Chapter Twelve

After ice cream at the Dairy Freeze, Heath dropped Ollie off at his mom’s place, making sure she was actually home before telling his little brother good-bye and hustling back to Quinn’s car.

The instant the door closed behind him, he leaned over the console and planted a kiss on her lips, the contact a relief after hours of holding back. “I wanted to attack you the second you showed up tonight, but we were surrounded by parents and kids, and I knew it’d push the friends cover.”

Quinn trailed her fingertips down the side of his face. “I thought you were worried about smearing your makeup. I hear guys turn into total divas after they’ve had their beards gelled.”

His jaw dropped, and she erupted in giggles. “Little girl, I’m going to get you for that.” He tugged her to him and rubbed his whiskers against her cheek. She squealed and made a halfhearted attempt to shove him away, but then he kissed her neck, and her squeal turned into a moan.

Desire flooded his senses. He undid her seat belt and pulled her onto his lap. Good thing these windows were tinted, although for what he had in mind, he needed more room to work with.

Her hair fell over them like a dark curtain as she sank onto him, the soft touch of her lips igniting every nerve ending in his body. His elbow banged the door as he wrapped his arms around her waist.

“I feel like I’m in high school again,” she said before slipping her tongue in to meet his.

He ran his hands up her thighs, groaning when she rolled her hips. “Is there anyone at your place?”

She froze and then sat back. “My sister and her husband are staying there for another week.”

“Damn. My dad will be awake, and he’s been in a mood lately…” He was almost willing to risk it. But he couldn’t stop thinking about the house she’d grown up in and her fancy car and how his current living situation looked even worse in comparison. He already felt like a loser living at home again. She was probably used to guys who owned fancy condos with lots of square footage and high-thread-count sheets and all the stuff he didn’t have.

“We can watch a movie with my sister and her husband. It’ll be fun.”

Not compared to what I want to do.

She started back over the console, and he held her in place with his hands on her hips. “We can go to my house. Just…ignore whatever my dad says, and close your eyes till we get in my room. Maybe even after that, too. How do you feel about blindfolds?”

The fake smile came out.

“I was kidding,” he said.

“You know what? I’m starving.”

“After all that ice cream?”

She smacked his chest. “Hey, Jenny Craig. I skipped dinner, so now that I’ve had dessert, I need real food. Or more dessert. I’m not picky.” She climbed back into the driver’s seat, and his lap immediately felt empty.

“This is Hope Springs, remember? Everything’s closed after nine.
