Jackson: In a car with a colleague? Not happening.
Ariel: How about in code?
Jackson: ??
Ariel: DYLMK = did you like my kiss?
No reply came. I paced the room.
Then my phone rang. I jumped a mile.
But not with his name on my screen—it was Bridgette’s mother. I had all my students’ contact details recorded in case of emergency. If I was going to get a second demand for money from that family for deleting the video that had got me into this mess, I probably wouldn’t be polite about it.
I left the call to ring out. The moment it did, it rang once more, her again. This time, I walked away and made a drink.
When I returned, I had a voicemail from the woman lurking.
But also a reply from Jackson.
I greedily grabbed up my phone.
Jackson: Y,ILYK. NIWYOYKFM.
God, he was playing the game. Fresh excitement shot through me. I scrambled to work out his coded meaning.
Y,ILYK.
Yes, I liked your kiss? I fist pumped the air. That first part had been easy. Onto the second. Handily, he’d given me the sentence divide.
NIW …Now I want, ornext I want?
Y had to beyou.
OYoff your?Ooh,on your?
I summarised, trying to work out the ending.
Yes, I liked your kiss. Next I want you on your…
KFM.
What the hell was the K? FM had to befor me.Surely.
The answer came to me in a rush of heat. It was part of the list I’d sent him. One of the two top items I’d left unblurred.Knees.
Yes, I liked your kiss. Next I want you on your knees for me.
The quiet room spun. My mind summoned the picture of his hard dick ready for my mouth. Of his hiss of breath when I took him in, working out how to lick or suck him until he groaned.God.I was getting hooked on these tiny exchanges. It was like balancing at the peak of a snowy slope, the fresh powder pristine, untouched by anyone else.
I stifled a laugh at my comparison. I was the untouched snow, and he was waiting to take me on. Carve his mark.
My blood warmed all the more. We weren’t going to do anything together, beyond flirting, but it was the most fun I’d had in forever. I sent him a quick answer,If only you hadn’t turned me down, my heart racing. Palms sweaty.
Then a thought popped into my head.
A memory from when Viola had been on the phone at my party.
She’d searched for Jackson’s name and found out something about him.
