“What’s wrong?” I choke out. “Rivers is my best friend. There are rules guys live by, and I just broke two of them in less than five minutes. And I would have broken another if I hadn’t asked how you got in here.” I drag my fingers through my hair and give it a yank as I pace the room. “Shit. He’s going to kill me.” Reaching for my pants, I pull them on and tuck myself inside, leaving the buttons undone.
Meanwhile, she remains in a kneeling position. Her hair is tousled a bit more from me burying my hands in those silky strands, and her nipples peek at me through the scrap of material covering them. I can feel her staring, and no matter how hard I fight it, I turn to face her. Her legs are slightly parted, and my eyes rake down her body, coming to rest on the juncture between her thighs. Fuck, is that moisture on her shorts? Suddenly, my hand is in my mouth, and I’m biting down hard on my fingers to keep from screaming.
“No, he won’t. He doesn’t have to know about this. It can be our little secret. Come back over here and join me.” She grins devilishly, revealing two beautiful dimples, and it’s all I can do to swallow the knot forming in my throat. Girls with dimples drive me absolutely wild, though this girl managed to do that all on her own. I can tell she’s turned on by the breathless sounds that fall past her perfect lips and her pert breasts rise and fall with each labored breath. Like an idiot, I remain rooted, unable to turn away. I stand there, my erection thickening, and stare as she slowly draws her hand between her legs and begins touching herself.
I practically choke on my next words as I fight for control over my own body. “Can you please stop doing that?”
“Why? Doesn’t this turn you on?” The devilish gleam in her eyes tells me she knows exactly how her little show is affecting me, both mentally and physically.
“Why?” My eyes squeeze shut and it’s all I can do not to scream as I answer her insane question. “Because your brother is an early riser and these walls are paper thin.” I stomp into the bathroom and close the door on the entire scene.
“That’s ridiculous,” she scoffs, and as if on cue I hear Rivers’ voice outside the outer door. I button my jeans as my mind scrambles for a way to talk myself out of this.
“Cass? You up yet?” he calls out, before knocking once and throwing open the door. This is his trademark entry. However, I don’t see what happens because I’ve made the decision to dive into the tub and feign sleep.
