Page 5 of Steeling Her
All I say is Maya’s name for him to understand and leave it alone. He leans forward to stand up, looking down at me he asks, “I’m going to look at the talent, you want to come?”
I shake my head and reply, “Maybe later. I want to sit and drink for a while first.”
He shrugs and comments, “Suit yourself, more for me.” Walking off back into the foyer, I spot Maya and her posse gathered over at the wall opposite to where me and the guys are sitting. Some were sending me their best glares. I’m pretty sure I’ve slept with all of her friends. So I tip my bottle towards them, acknowledging that they’re staring at me.
Then I see a girl walk in and she catches my eye immediately. A tight red dress hugs her curvy hips, accentuating her tiny waist. She’s wearing Skyscraper heels and us clasping onto her bag like her life depends on it. Nice breasts too, I can tell they’re real. Not too big, but perky, along with a tight ass and toned legs that are to die for. Damn, this girl. Sitting on the edge of the couch, I’m waiting for her head to turn around so I can see her face. All I see is her long wavy brown hair that flowing down her back, making me want to pull on and bend her over.
“Turn around,” I whisper to myself while taking another sip of the beer. “Turn around,” I repeat and, finally, she lets me see her stunning face. I feel my eyes widen and my brows shoot up. My breath catches in my throat at the sight of her. Her striking blue eyes fall on mine as we stare at each other. I see the her cheeks blush and she quickly looks away from me. She’s shy. I like shy.
Her plump lips that are so moist, making me want to pull her in and kiss her. She has high cheekbones, and her biting down on her lip is making them stand out even more. All I’m thinking about is locking on to those luscious lips.. Tasting her—tasting both sets of lips.
“Hey, red dress!” I hear Ryan speak up beside me on the couch. Her head snaps to him and then looks behind her. She looks at me, then back to Ryan, then points to her herself. “Yeah, you, come here. You look a little lost? Wanna come sit here?” He pats his knee, making her own eyes widen in shock.
She slowly shakes her head and says, “Um, n-no thank you. I’m just trying to find my friends.”
She waves her hand and starts to walk away until Ryan stands up and says, “Let me help you. I know my way around?”
I know what he’s trying to do, but I saw her first. “Leave her alone, Ryan,” I order him, keeping my eyes on her. Her eyes once again land back on me, and I can’t tear my gaze away from her. She’s sexy as hell, and she looks nervous. I stand up to allow her to check me out and was about to say something to her, but TJ interrupts me.
“Look who I found,” he says with a huge grin and an arm over Haley’s shoulders.
What the fuck?
“Haley! What the fuck are you doing here?” I put my anger into words. I see the girl snap her head around to my sister. My sister does the same to her.
“Carter! Thank God! I couldn’t find you! I thought you went back to the dorm. I was going to call you but I didn’t have your number! I’ve been looking for you everywhere.” She shakes herself off of TJ and makes a run over to the girl. Carter? Her name is Carter? Fuck, that’s hot.
Both are wrapped up in a hug. I can see her smile and relief on her face. How does she know my sister?
“I just came in now. I was going to come find you guys. This guy was going to help me.” She points over to Ryan standing there smiling at her. He only wanted to help her to get in her underwear. But she looks so naive.
“How do you two know each other?” Hearing a familiar voice. Oh wait, shit, that was mine. I press my teeth at how creepy I sounded. Dammit Nick, you had to ask that didn’t you?
“Carter, this is my brother, Nick. Nick, this is Carter, my new roommate.”
Roommate? Fuck! Why? Why does she have to be my sister’s roommate? I turn my head around and take a sip, mumbling “Fuck” to myself as I stretch out my hand for her to shake, stepping a little forward, and she does. Feeling her skin on mine turns me on even more. I’m in trouble.
“Hi, nice to meet you, Carter,” I tell her, staring into her crystal blue eyes. She has the bluest eyes I’ve ever seen in my entire life. Now I’m starting to sound like a girl. Fuck, Nick, act like a guy.
“Nice to meet you too, Nick,” she mumbles averting her eyes around the room taking a step back from me. Is she scared or nervous? The way she’s says my name takes me back a little. It just rolled of her tongue so naturally. So perfectly.
“That’s TJ, Nick’s best friend. All of these guys play football for this college—”
“Football?” she interrupts my sister, surprisingly enough. She seems shy, but she can voice an opinion. She looks around to each of us while Haley nods her head skeptically at her reaction. So she has a thing for football players? Hey, I can try use that to my advantage.No Nick, she’s your sisters roommate.
Seeing her face turn nervous, she backs out and walks away from the group. What the hell? That’s one way to hook up with a football player. What’s her tactic? I’ve never seen this. She just walked away from all of us, leaving us in shock—leaving us wanting more.
“Is she alright?” I ask Haley, watching her tiny frame leave the room and getting a few of the guys’ attention, all eyes watching her perky butt move from side to side while she leaves quickly. That’s a good ass right there. I press the rim of the bottle to my lips and appreciate the sight.
“She’s just a little . . . shy. She’s super nice and cool! Her mom did our furnishings in our dorm room! And theres more stuff on its way too!” Trying to find her in the crowd, I catch TJ’s eyes and he smirks at me, knowing I’m looking for her. I roll my eyes and walk away from the group as well. Coming back to the kitchen, I bend down to get another beer and as I look up to find the opener, I see a red dress head out the back.
I quickly stand up readying myself to follow her but Maya stands in my way. “Nick, baby, I want to go home. Come stay in my place tonight. Alice won’t be coming back so we can be as loud as we want. None of the girls will say anything!”
Not looking at her, I stare at the door and see red once more. She comes back inside and starts to mumble something to herself. Her face turns into a smile but I can see that she’s not comfortable being here. Taking another deep breath, she turns her head to see me watching her. She begins to panic again.
She takes off again into another room. What is up with her? I’m so confused. Usually when I tell a girl I play football, they’re all over me; not running away from me.
“NICK! Fucking hell! I’m right here!” I snap my attention back to the kinky blonde standing in front of me. Seeing red in her eyes, I blink, just staring at Maya. I need to get laid.
