"What am I doing?" the words finally left my mouth. It was a belated response but he didn't care. Even in the dim light I was sure he could see the blush consuming my face.
I watched Joey's eyes as their focus briefly moved to my mouth. His lips parted and I thought he was going to kiss me but he didn't. Was he dragging it out on purpose or did he not really want to kiss me?
His right hand twirled strands of my hair between his fingers, his eyes meeting mine again in a paralyzing stare. My breath hitched and what felt like a sudden cold breeze moved through me. "You're teasing me," he accused correctly. I had been. Maybe a little more than necessary.
The feeling of his soft dark hair brushing against my forehead made me want to reach up and run my hand through it. "I am," I said matter-of-factly. My plan had worked so far.
Joey's lips pursed before forming a smile. A smile that could make any man weak, single or not. "You realize how wrong this is, right?" he cocked an eyebrow, amused. I knew he was right but I didn't care at the time. All I could think about was him. Touching him. Kissing him. Feeling him. Him.
The room was dark, aside from the candlelight. All the blinds were wide open, allowing me a beautiful view of the twinkling stars in the late night sky. Smooth cream-colored satin sheets were tangled and tossed around, as were our clothes. Satisfied sighs, moans, groans, gasps, and even the occasional breathy scream filled the air, alerting anyone within earshot of our ongoing actions.
His strong, rock-hard muscles and commanding features were an even more stunning view than the star-studded sky outside, only adding to my gratification.
Having come from two families who couldn't possibly hold more disdain for each other, I was raised never to like him. Growing up two houses apart and attending the same schools, we'd been competing on every level in every venue possible and the competition was just going to increase as soon, our respective fathers are going to pass the authority and control of their million dollar company in our hands, the same two companies which are arch-rival for each other.
I boldly snaked my hand between his chest and mine. He raised up slightly, giving me room and watching my actions intently. I courageously placed my hand at the top of my torso, softly grabbing ahold of the fastened button. Staring into Joey's intrigued eyes, I fiddled with the button for a few seconds, undoing it and moving down to the next one. He captured my hand in his as I finished unbuttoning the second, halting my movements.
"Adam..." he trailed off with a soft sigh. I could hear my pulse hammering wildly, waiting for him to speak again.
A small lamp in the corner was the only thing illuminating the hotel room as Joey and I broke a new record on how fast we could undress each other. His slacks and the black boots he often wore under them laid in a pile on the floor beside his shirt and jacket.
I gazed at him in lust, noticing his tongue swipe across his lower lip. A knot had formed in my stomach. A pit of desire and aching need. I craved his kiss again. But I longed for more than that. So much more.
