I pushed the door shut and reached up, sliding the lock in place. When I looked back at Tori, her eyes had grown even rounder and her face was heating.
“No.” She shook her head quickly. “I don’t want you in here. I don’t want to see you right now. You need to go.”
“I ain’t goin’ anywhere.”
She flinched, hissing, “Get out,” between her teeth after pulling in another breath.
“You went lookin’ for me,” I said, knowing the truth now but still needing her to admit it. “Came to that party wantin’ me, babe. Only reason you were there.”
Eyes closing through a heavy blink, she shook her head, laughing under her breath. “Fine.” Her eyes flashed open. “Is that what you need to hear so you’ll leave? Yes. Okay? I did come to that party for you. And I did go looking for you, after I waited thirty fucking minutes in a bedroom I thought was yours. Had a bunch of surfboards in it and trophies. All of which had your name on them. I checked. I waited in that room thinking you’d come find me, but you didn’t, did you? Because you’re not that guy, Jamie.”
My brows lifted. “Say again?”
“You’re not that guy,” she repeated. “You’re the guy who gets the chance to fuck three girls at once and takes that over going to find the one girl who’s waiting for you. It’s all about how much pussy you can score. You’re that guy. And now what, you’re having lunch with them? Chatting and looking all cozy. I can’t believe you’d ask them to come here.”
“Babe, you don’t know shit,” I told her, arms crossing over my chest.
Her mouth dropped open again. She blinked. “Excuse me?”
“Didn’t invite them here. Didn’t know they’d show up. And when they did, told them I didn’t want them sittin’ with me.”
“Well, unless I’m imagining things, I’m pretty sure that’s where they were sitting,” she shot back. “And it didn’t look like you were dragging them away either. In fact, you were smiling at them. I saw it.”
Hearing that, I couldn’t help it. I laughed. “Jesus, Legs.”
And seeing me laugh and interpreting that wrong, Tori started moving at me, eyes flashing and lips curling against her teeth.
“Get out,” she snarled. “I don’t want to see you right now. I’m getting back to work and you’re leaving.” She stopped, jerking back before crashing into me since I hadn’t stepped aside. Chin tipping up and fists clenching at her sides, she glared at me. “Move, Jamie.”
“Wanna know why I was smilin’?” I asked, still not moving.
“I don’t give a damn. Now move.”
I bent down, getting closer to her. “You give a damn, babe,” I said harshly, watching her eyes blink and dilate. “Probably more than you’d like right now considerin’ what you’re lettin’ yourself believe, but you’re wrong, Legs. Everything you’re thinkin’ right now. Didn’t ask them here and sure as fuck wasn’t smilin’ ’cause of them.”
“I don’t believe you,” she replied, voice quiet.
“Can’t say that surprises me,” I returned.
Her eyes narrowed. She rolled up on her toes to get closer, ordering, “Move.”
“No.”
“Move, Jamie.”
I shook my head.
Tori rocked back, looking on the verge of tears. “Please move,” she whispered.
“No, babe. You’re gonna hear me out,” I said, standing firm. “Got a lot to say and you’re not gettin’ out of here until I say it.”
“There is nothing you could tell me right now that could make me stay in here another second with you. I’m getting back to work,” she countered, looking behind me at the door and then back up into my face. “As soon as you move.”
“Not movin’.”
She started panting through her nostrils, shaking her head, lip trembling and tears filling her eyes. “I swear to God, Jamie, if you don’t move—”
“You’re gonna hear me out,” I repeated, interrupting her as I dropped my head even lower, our noses almost touching. “Gonna stand there and hear what I got to tell you. Every fuckin’ word, babe, and you’re gonna do it not arguin’. Said what you had to say. I took it, keepin’ my mouth shut even though it was bullshit. All of it. Now it’s my turn. You interrupt me or try and debate and I’m startin’ over. I’ll move when this is done.”
She gasped when I dropped my arms, ripped her apron off, and tugged at her uniform shorts, popping the button.
“Jamie—”
I stepped closer, pushing her until she was flat against the lockers. “Startin’ now, only thing I wanna hear comin’ out of your mouth is my name, babe. That or those hot as fuck noises you give.” Hands on her shorts, I yanked them down along with her panties, lifting her foot to step out as I dropped to my knees in front of her.
Tori’s breaths were coming out fast. Her body was stiff, hands flat against the lockers, but when I hooked her left leg over my shoulder and stared at her pussy, she whimpered and reached down, pushing her fingers gently through my hair.
