Chapter Twelve

An arm slides around my waist and pulls me close. Exhaustion consumes me as I nuzzle my head against Dex’s chest. His alluring scent of man and musk blends with the delicate fabric softener my mom use’s on the sheets, dragging my memories back to our youth when we used to make forts in the back yard. My sleepy voice cracks as I speak. “We need to get ready for school. You should probably sneak out before someone realizes you’re here. I doubt mom would think much about it, she’s too used to seeing you around here at all hours, but Jimmie is a different story.”

Dex chuckles and pulls me closer. I blink a few times, willing my sleepy eyes to stay open. I lick my parched lips. “I’m serious. As nice as this is, you need to go.”

Dex props up on the heap of pillows stashed behind him. Even tired with his hair standing in all directions and his eyes heavy with sleep, he looks downright sexy. So not fair. “You can’t hide me forever,” Dex warns, his face so close that if I lean in an inch our mouths would touch. “I won’t be your dirty little secret. In fact, why don’t we go tell everyone the good news right now?”

I poke my finger into his chest, trying not to think about how bare and muscular it is. Or how warm it felt against me moments ago. I shake my head to clear it. Hormones and lust are a hard thing to combat and my anger isn’t making much a dent in mine. “Don’t try bullying me, Dexter. You might scare most people with your huffing and puffing, but I’ve never fallen for your shit and I don’t plan to start now.” I peer at him through my lashes. “The idea of there being an us is still new to me. Don’t be so damn pushy when all I’m trying to do is keep my brother from getting hurt. I honestly don’t know the best way to break it to him. I don’t want him mad at us.”

“I respect your need to shelter Jimmie, but he isn’t a child and the longer you hide this from him, the more hurt he’ll be when he finds out.”

I absorb his words, letting them rattle around in my brain for a moment before relaxing in his arms.

I’m half expecting him to throw me an ultimatum, which would be a nightmare, instead he surprises me by being sweet. “I’ll leave, but first, tell me how you’re feeling.” His chest rises as he speaks, making my body lift with it. I place the palm of my hand over his bare skin and relish the way his heart beats a steady rhythm against it.

“Better but tired. I wish I could play sick and stay curled up in bed all day. If I didn’t have a test in history I would do just that. Maybe catch up on some television, eat too much junk food, and be a complete bum.
