THIRTEEN

Mick waited patiently for her acceptance. Well, maybe patiently wasn’t a good description, since he was as anxious as a school boy who was about to receive his first kiss. But if Nicole didn’t want to kiss him, he’d accept her decision... for now. Of course, he planned to talk her into it eventually.

“Mick, I... I don’t know. I’m so confused.”

He closed his eyes and rubbed his cheek against hers. “What confuses you, sweetheart?” He wrapped his arms around her, pulling her closer. Immediately, her hands rested on his chest. For a moment, he wondered if she was going to try and push him away, but so far, she hadn’t.

That was a very good sign.

“You... me... and especially this.” She sighed.

He inhaled her perfect scent of lilacs. Holding her in his arms was just so very thrilling. She fit so well against his body. He lowered his face to her neck. Big mistake. Her skin was so near, it would be impossible not to...

He brushed his lips against her neck. A shiver shook through her body, followed by a soft moan. He was a weak man. She made him weak in the worst way. He couldn’t help himself. He just had to...

Mick placed a soft kiss just under her ear. And then another... and another... until she melted in his arms.

He raised his head and looked into her dreamy eyes that were half closed, and her mouth was parted and inviting. Her eyes fluttered closed as she lifted her head. That was all he needed, and he brushed his lips over hers, feeling the quick intake of air from her mouth before he covered it completely. A moan came from her throat as she clung to him as if he would save her from drowning.

But the buzzing of his cell phone snapped them both to awareness. She was the first to pull away.

Cursing under his breath, he yanked out his phone from his pocket to see who had rudely interrupted what could have been the best kiss ever – for the second time.

Tara Browning.

Then he noticed the time. 7:15 p.m.

Once again, Nicole had made him forget about his girlfriend. That was it! He was breaking up with USA’s next top model tonight.

Suddenly the elevator doors opened, and Nicole hurried out. Grudgingly, he followed behind her. All of the lights were turned off and everyone was gone.

Nicole withdrew a set of keys from her purse and glanced at him. Her facial features were tight as she looked at his buzzing phone.

“Aren’t you going to answer that?”

“I’d rather not,” he grumbled. “I’d rather be back in the elevator with you in my arms.”

She smiled, which relaxed her face. She opened the front door. “Things happen for a reason, you know.”

“Yeah, well... I’m going to get this reason out of my life as soon as possible.”

She locked up the front door before heading toward her car. “Are we still going out to eat?”

He stopped with her beside her car. She didn’t appear as rattled as she’d been a few moments ago.
