My brain finally wakes the heck up and takes control of my mouth before I blurt out any more zingers.
“It was good,” I answer, grateful for the safe subject. “I’ll be so happy once the grand opening is over.” Boy, is that an understatement. Saturday can’t come soon enough. Between the extra hours, heavy lifting, and stress, I’m ready for a vacation and we haven’t even opened yet. “Allie and I have been working our asses off for weeks to get ready for our grand opening, and I’m just ready for it to be over.”
“Is everything ready?” Fischer glances over and catches my slight wince. “Can I help you with anything?”
“Thanks for the offer, but I think we’re in pretty good shape.” I shrug and smile. “We had extra help this week. My friend, London Valentine, came by to help us with the finishing touches.” I’m strung tight. Being this close to the hot attorney is turning me to mush.
“Why are you so nervous, love?” He reaches for my hand and stops me from rubbing my palms over my slacks. When Fischer brings it to his mouth for a light kiss, I nearly combust.
My freaking mouth takes off on its own. “This is all new to me.” Mortification flows through my veins as I admit my inexperience. “I’ve never really dated. At all. Ever.”
Fischer takes my confession in stride. “That’s good to know because the thought of you dating another man makes me homicidal.” He glances over at me and smirks. “Prison stripes aren’t a good look for me.”
I throw back my head to laugh at his silly expression and feel my discomfort evaporate.
CHAPTER
SIX
FISCHER
When we pull up in front of the Metropolitan Theater, Maddie turns to me. “We’re going to see a movie?”
“I promised you dinner and a movie.” I help her from the SUV and take her soft hand. “The theater serves meals during movies.” After wrapping my arm around her shoulder, I pull her curvy body close to mine. “I look at it as the perfect opportunity. Dark theater, good food, and my luscious little thief snuggled up next to me.”
“Sounds like heaven to me.” She smiles and follows me into the mostly empty theater.
Sitting next to her in the darkened theater is pure torture. My cock has been in a constant state of readiness since the beautiful blonde stole my dinner and made off with my heart. I barely taste a bite of my dinner, and I have no idea what movie we watched.
By the time we leave the theater, I’m ready to self-combust.
“That was fun.” Maddie sighs. She glances up at me while we drive through the quiet little town. I force myself to ignore my painfully erect cock and concentrate on not ending up in a ditch. I used up all my self-control earlier tonight while I fought the urge to fuck her in the nearly empty movie theater.
“I hate for the night to end.” Maddie looks over at me.
“Me too,” I agree as hunger heats my blood. “But I’m losing the ability to resist you,” I let slip out before I’m able to control the words.
Maddie takes a deep breath and shrugs. “Who said you have to resist me?”
“You told me this is all new to you,” I explain. “I wanted to make sure you’re ready for us to take this to the next level.”
“And if I’m ready now?” she asks. “For you to have your way with me?” Maddie stares at me, and I feel my ability to resist her slipping away.
“Don’t tease a desperate man,” I groan, knowing my self-control is running on fumes. “I don’t want to rush you.”
“I’m freaking ready,” she insists. “I’ve been ready since the night we met.” My control snaps as the words echo around the SUV. There’s no way I can resist the temptation any longer. Maddie just handed me the combination to heaven.
After helping her from the SUV, my curvy little heart thief snuggles into my arms. I know she hates the elevator, but there’s no way I’m letting her exhaust herself on the stairs. I have another workout in mind.
“I hate the death closet,” she grumbles when I press the up button.
“Don’t worry.” I pull her close and lean down to whisper next to her ear, “I’ll keep you occupied. You won’t even notice we’re in there.”
The second the elevator doors close behind us, I pull Maddie into my arms and keep my promise. Her soft body melts against mine as I devour her pouty lips. My cock grows steadily harder as the elevator slowly takes us to the third floor.
It takes me several seconds to realize the doors have opened; I’ve been so caught up in distracting my girl. “See.” I lay my forehead against hers. “I told you it would be a short ride.”
