āDo you think living in the same building and working together is going to be too much?ā
āIf I thought it would be, I wouldnāt have said yes when Jamie suggested it,ā I say with a shrug. āItās not like we donāt spend time outside of work together already.ā
āButā¦ not like this. Youāre literally two flights of stairs away.ā
āDo you have a problem with it? I didnāt exactly ask before springing it on you.ā
āItās fine. Weāre fine. Everything is fine,ā she rambles. āIām just in one of my weird overthinking, worst-case-scenario, the-world-may-end-tomorrow kind of moods.ā She waves her hand in the air. āJust run with it, keep me fed and watered, and tell me I look pretty.ā
āYouāre fucking gorgeous, Skye, and you know that.ā
āWell, thatās a bit much, but Iām not gonna stop you.ā
āItās true. And to take it one step further,ā I say, leaning in, the smell of her perfume more potent the closer I get, āwhen you walked into the station tonight, I had to turn around and walk away to stop from becoming the laughing stock of the station and earning a new nickname.ā A salacious grin transforms her face.
āThat bad, huh?ā
āThat good. Itās like you purposefully forgot to do up the top button of your shirt just to flash me the blue lace underneath.ā
Her eyes dance with mischief, and without even asking, I know it was all for me. She taps her chin with her index finger. āHmm, I wonder what name you could have had.ā
āEgg white,ā I say.
āOkay, thatās not what I expected. Why that?ā
āStiff when well beaten.ā
Skye barks out a laugh, and I join her. āWhat about Cocked and Loaded?ā
āOr just Cocked.ā
āQuick Draw?ā Her lips quirk up and said cock twitches to attention. How is it that Iāve been able to control myself around Skye during the past year, but since that kiss and Skyeās declaration that sex with me could just be sexāno complications neededāI canāt get her out of my head? The genie is out of the bottle, and that stubborn bastard refuses to go back inside.
āAnd I think thatās a sign we should change the subject.ā
