“Sooooo, do you want me to follow the guys out and drive your car to my house?”
Jared grabs my hips, slowly lifting me off of him, like I weigh nothing. Jumping to his feet first, he offers me his hand and helps me off of the ground. Our hands still connected, my eyes still glued to his face—this palpable connection still lingering.
“Will you be able to give me a ride to Brittney’s later?”
“Of course, if that’s what you want.” Jared looks between Brittney and me before slowly backing away, grabbing a bottle of water to pour on the fire. I don’t miss the casual way he readjusts himself in those thin trunks.
“I’m going to need all the details when you come back to my house tonight!” Brittney whisper-shouts, trying to hide how giddy this makes her. “You deserve a night of fun, even if you don’t want to date. Enjoy him inallthe right ways.Please, do not let that fine specimen off the hook.” She doesn’t bother to hide the fact that she’s checking out Jared’s ass.
I pull her in for a tight hug, pecking her on the cheek. “No promises.” Brittney holds onto me for an extra beat before releasing me.
My heart is racing against my rib cage, palms clammy. Oh boy, I want Cap Guy real bad.
Greg loads up the last of our supplies into Steffan’s truck. His stare ping-pongs between Jared and me as Brittney lets them know they’ll see me later. My nerves are at an all-time high as I give hugs to the guys. It would be hard to miss their intimidating stares directed toward Jared. We watch my Camaro pull out of the park, and the lights of the other vehicles disappear into the distance. Leaving just the two of us alone, at last.
A warm hand that fits perfectly around mine latches on, pulling my stare from the road. “You wanna go for a drive?” Jared tips his head. “We can head out to my house; it isn’t too far from here.”
I’m unable to form a logical sentence, with this tingling sensation spreading up my arm. So, I simply smile and nod. Jared’s hand tightens around mine, leading me to his cherry-red single cabChevy truck, and he opens the passenger door for me. Not only is he sex on legs, this guy is also a gentleman. Butterflies erupt in my stomach, making me dizzy and nauseous. I haven’t felt this since… well… ever, if I’m being honest with myself. Even with Brandon, his physical touch never sent my body intoGOmode. Maybe it’s because I haven’t been touched in a while... That has to be it, right? Are these the feelings my smutty books are always talking about?!
CHAPTER 8
Kailey
Late night driving on dirt roads has always brought a sense of inner peace within me. Tonight is the complete opposite—the electricity crackling in the cab between Jared and me is palpable. My body wants his hand, that’s holding mine, to explore more than just my sweaty palm. The fingertips of his free hand drum on the steering wheel along to “All the Small Things” by Blink 182. The scent of fresh cut grass wafts in through the open windows, the unmistakable hint of cow fields and country air fills the cab as we drive down the dirt road. A slow, devious smile breaks across Jared’s handsome face, showing off all of his perfect white teeth, and crinkling the skin around his eyes.
“Do you like what you see, Dimples?”
I should be embarrassed that he caught me staring at him, instead, all I feel is excitement. A challenge in the making. Internally, I’m restraining myself from raking my fingers through the hair that’s tucked inside his ball cap.
Acting on impulse, my free hand reaches over, snagging his hat and slipping it onto my head with a mischievous smirk. His front teeth sink into his bottom lip; he’s grinning and shaking his head but keeping eyes focused on the road ahead.
“Actually… Yeah, I think I really do. The real question, though, is… Do I look better in your hat?” I ask, pulling a pouty lip and cocked brow.
I pull his cap down onto my head, covering my face. Making a show of it by turning my head side to side, smiling just for him. Looking up at him through my eyelashes, the heated stare I receive stops my movement at once. Jared pulls over and kills the engine on the side of the dirt road.
His stare lingers on my lips. They suddenly feel dry. I slip my tongue along them to ease the feeling. I swear I hear him groan as he tracks the movement. Sweat trickles along my spine, the heat outside combining with the heat burning up my skin.
Jared’s face leans a fraction closer. “I think… that I’d like you inanythingthat belongs to me.” Casually, his free hand goes to reposition the growing bulge beneath his trunks. My eyes can’t help but stare at his growing erection.
“Would that surprise you though? I make anything look good.” I poke him in the side of his ribs, trying to keep the blush radiating up my neck at bay.Get control of yourself, Kailey!
We both laugh. Jared points to a house a little ways up the road on the right; a few lights are on, glowing in the darkness. My gaze sweeps around the area; there aren’t any neighboring houses close by.
“That’s where I live with my brother, Joey. Do you want to go inside or…?” His emerald green eyes are so tempting as he stares at me, awaiting my response.
Looking at Jared right now, I can feel the raw sexual energy between us. Knowing he feels it too, I decide I’m not ready to trust myself inside his house just yet. I know if I went inside, I’d definitely end up riding his cock by the end of the night, so why not start off with some good old fashioned dry humping out here under the stars?
“It’s a beautiful night,” hiking a thumb over my head, “why don’t we hang out in the bed of your truck and talk?”
He nods in agreement. “I like that idea; let me run inside the house real quick and grab some pillows and blankets.”
Jared restarts the engine and drives us the rest of the way to his house. The outside of his home is beautiful, in a country setting kind of way, with a wraparound solid wood porch. All it needs is a swing. He parks the truck behind the house and jumps out, telling me he’ll be right back. As I step out of the truck, I look up and notice just how much more prominent the stars are out here, in the middle of nowhere, sparkling in the pitch black. Crickets chirp as the soft intermittent glow of nearby lightning bugs flicker in the dark.
The back door slams, and I notice Jared is carrying multiple blankets and a couple of pillows. He also changed into gray sweats and a white V-neck shirt that rides up enough to show off his tempting V-line. I make a fist, causing my nails to dig into my palm in hopes the pain will distract my body from the throbbing that’s started in my pussy. Usually, I’m the one doing the tempting, teasing a guy. With Jared, I feel likehe’llbe the one to givemeblue balls—Well, the female version, of course, which would be… blueclit,maybe?! Shaking my head, I scold myself,Snap out of it Kailey! “Need any help?”
“Yeah, just unlatch the tailgate and push it down for me.” After placing the stuff from inside the house on the ground, Jared hops up into the truck bed. He quickly drags out a cooler, a folding chair, and some random trash.
Something aluminum in his hand catches my eye.“What’s in your hand?”
