I’m about to walk off the dance floor when Todd grabs a guy’s arm. “Hey, fill in for me while I bring Craig back to his room. Keep an eye on her.” He says as he nods my way.
My eyes lock with Sawyer’s as Todd walks away. There’s no way I’m dancing with him. I turn around to leave on the other side of the dance floor, but Sawyer grabs my hand and whips my body back around to his.
My chest slams against his, and my breath catches in my throat. Before I have a chance to ask him what he’s doing, he spins me out and then back around so my back is to his front. His arms wrap around me as his body sways against mine.
His hands roam up and down my sides, and my body can’t help but give in to the rhythm. I feel the bass coursing through my blood as I move to the beat. Sawyer reaches his hands down, and they slide down my upper thighs. His mouth runs along my shoulder and then up my neck.
I hear the whimpering moan that escapes my lips, and that snaps me back to reality. I step forward and put distance between us. I must have had too many drinks. I turn around and face Sawyer and see that cocky smirk on his face. I don’t bother saying anything. I just walk away.
I glance back when I reach the edge of the dance floor and see Sawyer already talking to some other girl. I huff out a breath and order a water bottle from the bar this time. I chug some back when my dad walks up to me.
“Hey, how’s the trip going so far?” He asks.
I smile at him. “Great dad! This was an amazing idea.”
His smile grows. “I’m glad to hear it.” Then he frowns. “Was that Sawyer I saw you with?”
My smile drops. “Unfortunately he showed up.” Then I smile at him again. “Maybe we can have someone steal his passport, and we can leave him here.”
My dad laughs. “Now that’s the spirit!” He pats my back. “Don’t let me keep you. Go! Go have fun!”
I head back out to the dance floor and dance with a few more guys. The problem is I’m too horny after that dance with Sawyer. Fuck, why does that man have to mess with my head? I’m worried if I keep drinking and dancing with these strangers, I’ll end up doing something I’ll regret, so I grab another water and head out of the event hall to the resort lobby.
I try not to wobble in my heels as I make my way across the marble floor to the front desk, but the alcohol is doing nothing to improve my balance. I f
inally reach the counter and lean against it for support. I smile at the reception boy. “Hi there. One of our people got locked out of their room. Could you get me a new key?” I slide my ID across the counter. “Part of the Excelsis booking.”
He smiles at me. “Of course. Which room number?”
I pause and think for a second. What was Todd’s room? I smile back at him. “Uhm… Room 452.”
He quickly activates the card for me and slides it back across the counter. “Anything else?” He asks.
“No thanks.” I respond as I grab the key and turn back around toward the elevator. I fiddle with my dress as I ride the elevator back up to my room. What should I wear? I want something sexy but also not complicated.
I rummage through my suitcase looking for something to put on. I actually packed quite a few sexy items. I knew this trip was going to be more for pleasure than business, so I packed accordingly.
I settle on my black lacy bra and matching panty set. I grab my short black silk bathrobe and throw it on over top. I just have to get one floor down, so even though it’s not totally appropriate, I think I’ll be okay.
I run into the bathroom and brush my teeth and wash all my important parts before doing a quick touch up on my makeup. I take one last look at myself, and then I slip my room key and Todd’s room key into the front pocket of my bathrobe and peek out into the hall.
It’s nearing 2 a.m. now since I took awhile to get ready, so it seems most people have already gone to bed or are going to make it an all nighter because the hall is completely empty. I tip-toe over to the elevator and press the fourth floor. As the doors close, I start feeling jittery. Is this really a good idea? I’m already in the elevator in basically my underwear, so I guess there’s really no turning back now.
I peek out of the elevator when the doors open and don’t see anyone in this hall either. I quickly rush to the room, but I pause before I put the key in. What if he was joking about me coming to his room? I pause and think. No, he definitely wants me. I need to stop overthinking this. I go to put the key in again, but then I stop again. What if he’s not here? I shake my head to get a grip. That would actually work out better. I could get comfy in his bed and surprise him when he gets back.
I shake my shoulders out one more time and run my fingers through my hair. Then I stick the key in the slot and push the door open. No turning back now.
The room is dark, and as the door swings back shut, I can’t see anything. I debate turning on the light, but then I hear Todd roll over in his bed. I walk toward the sound. “You fall asleep already?” I try to sound light and sexy.
“Hm?” He grunts, sounding confused as to why I am here. He really must’ve fallen asleep.
I feel like there’s tension in the air now, and I don’t want it to get uncomfortable, so I jump right in. I feel my way to the bed as my eyes adjust slightly to the darkness. I climb right onto Todd’s lap as he sits up. He tries to talk. “What are you doin-.”
I cut him off by pressing my lips to his. He hesitates for a moment like he didn’t actually think I’d be here in his room with him. Probably because we never actually went this far before. A moment later though, he reaches behind my head and pulls me closer to himself.
His other hand runs up my bare thigh as he deepens the kiss. Hm...I don’t remember Todd being such a good kisser. Maybe I’m a little tipsy still, or maybe that was because we weren’t in his bed before.
I grind myself against his lap and run my fingers down his bare chest. He must’ve been sleeping in his briefs, which is all good by me. His hand slides up and pulls the tie on my robe, and I let it fall off so I am left in my lacy panty set.
