"And maybe we can invite them over for dinner. Wouldn't that be nice?"
I lifted a brow. "Um, I'm not sure about that."
It would be awkward as hell having Lachlan and Saffron here, in Lock's flat, pretending it was my flat. Jasper and Kaya would be merciless in their teasing. But she looked so excited about it.
"Okay, I'll make a call and see if I can get everyone together."
"Excellent. What are we going to say? You know… how my father hired you to be my bodyguard. This is going to be completely awkward, right?"
I winced. But honestly, it was no more awkward than anything else I'd had to do in this farce of a double-cross.
"Okay, okay, okay. Let's do it. Let's have a dinner party."
She laughed and launched herself at me. And as I tugged her down back under the duvet, our lips fusing together before my fingers found her slick wetness and delved inside of her warmth, I knew I didn't want to leave this. I wanted this to be real and for a long time.
Nissa
"You slag."
I glanced around to make sure that Charlie, Westin's relief guard, hadn't heard Jamila.
"Would you keep your voice down?"
"Sorry, sorry. But still, you are sly. Tell me, how was it?"
I glanced around the class, but no one was minding us. Our Law Arguments class was so busy with everyone discussing their papers that were due today.
"What do you mean?"
"Please, I can see it on your face. You totally shagged him."
"Be quiet, Jamila," I hissed.
She giggled and then glanced around. "Sorry. Listen, I'm still not speaking to Adam, so your love life is the only entertainment I have right now."
"How exactly is it working with you living with him and not speaking with him?"
"Well, we derived a very handy way of communicating things in the flat using the blank board on the fridge. Like, 'take out trash' or 'call your mum,' just the basics, you know."
I groaned. "Oh my God, you guys have to work this out. You're my favorite couple. You can't break up."
"Honestly, I don't know what's happening, but I don't want to talk about that. I want to talk about this. My sheer and utter joy in you getting dicked down. Let's discuss details. Out with it woman!"
I laughed and covered my face with my hands. "I don't know. We had this thing with my dad. And something went down, and as usual my dad was at the center of it. So I was in my feelings. And for the first time since he’s come back, we talked, really talked. Feelings I’d buried came to the surface. One thing led to another and…” I let my voice trail off as I shrugged. “So I kissed him, again.”
"Again?"
"Yes. You know, after the break-in, we made out."
"Yes, but has there been more? You are making it sound like more. Are you holding out on me?"
I hadn't told her. "We have kissed a few more times."
"Oh my God, Nissa, this is news I needed to know!"
"I just... I didn't know what to make of it, what we were doing, but I had a bad dream, and you know, one thing led to another, and then we were totally hooking up in the kitchen."
She laughed and took a sip of her latte. "Oh my gosh, please remind me not to eat from your countertops."
