Page 46 of Not You Again
“I know what this is.” He crossed his arms. “You’re trying to trick me into kissing you so you can once again chalk changes in the time up to us. Am I right?”
“I mean, me being right would be awesome.” Carly pursed her lips. “But also? It’s been a long time for me with anyone else. I know a lot of people in the loop just hook up with someone new every day, but that kind of scares me. So it’s just... again, a long time. I haven’t had a lot of options here.”
Carly finally took a breath, locked eyes with him and added, “If you don’t want to kiss me, I totally understand. But I’d be more than okay with it.”
Adam swallowed. So Carly was lonely. He was lonely, too. They both had already kissed each other. What was once more?
“Fuck it,” he said. He dropped the bag and his hand reached for her. His knuckles brushed against the line of her jaw as he tilted her face up to admire her full pout.
“Is this okay?” he asked. Unlike the other times, this wasn’t strictly in the name of science. And, well, maybe earlier wasn’t for science, either, he supposed. But if he was getting the opportunity to kiss Carly properly, then he was going to make sure they both enjoyed every second of it.
Carly’s breaths came out quick and she nodded her head. Adam pushed her against the library wall and boxed her in with his arms. She bit her lower lip and he let out a moan in her mouth as she rocked her body into his hardness. He moved against her, and she whimpered as his thumb found her nipple and flick, flick, flicked it.
“Still okay?” Adam asked.
“I don’t think you need to ask anymore.” Carly laughed. “Never been more okay.”
He was exactly where he wanted to be, too. Having Carly’s nails scratch down his back suddenly made the library his favorite place in the world.
“Is this what I have to do to get you to be nice to me?” His fingertips trailed down the curve of her hip and she shivered. “Touch you here?”
“Is this what you think being nice is?” Her teeth sank into his bottom lip.
One of his knees slipped between her legs to spread them apart, then gently maneuvered to her center and skimmed the outside of her panties. He longed to know if she was wet.
He pinched her nipple. “Your mouth tastes like peppermint, but what does the rest of you taste like?”
“Woah.” Carly laughed. “How long did it take you to come up with that line? Not complaining, just impressed.”
She didn’t protest when he began to lift the hem of her dress, a slow rise of the fabric up her skin. His lashes fluttered wildly at the sight of her full thighs, and eventually her panties. “You told me not to ask, but isthisokay?”
“Please just find out if I taste like peppermint everywhere,” she practically begged.
Who was he to deny her?
Adam tried to hide his grin as he hooked his thumbs into the top of her panties and brought them down until they were fully off. And then there was Carly, open and ready. Her chest rose and fell with deep, anticipatory breaths.
This was a lot, all at once, but just seeing her in this state of wanting scrambled any sensible thoughts he might have had. Thoughts like...
You barely know this person.
It’s getting dark and you should head home.
This is a public library and anyone could walk in.
Instead, his only thought was what to do to make Carly come. He dragged the back of his knuckles up, up, up her leg and across her thigh. Then he brushed over her clit with the pad of his thumb. Again. Again. Again. She twitched against his touch, letting out surprised gasps.
He hadn’t even revealed what he could do with his tongue. Adam got on his knees to show exactly how excited he was. Carly’s eyes fluttered as he licked her inner thigh, slowly making his way closer until she took a sharp inhale as he reached the center of her. She knocked her knee to the side to let him inch in. He held her hips steady with a hand and sucked the bud of her clit into his mouth.
He pulled back only to blow a cool breath against her warmth, and he watched her shiver. He was playing with her now. She was a toy he was batting around, seeing how far she’d let him go, and he was really enjoying the game. His hand palmed her ass as he licked inside her.
“Oh, God,” she said.
She did not taste like peppermint; she was salty and deliciously soft. He circled her clit with his tongue and she moaned. The hand that had been on her ass moved to put a finger inside her. Adam gently found his way in, pulled out, then in again. He licked and sucked at her bud as he found the very deepest part of her. Carly let out a groan as he brought her closer to the edge. Just as he’d played with her before, he was also playing with her now. As each time she got close, he pulled her back and then ramped her up again only to stop before she was too far gone.
Carly’s body began to tighten. “I’m going to...” she started to say.
His thumb rubbed slow circles on her as wave after waveof an orgasm rolled through. At some point, her body relaxed. Adam gave a mischievous kind of smile.
