ELLIE It was a woman's voice. I was frightened, and panicking. God! I had completely forgotten that we were in the restroom of a restaurant. Shit. Morgan had invaded a women's restroom. Looking at me, he shook his head and placed his finger on my lips, silently telling me to stay quiet before kissing me. Slowly, he entered me again. We didn't know if the person behind the door had left, but Ethan continued to move slowly. Entering and withdrawing from me deliciously. He only stopped to step away from the door and lean me against the cold marble of one of the sinks in the bathroom. The sensation of the cold surface against my back and butt made my body shiver. Pleasure was once again dominating my body, with Ethan sensually moving his hips between my legs and kissing my neck, when my cell phone started ringing in my bag next to us. Shit. Who could be calling me? He pulled his face away from my neck and stared at me. "No," he said, realizing that I was staring at my bag. "I
ETHAN"Will?" She cleared her throat before approaching. "Hi! What are you doing here?" she said, trying to pretend to be natural. Too late Brown. Will stared at me again."Was it her?" he asked incredulously. I sighed. Since when did I have to explain my sex life to my friends?"She what?" Ellie asked."I'm not stupid, El. I know what you two were doing in there," Will said, and I saw her grow even paler, probably panicking. Her gaze turned to me, seeking some help."That's none of your business, Will. We're adults, and we can handle it," I finally said. Miss Brown seemed even more irritated. What did she expect? That I would try to lie? Will wasn't stupid."Don't worry, Will. It was a mistake. It won't happen again. I have to go," she said, not even looking at me, before turning her back and leaving."Damn it, Morgan! Did it have to be her?""That's none of your business, Will. It's between me and her. Don't meddle.""You're completely wrong. She's my family.""Don't worry, it's not
ETHANAfter staying an extra hour at the office after everyone had left, I was getting ready to leave. It was a little past seven when Bennett's name appeared on my cellphone screen. I took a deep breath, hesitating before sliding my finger on the green button."What do you want?""We're waiting for you. Don't tell me you're still at work.""We? Does that mean you and Will?""And Jack.""Let me guess... Is he going to kick my ass too?" There was silence on the line for a few seconds before I heard Will's voice."If you don't arrive in twenty minutes, we'll come and get you, Morgan," he said before hanging up. Great. Will was still pissed off at me.Shit. Who knew that spending one night with a woman and then having a quickie in the bathroom would be enough to make all my friends want my head? To make matters worse, I still desired her, even though right now I just wanted to put my hands and mouth on her and vent a
ELLIEI ran out of the restaurant leaving Will and Ethan behind. Luckily for me, Todd was no longer waiting for me. Keeping him waiting had been very stupid of me. And to think that I had made him wait to have sex with Ethan in the bathroom made me feel ten times worse.Damn it, Ellie! Did you lose your mind? It was supposed to be just once. Having sex with him in a restaurant bathroom wasn't part of the plan. I wanted to regret it. I really did. But hell, it had been so good. One of the most exciting experiences of my life. It was too late to dwell on regret. Morgan could make me lose my mind, but the fact that I wanted too didn't help.Having done that made things more complicated between us. I could deal with having spent a single night with him, but letting it happen again was a mistake, and it opened up room to think he was interested. Especially because he kept asking those questions about Todd, demanding to know if I would go back to him. Did he care? It made no sense. But the
ELLIEAt the end of the day, Anna appeared at my door again, saying that we would all have dinner together at the usual place. When we arrived at the restaurant, everyone was already sitting at the table waiting for us. Luckily for me, everyone but Ethan. After we sat down I noticed that everyone around the table seemed to be avoiding me, as if they were hiding something from me. Except for Zoe, she couldn't stop staring at me, so I understood what was going on. Everyone already knew about me and Ethan. And even though they were my friends, it was extremely uncomfortable."Do you have something to ask, Zoe?" I raised an eyebrow, aware that she couldn't hold it in."Did you intend to keep hiding this from us if Will hadn't caught you?" She said, narrowing her eyes, while Bennett nodded beside her."I don't think everyone at this table needs to know about my personal life. But since everyone seems interested, I'll make it clear that it was just for fun, and it won't happen again.""We w
ELLIEThe traffic was a mess as I drove to meet Zara for lunch on Thursday. Why did my life seem to be such a mess? I had a good job that I really liked, I had real friends who cared about me. And I had even worked things out a bit with my ex, I was finally getting over him and moving on.My life wasn't really messed up, maybe it was just my feelings. But I refused to admit that Ethan was the reason for this mess. I would admit that he was spending a lot of time in my thoughts, and even in my dreams, but that was just desire. I could admit my desire; my whole body craved him and heated up just by remembering what he could do to me. I could hardly close my eyes at night without recalling his perfect face between my legs, those brown eyes gazing at me, and those lips on me. Hell! I was getting wet just thinking about him.Why did I feel conflicted when I knew Ethan wasn't the right man for me? Whatever his reasons were, he wasn't interested in a relationship, which was exactly what I wa
ETHANThe last forty-eight hours had been hell. The kind that made me wish I wasn't inside my own mind. The idea that Jack wanted to introduce a friend to Miss Brown had initially bothered me like a slight itch. But in the past twenty-four hours, that itch had turned into a mix of frustration and anger.Yesterday afternoon, when my brother made a point of informing me that Ellie had agreed to meet this so-called friend and that they would be introduced tonight, I felt my mood completely spiral out of control. In a way that all my attempts to make the anger dissipate had been futile. Spending nearly three hours at the gym last night and running almost ten kilometers this morning had amounted to nothing.Standing in front of Zara and Jack's door, I was wondering whether I should turn around and leave. But I couldn't do that because if I did, I would be letting another man take what I believed was mine. It wasn't easy to admit, but the fact was that I felt possessive about Miss Brown. An
ETHAN"What did you say?" Her eyebrows furrowed in confusion."Polite people usually say 'good evening'.""Can we skip these provocations and get to the part where I tell you to fuck off?" She smiled sarcastically, making it clear that my goal of provoking her had been achieved. The red lipstick on her lips captured my full attention. It made me imagine how they would feel around my cock; that memory was still fresh in my mind. And it was enough to awaken my cock.I took a step towards her, and she stood still, hesitating in the face of my attitude. I stopped in front of her, her breasts just a few inches away from my chest. I noticed how her breathing became heavy."You look beautiful," I said, smiling and staring into her eyes, making her blink in confusion. "I can't wait to rip that dress off you," I whispered. She remained silent, not breaking eye contact as her breathing quickened. Then the doorbell rang. Damn, Anthony."In your dreams," she gritted her teeth before walking away
