Finding You (Love Wanted in Texas 4)

Grace was about to say something when everything got quite. The strange female voice grew louder as she moved toward the door. Grace and I pushed each other as we ran down the hall and into my bedroom. Pushing Grace in, we shut the door but not all the way.

Barely opening the door, Grace and I put our ear to the opening. “Grace and Noah should be getting back any moment.”

Grace sucked in a breath of air and looked at me with a stunned look on her face. “Holy shit, Gray and Meg?” I asked.

Grace made a funny face and said, “Well, I wasn’t too far off with my whore comment.”

Giving her a nudge, I attempted to keep my laughter in. Grace and I used to talk on the phone for hours and I learned a lot about her friends during those conversations. From what I gathered from Grace, Meagan was the more sexual friend in the bunch. But she’d also had a very rough time at college with being bullied.

“That’s not even funny, Grace.”

The loud knock on my bedroom door caused both Grace and I to let out a scream. The door pushed open and Grayson came charging in.

“Shh! What in the hell is wrong with you two?” Grayson said as he looked between us. “Y’all are not supposed to be here. You said you were going for a walk.”

Grace smiled and said, “I’m kind of feeling a little bad for Meg if you only need that short of a time span to get it on, Gray.”

Hiding my smile, I looked away as Grayson gave Grace the finger. “Go to hell, Grace.”

“Hey! That’s my girlfriend, asshole. And we were coming back home to spend some time together.”

Grayson’s face busted out with a huge smile. “Ah, so I wasn’t the only one hoping to get lucky.”

Grace pushed Grayson on the chest. “Wait. You and Meg? How long? When did this happen? You better have worn a condom.” Grace’s faces turned white as a ghost. “Oh my God. That’s twice I’ve heard Meg calling out to God while being—”

“Shut up, Grace. I don’t need to hear about Meg’s past sex life,” Grayson said as he pushed his hand through his hair.

Grace sucked in a breath and pointed to Grayson. “You like her. Holy hell, you like Meg.”

Grayson shook his head. “No I don’t. She came on to me, said she wanted to have a good time, so we did. Listen, she doesn’t want you to know we hooked up.”

“Why?” Grace asked.

Shrugging his shoulders, Grayson said, “I don’t know. She just said if I told either one of y’all she’d cut my balls off and something about hanging me from a rafter first.”

Grace giggled and then put her finger up to her mouth. Grayson spun around. “Shit, she’s coming back upstairs. You weren’t here!”

Grabbing Grayson’s arm, I pulled him to a stop. “But we are on our way back! No more screwing around. I’m never going to be able to erase what I heard. Ever!”

Rolling his eyes, Grayson pushed my hand away and headed out of my room and into the hall, but not before he slammed the bedroom door shut.

Grace and I took one look at each other and busted out laughing as quietly as we could.

“Should we sneak back out and then come back in?” Grace asked.

Nodding, I said, “Yeah, let’s hurry before she leaves his room again.”

Tiptoeing back down the hall and to the stairs, Grace and I pretended to walk back into the house. As I shut the front door, Grace started laughing, loudly. Too loudly.

“Jesus, you were never in the drama club, were you?” I asked as Grace gave me the finger.

Tilting her head, she playfully ran her hand up and down her body. “If I remember correctly, Mr. Bennet. You were about to take me up to your room.”

Walking up, I slid my hand behind Grace’s neck as I pulled her lips to mine. Slamming my lips to hers, I slid my tongue in and moaned, as I tasted her.

“Ugh, do the two of you mind? I mean I’m happy you’ve got your mojo back and all, Noah, but seriously. We all don’t need to hear you moaning.” Meagan said as she walked past us.

Pulling my lips from Grace’s we both laughed. If Meagan only knew.
