FIRE ON ICE - EXCERPT (R-RATED)
I also knew Taylor was too good for me. It
certainly wasn’t a secret. As Tal Bachman sang in his song, She’s So High… Above Me, I knew Taylor
was just that. But I had something I knew this guy didn’t and that was
gumption. When I set my mind on something, I didn’t give up until I achieved
it. I had already set my mind on having Taylor and this little puke wasn’t
going to stand in my way.
I had to choke back a laugh when dickwad
Kyle actually pointed a finger at me.
“Hey, Dude,” I warned. “Unless you want me
to break that thing, keep your finger to yourself.”
He gulped and then put down his finger like
I told him to. At least he was good at following directions. But wasn’t that
one of the reasons people earned a college degree? It was proof that they knew
how to follow the rules and do as they were told.
“Taylor’s not the type of girl you can just
hump and dump you know.”
I couldn’t hold it back anymore. I actually
laughed right in Kyle’s homely pie-face. “And just what would you know about
humping and dumping?”
His eyes started with the furious blinking
again and I wondered how Taylor could stand being around the guy. Just the
blinking thing was enough to drive anyone nuts.
“I know how guys like you are. Hit it and
quit it. That’s all you’re about. Taylor’s better than that.”
I had my share of one-night stands, I’d
been with so many girls I’d lost count, but I wanted more with Taylor. Much more. She was all I thought about
since I laid eyes on her. I didn’t believe in shit like love-at-first-sight but
there was definitely something there with Taylor, I just didn’t know what it
was.
I crossed my arms over my chest and gave
Kyle my best trash stare. “And you think you’re the guy for Taylor.”
He actually lifted his shoulders and stood
a little taller. “I know I am.”
“Why don’t we let her decide who’s the guy
for her?”
When he started with the rapid-fire
blinking again, I wanted to slap him.
“Okay,” he finally agreed. Then he just stood
there—waiting. At that moment, I wanted him to be anywhere but there. Could I
just tell him to take a hike?
He must have read it on my face because he
said, “I’d better get ready for class.”
Then he turned and headed toward the
campus. When I saw him sneak in a quick peek back at me, I snarled and he
practically started running away.
A few minutes later, I spotted Taylor
heading toward the coffee shop. My heart actually skipped a few beats when I
laid eyes on her again. I didn’t think it was possible but she actually looked
even more striking than when I first saw her at the bar.
She had on an above the knee number that
showed off her amazing legs and a tight little blouse that gave me the idea
that she was probably closer to a C cup than the B’s I imagined were under the
blouse she was wearing at the bar. I could see she had a hot body and I wanted
to see even more. I could feel myself getting hard just thinking about it.
She had her hair pulled back in a long,
loose pony tail making her near perfect features even more prominent. What took
me back, though, were those gorgeous brown eyes. They were even more dazzling
in the daylight with flecks of gold shimmering in the sunlight. I knew I must
have looked like a complete fucking dork but I couldn’t keep my eyes off of
her. But the thought of me turning into pathetic Kyle was enough to knock me
back to reality and I tried to act cool and casual, even though my heart was
nearly pounding out of my chest.
Get a
grip, Kian, I tried to tell myself. If
you act like a pussy, you’ll end up in the friend zone just like pie-face.
And there was no way in hell I was ever going to allow myself to be put in the
friend zone. I wanted all of Taylor Thompson.
