Chapter 8:
The Next Morning
I wake in Annabethâs bed, naked and alone.
As I sit up, the previous night flashes through my mind. Images of our limbs intertwining and Annabethâs beautiful face contorted with pleasure floods my thoughts. Iâm instantly exhilarated.
All this time, Annabeth thought she was flirting, while I thought she hated me. Typical of me to expect a woman to be instantly charmed by my smile and status. Iâm so used to women wanting me or wanting something from me. It wasnât until last night that I realized how exhausted I was from doing what others wanted instead of reaching for what I actually wantedâcraved, in fact.
I look around the room for something to wear, then remember my room is across the hall. I tiptoe to my bag, find a pair of sweatpants, and slip them on. As I inch down the stairs, I hear Annabeth humming while the smell of bacon wafts toward me from the dining room table.
As I approach her from behind, I notice sheâs wearing that baggy UCLA Berkeley sweatshirt⦠and nothing else. The shirt reaches just below her butt, her cheeks peeking through as she reaches for a mug on a high shelf. Lord help me, she is stunning.
She jumps as I wrap my arms around her and inhale her neck. She turns around and runs her hands through my bedhead.
âMorning, gorgeous.â She says.
âMorning.â I kiss her, bending her back and lifting her thigh. She pushes me away and shakes her finger.
âNot fair.â I gesture to her outfit and lean back on the kitchen island.
âI could say the same thing.â She points at my pants, my sculpted hip bones stretching out over the waistband.
She winks at me and turns back to the scrambled eggs on the stove.
âBut Iâm hungry.â I whine.
âBreakfast is almost ready.â
âNot for breakfast,â I whisper in her ear as I approach her again.
She tries to turn around again, but I donât let her. Instead, I spin her, pressing our bodies onto the kitchen island. I reach under her sweatshirt and gently rub her between her thighs. She exhales loudly, still trying to face me, but I have her pinned between me and the counter.
âWell, if youâre really that hungry...â she trails off and reaches behind her and into my pants, stroking me. I growl loudly, and before I know it, Iâve spread her legs, bent her over, and slipped inside her. She gasps every time I thrust, and we both finish so quickly that I collapse on top of her, both of us lazily lying face down on the cold granite countertop.
âOkay, Scott. If weâre going to keep this up, Iâm going to need to refuel.â She props herself upward and shoos me away as she turns back to her eggs. âTheyâre burnt.â
âNo, theyâre just well done.â I say, looking over her shoulder at the once golden eggs, now brown. âThey look great. Letâs eat!â
But before I can move, Annabeth turns around, wraps her arms around me, and buries her face in my chest, breathing me in.
