Nodding, I swallowed the thickness present in my throat. Jesus, he was intense. Adorable, definitely, but why did he have to look at me like that? Curious eyes with a whole lot of warmth that sent my heart into a frenzy.
“I…I want…I mean, you don’t have to, but…God.” I slung an arm over my face and groaned at the jumble of words that flew out of my mouth haphazardly. I couldn’t even get my question out because I was so damn nervous. I wanted to sink into the bed and disappear.
With the little dignity I had left, I started to turn away from him, but he quickly stopped me with his hand on my waist.
“Blue? What’s wrong?” He questioned worriedly.
All I ever do is worry this poor man…
On an exhale, I slowly removed the arm from over my eyes and faced Hayes. There was no way he was going to let this go, and I knew I just needed to blurt it out. I had to, or else I’d regret it.
Just think of what Kate would tell you.
Time to overcome your fears.
You’ll get a good orgasm out of it if you do.
Oh my god, even in my mind, Kate was the same.
“I’m losin’ my mind over here, Blue…” He half chuckled, but deep down, I could sense the apprehension in his handsome face. His anxious palms rubbed along my hip bone in soothing strokes. His gentle motions were telling me it was okay. That I was okay, and I became lost in his touch.
So much that I sighed in contentment.
“Will you touch me?”
It came out without warning, and the second it did, my eyes doubled in size. More like tripled, but as I stared, waiting for his response, I only received a grin in return.
“I am touching you.” He chuckled.
Oh god.
“That’s… that’s not what I mean, Hayes.” I groaned and slowly lifted my hand until I was palming his damp cheek. “I want you to touch me, touch me. Down there. Everywhere. I want you to make me feel good.”
He froze. Like a statue, his whole body went solid, and his hand stopped its slow, agonizing rubs. His eyes had widened, his chest was now huffing, and he scaled his watchful gaze down my body until I removed my hand from his face and caused him to snap his attention back up.
“You… you don’t have to, Hayes. I get it if you…”
“Stop talking, Blue.” He interrupted, causing a flash of hurt to hit me. “Just stop.”
“But…”
“If I don’t want to, what? Touch you? You don’t think I’ve been dying to put my hands all over you? Fucking taste you?” He demanded as his brows dipped and his jaw tightened.
“I didn’t think…”
Snatching my chin with soft fingers, he tilted my head upward, exposing my bobbing throat, currently contracting with nerves. I was trapped in the seriousness of his gaze. Filled with a heat I hadn’t seen before, my body hummed from the intensity of it.
“Well, you thought wrong, Blue. I’ve wanted you since the day that flimsy ass towel fell off your perfect little body.” His voice lowered, and his eyes dropped down to my heaving chest. “I still remember every fucking detail of you.”
“Hayes…” I whimpered as my hips lightly shot upward.
“Your soft pink, perfect little nipples.” He whispered with a groan, and his hand slowly fell from my chin and danced across my throat. “Imagine seeing the tastiest fucking dessert out there and it suddenly being taken away before you could have a taste. That’s what it felt like when I saw you.”
Oh my god.
Hayes Decker had a filthy mouth.
And I loved it.
