Jessica looked down at her clothes. “What’s wrong with what I’m wearing now?”

Vini looked her up and down, trying her hardest not to let her gaze linger more than necessary. “Nothing, if you were relaxing at a café. But when you’re working in the shop, you can’t have anything loose or dangling. That includes jewelry, clothing and hair.”

“I didn’t bring anything else with me,” Jessica replied. “Should I head back and grab something different to put on?”

She probably should have saidyesif only to give herself more time to handle the fact that she was going to be spending more time with Jessica than she had planned. It wasn’t unwelcome. Far from it. She just needed more time to prepare. Imagine her shock when her mouth answered for her. “No. I have some clothes in here that should fit you.”

Vini opened the small closet before she lost her nerve, grabbing a clean shirt and pair of pants. The pants would probably be slightly short given their difference in height, but they would have to do.

“If you wanted to see me naked again, all you had to do was ask.”

Vini almost dropped the clothes at the sound of that voice whispered so close to her ear. A shiver ran through her, but she forced herself to turn slowly. She shouldn’t have been surprised at how close they were, and yet somehow she was. Jessica hadn’t waited before sliding her loose blouse over her head. Curls tumbled down over her shoulders, making Vini’s fingers itch to reach out and take hold.

“I didn’t bring you back here for this,” Vini replied truthfully forcing her gaze to stay locked on Jessica’s. Thankfully, the door behind Jessica was shut hiding them away from prying eyes. It also left her reeling at how much privacy they had. The room wasn’t soundproof, but they could be quiet. It might even be more fun to try. “I just didn’t want you to ruin your clothes or sue me when you got stuck in a car part.”

Jessica chuckled softly before taking a step forward. She reached out her hand. “Well, in that case, I’ll get dressed. Sorry for the misunderstanding.”

Vini looked down at the outstretched hand. She could pass the clothes to Jessica, and they could put this behind them, or she could take advantage of the privacy. Clearly, Jessica was open to another hookup between them.

Was Vini?

“Vin?” Jessica’s voice was soft and her expression open. There was no smirk on her face as she watched waiting for what Vini would do. “It’s really okay. I can get changed, and we can—”

Vini moved then, dropping the clothes so she could take Jessica’s face between the palms of her hands. That earnest expression and her own desire had done her in. She wanted this, and there was nothing else holding them back, so why not? Vini had always been so good, holding back and making sure everyone else was taken care of. It was her turn to have something she wanted, and right now, she wanted heated kisses and blunt nails digging into her skin.

Jessica’s lips were just as addicting as she remembered, and Vini fell into them with relish. She backed them up until she felt Jessica hit the door. When arms wrapped themselves around her waist, she groaned, letting her desire unfurl. The office was small enough that in moments the air was heated. Jessica’s hands gripped Vini’s back, pulling her in farther until there was no space between them. It was a wildness Vini had never experienced or imagined. Whenever she had thought about sex, she had pictured soft kisses and sweet giggles. This was all that and more. Teeth dug into her bottom lip, making Vini groan, and a tongue sought entrance into her mouth that she granted willingly.

“Should we be doing this in here?” Jessica whispered, her lips forming a smile against Vini’s as they sucked in air.

“Not at all,” Vini replied with a smile of her own showing how little she cared about that fact. “This is probably a really bad idea, but I don’t give a fuck.”

One of Jessica’s hands came up and cupped her cheek. Her eyes had gone dark as she looked down at Vini’s lips. Vini licked them, loving the burst of heat she could see in those mocha depths. A thumb traced her lips, and she didn’t hesitate to suck it in, letting her tongue bathe it with wet heat.

“Such a dirty mouth for such a pretty girl,” Jessica breathed out before leaning in to taste from Vini’s mouth again. Her words set Vini’s blood aflame, and she parted her lips readily.

Everything was slick and hot. Vini trailed her hands over Jessica’s shoulders gripping for a moment when Jessica’s tongue traced the sensitive roof of her mouth. When it toyed with her own, she carved her blunt nails down Jessica’s back, enjoying the moaning vibration her actions brought. She was about to move her hands to Jessica’s bra strap when a knock came from the other side of the door making them both freeze.

Jessica ground her teeth at the disturbance. Things had been progressing so nicely. She hadn’t shown up with the intention of being sandwiched between a door and Vini, but she wasn’t about to turn down the gift that was that deliciously petite frame pressed against hers. When the knock came again, she leaned her head back with a silent groan.

“Yeah?”

“Sorry to interrupt boss, but we have a code douche.”

She lifted her head up as a giggle lodged in her throat.Code douche?“What the fuck is a code douche?”

Vini glanced at her before shaking her head and stepping back. Cool air rushed between them, and Jessica had to fight hard against the desire to pull her back in. She didn’t want to seem too pushy, considering she hadn’t even planned for this in the first place. She stared as Vini smoothed her hands over her shirt and pants, hating the fact that she never got to see them come off.

“Means there’s someone asking for the master mechanic and refusing to listen to Aiden.”

“So basically they are asking for the manager.”

Vini glanced up at her lips stretching in a wide smile. “Pretty much. Aiden knows what he’s doing, but occasionally we have people who take one look at that damn baby face of his and try to go above his head. We both usually enjoy their reactions when they see me walk in.”

Jessica let that sink in as she reached down and picked up the borrowed shirt. She shrugged it on, letting it settle over her shoulders. “You mean they weren’t expecting a woman to come in?”

Vini snickered before reaching forward. Her fingers curled around Jessica’s ear, and Jessica froze as a wave of arousal so strong welled up threatening to pull her under. She had never been so thoroughly attuned to someone like this before. A simple touch like that shouldn’t have been enough to almost undo her resolve to not push, but damn did it come close.
