mind. He is worried. I can see it in his eyes. He is trying to convince me of his feelings and I am totally not getting it, not until right this second. I grab the back of his head with my hands and force his mouth back to mine. I kiss him with desperation. I am completely frantic. I need him to understand that I finally get it. That I know now that he actually does like me, this is not some cruel joke or a onetime thing, no this is much bigger than that.
I finally brake off our kiss so I can come up for air. He is totally grinning at me. “We should probably get going.” He moves back over to his side of the truck and puts it back in gear. I watch him drive thinking how utterly sexy he is. He never takes his eyes off the road just reaches over and grabs my hand placing it on the center console, threading his fingers threw mine. “That feels better.” He tells me with a wicked grin. My stomach does a little flip flop. I am falling hard and if I crash I know there is no way I will come out of this alive. This man has the ability to wreck me.
CHAPTER 12
“ Happy Birthday Bestie!” Tess hollers through the phone at me.
“ Thanks Bestie.”
It’s my Birthday, which just so happens to be on Halloween. I know scary right. I was born on the holiday known to frighten young children.
“ So what is that man of yours doing for you on your special day?”
“ Tess he isn’t my man. We haven’t really had that talk. We are just getting to know each other.”
“ Call it whatever you want, but you have a boyfriend.” She teases.
“ Alright, whatever you say.” I know I shouldn’t be cranky but I woke up in a bad mood. I had the worst dream ever the night before. I dreamt that Cutter was sleeping with another girl. I walked in on them. It was horrible. I have been in a foul mood ever since then. “I think there is a party at Cutter’s frat we are going to.”
“ What are you going as?” Tess loves Halloween, the fact that it is also her Best friend’s birthday makes it even more fun.
“ I am going to be a Grecian goddess. I found this amazing long black dress that has braided detail on the straps. I had to have it.” My dress is beautiful. It is long and black, with a deep V-shape in the front and in the back. The straps were intricately woven making it look authentically Grecian. I also found a beautiful braided leather headband to pair with it.
“ Oh…sounds beautiful!” She says.
“ What are your plans for the evening?”
“ I’m going to this house party with the guy I was telling you about.”
“ The guy from the dog park? The rocker guy?” Tess had met a guy while at the dog park with her bulldog puppy Bentley. Apparently their dogs hit it off and they have been meeting at the park to let them play almost every afternoon. I told her he was interested in her, but she repeatedly told me he wasn’t her type. He has tons of tattoos and is the lead singer of his rock band. He didn’t sound like her type, but something told me he was going to surprise us.
“ Yeah he invited me to this house party his bandmates are throwing. I said I would go.” She was trying to be nonchalant but I know her too well. I could tell the first time she told me about this guy that he is different.
“ Great! What are you going as?”
“ Don’t laugh….a bumble bee.”
I can’t help it I totally laugh just picturing her in a giant bumble bee costume. “A bumble bee huh?”
“ It’s really cute. It’s totally not what you’re thinking. I found this really cute black and yellow bustier that goes with this black tutu thing that lights up. It is supper short and totally slutty but it’s still really cute.”
Okay, that is sounding more like Tess. “You better send me pictures and I want to hear the minute Mr. Hot Rocker tries to put the moves on you. I know it is going to happen.”
“ We aren’t like that. We are just friends because our dogs are in love.” She tells me.
“ Yeah sure blame it
