ANDERS
We were both sticky with mistakes I didnât want to regret the moment my head stopped spinning. Dizzy, I pressed a hand to the wall and let the last few minutes resonate, let the heat of Ethanâs skin sink into my pores. I wanted his scent to live inside my lungs. Wood and rain and sex. He circled the pad of his thumb around the head of my cock, and I sucked in a breath, sensitive to the touch. I lowered my hand and trapped his wrist with my fingers.
âToo much?â he asked and gave me a cocky smile.
I wanted to take him to my room and fuck him until he begged me to come.
Too much.
He had no idea.
Drawing in a deep breath, I tried to clear his heady scent from my muddled brain. My efforts in vain, I released his wrist and pulled my pants to my hips. âWe should get cleaned up.â
He took a step back, his dark eyes losing some of the confidence I admired. Ethan knew what he wanted and took it without offering excuses. I, on the other hand, required a half bottle of booze. My courage was weighted in percent by volume.
âYeah⦠probably a good idea,â he said, and I didnât miss the anxious way he watched me, most likely waiting for me to shut down.
I didnât blame him. The panic was there, hiding under the surface, dulled by the blush of his cheeks and the afterglow of an orgasm. It scratched at my skin, all the worry and unease of letting someone new into my space, offering him a weapon to use. But then Ethan smiled at me, and I couldnât look away.
âCome on, we can take a quick shower.â His perfect smile fell, and the color in his cheeks paled. âOr not.â I gave his shoulder a gentle squeeze. âHey⦠we donât have to shower together. I donât expect anything if ââ
âI knowâ¦â He stepped away from my touch and buttoned his pants. âI can clean up in the guest bathroom or whatever.â
âAre you sure? Youâre kind of a mess.â
âSo are you⦠itâs kind of hot,â he said and pressed a quick kiss to my lips. âAll I need is a sink and towel and Iâm good.â
âLuckily, I have both.â I leaned down and grabbed his sweater from the floor. âFollow me.â
I led us back to my bedroom and opened the door. I was halfway to my bathroom when I realized he wasnât right behind me anymore. Turning, I found him in my doorway, face blank and staring straight through me.
âEthan?â
He didnât answer, his chest rising and falling in a quick succession. His entire body was rigid with his hands balled into fists at his sides. In the silence, everything clicked into place. Earlier heâd shot me down when I mentioned my bedroom, but Iâd figured his resistance had been related to anxiety and not wanting to take things further than heâd been comfortable. And then everything in the hallway about the shower and the guest bathroom.
