“It never happened.” She stepped sideways to try to go around me and slipped. I caught her and we both looked down. She’d slipped in my come. Her eyes flared wide and then narrowed. “That never happened, either.”
“Which part?”
“Well, you definitely didn’t come in me so I definitely didn’t slip on your jizz, Cole.” She sounded frantic. “I can’t believe we didn’t use a condom. I just broke all the rules. We were silly and we didn’t wrap your willy.”
I roughly tugged her into my chest. “I’m sorry. I mean… I’m not sorry I got to feel you bare but I am sorry I wasn’t safe with you. I’ve always worn condoms. I’m clean, Sav.”
“I’m on birth control. I’ve never… Jeez. I’ve never not used a condom, either.” She finally looked up at me, that panic eased. “I need to shower. Think I can do that without a surprise visitor this time?”
I patted her ass. “Of course. I for sure won’t be a surprise this time.”
She tried to hide a grin but it was too late. She’d shown her cards. She liked me and my stupid jokes.
***Savannah***
Slowly coming awake, I blinked my eyes open and my soul nearly left my body. I only managed to hold back a scream because I realized the man leaning over me was Jax. My heart still raced like I was about to be murdered, though.
I pushed his face away and groaned. “You scared me half to death! What are you doing?”
He crawled over me and sank into my bed behind me, pulling me into his chest to spoon me. There was something with the Carrington kids that made them amazing big spoons. I instantly melted into his embrace and calmed down.
“You were starting to wake up and I wanted to know the moment it was no longer creep behavior to crawl into your bed.” He nuzzled the back of my neck and groaned. “Cole and Ryder went to practice. I decided it’d be worth it to skip if it meant I got to do this.”
I stiffened slightly at the mention of Cole’s name but Jax was so busy kissing the back of my neck and shoulder that I couldn’t stay tense. I’d deal with the consequences of what I’d done later.For that moment I just wanted to be held by Jax. “I can’t believe the golden boy is skipping practice to cuddle.”
He grazed my skin with his teeth and grunted. “If you still think I’m the golden boy, I haven’t been doing enough to prove you wrong.”
My hips had a mind of their own and they wanted to be even closer to Jax. It was the one point of contact he hadn’t given me and I wanted it. When his hand snapped down to grip my hip, I froze and looked over my shoulder at him. “What?”
“I’m trying to be a gentleman, Savannah.” I just kept staring at him in confusion until he pressed forward and let me feel the thing he considered ungentlemanly. My eyes widened and my cheeks burned but when I turned back to my little spoon position there was a grin on my face. Jax didn’t bother pulling back again. He let me feel the length of his erection pressing into my ass and let his grip on my hip slide forward the smallest bit. “Okay?”
I didn’t mean to laugh. If he thought he was somehow pushing himself on me, he clearly didn’t know that he and his two best friends had turned me into a big ‘ole skank. I’d even been the one trying to rub my ass on him. Yet he was worried about me.
I suddenly found myself on my back with Jax straddling my hips and pretending to glare down at me. I tried to buck him off but he was too heavy. Then he pinned my arms to my sides and gave me a look that made my vagina sit up and beg.
“What’s funny?”
I licked my lips and glanced down at where he was tenting his basketball shorts. “You. Asking me if I’m okay with you touching me like you haven’t already had your entire face buried between my legs. It’s sweet but you’ve seen the way I basically become a randy dog when I’m around you.”
His grin was devastating. “A randy dog?”
“Because they hump people’s legs…” I scowled at him. “Why’d you make me say it out loud?”
“You want to hump my leg, Sav?” He bent down and buried his face into my chest. He opened his mouth and huffed out a warm breath over my nipple, then nippled it through my shirt. “The feeling’s mutual.”
I lifted my head as much as I could, all but begging for him to kiss me. Then I remembered morning breath and froze. “Oh, god. I have to brush my teeth first. I want you to kiss me, Jax, but I don’t want you to know what my morning breath smells like.”
“What if I tell you that I don’t care what it smells like?”
I shook my head. “I have to be able to look at myself later. If I know that I subjected you to that I don’t think I’d ever stop thinking about it.”
He let out a dramatic groan and rolled off me. Flopped onto his back beside me he shut his eyes and motioned for me to go. “At least hurry.”
I laughed and hesitated next to the bed. Some kind of horny Jezebel had taken over my body because I shrugged and leaned onto the bed to press a kiss to his erection. It twitched and then Jax growled and I rushed to the bathroom before I lost my chance to have fresh breath.
I took care of my bathroom needs and hurried through washing my hands and brushing my teeth. I couldn’t look myself in the mirror unless I wanted to unpack all of my emotional shit right there in the bathroom. I pulled my hair up in a neater bun without looking and then rushed back into the hallway.
Blaire was walking down the hall towards my room. She spotted me and grinned. “I brought muffins and juice. I need to know the details of whatever happened to you yesterday. When you didn’t come back last night I knew you’d be walking funny today and I was right.”
