“I know!” Brenna gushes.
“You’re going to make me stare at her hands all the time now!”
“I know! I was making it so obvious too!” Brenna laughs at herself. “Ugh.”
“Has Flame made any hints since you found the ring?”
“No!” Brenna whisper-shouts.
“Dang. I wonder what he’s waiting for.”
“That’s what I’m saying!” Brenna groans. “I would marry that man tomorrow.”
“Marry who?” Brenna’s eyes widen and panic strikes her face as Flame’s deep voice interrupts us from behind.
“U-Uhm…” she stammers.
I internally panic for her as she drops her head into her hands in embarrassment. Flame turns a frown on me. I hold my hands up in innocence. “Don’t you dare pull me into the middle of this, Jace.”
Trigger chuckles at his friend's obvious jealousy. Tank, Ghost, Tiny and Razor drop onto the couch around us. I have to lift my feet so Trigger can sit down. Henry scoots even farther up behind me, causing Trigger to smile at the dog. “He really likes you.”
“He’s growing on me,” I admit.
Trigger starts to slowly knead the muscles in my legs as we listen to the guys discuss a fundraiser they are planning for underprivileged kids. I have a hard time believing this was what they were discussing in church, but the fact that none of them seem angry is a good sign.
Ringer and Reaper come stomping out of the back hallway, both with scowls on their face. Okay, so only two of them seeming angry is still better than all of them being pissed.
My legs start to squirm involuntarily as Trigger continues to work his strong hands on the muscle. I can’t help the moan that escapes as my eyes flutter closed.
I know this isn’t an appropriate place to start getting turned on, but it isn’t my fault when my body has been neglected for this long and the object of every one of my desires is the person hitting every nerve possible with his strong hands.
“You ready to go, babe?” Trigger asks, clearing his throat.
“Yes,” I reply immediately.
I try to push off the couch, but get stuck. Trigger chuckles at me until I fix a glare on him. He smiles his megawatt smile at me, which makes it hard to stay annoyed with him as he helps me up. Henry jumps right off the couch, settling by my feet, wagging his tail.
“Bye to you too, asshole!” Tiny calls out behind us, everyone laughing after us.
Once settled back in the SUV, I’m happy to finally be going home. Yes I am dog tired, but my body is on fire just from the simple touches Trigger ignited.
“Are you finally going to touch me?” I ask in a hushed tone.
Trigger groans, his knuckles turning white as he grips the steering wheel.
“Well?”
“Red…” He shakes his head, clearly trying to change the subject.
“No. Why haven’t you touched me?”
“I touch you all the time!” he states soberly.
“I want you to have sex with me!” I cry. “Are you not attracted to me? Does the thought of being with me disgust you because of what happened to me?”
Trigger whips his head in my direction briefly before looking back to the road in front of us. “What? How could you think that, Heather?”
“Well, you’re making it pretty hard to not think that way!” I pout, crossing my arms over my chest, resting them on my large belly.
