Chapter 15 (Rachel's POV)I was just about to go back to my room when I heard Mason and Brandon talking.So I eavesdropped a little."I know you said your roomie is hot, but you didn't say she was Rachel. Because let's be honest she is drop dead gorgeous." I had to chuckle at Brandon. He was so adorable sometimes. But you could see it in his eyes, he loved his wife. Sure he would give you a once over but that was it. And let me tell you, finding a guy like him was a real lottery ticket these days.Someone who only had eyes for you and no matter how hard it became he stood by your side proudly.I hope his kind is not extinct already.I need a man like that in my life."Don't make me tell on you to your wife Brandon.""Asshole. I didn't mean it like that. You know I love my wife, but it doesn't mean I am blind. But I will tell you this only once. Get things right with her. She is a good woman."See? Told you he loves his wife and her alone.But one thing didn't want to leave my mind.So
Chapter 16 (Mason's POV)Guess what? I am back to hiding.What Rachel said before was a bit too much for me to handle.I know those were the rumors back in high school and later college.But it was a far cry from the truth.But one rumor was enough to make me the biggest playboy around.I didn't even have to talk to a girl and rumors started that I slept with her.And since back then I was a skinny boy I just tried to ignore everything as best as I could.I had no idea those rumors would haunt me up to this day.But I thought Rachel knew better than to rely on rumors.I also thought we started to at least tolerate each other, but looks like I was wrong once again.When will I learn?Suddenly there was a knock on my door.There was no question who it was, but I did wonder what she wanted, so I told her to come in.I didn't move from my position on the bed though.She opened the door and stepped inside.I could see she was nervous from the way she wriggled her hands and avoided eye cont
Chapter 17 (Rachel's POV)What in the all loving hell is wrong with me?I was supposed to hate Mason.But when I told that to him, it felt like I was choking out a lie.Also when he told me he hates me too, it stung.I don't know what I was expecting since I told him I hate him.Ah enough with these thoughts.I pulled out my phone and shot a quick message to Becky.Bitch1: hey babes. The situation is all settled. We talked and he told me about Coleen. I can't believe you didn't tell me in all these years!! You owe me a huge coffee once you're back in town. Love you.It took her only a minute when the dots already started bouncing on my screen, signaling she was typing a response.Bitch2: yeah, yeah. You will get your coffee. But I don't feel bad because first: it wasn't my story to tell, and second: for fucks sake woman you never got along! But I am glad you worked out your problems. After all, you still need to survive at least until your first paycheck. And unfortunately for you I l
Chapter 18 (Mason's POV)I was lost in my thoughts.Wanna bet who was the main star in my day dreaming?Ding ding!You guessed correctly.It was Rachel.Weird right?That was some hard sarcasm if you didn't notice.But yeah I was daydreaming about her instead of focusing on my work.So of course I received a slap on the back of my head.And yes it was Brandon."Come on man. Stop dreaming about Rachel and focus on the task at hand."I was taken aback by his words.He saw our interactions only once and he already put together 1 and 1. I was trying to hide my feelings for Rachel for years.Especially in front of her and Becky.I was even more of an asshole around them than usually.But one Brandon was enough to ruin my facade."Even if you were right, you don't have to be an ass about it, you know."He raised one eyebrow and spoke slowly like I was an idiot."You need to get your head out of your ass.
Chapter 19 (Rachel's POV)I must be dreaming or hallucinating.One of the above for sure.In what universe were frenemies with benefits a good idea?Not in my universe that's for sure.But looking at Mason and his smirk I was sure he was completely serious.Before he could answer my question I continued speaking."Sure there is sexual tension but in ehat world those that mean there is chemistry between us? What if we give it a try and it all goes to hell? Did you consider that? What if there is no chemistry between us and we end up hating each other even more?"His smirk became one of determination and satisfaction."See, I knew you would think like that and I have a perfect solution for that problem. We can do a little experiment."Those words send shivers down my spine. I'd like to say they were caused by dread but it was more in anticipation.Still I hesitated before asking, because it seemed he won't continue until I ask."Wha
Chapter 20 (Mason's POV)My plan was only to kiss her and let her want more.Well I guess it didn't go as planned.Because I left myself wanting more.Still I didn't regret my decision to leave before we went any further.She had to come to me on her own and agree to our arrangement.I didn't want her to regret anything.So since my plan backfired, I was now sitting in my room hard as a stone, waiting for my arousal to go away.But as it was turning out it was pretty much impossible.Because all I could think about was Rachel falling apart, her moans and whimpers of pleasure.I couldn't help myself.I wanted more of it.But right now all I could do was wait for her decision.Either it would be the best thing that happened to me in the past few years, or it would get even more awkward between us.Guess only time would tell.I just laid back on my bed and still waited for my hormones to settle down when suddenly my door
Chapter 21 (Rachel's POV)OH MY GOD!Please don't wake up.I want to continue dreaming!Because no other option is possible if you ask me.I went from having a crush on this guy,to hating him and in the past week tolerating him.But never in all my years did I imagine we would seal a deal like this.And to start it with a kiss.And what a kiss it was.It was filled with passion and desperation.I held on to him for my dear life.He was taking it slow though and I needed more.So I bit his lip.He groaned and moved a bit away from my face.With a gorgeously evil smirk on his face he said:"You are going to be the death of me woman. We just made the ground rules to our arrangements and you are tempting me already."I knew he was teasing me, since it was his idea to seal the deal.It was my turn to smirk at him."We talked long enough but right now I want action. I want you and you want me. We barely can stand
Chapter 22 (Mason's POV)One week laterSo here we are.One week later and I must admit this new arrangement between Rachel and me was the best thing we ever did.Well at least for me.But Rachel wasn't complaining either so I'd say she had no problem as well.We were just coworkers at work, hated each other through the day and spent every night together tangled in the sheets.And let me reveal a secret to you.Sex was amazing.It just got better and better, which I doubted was possible every night but the next day proved me wrong.And I had another secret.Rachel was kind of a nympho.She attacked me the minute we came home, after we made dinner together and many days ended up going at it once more before we ate dinner. And ofcourse the last one was before we went to sleep. Sometimes even once in the living room where we pretended to be interested in the movie that was playing and then in one of the rooms.Sometimes it w
