Hank: I miss you too.
I closed my little burner phone with a snap, then rushedinto the bathroom. Javier kissed me when I got back to our table, but my mind was elsewhere.
Mentally, I shook myself. It was too early to start making plans on how to sweet-talk Hank into visiting me. First of all, he couldn’t really leave his mom. And second, he wouldn’t want to lead that damn stalker straight to me.
“Are you okay?” Amber said softly next to me, when Javier had walked inside to the restrooms.
“Had a little news from home. They caught two of the three guys that blew up my parents’ house. One is still out there.”
She gripped my arm, her body rigid as she took a big breath in and out. “They’ll find him,” she said.
Nodding and smiling, I tried to refocus on the moment. We all piled into the minibus and headed back to the pool house. Javier spent most of the drive texting, frowning, while I sat on his lap and chatted with Amber. I had a feeling he’d have to get going in the morning.
Back at the house, Amber said goodnight to go home and prepare for her week. She’d had enough people time, I thought, and needed to relax. Everyone else went to the backyard and into the pool. Javier kept me in the kitchen, kissing me while I sat up on the counter.
He pulled away, staring down at me, his hands running up and down my sides. “These people want me to go, Bella.” He sighed. “I am a checkmark on their list, and they cannot relax until I am there waiting with all their other equipment.”
“When’s your flight?”
He put his forehead against mine. “I will fly from Portland in the afternoon. Will you not miss me, Bella?”
I smiled and cupped his face. “I’ll miss you more than you miss me.”
He kissed me passionately. “Not true. You were ready to forget me.”
“How could I ever forget you? The best masseuse I’ve ever met.”
“We have hardly done any massage, Bella.”
“Okay, fine. You are the best beast I’ve ever had. There, are you happy now?”
In answer he picked me up and carried me into the still empty upstairs family room. “We will be in here now,” Javier said. “Take off your dress while I am gone.” He sat me down then walked out.
I turned off all the lights upstairs. The sun was setting outside. The family room was the prettiest room in the house with light wooden beams arching across its high ceiling, a stone fireplace, and all the windows looking down on the pool and out toward the wooded hills. In the corner of the room not visible from the kitchen, I shimmied out of my dress then sat on the smooth hardwood floor.
He came in with a bundle of blankets and pillows from my bed and a tube of lotion. “Very good, my Bella,” he purred. I rolled my eyes. “For this we will do massage now.” He tossed condoms onto the floor then peeled off his clothes.
When he sat on the floor, I straddled him, still wearing my thong and strapless bra. We rubbed lotion onto each other’s backs, grinding as he kissed my neck. I put a condom on him, before we got carried away. Then we were both gone, into our bodies, in that dim corner of the big room, muffling our gasps into each other’s shoulders. After I came the first time, we rolled so my back was on the ground. He raised my legs up and I lifted them higher until they were over his shoulders. The deeper thrust nailed my G-spot, and I was building again, shuddering, covering my mouth. He shook above me, his head thrown back.
People stomped up the stairs, turning on lights. We dove for the blanket and wrapped ourselves up together inside it like a burrito. I don’t think anyone noticed us even thoughJavier didn’t stop kissing me until we had to stick our heads out for air.
Two of Layla’s friends stayed in the kitchen, gossiping about Dillan and Rubin, while Javier switched to massaging my body.
“He’s, like, so hard to read,” Gemma said. “I’m into it.”
Naomi sighed. “Not me. Do you think he wants you to chase him around?”
“No…but, like, maybe sit on his lap?” Gemma giggled.
“Did you hear that?”
“What?”
“I don’t know. Let’s go and find those guys.”
As they walked down the stairs, Javier was nudging into me, doggie-style. He reached around to rub me until I was squirming then lost himself in slapping our bodies together.
After that, I moved us to the bedroom to shower. Also, I was getting a little sore and exhausted. We didn’t sleep much, his clever hands working me back into arousal over and over again as the clock ticked down.
