She steps back. “Don’t tell me I’m overreacting. Men just go around sticking their dicks in everything and they never stop to think about the consequences.”
“That isnottrue at all. I can’t believe you would say something like that.”
She gives me an exasperated look, “I thought if I said somethingsuper feministit would turn you off.”
“It’s not working, I still want to kiss you again.”
She sighs, “Me too.”
I step forward again and she puts her hands up.
“Nick, please. My life just went from zero to fucking complicated in less than twenty-four hours. I need some time to figure things out, okay? Can you give me that?”
Damnit. Fine.I step back.
“Don’t look at me like that!”
“Like what?”
“Like a sad puppy! I’m not saying I don’t care about you. I do. I just need some time and space.”
I can’t help the smirk that crosses my face, “Put those together and you can make a continuum.”
She shakes her head and smiles, comes to me,reaches up and pulls my face down to hers, gently kissing me on the lips.I grab her and kiss her hard…and she lets me…but then pulls away suddenly and slaps me with an open hand on my forehead.
“Stop it!”
She turns to the shelf and hurriedly grabs some items. I’m not even sure if she knows what she’s taking.
She shoves them at me, “Here, hold these.”
We get to the counter and Mrs. Barry gives us the same disproving glare our high-school librarian used to give people who made out in the section with the old books that noone ever checked out.
I almost want to laugh.
I pay for the things Lara gave me to carry and follow her out. She’s too quiet.
I crack a joke to put her at ease, “Well, we’ll always haveSheet Street.”
It works…and she laughs.I want her so bad.
Now, I’m going grocery shopping with a fucking boner. What a way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
Chapter Seven
Lara
Nick is a total sweetheart as we do our grocery shopping. Those intense moments we shared atSheet Streetleft me more than a littlehot and bothered…so it was nice that he wasn’t dwelling on it.
I asked him not to force me and he didn’t.
We moved on and pretended we were the people from twenty-four hours ago.
I really appreciated it because there was a party going on between my legs!
Ireallywant him! I can almostfeelmyself rolling around with him naked…licking his muscles.
That grumpy old lady was a godsend!
