Take Me To Bed: Bedtime Quickies Collection

?d give her some. “You do know what happens to us guys when a girl is sitting between our legs, right?”

Her resolve shook for a second but I caught it. “Oh, is that how it works?” Now she was taunting me. “I didn’t know it happened so quickly.”

I was already half hard just having this conversation with her, knowing she was only wearing a bikini underneath the bubbles from the jets. We sat there watching each other, and I caught her squirming, her only give she was affected. Me? I knew I was blushing, I just hoped she attributed it to the heat from the tub.

“It’s not like I could hide it. And we’re here with your cousins and best friends, who happen to be guys. They’d give me hell.”

She crossed her arms under the water, making her chest rise above the surface. My eyes dropped to that area, obviously, and she caught me.

“Well, no one’s in here with us. Why don’t I try sitting on your lap now so I can see how it works?”

I nearly choked at her declaration. “You. What? You’re kidding, right?”

She raised a single eyebrow. Oh shit. When she did that, it was a challenge. And I never backed down from a challenge.

My voice was half hoarse when I said, “Come here.”

She didn’t hesitate, even though half of me hoped she would. I was already stretching the capacity of my briefs as it was, and there was no way she’d miss it. Should I warn her?

Too late.

She turned her back and my legs parted, making room for her. Hazel slid back slowly, our legs rubbing against one another. When her ass hit my crotch, she sucked in a breath. “Oh,” she breathed out. “I see.”

I swallowed, unable to speak. My hands were at my sides and I wanted to move them to her thighs. Anywhere on her skin she’d let me, I was desperate to touch.

I was starting to do just that when I felt the eyes on us. All four of the guys were standing a few feet away, staring at us.

Hazel

Spike had a lopsided smile, Moody was smirking, and the twins shared the same shocked expression, mouths agape.

When Bodhi took the first step toward us, I moved away from Cruz. Everything inside me ached for him, that was the only way to describe it. Even my blood was boiling for him. As I forced myself to the spot I’d been in a few feet away, I could practically feel my body chanting “No, no, no. Stop! Hey, go back! What are you doing? We want mooooooore!”

But then my best friends were there, splashing as they got all up in our business.

Spike raised his hand. “I would like to say that I called this first.”

“Uh, no, I did,” Emmett told him. He’d taken up on my other side.

“Called what exactly? Nothing happened.” I didn’t even know why I said that. Five sets of eyes landed on me but it was Cruz’s gaze that felt heaviest.

No one even bothered responding to my question. Bodhi pointed between us. “This is new, right? You guys wouldn’t hide it from us.”

“Depends on what you’re referring to,” Moody said. “They’ve been crushing on each other ever since Cruz joined our club team a couple years ago. I think they only admitted it to each other just now though.”

Cruz went to the private academy in town while we went to the public school. He’d still managed to win over the guys while playing with them on our club soccer team, and we’d started hanging with him outside of school. I don’t know when he officially became part of our group, someone we trusted, someone we assumed would always be there, but it hadn’t been all that long.

“We haven’t even kissed!” I blurted. What I’d done, what I’d felt, that had seemed much more intimate than kissing. Not that I would know, never having kissed anyone before.

“Well, what are you waiting for?” Bodhi asked. “Go for it.”

“Yeah, we don’t mind. We’re all practically family here,” Spike said.

I finally let my eyes go to Cruz’s, and I couldn’t figure out what he was thinking. He had this mixture of longing, amusement, and something darker, like regret, or perhaps just unease. But I could never be sure with him. It was always so electrifying in his presence, I didn’t know what I was imagining and what was real.

When he spoke, I hung on every word. “That’s the thing, isn’t it? You guys are best friends. Hazel too. I don’t know if this is okay. I mean, none of you have kissed her so I assumed it was an unspoken rule.”

“Gross, man, she’s our cousin,” Emmett said.
