Inspectin’ her handy work, she stated, “If I was into chicks, I’d totally do you.”

“Awe, thanks, babe.”

“Go team!” She smacked my ass. “I’ll watch Teddy. Go!”

“Do I have to?”

She rolled her eyes, shook her head, and dragged me down the long narrow hallway toward Jackson’s bedroom.

“I can’t do this.”

Not allowin’ me to back down, she knocked on his door for me.

“I hate you.”

She smiled. “I love you too.” Creatin’ a heart with her fingers.

No response from the other side of the door.

“Okay, he’s not here.”

Before I could bolt, she knocked on the door again, and this time Jackson shouted, “Get lost!”

She didn’t listen and opened it anyway, hidin’ behind the door.

I, on the other hand, was in full view. “Hey,” I greeted, my heart suddenly hammerin’ out of my chest.

Boom.

Boom.

Boom.

“What part of get lost didn’t you understand?”

When I didn’t answer him fast enough, Shiloh shoved me into his room. Causin’ me to stumble over my own two feet. Quickly, she closed the door behind me, leavin’ me alone with the beast. I could have died of embarrassment right then and there.

If it weren’t for Jackson’s expression, shiftin’ over to somethin’ I couldn’t put my finger on when my scent assaulted his senses, I probably would have.

His eyes dilated as he reached for a pillow to cover his lap.

Unable to hide the fact that the mere smell of me gave him a boner. I smirked, feelin’ all cocky.

However, he broke the spell, snappin’, “What do you want?” in a sharp, guarded tone.

He was back to Jackson Pierce, my bully, my enemy, my fuckin’ asshole.

I treaded lightly, replyin’, “Jackson, don’t be like that.”

“And what way would you like me to be?”

“I don’t know. Just not like this.”

“Which is what?”

“Ignornin’ me.”

“How’s it feel, baby girl? To finally feel what I go through with you.”

“I’m sorry.” I shrugged. “There I said it.”

“Yeah, ’cuz that sounded really sincere.”

Bowin’ my head in shame, I slowly stepped into his space. Sittin’ on the corner of the queen-size bed.

“Did you get all done up for me?”

Our eyes connected.

“No.”

“Then why are your hard nipples standing at attention, staring right at me. You cold, Gremlin?”

I died a million deaths, instantly crossin’ my arms over my chest.

“Who dressed you?”

“Shiloh. How did you know?”

“Your outfit matches.”

I chuckled, battin’ my lashes.

“The makeup and hair too?”

“Maybe.”

“Is that why you smell so fuckin’ good?”

“Yeah, but she almost killed Teddy in the process.”

“Where is the biggest Wheaten of life?”

“She’s babysittin’ him.”

“Oh, so mom and dad can have it out?”

“Dad?”

He ignored my remark, repeatin’, “What do you want, Gremlin?”

“I want you to not be mad at me.”

“If I told you I wasn’t, would you leave?”

“No.”

“Why?”

“’Cuz I ... kind of ... I don’t know ... missed you ... a little today ... maybe...”

“Is that right?”

“I said maybe.”

“Then maybe you should get your ass out of my room.”

“Ugh! Fine. I missed you today, okay? Happy now?”

“Not even close.”

“Come on, Jackson. Don’t make me grovel.”

He leaned back against the headboard and cocked his head to the side.

Waitin’.

I took a deep, steady breath. “I wasn’t tryin’ to be insensitive last night. I guess I don’t understand why you would be so mad... It’s like I’m in a lose lose situation with you. I can’t fuck anyone else ’cuz you won’t allow it, and now... I can’t even fuck you ’cuz you won’t allow that either.”

“The fact that you’re still calling it a fuck means a lot, Harley.”

I wasn’t goin’ to get anywhere with him until I admitted the truth, blurtin’, “I don’t trust you.”

His eyes narrowed in on me. “I never cheated on you. We weren’t together, and you know that.”

“Yes, I do. But ... when we were dancin’, you made it sound like you were waitin’ for someone special, and after talkin’ to Camila”—I peered down in my lap, playin’ with the hem of my shorts—“I guess... I just thought you were waitin’ for me.” I paused, contemplatin’ if I should go on. “She said she’s caught you watchin’ videos you recorded of me. It’s stupid, I know. She was probably lyin’, tryin’ to make me feel better or som—”

“She wasn’t.”

My gaze locked with his.

Our eyes once again tethered, and for a moment I saw a certain vulnerability pass through him. An intense feelin’ I could feel deep within my core.

Makin’ it much easier for me to express, “I wasn’t expectin’ to find you with her. It hurt me. A lot.”

“You jealous, Harley? ’Cuz green isn’t your color, baby girl.”

“Ugh! Forget it!”

There was no gettin’ through his stubborn ass head, pissed at myself for even tryin’. I stood abruptly, about to leave him sittin’ there, but before I could take a step he gripped onto my wrist and yanked me onto his lap.

The feelin’ of my ass hittin’ Jackson’s dick, triggered one thing and one thing alone—he was done ignorin’ me.
