Keeley raises her hands in the air, a drink in one of them, and starts swaying her body.Fuck. I can’t take my eyes off her as shemoves to the music. There is a joyful look on her face as she belts out the lyrics—something about stargazing.

Some members of our group drag their partners to the dance floor. Hannah grabs Jake and pulls him along despite his protests, leaving me and Keeley alone at the table. She continues to sway to the music, blissfully ignoring me.

I notice a group of guys watching us out of the corner of my eye. One of them takes a sip of his beer and heads towards our table, his friends laughing and goading him on.Over my dead body, my friend.

I slide an arm around Keeley’s waist and pull her to me so I can place my mouth next to her ear. “Dance with me,” I demand. For the first time this evening she looks at me. There is surprise in her eyes, there might be a little anger, but there is also something else, something I can't read.

“Are you sure you can dance with a customer?” she shouts back over the music with a twinkle in her eyes.

“Come on,” is my only reply. I shouldn’t really, but not dancing with her doesn’t sound like such an appealing option either.

I pull her with me and we find a gap in the sea of bodies somewhere near the middle of the dance floor. It's a fast-paced song, and we just move with the rhythm. I keep one hand on her hip the whole time, afraid the crowd will separate us. As the bodies around us shift Keeley moves closer and closer until there's hardly any space between us. We gradually drift to theleft, near the wall where there are fewer people and it’s darker, with hardly any spotlights reaching us.

When the song ends the crowd cheer, but the band seamlessly transitions into another belter. This one is slower. Keeley raises an eyebrow at me, and when I don’t pull away she steps even closer. She slides her arms around my neck and starts grinding her body against mine in rhythm with the song. Damn. Something snaps inside me. I place my hand on her round arse and pull her tight against me. I lower my face until my lips are only inches from hers. God, I want to kiss her. I want to kiss her so badly.

My dick is hardening and there’s no hiding it when she’s pressed against me this tightly. She gives me a little wink and then turns so her back is pressed against my chest and her bum is nestled against by cock. A hiss escapes me.

Keeley raises her arms and places one of them on the back of my head pulling me down to her until my face is nestled in the crook of her neck. Her delicious smell hits me and I can’t resist. I place an open mouth kiss on her exposed skin. In response, Keeley circles her hips, basically dry humping me in public.

When the music stops, I take a step back from her. I feel like I’m drunk. I’m drunk on her. Keeley faces me and I can see that she is breathing heavily.

“Thanks for the dance.”

“You’re welcome,” I reply. I don’t know what else to say.

“Can I have the next one?” The guy I tried to rescue her from has stepped up to us. Keeley takes a few seconds before she looks at him.

“I–” Her eyes find mine again.

“That’s okay, I have to head home anyway,” I mumble.Why? Why?!

“Oh, okay.” Keeley looks at me with sad eyes.Fuck, am I an arsehole or what?

“Looks like I'm free.” Keeley nods to the guy before giving me one last look. I turn and scan the room for Hannah. I see her in a corner laughing at something Jake is telling her.

“Hey, I’m leaving,” I interrupt them before placing a kiss on her cheek.

“What, why? You seemed to be having a good time,” she nods towards Keeley who is jumping to some rock song on the dance floor. Her locks bounce as she twirls.

“She’s a customer. No good can come from it.”

“Fuck, Ols. You have to stop always being the responsible one. Have fun sometimes.”

“I have to be. Someone has to take care of Mum,” I snap, drain the last of my pint and head for the door. I know that wasn’t fair but I can apologise tomorrow. Now I just need to get out.

My eyes drift to Keeley one more time. She is staring at me and the sadness is still there.Fuck.

I wipe the steam from the mirror with my fist and look at myself. A long hot shower is just what I needed.

“Arsehole,” I shout at myself. But am I really for putting my business first? Sure, I could have shagged her, and then what? Fellside has eyes and ears everywhere. I would be surprised if tonight doesn’t set off the gossip alarm. If I had slept with her and anyone found out, it would tarnish any publicity from her article. No, it’s too risky.

I step out of my clothes and climb into the shower. The hot water hits me in the face and for a second I forget all other thoughts. Then I see Keeley in my inner eye. Her curves, her smile, the twinkle in her eyes. The feel of her rubbing up against me. The taste of the skin on her neck. The thought alone has me hard again. I take the bottle of shower gel and squirt some in my palm. I lean back against the cool tiles, the spray of the water hitting my face and chest. My hand is slowly stroking my cock, and I’m imagining it’s Keeley’s soft hand. Up and down, up and down. I squeeze harder. I imagine kissing those plump lips before she drops to her knees and takes my dick in her mouth.

I groan and pump faster. I can feel the tightening in my balls and a familiar tingling at the base of my spine. Fuck, this feels good, but I know if it were the real thing, if Keeley were here with meand I could bury myself balls deep in her tight pussy, it would feel ten thousand times better. A deep growl erupts form my chest and I come all over the shower wall.

I take a few panting breaths before my racing heart slows down. My head drops back against the tiles.

“Fuck,” I scream out loud. I wish she’d never come into my life. But I also have to admit she’s the one person I never knew I needed, and I need her bad.
