"Stop laughing! This isn't funny, Professor Hunter! I just bought that." But then she started laughing too.
"I'll buy you a new one."
"Should we make a run for it? It's freezing." She unwound her legs from my waist.
I grabbed her hand and we started to run out of the water. "Oh, wait. The coast isn't exactly clear." I pointed toward theboardwalk. "Boys don't steal bikinis and run away. They stay to look."
She looked mortified. "What do we do?"
A wave crashed down behind us. I lifted her over my shoulder so it wouldn’t knock both of us over.
"Professor Hunter, put me down!"
I laughed and walked the rest of the way to shore, keeping my hand on her ass to help cover it. I wasn’t going to stay in this water a second longer or we’d probably both catch a cold. One viral ass video never hurt anyone. Besides, the kids were far away and I doubted they had any idea who I was. And if they were snapping photos, my junk was on better display than Penny’s ass.
As soon as I put Penny down, she sprinted to our towels and wrapped one around herself. I took my time. There’d been worse pictures of me in tabloids. "Penny, those boys were far away, they could barely see you."
"But they could still see me! And they probably took pictures with their phones. And they...they saw us having...well, you know."
"The highlight of their young lives, I'm sure." I began to dry off with my towel. Before I’d even run the towel through my hair, Penny was fully dressed. Without her bikini top, her nipples were on full display, trying to poke through her shirt. She folded her arms across her chest and sat down. I would have thought she was upset based on her body language, but she was smilingso hard. She was just trying to hide her very sexy nipples from me. Which wasn’t necessary at all. I took a deep breath of salt air, wondering if she felt as relaxed as I did. I pulled my boxers and shorts back on but kept my shirt off. I had a feeling she appreciated the view.
I sat down beside her and rubbed her back. "Are you ready for part two of our date?"
"That depends on what we're doing. I'm not exactly dressed to go anywhere."
"Well, how about we go to my place?" I’d told Ian that I couldn’t watch the Giant’s game with him tonight, so I hoped he wouldn’t be camped out on my couch. Rob and Isabella had already tried to ruin this day for me. But I was pretty sure even if Ian was at my place, nothing could dampen my mood. I felt…so relaxed. More so than I did in corpse pose. Or even when I ran.
Penny smiled up at me. "That sounds perfect."
I couldn’t have described it any better.
Obsessed - Chapter 29
Monday
We pulled into the parking garage of my apartment complex on the edge of Main Street.
"You live here?"
"Yes." I turned onto the third story of the parking garage and pulled into a space next to the rest of my cars.
"Your neighbors have really nice cars too."
I stepped out of the convertible. "Those are mine."
"Seriously?" She got out of the car and looked around. "All of them? One of them looks like the Batmobile!" She pointed to the one farthest away.
"Yeah. Turns out it's never very convenient to drive though. And it doesn't give me any superpowers." My smile disappeared as she pulled out a hoodie from her bag. She zipped it up and lifted the hood over her head. I shoved my hands into my pockets as I watched her. What was she doing…getting ready for a heist?
"Okay, I'm ready," she said, adjusting her hood lower.
"What, do you think I'm sneaking you in? I don't believe that anyone from the university lives here."
"Well I don't want to get caught. Someone in the lobby might see us."
I laughed and shook my head. "Okay." If this made her more comfortable. I put my hand on the small of her back and led her over to the elevator. I swiped my card in the sensor and the doors opened immediately. We stepped in and I touched the button for my apartment on the top floor. The elevator doors closed.
"Penthouse, huh?"
