I nuzzle against the side of her neck with my nose. The sound of her breath catching in her throat only turns me on more. Taking my finger, I trace her neck, then move slowly down her arm as I softly place kisses on her neck. Lexi shivers as I run my tongue up to her ear and she finally does what I’ve been waiting for. She moves her head to give me more access. All I want now is to hear her moan for me.

I move my hand over her stomach and whisper in her ear. “Ready for round one?” She stops my hand from moving. I turn her around and push her up against the window with my nose still nuzzled in her neck. God, she smells like heaven.

Trailing tiny butterfly kisses down her neck to her collarbone, I smile as I hear her gasp. Slowly moving back up, I gently trace her jaw with my tongue, and I’m rewarded with her shivers. Her breathing gets shallower as I get closer to her ear, then gently suck on her earlobe.

Pulling away from her, I hold her against the window. With her eyes looking straight into mine, I gently bring my finger to her cheek and slowly move it along her chin. Taking a step closer to her, I quickly take her lips with mine.

I run my tongue along her bottom lip, begging her to open for me and I’m rewarded when she does. I slide my tongue against hers. Her hands move over my chest to my shoulders. I’ve waited long enough to feel her touch me like this. Her hands settle around my neck and she pulls me closer.

She tastes just as good as I thought she would. Her hand moves up my face, making my skin burn wherever she touches.

My phone rings in my pocket and Lexi goes to walk away, but I press against her. She moans against my mouth and the vibration runs through me. I don’t want to let go of her. I want to kiss her more, touch her more, and I want to fuck her even more.

My phone rings again and I gently break the kiss. “Fuck,” I say under my breath. I look at Lexi, her cheeks flushed and lips swollen, and for the first time, I see her eyes staring back at me full of intense passion. I have never seen eyes that looked at me like that, and it does something to me.

I go to say something, but my phone rings. I don’t take my eyes off of Lexi as I answer it. “This better be fucking good,” I say loudly without knowing who I’m talking to.

“We need to talk.” The sound of her voice grates on my nerves. I walk away from Lexi.

“Don’t call my fucking phone. I’ve told you I don’t want to talk to you.” Ending the call, I turn around and see Lexi isn’t where I left her.

Fuck, the bitch screwed up my chance with Lexi. I turn toward the door to see if I can catch her before she leaves, and see her at the elevator.

“Are you finished with work for the day?” Lexi asks, holding the elevator door open.

“Yes, and I’m hoping to pick up where we left off.” I walk over to the elevator. “Your lips taste very…”

“Do you want me to stay for dinner, or can I go home?” she asks, and I wonder what’s going through her head.

“Dinner,” I tell her. She steps into the elevator without saying anything else. I know she liked the kiss too, but I get the feeling she's more pissed off with herself than she is with me. I’m going to give her a little bit of space so there won’t be any doubt in her mind that she wants this just as much as I do.

Walking around town, I wanted to buy Lexi a pair of these Jimmy’s that she talks about. I have bought her a pair already and can’t understand why she’s never worn them, and I want to buy more for her to wear to dinner tonight. The price of these shoes is ridiculous, but I told her I would buy her all the Jimmy’s she wants, and I meant it.

Lexi told me she has plans for breakfast with a friend, and that she's sorry it was short notice, but they only told her they were in town yesterday. I told her I would never stop her meeting up with her friends and I wanted her to live her life like she normally would.

Looking across the road, I see Lexi with two guys. One is a tall blonde and the other is a little shorter with dark hair. I stand there for a moment watching her. She has her arms wrapped around the blond as they walk down the street. Looking at the road to make sure no cars are coming, I walk across the street and stand in front of her and her friends.

She looks at me in surprise. The guy with his arm around her goes to walk around me.

“Do you mind?” the dark-haired guy with them says. My eyes stay on Lexi the whole time, and her eyes never leave mine. “Lexi, do you know him?” He looks at her.

“No, Dan, I don’t. He must have me confused with someone else,” she says and looks at the guy she just called Dan.

I don’t know what comes over me. I have no idea why his words annoy me so much. I have no idea why seeing her with them has angered me. Grabbing her by the arm, I push against her, making her walk backward into a small alley.

“Get your hands off her,” one of the guys shouts.

Lexi looks at me and nods as I push her against the building. “You think you're playing a cute game,” I say, bringing my face very close to hers, “But did you forget the time I told you, you were now mine?” Licking my lips, I watch her breathe deliberately slow.

“I'm not yours, and what I do on my own time is my business.” She pushes me away from her. “I’m calling Ms. Jackie for a meeting. Actually, I’m just going to go on over there now.” She walks away from me to where the guys are standing. I watch her whispering to the one she called Dan. I don’t know what she's telling him, but I become more concerned when he to looks over at the other man and nods.

The dark-haired guy wraps his arms around her waist and pulls her in closer and then kisses her. Fuck if I’m going to just stand here and watch this. I muscle my way over to them and pull Lexi away from him.

“We can go together,” I tell her, pulling her away from the two men. Now, I’m pissed off. How dare she kiss someone in front of me when she was just kissing me yesterday? It’s a good thing Jackie’s workplace is on this street, because I don’t think I can keep my temper at bay.

Walking into the building, I walk straight into Jackie’s office. She looks between us, so I let go of Lexi’s arm and pace the room.
