In the middle of the chemical engineering department.

I drew away from Jacob, even though my heart hammered and my mind reeled from our kiss.

Declan stood in front of us. “You two are lucky I’m the one who walked in.”

“Uh, so you’ll never guess?—”

Declan adjusted his glasses. “Jacob was the secret admirer the whole time?”

I blinked. “Did you know?”

“Obviously. After you showed me the note on the first one. It’s Jacob’s handwriting.”

Mortification prickled through me. “Why did both of you let me blather on when you knew the whole time?”

Declan shrugged. “I thought you were having fun solving a mystery. I didn’t want to spoil it for you.”

“It’s not the ending of a book, dumbass.” God, I could strangle Declan sometimes. “At least I know now.” I glanced over at Jacob. An adorable flush spread across his cheeks, and his lips were swollen from making out with me. He was so broad and furry, his hair thick, and goddamn, I wanted to find the nearest dark corner and bend over for him. Preferably somewhere that I didn’t need to hold back my screams.

“So, what does this mean?” Jacob asked.

Lord, he’d put himself out there enough. It was my turn to step up. “It means you’re my boyfriend.” I sidled up and walked my fingers up his chest, loving the way his pupils dilated and a heavy breath puffed out. “And it definitely means I’m spending the weekend at your place.”

“Yes, and yes,” he said, his tone a little breathless. “God, I need the weekend to start now.”

I couldn’t agree more.

ChapterFour

The rest of the workday was excruciatingly long, and I spent half of it hiding an erection beneath my desk. We both escaped to the men’s bathroom a few times for more make-out sessions, but those only got me hotter, not slaked my thirst. And thirsty I was. Even the way Jacob hunched over his laptop and typed was sexy. He had thick fingers, and I was flat out obsessed with discovering what filthy things he could do to me.

From the start of our friendship, he’d shown me his care. He’d always made me feel important, whether it was taking interest in the books I read or checking in on me during lunch. I’d just shut off my crush early on because he’d been in a relationship.

However, now that I knew he was into me too? Game, set, and match, he was mine.

The clock switched over to five p.m.

“Done, done, done.” I shot up from my seat. Adrenaline percolated through me.

“Want to ride home with me?” Jacob asked.

“Yes. Who needs clothes? I’m not planning on wearing them all weekend,” I said, and Jacob’s blush sent a thrill through me. God, he was so delicious.

“Guys, I’m right here,” Declan said. “This is going to be nauseating, isn’t it?”

“Deal with it.” I slid my messenger bag on my shoulder and slipped my hand into Jacob’s. The soft look he gave me melted my insides. “Come on. Let’s go enjoy our weekend.”

We hustled out of the building posthaste, not bothering to say good-bye to our other coworkers. They could suck it. I had a mission, and it was to get Jacob stripped down and inside me as fast as humanly possible.

“Excited?” he asked, his low, amused voice sending a shiver through me.

“Hell yes.” I all but tugged him toward his Jeep. “I’m pretty sure you’re aware by now I’m a slutty bottom, and I’m hoping you’re okay with that.”

“Beyond. I can’t wait to fuck you.” He leaned in and pressed a kiss against the side of my neck. A shiver rushed through me, and my cock grew a bit harder. Mmph, yeah, we needed to leave.

He unlocked the door, and we both hopped into the front seats. Seeing Jacob settled into the driver’s seat, his large hands on the wheel and looking all competent and hot was doing something to me. Though to be fair, pretty much every movement he made did something to me. He started the car and got on the road, though thankfully we wouldn’t have too long of a drive. I’d only been to Jacob’s place once or twice while he’d been dating Sara, but I remembered it was close to our work.

“So, when did you start making chocolates?” I asked. “Unless those were store-bought?”
