“That’s probably Jasmine.”

“Probably,” I grumbled, a little annoyed at the interruption. If I had it my way, we’d be staying in my bed all day exploring each other’s bodies.

Lux got up, searching for her clothes I’d peeled off and tossed haphazardly around my room. She put on her underwear, bra, and shorts—her shirt still missing in action—before she grabbed the phone and opened it. Her lips twitched into a smile as she read.

“Yup, Jasmine’s wondering if our epic boning session is over yet. She wants to go for breakfast.”

My stomach growled. “I could go for breakfast. Are you hungry?”

“Ravenous,” she replied, eyeing me as if I was the meal. The sheet covered my lower half, but it did little to hide the effect she had on me, not that I wanted to hide it.

I grinned, tossing the sheets off, and climbing out of bed, my cock standing at attention. Lux’s gaze dropped down, her eyes widening as she took me in. She licked her lips, making my cock jump as the blood surged.

“When do you have to go home?”

“I was supposed to go this afternoon, but technically, I don’t have a curfew,” Lux managed, finally lifting her eyes to mine. She had a devious twinkle in her eyes, like she was thinking the same thing I was.

Still stark naked, I moved towards her, my palms going to the smooth skin of her waist. Lux’s eyes dropped down to my length, and her hand reached out to grip it. She fisted it, pumping slowly as she ran her thumb across the tip. I closed my eyes, letting my forehead drop against hers. I couldn’t help but thrust into her hand a little.

“When we get back…” I paused, opening my eyes and arching a brow suggestively. Lux pumped me again, her smile growing, but before she could respond a knock sounded against my door.

“We’re heading out to breakfast in ten minutes, if you guys want to join.” Desmond said, his voice muffled through the thick door.

“Better get dressed, Theo,” Lux teased, releasing me and stepping away. She picked up her shirt, pulled it on, and rooted through her backpack for her toiletry bag. She opened the door a crack, checking to make sure the coast was clear before sending me a smile over her shoulder and leaving my room.

I dressed quickly in a pair of clean cargo shorts and a black t-shirt. I put on some deodorant and ran my hands through my hair to tame it before hiding it beneath my cap.

Lux was leaving the bathroom when I stepped out into the hallway. She’d brushed her hair and washed her face. She had forgone makeup and still, she looked radiant.

“God damn, you’re gorgeous,” I put my hand on the doorframe over her head, leaning in to capture her lips in a chaste kiss. I’d have delved into her mouth like the starved man I was, but the fear of my own morning breath held me back. I could taste the hint of mint on her lips, though.

Lux smiled at me prettily when I pulled away. “They’re going to leave without us if we don’t hurry.”

“She’s right, you know!” Desmond called from the kitchen area. I nodded, moving around Lux to brush my teeth quickly and take a piss.

When I finished in the bathroom, I found Desmond and Lux talking quietly and waiting in the front hall with their shoes on. I took one look at Lux in her shorts and thin t-shirt, then turned around. I went back to my room, opening the closet door and grabbing my Trent University sweater.

I returned, handing it to her, and she took it from me with a curious look on her face. “It’s going to be cold at the restaurant.”

“That’s so thoughtful of you,” Lux smiled, tugging it on over her head.

The three of us made our way outside to see that Talia and Jasmine were already waiting on the front porch. Jasmine’s car was still loaded up with camping gear, and Desmond’s truck was only a three-seater, so we took my car. I drove a Volkswagen Golf R. It wasn’t my dream car, but it got me around well enough.

Lux, Jasmine, and Talia slipped into the backseat and Desmond climbed into the passenger seat. I got behind the wheel, and we headed to our favourite restaurant on Lasalle.

Weekends and evenings were usually packed at Rudy’s. Everyone in town knew it was the best place to go for burgers. Their breakfast menu was great too, and the service was unbeatable, even when it was busy. Since it was a weekday and it was storming, there wasn’t much of a lineup.

When we walked in, a group was leaving so we scored a booth. Talia, Jasmine, and Lux squeezed into one side of the booth while Desmond and I sat across from them. I had the gorgeous view of Lux across from me, and she smiled when she caught me perusing her, tucking her hair behind her ear.

A moment later the waitress came by with a cloth to wipe the table down, five menus tucked under her arm, and a steaming pot of coffee. While she wiped down the table, another waitress arrived with five clean coffee mugs and a bowl of creamers, setting them down with a smile before scooting off to her next task.

“Well, if it isn’t some of my favourite regulars,” the waitress, who’s name tag read Bonnie, grinned, looking at us all. “And a fresh face! Welcome to Rudy’s!” she added, her welcoming gaze going to Lux.

“Thank you,” Lux murmured, her cheeks heating at the attention.

“Can I get you some coffee to start?” Bonnie asked her kindly. She was in her early sixties and had worked at Rudy’s for as long as I could remember. Bonnie had curly dark brown hair, always tossed up in a messy bun. She’d been serving us for years now and knew our order well, so while she waited for Lux to reply, she filled up four of the mugs with coffee.

“That sounds good,” Lux replied with a nod.
