“Sounds like fun, what are we wagering?” He waggled his eyebrows at me suggestively.
“You’re a goof.”
Braxton laughed.
I had to think about my end of this deal for a minute because I needed it to be good, in case I won. Although, I didn’t think I stood a chance with the size and strength Braxton had over me.
“Okay, if I win then you come volunteer one day next week atHopeful Jurnee.”
“Done, and if I beat you then you let me take you to lunch one day this next week, plus you go out with me again next weekend.”
Well damn, sounded like I had won either way. I couldn’t help the smile that split my face because it was as if I just won the lottery. “Shake on it,” I said, sticking out my hand. Instead of taking it, Braxton wrapped his hand around the chain of my swing and slowly pulled me to him.
“How about we seal the deal with a kiss?”
Good idea. Who was I to deny myself another kiss? He leaned around my chain and with the soft glow of moonlight surrounding us, he sealed the deal. He let go of my swing gently, then I was back in my own space and ready to go.
“I’m ready, but you do realize I win either way, right?”
“So do I Jurnee, so do I. Being with you is the best prize ever and doing that at the place you love, or alone with you on another date counts as a plus in my book.”
Wow, I think I just fell head over heels...
I peeked at his face and grinned. “You mean that, don’t you?” I knew he did but asked anyway.
“You bet I do. Let’s do this.”
We both started pumping our legs. Higher, higher, higher we went, and on the count of three we jumped, both flying through the air. I think he held back for sure, probably just to softly land on me. With a tuck and roll, he was hovering me, staring into my eyes.
“Are you hurt? That was not good for your arm.”
“Truthfully, it didn’t feel that great on my shoulder the way we landed, but I wouldn’t have missed this moment for the world, so I will be fine.”
“I shouldn’t have let you do it,” he said, a worried look on his face.
“Braxton, I wanted to. Let it go, I’m fine.” I didn’t want him pulling back, I wanted him to go full force ahead.
“If you're sure. I do think it was a tie, so we should just do it all. Deal?”
I nodded my agreement and then Braxton’s lips slammed down on mine.
I will gladly keep making deals if this is how we make them official.
Chapter Thirteen
Braxton
I knewI shouldn’t have been so aggressive, but she drove me wild. Laying there looking into her eyes, our shared laughter, tangled breaths, and her delicious scent filling my nostrils, made me crazy out of my mind. Containing how this girl affected me was impossible. Things may be moving fast, at least on my side, but I didn’t want to waste time when I knew what I wanted.
What I need. It’s her, all her.
I pulled my lips from hers and pushed up on my arms a fraction so I could peer into her sweet intense brown orbs. They had small flakes of gold that sparkled and lit up with emotion. I realized then what I was looking at.
Forever. I could see forever in her eyes.
