It feels good, but it can’t happen. I have too much on my plate this season. I can’t lose focus.
Hockey. No girlfriends.
Just tonight to feel something real.
I run my hand up and down Lenny’s back. Touching her, getting a feel of what she wants.
“How come you didn’t come find me when you came in?” I ask the question that’s been gnawing at me all night.
Her eyes divert down, avoiding me.
“You looked busy.” She’s lying. There’s something else.
It’s something she’s not saying and I’m not going to push it.
I tip her chin up to look at me
“I’m never too busy for you,” I say gazing into her bright ice-blue eyes.
It’s corny. I usually have better game, but she’s really messing with my head.
I lean down to kiss her but stop just brushing her lips lightly.
“Is this ok?” I ask.
I don’t know how drunk she is. Or if this is even something she wants. It’s driving me nuts that I can’t read her.
I can read every play. I know exactly what an opponent is going to do. I know their every move as they come at me with a puck, but I can’t read her. I have no idea what’s going through Lenny’s head or what her next move will be.
She doesn’t answer. Instead, she closes the small gap between us and presses her lips onto mine.
Just like I remember.
Her scent, her taste, her kiss.
It’s all the same and everything I’ve been craving. The only difference is the hint of alcohol instead of the hint of fried diner food.
I undo her jacket and let it fall down her arms. Then quickly pull her wet shirt over her head.
Lenny tries to lift my shirt but I’m too tall for her.
I pull it up the rest of the way.
With my shirt over my head, I feel her tongue roaming over my abs.
That’s new.
I’m not expecting it, but damn it feels good.
Feeling a little thrown off, my shirt gets twisted around my hand. It takes me a second to get it off as it tangles around me. I am so off my game tonight.
Every moment with Lenny makes me feel off. She’s so different from my usual hookups, my usual flirting doesn’t work on her. She sees right through me.
She chuckles at my blunder but goes right back to kissing her way up my chest.
I have to shake it off and get my control back. Shake out any awkwardness and get back down to business.
I lift Lenny up and lay her on my bed moving my kiss from her mouth down to her chest. I reach behind her to unclasp her bra, but I can’t find it.
