Chapter 12

Stud

Itake a hard pull off my beer. “You know where I’m at with this.” I get up and enter the kitchen needing to put some space between us before I jump her on the couch. That’s not what she needs from me right now as much as I want to take things to the next level.

“Maxi,” she says and leaves the conversation hanging.

“What about her?”

“Did you have a thing with her?”

“Does it matter?” I get the feeling she’s looking for a reason to push me away.

“I should have said something earlier. But its not really my place.”

“Babe, if you got something on your mind, I don’t ever want you to hold back. Not with me.”

“I ran into her today. She was buying a pregnancy test, and she asked me not to say anything to you about it.”

“Okay and?” I finish my beer in one drink and toss the bottle in the trash can.

“So I need to know before I allow myself to get invested is it yours?”

“Fuck no. Never had my dick in her. She’s almost given me a blowjob that’s the truth. Last night I got the call to come tow your car before anything happened. No bullshit.”

Her lips tip into a smile. “She made it seem like you guys were…I don’t know.”

I cross the room and go to my knees in front of her. I take Gianna’s hands in mine. “Maxi has been trying to get at me a while now. I almost fell into that trap, but I didn’t. Her pride’s wounded. I kicked her out of my bed for you. She saw an opportunity to cause a rift andtook it. She’s on her way out. Prez won’t put up with her mouthing off at Old Ladies.”

“Good to know.”

“Anything else you want to know?”

I shake my head. “I’m going to get ready for bed. Where’s my stuff?”

“Back bedroom.” I get up and help her to her feet. “Figured you could put your stuff wherever you want it tomorrow. You want the shower first or second? Or we can share.”

“I’ll go first, but nice try.” I leave her to it and grab another beer to down while I flip through the Tv channels to pass the time, trying to ignore the fact that Gianna is getting naked down the hall.

I give it time for her to be in the shower, toss my beer, and head to the bedroom. On my way I stop to check the thermostat. Light glows from under the bathroom door and I find myselfcheesing big time. The scent of all her girly body wash and shampoo floats down the hallway. In the bedroom her clothes are strung about, and I nearly trip over a box of shoes.

Never thought having a woman’s shit around would make me this damn happy but it feels nice. I shrug my shirt over my head and toss it at the laundry basket by the closet. I spent all day moving shit and cleaning, hoping Gianna wouldn’t put up a fight. Would tie her to my bed if I had to. Hell, I still might.

I empty my pockets onto the dresser and drop my pants. Flicking on the lamp on the nightstand I then reach up and tug the chain on the ceiling fan to turn the main lights off, while leaving the fan rotating. It may be winter, but I still need the fan on while I sleep.

As I turn down the blanket and sheets, I hear the shower shut off. Anticipation pricks along my skin, wondering what she wears tobed. If I’m lucky not much of anything. Though I’ll take Gianna any way I can have her.

The bathroom door opens, and I get settled on my side of the bed.

“Hey,” her voice comes out soft and low.

I take a long look at her. Gianna is standing there in these fuzzy green pants with pink hearts printed on them and the matching tank top is stretched over her tits, her nipples showing through the thin fabric and I’ve never seen a sexier woman.

“You have a spare blanket? I can take the couch.”

“We both know you aren’t sleeping on the damn couch. Stop playing and get over here.”

“I don’t think it’s a smart idea.”
