Page 103 of Pick Me

“What’s wrong?” she asked, squeezing my hand, then kissing the tip of my nose. It was cute, and I never thought I’d be into all that obnoxious couple shit, but apparently, Thea brought that out of me.

I shrugged, holding firm with her in my arms as people shuffled past us, knocking into me. “I’m just sad I won’t get to sleep with you tonight.”

She shook her head, a frown marring that beautiful face of hers. “I’m sorry.” She didn’t seem too sorry about it.

“Sucks to be me, I guess.”

She let out a laugh and rested her head on my shoulder. “Please. You’re acting like this is the biggest sacrifice you’ve ever had to make.”

My brows rose as I thought about my empty, cold bed. “It is. You don’t know how hard it is. Not just my dick, but the idea there will be a wall separating us, and I’ll have no way to get to you.”

“It’s one night. I’ve only slept in your bed twice before.”

“And those two nights I had the best sleep of my life. Face it, Pyro, you’re meant to be in my bed.”

She rolled her eyes. “We’ll tell him tomorrow. Once he and Aster have straightened things out.”

“How can you be so sure that’s going to happen? He asked her to marry him, which even I think is nuts.”

She lifted her head from my chest with wide eyes. “You can’t be serious, can you? He didn’t ask her to marry him. She found the ring.”

“That he was going to use to propose. Same thing.”

“No, it’s not. Having the ring shows intent. Asking is a completely different thing, and once she realizes that, they’ll be able to talk through everything.”

“If you say so.”

“Come on.” Thea tilted her head before pulling me off the dance floor.

“Where are you taking me, Pyro? Do you know of any empty coat closets we can fuck in?”

She stopped in her tracks and looked at me from over her shoulder with disdain. Oh, hey, it was almost like old times. “Again? You’re going to bring up fucking me yet again?”

I shrugged, throwing her a grin that usually got me out of trouble. “Can’t help it. I’ve felt your tight little pussy clenching around my cock, and I can’t get enough.”

She sighed and continued to drag me out of the club. It was much quieter outside, so I took charge. She yelped when I changed direction, pulling her around the side of the building. Luckily, the dumpsters were farther down the alley, so there was only the slightest smell of trash lingering in the air.

“What are we doing here?” she asked as I leaned against the brick wall, pulling her into me. She was settled between my thighs, and I answered with a kiss. No words. Just one hard kiss full of intention. My tongue played with hers, and when she moaned into my mouth, my pants tented. Fuck. I wanted her so badly. Almost more since I wouldn’t be able to have her tonight.

I rolled us over so she was leaning against the wall, and pushed my erection into her center, knowing the thin fabric of her dress wouldn’t be enough to stop her feeling me. “Jackson,” she groaned out, her head falling back.

With how quiet the area was, I played with the hem of her skirt and considered fucking her here. She shivered when my fingers skated across her thighs, and gasped when I dipped my hands under.

Soaking wet panties.

All for me. Fucking, Pyro.

“You’re so wet for me, P.” I danced my fingers across her panties to get a feel for how wet she was without dipping my fingers under. Not just yet. I wanted to tease her a little bit more before that.

Thea’s fingers dug into my jacket, reminding me I hadn’t been a gentleman and offered her mine when we left. I’d do it once we finished here since I had a better way of warming her up in my mind.

My name slipped past her lips again, and I’d never tire of hearing how sexy it was. Her hips bucked against my hand, her legs widening. Well, if that wasn’t a hint she wanted more, then I didn’t know what was.

I pushed her panties to the side and plunged my fingers inside her before she had time to take another breath.

“Oh my—”

Thea’s lips parted, but nothing came out as I fucked her with my fingers at an unrelenting pace. There was no time to be leisurely. Not when anyone could walk by. Her pussy was so wet she was dripping down my wrist. Fuck. I wished I could see and taste the arousal I’d caused, but even I knew that was too risky in this setting.
