I wanted to kiss this man.

He was offering…so who the hell was I not to take it?

I’d be dumb not to…

I saw the moment he knew that I was going to kiss him.

His hand came up to cup my face, and all of a sudden, I was partially up on my knees in my seat and leaning over the armrest so that my face could reach Lock’s.

The fact that my father was watching this game from home and would probably see me kissing some strange man didn’t matter.

Also, the fact that I’d arrived with a different man than I was kissing didn’t matter.

What mattered in that moment was that I was kissing Lock, and he was the single best kiss I’d ever had in my life.

Well, if I were getting technical, I’d never kissed a man like this before.

Sure, I’d gotten pecks on the lips from a few boyfriends, and I’d even gotten a tongue kiss from a girl once.

But never a boy—no, a man.

Definitely never a man.

And definitely never like what Lock was giving me.

Cheers rose up all around me, and Lock finally pulled away, a grin on his face.

I stared at those lips that’d just been kissing mine, admired the beard that had tickled my chin and nose. Then I grinned right back at him.

For all of two seconds, because I was knocked to the ground in the next second.

When I looked up, it was to find Tad standing over my prone body with a knife in his hand and a look of death on his face.

“That’s my fuckin’ girl, asshole!” Tad bellowed. “My. Girl!”

“Dude, didn’t look like your girl when I was watching y’all,” came a man’s reply. “You were all talking to that other chick that had to move. When you propositioned her for sex but said you’d have to do it later after you dropped your date off, and she moved, that didn’t sound like the girl was ‘your girl.’”

I looked over, still on the ground, staring at the man that was behind me.

He was a big bear of a man.

Five-foot eleven or so.

Standing there, leaning over the chairs, looking like he was calm, cool and collected as he talked to Tad.

I, on the other hand, was nowhere near calm, cool or collected.

In fact, I was hyperventilating.

Also, I was lying in a pool of mustard and squished hot dog from some little kid that’d dropped it on the ground on his way to his seat.

So no, let’s just say I was not a happy camper at the current moment in time.

“Put the knife away,” Lock said, hands up slightly and his eyes locked on Tad. Watching his every move.

The game behind us had stopped.

There were now security guards all around us, but the crowd was so thick that they were having a hard time getting to Tad.
