Chapter Nineteen

Alexa

Sometimes perfection can be perfect hell and right now as I look into Jake’s eyes, our perfection is about to end. Even though I want him to come home with me, I’m back on a plane tomorrow. This is the life of a pilot and when there are two of us it makes for complete hell.

“Do you need to go home and get anything?” I ask him, wanting to just admit to him that I want him to come home with me now.

He shrugs his shoulders, playing it casual and I give him a cocky smirk. If he can play this game of nonchalance, so can I. We stare at each other, a silence lingering between us, but a playfulness dancing in our eyes, a battle of glances before I finally speak.

“Well, then, if you don’t know, I’m just going to get going.” I toss a thumb in the direction of the waiting bus, my eyes flicking that way too. I start to walk over, but within seconds, Jake’s trotting up behind me, his hand snaking around my waist and he pulls me into him.

With the packed crew bus watching, he kisses me. He kisses me with fervor and lust, without a care who’s watching, and my knees go weak. It’s a kiss that ignites passion, it’s a kiss that promises reality and it screams that there’s no hiding. He embraces what we’ve created over the last few weeks, no expectations, no romantic ideals, just a pure and honest connection.

Pulling back, his forehead resting against mine, my eyes closed as the rest of the world comes back into focus. His kiss says so much, comforting and telling in ways that words could never be.

“I’m coming home with you, cheeky girl, because there’s no other place I’d rather be.”

“See that. I figured you’d rather be inside me.”

He chuckles, and it’s breathy, the warm air from his mouth tickling my neck as he exhales hard.

“Or do we just save that for expensive hotel rooms and tropical islands?” I add, kissing the tip of his nose, my vulnerability shining though.

“God, I hope not or we’re going to go broke.”

Jake grabs my bag and his, toting them to the bus and as we climb aboard, the hum of conversation halts. All eyes are on us and it suddenly feels like we’re in high school again. Everyone was talking about us, watching us outside the bus and now they’re judging us. Or at least they’re judging Jake for hooking up with me.

He could do so much better.

He’s just the next Trent.

She’s hooks up with everyone.

But none of it fazes Jake, his hand on the small of my back as he guides me to the first empty seats and practically forces me to sit down. Scooting me over to the window as he slides in next to me as if he’s protecting me from the prying eyes and their nosiness.

The conversations start up again as the bus pulls away, a quiet buzzing of whispers and I can’t help but wonder if they’re talking about Jake and me.
