Was I just another girl?

I hated feelin’ this way, especially when he was bein’ so sweet, so carin’, so attainable for once in our lives. Jackson wasn’t tryin’ to hide, showin’ me a side of him I never knew existed.

Was it an act?

Was he playin’ me?

Ugh! I couldn’t get my insecurities to leave. In turn, I did the next best thing, suggestin’, “Let’s see how many whiskey dispensaries we can go into and come out standin’.”

Solely wantin’ the voice to stop, to pause, to allow me to fully enjoy him. Might only be for tonight, but I wanted to live in this moment with him. I didn’t care what tomorrow brought, ’cuz right now...

In this second.

He was mine.

“You have a fake ID?” he responded, caught off guard with my idea.

“Oh, Jackson Pierce, there’s so much you don’t know about me.”

He shook he head, grinnin’. “If you want to drink with me, you drink water in between places.”

“What? Why?”

“’Cuz you weigh nothing, and that’s the only way you’ll be able to hang with me.”

I rolled my eyes but agreed.

Knowin’ in my heart, in my soul, somethin’ epic was about to happen between us.

And I for one, couldn’t wait.

I wanted him.

Mine.

Then...

Now...

Forever?

When she started giggling uncontrollably over nothing, I knew it was time to get her drunk ass back to the cabin.

Hailing a cab down the road from the last dispensary, she barely walked out upright. I threw her over my shoulder and smacked her ass.

“Hey! What was that for?”

“’Cuz I can. ’Cuz you needed it. ’Cuz I wanted to.”

“But it’s my booty.”

“Gremlin, how many times do I have to tell you, you’re mine, including this ass.” I smacked it again for good measure, earning me a whimper off her lips. Stepping into the cab, I placed her on my lap instead of sitting her beside me. Not wanting to let her go.

“Where to?” the driver asked, looking at us through the rearview mirror.

“The cabins off Carter Road.”

“Jackson, you’re gonna get us kicked out of this ride if you don’t let me go.”

Through the rearview mirror, I gave a curt nod to the driver. “Eyes on the road and you’ll get an extra fifty.”

The guy smiled before peering away to start driving.

“Money always makes people look the other way.”

“I’m a big girl. I can sit by myself.”

“Then what would my hands hold?” I gripped onto her ass harder.

“You know you’re doin’ it all backward. You’re supposed to kiss me first, groping comes after, Rudolph.”

“So you’re telling me all these years I’ve been kissing you I could have been groping you too?”

She laughed in that girly way I usually found annoying. Except with her it was my preference.

Rasping into her ear, “Is that how they do it on Pornhub?”

She blushed, and the liquor coursing through her veins made it livelier than earlier.

To be with someone, to really be with them on a level other than physical, was something I’d never experienced. Something I had never had.

Until her.

The subtle expressions she was projecting at me all day, when she didn’t think I was looking...

Were perfect.

She was perfect.

I couldn’t remember the last time I came up for air. Took a second to breathe, a moment to catch my bearings, trying to fight against her pull. Harley’s current was strong and growing every time I was with her. I never expected to fall hard. I wasn’t even looking for anyone, but there she was. This girl with such a force, such a drive. A gift from God. It was so fuckin’ powerful, I never stood a chance.

There was no push and pull when it came to how much I needed her. Loved being around her.

Was I in love with her?

No.

Yes.

Maybe?

“Hey, where did you go?”

“I’m right here with you, baby girl. There’s nowhere else I’d rather be.”

“Oh, and there was groping when you kissed me. I’m sure your nuts remember,” she taunted, nodding to my balls.

“My boys are thrilled you’ve moved on from that.”

She giggled like a little school girl.

“Who’d believe we’ve gone from sippy cups to shooting shots?’

“Are you gettin’ sentimental on me?”

“Maybe.”

“Whiskey turns you into a pussy, Jackson Pierce.”

I tickled inside her thigh, and she went ape shit.

Kicking and screaming.

“Don’t! Oh my God! You’re gonna make me pee my pants!”

“Should have thought about that before turning into a little shit.”

“Jackson! Jackson!”

“I love it when you scream my name.”

“I’m going to knee you in the balls, if you don’t stop.”

“How you gonna do that, Gremlin? Seeing as I’m holding you down.”

She laughed, wiggling, squirming, being fuckin’ adorable.

The car came to a screeching halt.

“You’re lucky or else I—”

“Would have escaped and come after your boys.”

With that, she swiftly bolted out of my grasp and hauled ass inside the cabin.

I paid the driver and quickly made my way through the front entrance, finding her darting up the stairs, hollering, “Let’s go in the hot tub!”
