Chapter Thirteen

“I’m just going to run upstairs and get my swimming bag while the daily report is printing and then we can head to the pool.”

Gabe nods and backs out of the office so I can get past him. I lean down for a quick kiss, but somehow it turns into a lingering one, complete with his hands on my ass.

It’s been a good week. We’ve spent a lot of time together. Nearly all of our time together, in fact. The only moments I’ve been by myself are when I’m asleep. He can’t get to my place, and his parents are always around at his. Sure, they left us alone for an hour on Thanksgiving, but I have the feeling that was a special holiday treat or something, because Gabe hasn’t invited me back to his place any more than I’ve invited him up to mine.

We kiss and absently fondle in the office and behind the front counter during the day, and let things go a little further in the van at night. And as nice as that is, I can tell we are both wishing to be lying next to each other on a bed like a regular couple. I’ve thought about getting a motel room, but talking about that means talking about having sex and if I’m not ready to go there and if he isn’t mentioning anything … I can wait. I am used to waiting. Or at least not caring about waiting for sex. Of course, I’d never wanted Andy the way I want Gabe. I want all of him, every experience, every and any way I can have him.

Not that I’m going to tell him that either. The guy really does have more confidence than is necessary.

“The seniors are going to think something’s the matter if we’re late to class,” I say, muffled, my mouth still half engaged with his.

“Uh huh. That’s totally what’s got you squirming to get out of here.” Gabe squeezes my ass again. “I think you’re having ideas about climbing onto this chair, straddling me and showing me why you’re really the boss, but it’s scaring you.”

Okay, so maybe I read him wrong.

“Oh, is that what you’d like me to do? Right here to the thrum of the printer spitting out the dailies? Just ride you like a—”

“Brynn. I need to speak with you.”

I stand up so fast I see stars. Gabe’s hands fly off me.

“Hi Mom,” I say, brushing my mussed up hair off of my face. “I didn’t know you were coming in today. The reports are just about done printing.”

Mom looks down at Gabe with a steely stare. “If you don’t mind, I need to speak with my daughter in private. Perhaps you could go tidy up the front. It’s looking subpar.”

Gabe gives me a wide-eyed look and then angles his chair so that he can roll forward through the door. “Excuse me, Mrs. Garrett. I’ll get right on that.”

“The cleaning supplies are under the vanity in the restroom.
