Friend-Zoned(48)

Eyes wide, I put my ear to the door and listen.

A girl. “Oh my god.” Thump-Clink-Bang.

A guy. “Fuck, you feel good.” Moan-Groan.

The girl. “Oh God. You’re amazing!” Moan. “I still hate you. Ooooh.” Thump-Clink-Bang.

The guy. “I hate you too, pretty girl.” Groan. “Fuck me, do that again.” Groan.

I know that voice.

It’s Nat.

I look up to Nik with a hand over my mouth. His eyes are dancing. He mouths, “Ghost.”

Ghost moans again then says, “Say my name, pretty girl.” Thump-Bang-Thump.

Nat groans, “Ghost! Fuck me, Ghost!” Bang-Clink-Thump.#p#分页标题#e#

“No baby, say my name.” Clink-Bang-Moan.

Nat pants, “Ash- Asher! Oh God, Ash... Harder Ash.” Groan-Thump-Bang.

Ghost states, “Any harder and I’ll put you through the fuckin’ table!” Moan-Clink-Groan.

I giggle and Nik bursts into silent laughter. He pulls me back to his office, closes the door and we laugh hysterically.

My best friend is shtupping broody Ghost!

Nik has his arms around my waist. I hold on to the front of his shirt. We laugh til we’re in tears. When we finally stop laughing we look into each other’s faces. I stop smiling. I want him so badly. And it’s not the booze talking. I want him to kiss me right now.

Nik’s also stopped smiling. I see him swallow hard. His face serious puts a hand to my belly and pushes me back gently til my back hits the wall. His amber eyes bore into me, they search my face. He lifts a hand to the side of my neck and moves his fingers slowly up and down my collarbone. I close my eyes and shudder.

“Look at me.” He says this firmly. It’s not a request.

I open my eyes and he looks deeply into them before saying hoarsely, “I’m going to kiss you.”

HURRAH!

And he does. He lowers his face til his lips softly touch mine. I huff in a shaky breath. Neither of us moves for seconds and its torture! It seems like days. My shoulders slump and my knees weaken when his tongue darts out to trace my lips. Luckily, the wall was doing a good job at holding me up.

I gasp and he takes my weakness as an opportunity to kiss me deeply. He groans when his tongue touches mine. They dance together and I want to weep with joy.

Wow! Like… Wow!

Warmth spreads through my belly to my core.

This is the best kiss I’ve ever had, hands down. It’s amazing. Nik is amazing. His lips are soft and his tongue is wicked. Stroking mine gently and with precision.

He tastes like mint and cognac. He’s delicious. I’m lost and my hands move of their own accord. One hand cups his cheek while the other grips the lapel of his shirt. I pull him closer to me and I feel his bulge press into my belly. I unconsciously grind myself against it. I squeeze my legs together to stop the tingling. It doesn’t help.

By thunder, he’s huge!

The hand on my neck moves down my arm, around my naked lower back. He opens his palm and slides it down further into my dress. He massages my bare ass softly then grips it tight. My breath hitches and I bite back a moan. I nip his bottom lip then suck on it lightly. His other hand moves from my waist. His fingers creep up my ribs. His hand lightly cups my breast. I can’t stop it, I moan into his mouth. Nik stiffens. His hands fall to my sides then grip my hips tight.

No! Put your damn hand on my boob!

Breathing heavily he puts his forehead to mine and closes his eyes. He whispers, “I’m sorry.” It’s no more than a whisper but he may as well have yelled it at me.

He regrets kissing me. Which I suppose is good because friends don’t kiss. Like, ever.

What a crying shame.

He kisses my cheek for a full second before he turns and leaves the office.

My cheeks are flushed and I rest a hand on my heaving chest.

What the heck just happened?

I really have no idea because I’m tipsy from lust. But I know it changes everything.

Hell’s bells.

***

I make my way back to the booth. The girls, Trick, and Max are there.

Nat looks at me and I can’t help but giggle. Yep, still tipsy. She looks at me wide eyed. We’re both flushed. But at least she looks satisfied.

“Where’s Nik?” I ask Max.#p#分页标题#e#

He shrugs and responds, “Said he had an emergency to take care of, babe. Probably won’t be back tonight.”

I nod and look to the table.

He’s avoiding me.

If he thinks I’m giving up his friendship without a fight, he’s got another thing coming.

He can’t just give me four weeks of complete awesomeness and then rip it away from me because of a stupid kiss. Okay, it was an amazing stupid kiss.

I have to do something. I’m not losing Nik. I will fight for him.
