m glad today has been so busy, and I didn’t obsess over last night at all. I couldn’t help but enjoy the time we spent together. Plus, we got to see Heidi.
I did notice however, that when I came back from the bathroom, Carter seemed a little different. I didn’t want to push him, but I’m starting to worry that something might actually be wrong.
I’m about to question him as we enter our room and close the door, but Carter speaks first once I’ve sat down.
“So…Heidi may have said something kinda silly while you were gone.”
I didn’t expect him to come right out with it. I should have known better. Carter’s always been very honest with me. It’s one of the perks of our friendship.
“Yeah?” I ask, curious as to where this is going. I cross my legs.
“She said, and I think she’s totally blind and doesn’t understand our friendship and the way we get along…that, ya know, we spend so much time together. It seems like…” he clears his throat. “She’s worried we might be developing real feelings for one another.”
My heart slams into my ribcage. I look up into Carter’s eyes, not exactly sure what he’s thinking. His sister thinks we actually like one another? I feel like a child, caught with my hand in the cookie jar, but somehow worse. Like she sees right through me, even if I haven’t quite accepted it myself.
“Well…” I’m not ready to tell him. I’m not ready to admit that I might actually have some feelings there for him. Because I don’t want him to have to deal with my feelings which he doesn’t share. I don’t want to be the one ruining this.
I decide to play the field. If I downplay it, turn it back on him, maybe I can figure this out.
“What do you think? Do you think she’s right? I mean, she’syoursister. She knows you best.”
Quickly, Carter takes another step towards me.
“Jada, come on,” Carter’s voice comes out gravely, and I’m caught off guard by this. “You are a beautiful, vivacious woman. I mean, I don’t know where this could lead, whether we tried or not.”
I feel myself warm, and sweat begins to accumulate under my arms at his words. What is he saying? Is he telling me he wants something from this? Is he implying that therearefeelings he’s been hiding from me?
“Oh yeah? And what would trying look like? I mean, if thiswereto go somewhere?” I wonder if he can hear the strain in my voice. The way he is making my body feel, and how much I want to know what he’s feeling.
Carter smiles at me, and he takes another step closer, standing right in front of me still cross legged on the bed. “I mean, I’d want to learn what you like.” He puts his hand under my chin, keeping me from looking away. “And I’d want to make sure that you were comfortable.”
I lick my lips, my heart still pounding away in my chest as he lifts me up from the bed with my chin. I can’t believe this is happening. I can feel myself trying not to shiver, which is strange because I’m also sweating.
“And what about you?” I manage to get out.
He lifts his eyebrow. “What about me?”
I clear my throat, trying to keep myself grounded. “What if I want to make sure you’re taken care of? I mean, you always take care of me in this fake relationship. Maybe someone should make sureyouare happy.”
He leans down, our noses almost touching. “I have you as my wife,” he whispers to me, and my eyes drop to his lips. “I promise you, Jada, I’m happy.”
And then, he kisses me. Our lips press together hard, and I lose all sense of self. I bring my arms around his neck, and he picks me up, allowing me to wrap my legs around his stomach. I breathe out as a visceral reaction to our bodies intertwined, and he threads his tongue into my mouth, exploring my mouth as I hum out an approval. Oh my God, he is very good at that.
He lets his hands wander down my back, and his fingers find their way into my panties, which gives me the wherewithal to realize that they aresoaked. I didn’t realize he’d made me drenched in the few minutes since we’d returned to the room. He squeezes my ass with both hands, and it fits perfectly within his palms.
“Perfect,”he murmurs into my mouth.
He stops kissing me and lifts me with his arms onto the bed, laying me down before I have a chance to wonder what’s next. He climbs over me fast, and I grab his shirt.
“I need this off. Now.” It comes out like a growl, but I don’t care. I needhim.
We take off his shirt together, and he rips my clothes off, exposing my breasts and my soaked panties. He hooks a finger into the waistband and tugs them down. He doesn’t stop staring at my body, and I find myself becoming more turned on by the second.
“God.”He looks hungry, and I want to make this even, so I begin to work at his pants, and he helps me slide them off, making sure to include his boxers. Then it’s just the two of us, on the bed, naked. I look at his entire body, and my heart is so out of control I swear it’s going to explode out of me.
