“Are you sure?”
“Yes! Rowdy would never do something like that. He’s a great big brother.”
I released a deep breath, relieved I didn’t have to shoot his ass.
“That’s good to know. Umm, can you keep this conversation between us? I don’t want him to think I thought he was a pedophile for sixty seconds.”
She laughed. “He won’t hear it from me.”
“Thank you. I still want to know what you think being with me will stop him from doing.”
She sighed. “Let’s just say being with you will keep him out the streets.”
“Is that why y’all left Savannah?”
She nodded. “I don’t want to say more than that because it’s really not my business to tell, if that’s okay.”
I nodded. “That’s fine, sweetheart. Thank you for your honesty. You’d better get to class.”
“It’s just study hall, but okay.”
She left, and I looked at the time. I didn’t have time to dwell on what Ramina had shared about her brother. I’d been seeing students since school started and missed my lunch. I had a meeting in forty minutes and needed to eat something before I started feeling faint. Messing around with Rowdy, I was running late this morning and forgot to grab the lunch I’d packed, but I kept snacks in my office for days like this.
After looking up the location of Violet’s locker and checking to see which ones near hers were empty, I sent an email to the necessary parties to move Ramina’s locker. I then filled out a few passes for Diondra and her besties to come to my office during the last period of the day.
“Noelani, the security at the main entrance says there’s someone here to see you,” one of our office assistants, Shamia, appeared at my door and announced.
“Umm, okay. Thank you. Can you have one of our student aides deliver these passes during eighth period?”
“Sure,” Shamia responded, taking the passes.
On the way to the main entrance, I was stopped three times, and when I finally arrived, a smile spread across my face. Rowdy’s fine ass casually leaned against the check-in counter.
“What are you doing here?” I asked.
He held up a bag from the deli down the street, causing my eyes to widen and my stomach to growl.
“I thought you might be hungry,” he said.
I looked down at the bag of pretzels I’d grabbed before leaving my office.
“Your timing is impeccable, but I only have about thirty minutes.”
“Let’s make the most of it. Are we going to your office?”
I nodded, took his free hand, and we went to my office. Although Rowdy was dressed in navy coveralls and a dusty pair of work boots, he looked good enough to eat, and I wasn’t the only one who thought so.
As soon as we entered the student services office, all eyes were on him. I dragged him past all the nosy eyes without an introduction. Once we were in my office with the door closed, he placed the bag of food on my desk and wrapped me in his arms, burying his face in my neck. I didn’t even care that he smelled like motor oil. His hands made their way to my ass, and he gave it a good squeeze.
“That ass is juicy as fuck,” he mumbled against my neck.
Before releasing me, he cupped my face, left a peck on my nose, and pressed his lips against mine. It took every ounce of strength I had to pull away from him before I let him fuck me against my office door.
“I missed you,” he confessed.
“I see. I missed you too. Thank you for lunch.”
“I wanted to have it delivered earlier but time got away from me, and when I realized it, it was quicker to deliver it myself.”
