CHAPTER THIRTEEN

Hey, what are you up to?

I hit “send” on the text message and sat back nervously, waiting for Logan to respond. I’d made a little headway with him last night when he’d admitted he was jealous, but it was time to kick this thing into high gear. I had sat up this morning since six, guzzling a pot of coffee-which didn’t help with my jitters- and plotting how best to get Logan to drop the whole “employer/employee” bullshit.

My phone dinged, and I picked it up quickly, scrolling to my messages.

Not much, how about you?

I inhaled sharply, then typed Thinking about you before I could talk myself out of it. I held my breath, anxiously waiting. What if he pulled back into his shell and I once again had thrown dignity to the wind? Why am I the one pursuing this so hard when there are clearly two of us in this? My phone dinged again and my heart stopped. I held the phone to my chest, too nervous to check the screen. I held it there for a minute before quickly glancing at the screen through slitted eyes.

Oh yeah? Good thoughts, I hope.

I exhaled hard, relieved, then grinned broadly like an idiot. I pondered my next text, not wanting to overstep the thin line we were treading.

Oh yeah. Good thoughts. I frowned and backspaced.

Yeah. Mostly thoughts about your lips, I retyped, hitting send immediately again.

It was a bold move, but I was hoping for a big pay off. I waited more than five minutes for a response, alternating between chugging my coffee and biting my fingernails down to the cuticles. The ellipsis that indicated that he was typing appeared, then disappeared. He typed something again thirty seconds later, then backspaced again. I threw my phone down on the couch and stood up, pacing between my living room and kitchen. I heard another “ding” and ran from the kitchen to the couch, scooping up my phone lightning fast.

Oh really? And what exactly are my lips doing in these thoughts of yours?

I tapped my phone against my chin, thinking. I’d never been particularly good at sexy talk- just typing these naughty words left me a little embarrassed. I was getting self-conscious and I didn’t want to sound stupid. I threw caution to the wind, however, and said the first thing that popped into my mind.

They’re kissing their way down my neck again, the way they did last night.

This time I only had to wait half a minute for a response.

They did enjoy being there. I don’t think they’d mind being in other places either. Actually, they might even prefer being in other places.

My eyebrows shot up, and I typed my response quickly.

Where else would they like to explore?

Hm. Probably your collarbone. Interesting choice, but effective. My fingers traced my collarbone absently as I typed back.

Well, I do enjoy that. It’s a very sensitive area.

And then they’d make their way downward- but not too far down. I don’t want to get too far ahead of myself.
