I’m on cloud fucking nine!
The Anthem ends.
I glance down to Katie as the cheering starts again. I grab her arm, pulling her up onto the dais with me. She laughs as we hug, and the photographers take photographs of us together, biting our medals. They’re hard and don’t taste very good, but the aftertaste of gold is sweet.
Marta storms off on her own.
After showing off our medals and taking pictures for the Australian papers, Katie and I head back to the athletes’ area.

After going through all the formalities, I’m pretty wiped. I honestly just want to return to my unit and chill for a while.
I make my way back toward the athletes’ village, thinking everyone will know where to find me. Plus, the walk alone will give me time to reflect and take in what’s just happened. I stroll to the edge of the Village, and Coby steps out in front of me, breaking me from my inner thoughts. I jump slightly as he gives me a wide smile. He doesn’t say anything just grabs my hand and pulls me along with him.
I giggle. “Cobes?”
He smirks. “Shhh… I found a nook,” he whispers.
I furrow my brows. “A nook?”
He nods. “Yeah… look.” He drags me around a corner to where two walls intersect, creating a kind of hidden area. It’s not big, just enough for a couple of people to go into and hide away from the world—like a little sanctuary to conceal us.
And laying perfectly on the ground, as we walk in toward the back, where it’s dark and no one can see us, is a small bouquet of daisies. I turn back to face him, a bright smile on my face. “You continue to surprise me, sir.”
He smirks, backing me up against the brick wall and moving in front of me in the sexiest damn way. “Is that a good thing?” he asks, placing a hand on either side of my head, just like that time in the services lounge by the bathroom.
Chewing my bottom lip as those pesky butterflies dance in my stomach all over again, I smile and shrug.
“I mean, I guess,” I reply nonchalantly.
He chuckles at my sarcasm. “We can leave if you want?” he teases, moving to exit, but I wrap my arms around his waist, pulling him back to me.
“How did you find this place anyway, you creeper?”
“I went searching for a nook I could take you. Somewhere where we could be away from prying eyes. I think I’ve found it.” He leans in, rubbing his nose into my neck. My breathing hitches. His body is close to mine but not quite yet pressing against it.
“I think you might have, you sneak.”
He chuckles, running his nose up my neck and trails a light kiss on my jaw. My lips part. “We’ve both done so well and don’t have to swim now for another five days. Whatwillwe do to fill the time?” he asks suggestively.
Laughing, I run my hands up his back, sneaking under his shirt, fingering his taut muscles. My insides quiver as he trails featherlight kisses along my jaw. “We need to watch East and Caro.”
“Yes… but what about the rest of the time?”
“I’m sure we can find something to occupy our time.” I dig into his skin slightly, and he groans.
“Now you’re talking.” His kisses move closer to my mouth as my breathing increases faster and faster. My knickers are now soaking wet from him teasing me.
“But if we get caught, we could get in a shit load of trouble.”
“Then we don’t get caught.” He presses his lips to mine. Every one of his muscles clenches and moves in a perfect rhythm as he grinds against me. He fondles my cheek and grabs my hair. I dig my nails into his back, pulling him closer to me. Our tongues dance passionately and frantically. Kissing Coby is a high that I have grown to love. I could kiss him every day for the rest of my life.
My leg instinctively moves up around him, wrapping around his waist so he can move in closer. His erection presses right into my pussy as I moan slightly at the friction.
I understand we’re on the outskirts of the Village, but Coby is turning me on, and right now, I want nothing more than him. I pull his shorts down.
He pushes back from me and raises an eyebrow. “Here?”
