Then there’s silence. I listen to her breaths until they even out and I know she’s asleep. I consider getting up then, but I don’t want to wake her.

Just a little while longer.

I tell myself as I let myself drift to the comforting sounds of her breathing.

Everything wasn’t perfectwith us, but Xavier and I had taken a step in the right direction.

There are times when I still feel like I’m walking on eggshells around him when it comes to Tinsley, but that’s my issue, not his.

I need to come to terms with my own feelings and learn to move on from them. Tinsley isn’t a threat to me.

Xavier made that clear when he chose me over her.

“Adra, my beautiful girlfriend. What are you doing?”

I smile as I feel his breath fan across my face.

“What does it look like I’m doing?” I whisper.

He glances down at my book before pressing a kiss to my cheek. “Haven’t you studied enough? Come on. Come play with me.”

I look up at him, rolling my eyes, but I know I’m not going to deny him.

I can’t help it. Whenever he’s near me, I want to be as close as I can to him. I feel like I’ve become addicted to him. Addicted to the way he makes me feel. The way my blood sings whenever he touches me.

“Okay,” I whisper back.

That sexy smirk fills his face as he moves around me to pack my bag for me. I don’t even bother trying to help as I watch him. Once my bag is packed, he puts it over his shoulder, grabbing my hand.

He starts to half run through the library, making me giggle.

A chorus of “shhh” echoes out, making me slap my free hand over my mouth. Once outside, he pulls me down the steps and to the side of the building.

Then he presses me into the wall, his lips crashing to mine.

He wastes no time opening his mouth to me, so I take what he is giving me, losing myself in the feeling of him. His hands come up, cupping my face as he presses even closer, a small bite from the brick wall behind me pressing into my head.

Once I’m completely breathless, he finally pulls back, his own breath coming out in a pant.

“What was that for?” I manage to get out.

“I fucking missed you.” He grabs my hand pressing it to his hard dick. “I need you, Adra.”

I squeeze him, a moan slipping from his lips causing a rush of heat to rush to my pussy. I can feel myself clench around the empty space, begging for his dick to be there.

I glance around, seeing that where we are is shadowed in darkness. I have no idea what time it is, but the sun must have set hours ago, the activity on campus dying down. Not a single person mills about.

Feeling brave, I unbutton his pants. He reaches down to stop me, but I shake my head.

“I need you inside of me right now, Avi.”

“People might see,” he warns.

I smile. “Isn’t it exhilarating? The thought of getting caught.”
