Page 71 of Love Like This

“Not me.” Hadley shook her head. “I was just using my imagination.Trying to help alleviate yours.”

“Sure you were.” Spencer exhaled slowly. “Your imagination.”

Hadley nodded. “And let me tell you, it is going to delicious andunexpected places. I think you’d enjoy them.”

Spencer gripped the steering wheel that much harder. Eyes firmlyon the road. Aching ignored. “Tell me.”

“I feel like being taken tonight. Do you think you can do that?”Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Hadley trail a finger down her neck asshe asked the question.

Spencer nodded. “I remember the first time I wanted to do thatvery thing. Visualized it even. At Notes, the jazz club I took you to.”

“That was a good night. I wanted you then, too, but was too scaredto do much about it. Where would you have touched first that night? If we had.”

“Your breasts. Definitely.”

“With your hands?”

“Yes, at first. Then my mouth.”

“You know what I think?”

“I have ideas.”

“We need to go back to that jazz club now that we’re acquainted.”

Spencer laughed, which broke some of the tension, but not forlong. Realizing how much fun she had with Hadley, how she kept Spencer guessingand on her toes, it just made her hot all over again.

They arrived in front of her complex at long last. Mr. Wannamaker,her kindhearted upstairs neighbor, sat on his balcony looking out. She didn’tknow if he could see them. She didn’t care. The second she put the car in park,she leaned across the console and crushed her mouth to Hadley’s, who moanedquietly, matching her intensity. Hands were moving in a flurry of desperation.Hers to Hadley’s breasts. Hadley’s to the back of her neck, where she held herin place and lightly sucked on Spencer’s tongue that was firmly in her mouth.Spencer readjusted, slamming her shoulder into the steering wheel. “Ow,” shemumbled. Hadley leaned across the center console but took the gearshift to theside of her ribs in the process.

“Yikes,” she yelped. She refocused, shifted a knee beneath her,and pulled Spencer forward by her shirt for another wild kiss. As they crashedback against the passenger side door in a painful tumble, Spencer sucked inair.

“This car is too damn small. Why didn’t I buy an SUV?”

“You’ll know for next time,” Hadley said, breathless. Undeterred,they separated and exited the car from opposite sides only to come togetheragain in front of the vehicle, all hands and mouths and passion on unabasheddisplay. “Inside,” Hadley whispered through their kissing. “Now.”

They tried to enter the building like respectable humans andbackpedal from the show they just gave unsuspecting Mr. Wannamaker, but theirefforts were fruitless. They took breaks on the way to Spencer’s door to kissand grope and lose themselves in the overwhelming gratification. Spencer kissedHadley up against the door to her apartment, smiling as Hadley gently bit hertongue, all the while fumbling to unlock the damn door. “You’re turning into abiter,” she murmured happily.

“Is that a problem?” Hadley asked.

“Hell no.” She glanced to her left at the sound of shuffling.

“You okay down there, Spencer?” Mr. Wannamaker yelled.

They froze, and stared at each other, eyes wide. Hadley broke intoa giggle. Spencer grinned and covered her mouth. Finally, “We’re fine! Sorryabout that, sir.”

“Just making sure no one got hurt,” he yelled back. “Tricky kidsaren’t watching where they’re going,” she heard him mumble.

In that moment, the apartment door gave in to the click of the keyand fell open behind Hadley. They spilled into Spencer’s living room, stumblingto find their footing. Hadley failed and crashed onto the floor in a fit oflaughter. Spencer joined her there, the whole thing just too ridiculous. “We’renot good at car sex,” Spencer finally managed. “Now we know.”

“The worst!” Hadley couldn’t stop laughing. “That poor guy wasprobably so confused and then maybe alarmed.”

“It’s the most action he’s seen in weeks, I’m sure. Clumsy or not.”

Spencer crawled over to Hadley and looked down on her. “Can I saythat you look just as good on this floor as you do in any car?” Hadley pulledSpencer to her so she was fully on top. She let her weight settle, knowing howmuch Hadley liked it. Her eyes fluttered and she shifted her hips to fitagainst Spencer more snugly.

“Maybe we’re good at floor sex,” Hadley offered with an innocentblink. “We honestly don’t know.”

“I hate not knowing things,” Spencer said, kissing Hadley.Savoring it.
