Conner
I’m not sure why I’m pushing this. Why I want her to see her dad so bad. Maybe because there’s a small, black part of me that wants her to see what happened to him after she left. Maybe because I’m a complete asshole. Maybe because I haven’t seen her in four days and I’m on the verge of losing my goddamned mind.
Who the hell knows.
All I know is that I called my buddy, Logan, this afternoon and told him I needed to find Henley’s dad. I texted him a picture and he called me back forty-five minutes later, telling me where I can find him.
I also know that these past four days have been the hardest of my life. I keep fighting the urge to show up at the library while she’s working or at Gilroy’s when I know she’s there with Tess or on her doorstep in the middle of the night like a stray dog.
I want to be her friend. I want to give her what she wants but I don’t know how. I don’t know how to be around her without wanting to kiss her. Touch her. It was easier when we were kids because I didn’t know what doing those things to her felt like. I didn’t know what it was like to be inside her. What she sounds like when she comes. What it feels like to hold her while she sleeps.
So, yeah, I’ve been a fucking mess, these past four days. Wracking my brain, trying to figure out how to be around her without wanting her.
Which was stupid because I can’t. I know I can’t. I never could. Even when I was just a stupid kid, totally oblivious to all the ways she was going to fuck me up. So, that means I do what I do best.
I pretend to be someone else.
I pretend to be the guy who doesn’t love her.
Doesn’t want her.
I watch her cross the lobby through the passenger side window. She’s wearing jeans and boots. The kind of bulky sweater meant to hide what’s underneath. I’m sure, all told, the entire outfit cost more than I make in a month, but she’s ditched the diamonds and pearls.
“Hi.” She slides into the passenger seat next to me, giving me a nervous smile. I like to think she’s nervous about the fact that we’re about to go see her father and not the fact that she knows I’m about three seconds away from throwing my ride into park and dragging her into the backseat.
“Hey.” I let my gaze coast over her. Freckled face scrubbed clean of make-up. Hair pulled back into a simple ponytail. Cheeks pink from the crisp autumn air. Dark eyes wide and nervous.
One second, I’m fine. The next, I’m hard enough to break boulders with my cock. I look away from her, hoping against hope it’ll help me form more than one-syllable words. Because right how that’s all I’m working with. Words like fuck.
Lick.
Come.
Kiss.
“Are we going to go somewhere or…”
Shit.
