“When I saw you at Nyomi’s parents’ house for Sunday dinner, you gave me a dry ass hello and didn’t look in my direction for the rest of the day.”
“What? You’re making shit up now.”
Again, she knew I was telling the truth, but I didn’t press her. She went to the kitchen, and I followed her, leaning against the counter as she looked in the refrigerator. I couldn’t help but notice her long, toned legs and plump ass in the spandex she wore. My dick had noticed too.
“Nah, I’m not making up a damn thing. Things have been cool between us since you shot me down because I don’t hold grudges. Don’t switch up on me now.”
“Switch up?”
She retrieved a bottle of water, closed the refrigerator door, and leaned against it. My eyes traveled the length of her body, and I noticed her nipples were hard underneath the fitted T-shirt she wore.
“Skye, I realize we want different things, but I can’t get the idea of us out of my mind.”
“Oh . . . I . . . umm . . . thirsty?” she finally asked.
I reached for the bottle, and my hand grazed hers, causing goosebumps to cover her arms. I slowly removed the cap and took a huge swig.
“Thank you. Can I ask you something since you won’t address my confession?”
“Sure.”
“When did your attitude toward me shift? Was it after the bowling alley, or when you saw the picture of Lorianna’s pussy?”
I waited for her to deny that her attitude toward me had changed, but I hoped she would take this opportunity to express her true feelings.
“Knox.”
“Be honest, Skye.”
She took a deep breath before saying, “Both.”
“Does the idea of me with other women bother you?”
She nodded.
“Use your words, beautiful.”
When she didn’t respond, I reached for the front of her shirt, pulling her against my body. She looked up at me, and I was mesmerized by her beauty.
“You’re not gonna answer me?” I questioned.
“I, umm, what was your question again?”
“Does the idea of me with other women bother you?”
“Yes.”
“How does it make you feel?”
“Jealous.”
“Why?”
“Because . . . I like you,” she confessed.
I wrapped my arms around her waist and let my hands slide down to her ass, pressing my hard dick against her stomach.
“I know you feel that. Do you know how hard it’s been to keep my dick from bricking up when I’m in your presence? I like you too, Skye. In fact, I more than like you, but it’s too early for that discussion. I don’t want to scare you off.”
