“What’s the matter?” He smirks because he knows. The bastard.
“I can’t walk,” I say. “My legs are Jell-O.”
He lifts his hips against me, and I moan at the friction where my dress rubs against my sensitive skin.
“Until you can’t walk,” he reminds me.
“I bet I could still walk,” I tease.
“We’ll see about that.”
Chapter Nine
GARRETT
I tighten my hold on Mia and surge up off the floor. Even lacking my tie, my tux feels like it’s suffocating me.
“Don’t drop me.” Her fingers grip my shoulders while her legs lock around my hips.
I’m taking the stairs fast—two at a time—so I can understand her concerns. What she doesn’t know? How important she is to me, how I would do anything in my power to keep her safe and comfortable. That I’ve had feelings beyond friendship for her for years.
But those words aren’t coming out tonight. I don’t want to scare her off.
“Don’t you trust me?” I tease her, keeping the moment light even though the gravity of what we’re doing weighs on me.
She lifts her chin and brushes a chaste kiss along my jaw.
“Of course. I just didn’t want you to get distracted.” Her lips move down my neck.
“Distraction indeed,” I huff, flexing my hands against her silk-covered ass.
The impression of a zipper is probably imprinted on my cock, considering how long it’s been pressed against the metal. Her lips trail to my ear, her tongue dipping to rim the inside. Thank god we’re up the stairs finally. I turn, pressing her against the wall outside of her bedroom.
“Be careful what you start, Ames,” I warn.
“Oh yeah?” Her eyes are alight with mischief when she leans back.
Grinding my pelvis against hers, I lean down, nipping sharply at the tendon between her neck and shoulder. Fuck, she tastes amazing. Everywhere.
She shifts her hips forward, seeking more friction, and we’re both frustrated by the dress that continues to get in the way.
“Garrett.”
I never thought I’d hear my name fall from her lips the way it is right now. The desperate edge feeds my own desire. I need us both naked. Right the fuck now.
I find her ass again with both my hands and step into her bedroom, only stopping when we reach her bed. Dropping first one hand and then the other, I let her slowly slide down my body, rubbing against my dick that can’t possibly get any harder.
Her eyes widen, her breath coming in quick pants as she stares at me. It’s like she’s seeing me for the first time. In a way, maybe she is. And this is my chance to show her how right we can be for each other.
“Take your dress off.”
She arches an eyebrow, and I mimic the gesture.
“What if I need help?” she asks cheekily.
I step closer, pressing against her from chest to thighs, and am rewarded by her quick intake of breath.
“If you need help out of it, then you would have needed help into it. And since I didn’t zip anything up, I doubt you need me to unzip. If I do, I’m not sure that zipper will survive. And I really like that dress.”
