Chapter 16

Drew

I cut my morning run short. Knowing Drew was asleep in my bed made it impossible to think about anything else.

The camper was still and quiet when I went in. I pulled aside the curtain to the small bedroom and saw Drew still curled up on her side asleep.

Part of me wanted to leave her sleeping and ride with Murph if we went out today. But I had to find out if something was wrong. She’d gotten so wasted last night that I was worried about her now.

I went to a kitchen cabinet and pulled out a bottle of Tylenol, opening it and dumping two into my hand. Then I took a bottle of water from the fridge and walked into the bedroom.

“Drew,” I said softly, sitting down on the side of the bed. She stirred and groaned.

Her blond hair was pooled on the white pillowcase. I reached out and brushed a hand over it, finding it as soft as I’d expected. I’d slept with several dozen women over the years, but I’d never felt the intimacy that was tugging at my chest in this moment.

“Mmm…Aiden.” Her eyes slid open and she squinted as she focused on me. My cock responded to the sound of her saying my name in a sleepy tone and I shifted to adjust myself.

“Morning,” I said.

“My head,” she croaked.

I reached for her hand and dropped the pills into it. “Take those,” I said, opening the bottle of water for her.

She sat up and cringed. “I feel like…death.”

“Six drinks’ll have that effect.”

“Did I drink that much?”

I nodded.

She took the pills with a swallow of water and then reached for her temple. “Oh, God. I did. And then I puked in the woods. And you carried me.” She looked around, realizing where she was. Her eyes widened in horror.

“Don’t fucking ask me if we slept together, Drew,” I cautioned. “You know me better than that.”

Her expression relaxed. “Sorry.”

“You want to hang out here today instead of chasing? I can go out with the others.”

“No,” she said, sighing. “I need to get up and going. This’ll teach me not to drink like that again.”

I smiled, my gaze roaming over her messy hair and the black circles of makeup under her eyes. On her, the fresh-out-of-bed look was sexy.

“What’s going on with you?” I asked, leaning a hand on the mattress so I could get a little closer to her. “It’s not like you to drink that much. Was it because of what happened with us yesterday?”

Drew gave a hum of amusement. “You mean when we jumped into a ditch to avoid death? Or when you kissed me so well I almost orgasmed? Or when I flipped my shit because you were changing a tire?”

“Orgasmed?”

Fuck storm chasing. I wanted to climb on top of her and take yesterday’s kiss all the way.

She looked down at the bed. “I guess it was just everything. I rarely feel overwhelmed, but I did yesterday.”

I nodded, my stomach sinking. It was all over her face—she regretted the kiss.
