I pull away, leaving her wanting more, and she does what she can to steady herself. Her heated eyes lock on mine as I hold onto her tightly. I step away, moving toward the locker room while walking backward to keep my stare on her. “There’s no way you’re changing my mind, babe. It’s definitely a date,” I tell her, watching the way her jaw slackens, preparing to argue. Before she gets the chance, I slip back into the locker room, a wide grin stretched across my face.
I find Tank as soon as I walk in, dressed and ready to go. “Where the fuck did you go?” he questions, eyeing me still in my towel.
“Just got myself a date,” I smirk.
His face lights up in understanding. “Damn right you did,” he cheers, reaching up and giving me a high five as I pass by. I get myself dressed and pack up my shit, my mind already consumed with all the ways I could make this date the best night of her life.
“Cain,” Coach says as he makes his way into the locker room. “Great game.”
“Thanks, Coach,” I say with a nod as the boys cheer and chant around me. We’ve added yet another victory to our belts.
“As for the rest of you, it was sloppy. We barely got by. I saw far too many suicide passes. It’s no wonder Jaxon got body checked. I expect more. I’m scheduling an extra training session this week, so be prepared and keep checking the notice board for session times.” The boys groan, but after a sharp look from Coach, they snap right back into their celebrations. “Get out of here,” Coach orders.
The crowd waiting for us on the other side of the door seems to have doubled over the last few weeks, and I know that’s solely because of Dani and Sophie making us look like the gods we pretend to be. I push my way through the crowd in search of the one face that I desperately need to see, getting slaps of approval on the back as I go.
My eyes land on her almost instantly as if she called for me, and I make my way over to her, finding her with Jared. “Hey,” she grins.
“Hey, yourself,” I say, leaning in and kissing her on the cheek. “Where’s Sophie tonight?”
“Oh, you know,” she says. “She said something about jumping Tank in the locker room.”
“And you didn’t feel that way inclined?” I laugh.
She gives me an innocent smile which I see through perfectly. “I guess I could go and join them. I’m sure Tank wouldn’t mind, but Sophie’s been a little territorial lately.”
“I’m sure he wouldn’t,” I laugh, knowing damn well I walked straight into that one. “But you know that’s not what I meant.”
She smiles up at me, her beautiful eyes sparkling, blowing me the fuck away and making my chest ache with raw emotion. “I’m not sure I follow,” she says sweetly.
“You’re such a smartass,” I grin. “Are you going home or do you feel like coming out with the boys?”
“We might come out for a bit,” she says, glancing toward Jared to gauge his thoughts.
“Don’t look at me. I don’t give a shit what we do as long as there’s beer,” he shrugs.
I grab her by the hand and lace my fingers through hers, but she stiffens and looks up at me suspiciously. She’s still so nervous, but it won’t be long until she realizes I’m not going to hurt her. I squeeze her hand and watch as her gaze softens and she starts to relax.
I lead her outside as we wait for the rest of the boys to crowd around. Tank and Sophie never show, but I’m not surprised. He’s probably ten inches deep right now. We figure out our plans, and I send him a quick text knowing he’ll show up eventually.
Fifteen minutes later, we pull up outside Jaxon’s place, which he rents from the college with Shorty and Aaron. The door stands wide open, the music blaring, and the mass texts sent out have the place crammed with bodies.
Jared and Dani stick around me, but the moment Jared’s boyfriend appears in the doorway, he takes off, leaving me alone with my girl.
After refilling both our drinks, I lead her outside for some fresh air and take her over to a quiet space where we can have some privacy. Finding a chair, I sit down and pull her into my lap, rubbing my hand up and down her leg while my other hand stays firmly laced through hers. Dani twists on my lap and faces me, those green eyes still unsure but also so full of confidence as she brings her lips down to mine.
Finally, it’s her making the move.
She kisses me with everything she’s got, and the sweetest taste of strawberry vodka on her lips is enough to drive me crazy. I deepen the kiss and she moans into me before biting my bottom lip. Dani slides her hand up my shirt and spreads her fingers over my chest while she grinds herself onto my dick.
