No, I couldn’t ask that.
Sebastian moves closer, his hand brushing away a wet strand of my hair. His fingers are warm, making me shiver.
He lets out a soft chuckle, completely aware of the effect he has on me.
“I’m not coming inside because if I did, I’d have you naked and under me in five seconds flat.”
“And why is that such a bad idea?” I ask, the annoyance clear in my voice.
“Because your first time shouldn’t be when you’re drunk. I don’t want you to wake up tomorrow with a hangover and regret what happened.”
“I won’t regret it.”
There was no way I’d ever regret him. I wasn’t delusional. I knew that there was no future for Sebastian and me. We lived in two completely different worlds, but we have now. For a fraction of a second, our worlds collided, and I’d take this chance that I got no matter how short-lived it was.
Unable to resist it, I lift on the tips of my toes, my arms sliding around his neck and pulling him to me. I nip playfully at his lips as my fingers slide through his wet hair, feeling the silky texture under my fingertips until he lets out a soft groan, his lips parting.
My tongue slides into his mouth, tangling with his.
Sebastian’s fingers cup my cheeks as he breaks the kiss, his breathing ragged.
“Little minx,” he mutters, pressing his mouth against my forehead before taking a step back. “Tomorrow, Birdy. Kiss me tomorrow, and I’ll give you everything you want.”
Gently, he disentangles from my arms and steps out of my reach.
“Lock the door.”
Sinking my teeth into my lower lip, I nod. We stay like that for a little while longer before I finally close the door behind me and turn the key. Then I listen intently until I hear him disappear into his apartment across the hall.
Pressing my back against the door, I lift my hand and trace the tip of my finger over my lips. I can still feel them tingle from his kiss as Sebastian’s words echo in my head.
Tomorrow, Birdy. Kiss me tomorrow, and I’ll give you everything you want.
CHAPTERTWENTY-FOUR
PENELOPE
One thing I wasn’t prepared for?
Waking up with a raging headache.
I let out a loud groan, pressing my hand against my face and rubbing at my temples, but the insistent pounding continues mercilessly.
“What the hell happened last night?” I mutter as the bed shifts, and Henry nudges my arm with his snout. I move my hand, scratching his nose. “Do you know what happened, Henry?”
The dog lets out a happy sigh but otherwise stays quiet.
I remembered meeting with the girls and going out to a party that some of the football team threw. The incident when I tried flirting with that guy. Meeting Enrique and playing beer pong, only not with beer, but something stronger. After that, my memory has turned blurry. I was pretty sure I lost the beer pong game, but…
Arms wrapped around me.
The scent of pine and sandalwood.
The rain falling over me as hard lips pressed against mine.
Sebastian’s husky voice as he whispered into my ear.
Tomorrow, Birdy. Kiss me tomorrow, and I’ll give you everything you want.
