Wanting Winter(69)
“You really need to stop trying to get into my arms, sweets.” He pulls my body flush against his.
“You’re in his arms?” I hear my mom ask over the phone. “I bet he’s hot,” she says again and Colin’s smile goes bigger hearing it.
“Mom, he heard you.” I press the phone again against my ear.
“He must be pretty close to you for him to have heard me,” she says playfully.
“She’s pressed up against him, Marie,” Karen shouts out, smiling at us both.
“Oh, are you sweetie?” mom teases.
“You are both as bad as each other.” I groan.
“Bet you’re still in his arms, though.” I look to Colin who is still smiling and I quickly step out of his embrace.
“Can my day get any worse?”
“Probably,” Karen and my mom say at the same time.
“I have to go, I need to set my anger on the principal.”
“Don’t be too hard on him. By the way, I called to say I won’t be home when you get in. I have another date.” She sighs dreamily on the word date. She’s been seeing this man for the last six months and she is so smitten. I promised her that I will meet him once my talent show is over with and he’s free from work. Mom says he’s a very busy man, but he always has time for her.
“Be good and I’ll see you when you get home.”
“I may not be coming home tonight if he plays his cards right.”
I scrunch up my face. “Too much info, Mom. Have fun, wear protection.”
“Yes, Mom,” she mimics me. “Love you.”
“Love you, too.” We hang up and I look to everyone and they are all staring at me.
“So, your Mom is getting some?” Aaron waggles his eyebrows. “She’s quite loud,” he explains. I growl and start stomping back down the hall. When I stop suddenly, to collect my momentum my body is once again pushed forward.
What is it with today?
I turn to see Colin chuckling at me.
“You two are already doing my head in.” I huff.
“I’m glad I’m doing something in for you.” Colin winks at me.
“You are disgusting.”
“You’ll like it.” He winks at me and I roll my eyes and start walking again. When we all get to Mr. Atkins office, I walk past his secretary and knock on his door.
Excerpt - Chapter 3
Colin
I have never met someone as fiery as this girl. I know she’s angry, but the way she bites her lip, which I’m positive she doesn’t realize she’s doing, is making me think of her mouth, and the way she talks to me makes me want to push her against the wall and cover her mouth with mine.
She is one big tease and she doesn’t even mean to be.
Walking down the corridor, my eyes keep landing on her fine ass. I love that she is so accident prone; I’ll take any excuse to have her body pressed up to mine. I love touching her smooth, soft skin. It’s like feeling silk.
She knocks on Mr. Atkins door and he calls out for us to enter. We all walk in, well Sasha storms in, and I lean my body against the wall as I watch her take out her frustration. Poor Mr. Atkins doesn’t know where to look or how to act.
“I swear to God, this isn’t acceptable. The talent show is literally around the corner and now you let them take part? They’re going to find any way to do nothing but take credit for the work being put in. I will quit the whole entire thing before I let these nimwits ruin it.” Her chest rises as her voice gets higher and my mind wanders off; thinking of her in my bedroom. If she is this passionate about a show, I bet she is a wild horse in the sack trying to reach her next orgasm.
“Miss Bennett, please take a breath, you know I am relying on you to make this show one hundred percent perfect.”
“Then get rid of those two.”
“It’s not just us two,” Aaron adds in with a cheery tone. “We have two other guys helping out.”
“What?” Sasha shouts. “Are you trying to sabotage this?” She waves her hands in the air and I’m enjoying watching her; it’s taking so much not to laugh since I know she would kill me on the spot if I did.
“Mr. Baxter is being punished and he is making up for what he did by lending a hand.”
“Make him do something else.” Mr. Atkins stands and looks out his window.
“I tell you what, since you are in charge, Miss Bennett, I am going to let you be the boss over them, they have to do what you say when you say or the alternative punishment will stand.” He looks to me. Panic already starts to kick in again.
Fuck.
Sasha folds her arms and looks up to the ceiling. “Fine, but if any of them think they can slack off, they have another thing coming.”
“They won’t.” She nods.
“Okay, right, let’s head to the gym and get this over with.” She walks past us all and leaves the office. I watch as Aaron and Karen do the same, and I am right behind them when Mr. Atkins calls out my name.
“Remember, Mr. Baxter, if you mess this up, you won’t be playing the next game and that suspension will be in place.” I sigh and leave without saying a word.
“Fuck, man, Sasha is our boss. Already I can tell she is power mad. She is fucking crazy.” He shakes his head, staring at her.
