But I held back, letting her decide how quickly to move things. She made her choice, pulling me over to the bed. Sofia broke the kiss, looking right at me as she shucked off her jacket and pulled her soft green sweater over her head.

Fuck.

I’d died and gone to heaven. That was the only explanation for the vision standing before me.

“Cole, you have too many clothes on.” She chuckled. Hooking her fingers into her pants and pushing them down her hips.

“Shit, yeah, okay.” I made quick work of stripping out of my clothes, my smooth game completely obliterated the second I saw her body.

I’d seen it before, in the summer, swimming in the Bennets’ pool. But this was different. Then, I didn’t get to touch. I only had my fantasies, of which she’d always been a starring attraction.

Now I got to lay my hands on her skin. I got to map her curves with my fingertips, and if I was really fucking lucky, my mouth and my tongue too.

Fuck.

My dick ached behind my boxer briefs. As if she heard my thoughts, Sofia’s gaze dropped to my crotch and her eyes widened.

“Oh.” It was a small, surprised sound.

“I… uh, sorry.” I ran a hand through my hair and down the back of my neck. “But you get me so fucking hot, Sofe.”

“Show me,” she whispered. “I want you to show me, Cole.”

Sofia stepped into me, her hands landing on my bare chest. A bolt of heat went through me, and there was every chance this was going to be over before it even got started. I was only human though and she was a fucking dream.

One of her hands glided down my stomach and I sucked in a sharp breath. “Fuck, that feels— ah,” I groaned as she palmed me through the thin material. “Sofe, babe,” I choked out. “If you don’t stop that, this isn’t going to last very long.”

She looked up at me, lust and longing glittering in her eyes. “Sorry.”

A deep rumble of laughter vibrated in my chest. “Get on the bed,” I said. “I want to look at you.”

“I…”

I cupped the back of her neck. “You don’t need to be nervous with me, okay? You want to stop, we stop. You want to do something else; we do something else. Whatever you need, Sofe, I’ve got you.”

CHAPTERSEVENTEEN

Sofia

My body trembledas I lay on the bed, Cole’s hungry gaze following me.

I couldn’t believe I was doing this. But when he’d brought up the list, all I could think about was all the silly teenage things I hadn’t experienced yet.

Fooling around at parties.

Staying out all night.

Skinny dipping in the lake behind our house.

Letting a boy go down on me.

That last one was stuck in my mind on repeat. Because from the intense way Cole was looking at me, he was starving, and I was the only thing on the menu.

“Can I touch you?” He crawled over me, letting his arms take most of his weight, but the feel of his warm skin against mine was incredible.

“If you don’t, I’ll never forgive you.” My lips curved, and he smiled back.

His body was a work of art, one I was well acquainted with from spending summer after summer with him and Aaron and our friends. I ran my hands up the hard lines of his stomach and chest, loving the way his cut muscles contracted under my touch.
