“In about twenty minutes. Let’s have breakfast together.”

“Sounds good. See you soon.”

I end the call before Jane can say bye, but only because Jackson is moving faster now, and the mattress is squeaking.

“You’re terrible.” I tell him.

“You called me a jackass.”

“I’m supposed to hate you.”

He pinches my chin and turns my face to him. “Hate fucks are the best.”

“Yes… yes they are.”

He claims my lips, kissing me deeply while pounding into me. Not surprisingly, he makes me come again before he climaxes himself. If he’s trying to break some kind of record, I volunteer as a tribute.

JACKSON

I miss getting caught leaving Izzie’s room by a few seconds. I stayed too long, and as I’m about to round the corner, I hear the ping of the elevator, and then Jane’s and Chad’s voices in the hallway. There’s no denying what I’ve been up too. I’m only wearing pants, and I’m carrying my shoes and shirt in my hands. I hurry to my room, and no sooner do I close the door than my phone rings. It’s Chad.

Damn. A second earlier, and he’d have heard it from the hallway.

“Hey.”

“Don’t hey me. Why is Izzie saying you were a jackass?”

I pinch the bridge of my nose. Why did Izzie have to tell her sister that?

“No clue.”

“Yeah, right. Come on, Jacks. Is it because she shot you down?”

“Don’t remind me.”

He sighs, exasperated. “You’re an idiot. Why do you think she came earlier?”

I smirk, thinking about what went down in my bedroom. “To harass me?”

“No, dumbass. She likes you, and I’m starting to wonder why.”

I want to laugh. Chad calling me a dumbass is too funny. But I have to swallow my amusement. “Did you call to yell at me? I just woke up and haven’t had coffee yet.”

“Come have breakfast with us then. We’re meeting in the lobby in ten minutes.”

“I’m gonna need more than ten minutes.”

And I’m fairly certain Izzie needs the extra time too.

“Fine. Fifteen then. And you’d better be nice to Izzie.”

“I’ll be on my best behavior as long as she is.”

“You’re both acting like children. See you soon.”

“See ya.”
