Why did she never take the advice she so readily gave me?
I keep my hands locked behind my head and watch her, moving around the hood and fanning the hose up and down, spraying every inch. I notice some of the paint coming up and running down the truck as she tries to remove as much shit with the hose as possible.
She then releases the handle, stopping the flow, and drops the gun to the ground. Grabbing the hem of her loose black shirt, she pulls it over her head, revealing a thin white tank top with glimpses of a dark pink bra peeking out from underneath. Heat floods my groin, and I feel it start to swell. Shit.
She walks to the passenger side door, opens it, and barely glances at me before she tosses her shirt inside and slams the door closed again. Taking the brush with the long handle off the wall, she shuffles her feet, like she’s taking off her sandals, and heads for the front of the truck, stepping up on the bumper.
I didn’t think of that. She’s probably too short to be able to scrub the middle of the hood if she stands on the ground. Maybe I should help her.
But I look out the windshield, streaked with water, and see her beautiful body leaning forward over the hood, scrubbing so hard her breasts shake just enough to send me reeling. This was a bad idea.
And I can’t take my eyes off her. Her tanned thighs bob against the grill as her tank top rises up with the exertion, and I can see inches of toned stomach, her hair hanging around her and her chest in perfect view. My cock starts to grow hard, and I want her in here, not out there. I want her straddling my lap, close and in my hands.
She jumps down and rounds the car to my side, stepping up again, this time on the tire. Leaning into the hood, right in front of me, she scrubs the paint off, the small muscles in her arms flexing and her scowl getting deeper the harder she works. My eyes flash to her stomach again, and my hands are begging to touch her skin there.
What a double-edged sword. Am I angry she’s a fake, weak-assed, little liar? Yes. But am I happy she’s also got the body of a porn star? Hell yes. She doesn’t have to talk for me to look.
All of a sudden I see her turn her head, and I meet her eyes, hers looking like she wants to kick me in the nuts. She flips me a middle finger, seeing me watching her, and I start laughing to myself.
Trey is nearly forgotten. For the moment.
She hops down and takes the brush back to the wall, and then she picks the hose up off the ground again. Spraying the truck, she washes away all of the paint, the white-tinted water spilling off the hood and onto the ground. I close my eyes again, enjoying the sound of the rain and the water covering the truck.
But something cold and wet suddenly hits my face, and I jerk, opening my eyes. Ryen stands on the passenger side, spraying the side of the truck and hitting the inch-wide slit in the window left open on the passenger side door.
Dammit!
She fans the hose, spraying more, and I growl as water splatters all over the inside of the cab and the leather seats.
“Shit!” I yell, opening my door and jumping out. “Knock it off!”
My black T-shirt is damp, and I round the truck, glaring at her. She casually sprays the hood of the car, pretending to whistle. “What? What did I do?”
“Give me the hose.” I hold out my hand.
She shrugs, feigning innocence. “I didn’t know the window was down. Water can be dried. Relax.”
I stalk toward her, because she’s the one with the weapon. “Give me…the hose.”
She purses her lips, clearly trying to hide a smile. “Come and get it.”
I inch toward her, knowing she’s going to spray me, but maybe if I’m quick I can—
All of a sudden, she swings the gun toward me and sprays, the cold water hitting my arms, hands, and making my shirt stick to my chest.
I growl, lunging for her, and she squeals, throwing the gun at me and yanking open the back door. I pick up the gun from where it dropped and swing around the door, seeing her lying on the back seat, her head arched up, breathing hard, and holding out her hands in defense as she watches me.
She licks her lips, out of breath with a hint of a smile. “Don’t, please,” she begs. “I’m sorry.”
Her body shakes with a silent, nervous laugh, but I can’t move. The sight of her there on the seat, her breasts rising and falling and her thighs slightly spread with one foot on the floor and the other leg arched up, sends my body reeling.
Jesus.
Sweat—or water, I’m not sure—glistens across her chest, and a blush covers her cheeks.
I step up and set the hose, still locked on, onto the roof. The water spills in a wide, steady stream down the front windshield.
I hold her eyes. “You got me wet,” I point out. “Fair’s fair.”
Her breathing falters, and she stares at me, frozen. Will she run away?
I lean down, bowing my head into the cab and hovering over her body, holding myself up with my hands. Her eyes flash to the windshield; she’s probably nervous we can be seen. But the water distorts the view, creating a blur.
She arches up on her hands, meeting me halfway as her hot, little breaths fan across my lips. Her eyes fall to my mouth.
“What does it feel like?” she asks quietly, reaching a timid finger out and touching my lip piercing.
I groan, challenging her. “You tell me.”
She locks eyes with me as if scared, but then her gaze falls again to the piercing. Opening her mouth just slightly, she darts out her tongue and flicks the ring.
I groan again, unable to keep my eyes from falling shut. The wet heat from that small spot filters across my face, down my neck, and swoops low in my stomach, making my fingers dig into the leather seats.
Her breath hits my skin again, and I open my eyes to see hers watching me intently as she goes back for more. Her tongue slowly traces a trail over the ring before she darts out and bites my lip around it, pulling the whole thing in her mouth.
My skin burns and tingles everywhere, and I nearly lose the fucking strength to hold myself up. Her eyes stay open, watching me pant and groan at everything she’s doing. She sucks and bites and licks and tugs as I just hover there, not moving and not kissing back as I let her explore.
A horn honks, but I barely register it.
“Masen,” she whispers, running her lips over the ring, again and again, and snaking a hand around the back of my neck.
Masen.
I reach out and splay a hand across her stomach, finally taking her in my hands. I want her to say my name, dammit. I want to hear my name from her lips right now.
“Yo, idiot!” A car horn honks again, and I blink, realizing someone is here. “Where’s my girl at?”
Oh, shit.
Ryen pulls away, hearing Trey’s voice, too, and stares up at me, a hint of fear in her eyes.
I glance out the window, seeing the blue blur of his Camaro sitting in front of the bay. I can’t see him, though, so he can’t see us through the water. If he could, I’m sure I would’ve felt him before I saw him.
I look down at Ryen, still feeling the desire roll off her.
“She’s right here, Burrowes.” My voice is low so only Ryen can hear me as I run my hand across her stomach. “And she feels really good.”
Ryen bites her bottom lip and shakes her head, pleading.
“Hello! Wake up, asshole!” Trey barks again.
I stare down at Ryen. “Are you wet now?” And I climb off her and out of the truck, shooting her a smirk. “Stay down.”
Slamming the door closed, I see Trey sitting in his car with his window down. The rain is still pouring and the clouds have grown darker.
I grab the hose and shut it off, hanging it up. “She bailed,” I bark. “Walked home. Now fuck off.”
He laughs, shaking his head. “Don’t worry, man. You can have her all you want after our baseball game against Thunder Bay next week. I like a little pussy after I win, so until then, you wait your turn.”
What the fuck did he just say? I watch as he speeds off and disappears down the road, curling my fists.
I will not wait my turn.
He can’t have her.
I lick my lips, feeling the warm metal graze my tongue.
