Icouldn’tbelievethiswaseven happening! He was really flirting with me, and talking dirty, and wanted me touching myself and he was doing the same, right now!
“Elise? Darlin’, you’re gonna fucking kill me, but it’ll be worth it. Fuck… I’m so tempted to try and sneak across the hall to your room.”
“Oh god, yes, please do it!” Has-Been let out a low frustrated growl.
“Someone always fucking shows up when I’m with you. I swear your brother knows something.”
Oh god, don’t talk about him while I’m touching myself! I let out a hiss of disappointment.
“I can’t do this now. Dammit, Has!”
He was silent for too long, then he cursed.
“Yeah, I royally fucked that up, didn’t I? I’m sorry, darlin’. We need to find a reason to get the two of us out of here for a bit. I could book us somewhere nice, get to know each other without any fuckers disturbing us.”
I pictured a pretty room at a little hotel, and was surprised to realise that I really didn’t care if the room was even nice or not. I just wanted to be with him.
“Will we ever just get to be with each other, Has?”
I could hear him moving about. Was he still touching himself, or had he gone off the boil now too? I really thought we were going to get off with each other, and yet again my fantasy had failed me. Or was it one of us doing the failing?
He cursed quietly, and I heard something fall over.
“Fuck this. I need to get out of here for a bit. Do something for me, darlin’. Get on some jeans, boots, a heavy coat or hoody, and sneak outside. Don’t get caught, and if you do, just say you needed some air. I’ll be right behind you. We’re going for a ride.”
My breath caught in my throat and my heart started thudding in my chest.
“On your bike?”
I could hear the smile in his voice when he replied.
“For starters, yeah. I’ll have a helmet for you, okay? Just get outside, and make sure that gorgeous hair is hidden under a hood or something.”
Oh my god. We were going out on his bike! I’d never even been on a motorbike because Mr Overprotective had never let me on his. Something about it being for old ladies or some rubbish. But… if I got on Has-Been’s bike… no, stop overthinking things. Just fucking get ready like he said.
I hurried around, dressing like he told me, even though it was a warm evening, and then I carefully unlocked my door and locked up quietly behind me. Instantly I was hit by a moment of panic, because behind that door I was safe, and now I was wandering the halls when someone in this clubhouse might even be the one sending me those vile messages.
I saw Has-Been’s door crack open, and he carefully peeked out and spotted me. He shot me a grin, and nodded at me. Briefly emboldened by his gesture, I headed down the hallway, moving as quietly as I could, and as I was on the first flight of stairs, I heard his door close quietly behind him. My god, we were really going to do this!
Eighteen
I’ddefinitelylostmymind, and I was dicing with death, but fuck it. I couldn’t stop thinking about her, and I didn’t want to fight my feelings for her any longer. She was a temptation I just couldn’t resist anymore, and why the hell should I?
So Stitch would hate me? He already seemed to be halfway there. The club would fragment if we fell out? Again, we were already there, and the club seemed to be just fine. Why the fuck was I sacrificing Elise’s happiness, and my own, for something that already seemed to have happened?
I shoved the door open outside, and there she was, huddled in the shadows, covered up with way too many dark clothes, her golden hair hidden away. It made her look even younger and more vulnerable, and I felt a twinge of guilt for letting myself get caught up in my desires, when I should be stronger and able to fight them.
“It’s too warm for all these clothes,” she hissed as I stepped up beside her.
“It’s not for warmth. It’s to keep you safe while we’re riding. I’d rather have you in full leathers, because damn… you’d look sexy as fuck, and you’d be even safer.”
She lowered her eyes, but her hand was suddenly grabbing at mine.
“I’ve never been on a motorbike before, Has.”
Another first I can introduce her to.Perfect.
“I’m gonna take all your virginities, babe… starting with this one. Okay here we go, this one here is mine. You’re gonna wrap yourself tight around me, and hang on like you never wanna let me go, okay?” She blinked wide eyes up at me, as she nodded slowly.
