“It’s been a long week. I don’t feel up to going to the bar tonight.”
Her eyes widen in surprise. “You don’t want to go to the bar?”
I shrug. “Not really.”
She swears under her breath before smiling. “Okay. Can you walk me there?”
“Walk you there? Winter Falls is the safest small town in America according to the gossip gals. You’ll be fine on your own.”
She plants her hands on her hips and her nostrils flare. “Can you at least pretend to be a gentleman tonight?”
I stalk toward her and she backs up until her legs hit the kitchen table. I plant my hands on the table to cage her in before leaning in close and running my nose along her neck to her ear. “Do you want me to be a gentleman?”
“M-m-maybe?”
“Or do you want me to throw you over my shoulder and carry you to the bedroom before I rip your clothes off?”
By the time I finish the question, she’s gasping for breath.
“Say yes and I’ll show you how not cranky my pants can be.”
She grasps my t-shirt in her hands and pulls me near as she lifts up on her toes. But before our lips can meet, her phone buzzes. She sighs before pushing me away.
“I can’t. I promised Harmony I’d meet her at the bar tonight.”
“Oh. A girls’ night out? That’ll be fun.”
“Yes, yes it will.” Her voice sounds strained and I have to cough to hide my smile.
I kiss her nose. “I’ll see you tomorrow.”
Before I can leave, she grabs my hand. “Walk me to the bar.”
She sounds desperate. I debate teasing her more but when I notice the sweat forming on her forehead, I give in. Teasing her is fun. Torturing her is not.
“Okay,” I say and her shoulders drop in relief.
By the time we arrive at the bar five minutes later, Eden’s bouncing with excitement. I whirl her around until she’s wrapped in my arms.
“Have a good night.”
Her nose scrunches. “Don’t you want to come in?”
“Nah. I’m tired.”
“But we haven’t had drunken sex yet,” she pouts.
My cock twitches. He’s ready for drunken sex with Eden. “I’ll leave my door unlocked for you. You can crawl into bed with me when you’re finished.”
The door opens behind us. “They’re here!” Brody shouts over his shoulder.
“What does he mean ‘they’re here’? Was he expecting both of us? I thought this was girls’ night out.”
Eden studies me for a minute before the confusion clears from her expression and she slaps my shoulder. “I can’t believe you. You’ve been torturing me when you knew about the surprise party all along.”
I shrug. I can’t deny it.
“Can you at least pretend to be surprised in there?”
