I sat in the chair closest to her and tried to relax. I wanted her in my bed, but she needed to want it, too. It seemed like she’d need some time to get used to the idea. “You girls have a good day?”
“Spent all of it having our hair and nails done.” She shrugged and turned to me, sitting up on the chair until her feet were on the ground, facing me. “What are we doing?”
I hid my smile behind my beer. “What do you want to be doing?”
Her eyes flickered to my bedroom windows behind us before her bottom lip found its way to her teeth again.
“I want you,” I said bluntly. “I’ve wanted you for months. This weekend, our friends are all paired off and I plan on spending most of it with you, convincing you why we’d be good together. That’s what I’m doing, Camden. What doyouwant?”
She chewed on her lip and let it go free. “I think that if we have to spend time together, we should at least be friends.”
“Friends?”
Her lips twitched and pink spread to her cheeks. She took another sip of beer. “I’m going to be honest, David. All of this, tonight, it’s all so far outside my comfort zone that I’m still reeling a little bit. I mean, I just had sex with you in a closet and I’ve never done that before.”
I grinned. “But you liked it. And you like me.”
She rolled her eyes, but it was playful, not annoyed or disgusted. “Fine. Yes, I liked it. And I want more of it.”
It was all I needed to hear. Before she could tell me why we shouldn’t, I stood up and reached for her hand, pulling her to her feet and then to my chest. I wrapped my hand around her lower back and held her to me, dipping my chin so I could whisper in her ear. “Stop thinking so hard, Camden. Spend the weekend with me. We’ll have fun, we’ll be friends.” We’d be friends. Good ones. With excellent benefits. “And then we’ll just see what happens when we get back to Latham Hills, okay?”
Her pale-pink tongue slid across her lower lip.
I leaned closer until my nose brushed against hers. She shivered in my hold and a puff of breath escaped her parted wet lips. “Camden. Kiss me.”
