“You alright, Baby?” I clear my throat and sit up straighter in my seat.

“Um, yeah. Perfect,” Seer glances at me before returning his eyes to the road.

“Flashback?” His tone is teasing, but my cheeks still blush from the heat that is crossing through my body.

“Gods, yes.” He chuckles as I fan my face.

“We should talk while we drink our coffee. I need to know where you’re at with all this.” He lifts his hand off my thigh, and I miss it instantly.

He points between us and then makes a circle to envision his words before returning his hand to its previous position.

“Sure, talking I’m good at.” I smile to hide my relief that he’s still touching me.

He parks the car in the campus lot and points to the mobile coffee stand. Phoebe is in a short black dress and knee-high combat boots. Her hair is in space buns, and a chain runs from her left ear to her nose ring.

“Doesn’t she get hot?” I tilt my head at the way the glittery fishnet stockings bring attention to her thighs and gasp when my mind wonders how the fabric would feel against my cheeks.

“Baby, those noises and that look are a dangerous combo. Unless you want me to fuck you in this car which I’m not opposed to, then I need you to think pure thoughts while in public.” My mouth pops open at that last statement.

“Pure?” I raise an eyebrow in challenge.

“Okay, fair. How about less sexual?” I snort.

“Wrong crowd,” I open my door and leave him in the car, watching me with a stunted look on his face.

I close the door and lean down to look at him through the open window.

“I didn’t work so hard for a degree in human sexuality thinking pure thoughts, Fabien. I was a virgin, not a nun.” I wink and turn to walk up the slight hill to where Phoebe is pouring coffees like her life depends on it.

“Hey Baby,” She smiles at me, and I stumble.

“Pour us two larges,” Seer says as he passes me and kisses her in front of the whole quad.

Good job, Leah. Why would she be addressing you like that?

My inner voice stops berating me when my phone rings, making me frown when I see a Pennsylvanian number.

“Hello?” I wait for a response, but no one talks before the call disconnects.

“Weird,” I frown at the screen until a coffee cup is placed in my line of sight.

“Thanks,” I smile up at Seer and take the caffeine I desperately need.

“Hope you like pumpkin spice. She just added it to the menu.” I grin at his words.

Unlike others who despise the flavor, I love it.

“So yummy,” I take a slow slip and close my eyes in pure delight.

It’s hot, spicy, and has just the right amount of sweetness. It’s a cup full of autumn joy, and I savor it on my tongue before swallowing.

“Well, fuck. I’ll have whatever you just gave her.” I open my eyes in shock to find the line at the coffee cart all staring at me.

“Good choice. This is like an orgasm in a cup.” They all chuckle at me.

“Interesting,” Seer says, taking a sip of his own.

“It’s good, but I’ve tasted better. I’m sure Kai would agree with me.” I choke on the sip I’m taking, and he gently rubs my back.
