His Ever After (Love Square) (23 page)

“Bathroom. I figured I would warn you that she brought a friend tonight. Once she saw you were here, she started putting her matchmaking skills to work.” Brad laughs at the nervous look on my face.

“You better be shitting me. I don’t want to be fixed up,” I whine like a petulant child.

“You might think differently once you see Simone. Girl is smoking.” Brad signals for the bartender before ordering him and the two girls a drink.

I take a gulp of my beer and shudder at the thought of getting fixed up with someone. Although, it has been quite a while since I’ve dipped my stick into anyone. Maybe I’ll just wait and see what Simone looks like. It might be good for me to release some of my built up sexual frustrations with something other than my hand.

Sophie snakes through the crowd and makes her way towards the bar with a devilish gleam in her eyes. She gives me a big hug before turning to her friend and introducing us.

“Jacob, this is my friend from work, Simone. Simone, this is Brad’s friend, Jacob.” She gestures between us, and I look Simone up and down. Brad wasn’t kidding when he said she was hot.

Tall and thin, like a model, she stands around five feet ten inches, even in her flat gladiator sandals. She’s wearing a short-sleeved flimsy, floral dress that’s belted at her waist. Her tits look huge, highlighted nicely by her dress. Her hair is ebony and falls halfway down her back in thick waves. Her eyes are dark and exotic and her mouth is full and red. I immediately start picturing what it would be like to see her mouth wrapped around my cock while her mesmerizing eyes look up at me. I adjust myself subtly and reach out to shake her hand.

“Pleasure to meet you,” I respond with a smile.

“Pleasure’s all mine, Jacob,” she purrs with a seductive grin on her face.

The four of us grab a table in the back corner and make small talk. About an hour in, Simone’s hand rests on the top of my thigh with the tips of her fingers barely grazing my groin, while my fingers draw small patterns on her shoulder. I know where this is going and so does my dick. It’s been at half-mast since she purred my name earlier. I can’t keep thoughts of her saying my name just like that while I’m moving inside her out of my head, which is only making the situation in my pants worse.

“I’m going to the ladies’ room,” Simone announces. As she goes to stand, her hand gently squeezes my erection under the table. She leans in and whispers, “Care to join me?”

I give her a subtle nod and watch her ass shimmy towards the restrooms. I adjust myself under the table and stand.

“I’m going to check out the restrooms too.”

“Yeah, I bet you are!” Brad laughs at the obvious fact that I’m about to go get laid.

“You know. I really hoped you two would do more than just fuck. I should have known better.” Sophie shakes her head in mock disgust.

I lean over and kiss her cheek. “I’ll be back,” I say with a wink and head to the ladies’ room.

Inside I find the place is empty, but for Simone who’s standing in a stall door with a come hither look on her face.

I walk over to her and she pulls me by my shirt into the stall, immediately pushing me against the wall and laying a hot kiss on me.

Never one to take a hot and willing girl for granted, I help her pull my shirt from my jeans and undo my belt. Her long, lithe fingers make expert work of my button and zipper before pushing my jeans down my legs. When her hand reaches into my boxers and wraps around my cock, I clench my teeth to stave off the fact that I’m already ready to explode. It’s been a while, and the fact that she pounced on me has me overly excited.

We continue kissing while she strokes me hard and fast. We are all teeth, tongue and lips. This girl has me so damn hot right now. I lift her skirt up and find tiny, purple thong underwear. I ease the scrap of material to the side and work my fingers into her wetness. She parts her legs slightly, allowing me to plunge my finger into her. My thumb rubs her clit, while my finger pumps in and out, rubbing along her swollen tissues.

I watch as Simone’s head falls back and a loud moan leaves her mouth. Her hand tightens on my cock while she strokes me, and I clench my ass muscles to stop from coming in her hand.

“I need you to fuck me, Jacob,” she purrs as I bring her closer to an orgasm. I’m one hundred percent on board with that plan. I reach down and into my pocket to grab a condom from my wallet. I rip the package with my teeth and quickly roll it down my length. I’m painfully hard right now. The thought of being inside a woman again has me teetering close to the edge.

Simone eases her panties down her legs and pushes me down on the closed toilet lid. The cool porcelain sends a shiver down my legs, but does nothing to cool the heat that she has me caught up in. I watch as she straddles me and slowly guides herself down the length of me. When she fully settles, her head falls back and a little moan comes from her. I grip her hips and start raising her up and down my cock slowly, all the while savoring the way her cunt muscles are pulling me in.

Man, I’ve missed sex.

Simone takes over, riding me faster and harder. I can feel her swelling and becoming tighter around me. I know she’s getting close. Her arms are wrapped around my shoulders, and her breath is panting across my lips. I slide my hands over her thighs, feeling her muscles as they move with each rise and fall of her body. My hands rest at the juncture of her legs and thighs. I squeeze her there when her pussy starts fluttering with her impending orgasm. I’m not sure I’m going to last much longer. Her silken heat is too much for me. I want nothing more than to give into the feelings rushing through my body and just pound into her until I explode.

My thumb moves to her clit and puts pressure there, slowly rubbing circles around her little nub. Her whole body tenses and she slams down on my cock, while her pussy squeezes me from her orgasm. My balls are tight and heavy, aching for that release. I take over the motions and I lift her again, pulling her down roughly while my hips surge up. After a few more times, I give into the sensations sliding up and down my spine and ride out how fucking good it feels.

Simone sliding up off me has me opening my eyes again. A satisfied smirk is on her face when she says, “Thanks love. I really needed that.”

I stand and dispose of the condom, pulling my boxers and jeans back up my leg. “Glad I could be of some assistance,” I say while lightly kissing her lips.

We both clean up and make our way for the door. I didn’t even pay attention to the fact that someone could have come into the bathroom during that scene. I mentally shrug and figure good for them if they heard how hot that was. I’m relaxed and carefree at this moment, so I don’t give a fuck.

Of course, the sight I’m met with when we get near our table has all my sedateness jumping out the window.

***

Kara

“Kara! Over here!” I hear my name being called out from across the bar. I crane my neck to find the source of it. After a few moments, I see Sophie and her boyfriend, Brad. I know Brad is Jacob’s good friend. I’m hoping that doesn’t mean Jacob is around here somewhere.

I first met Sophie at a fundraiser for work. She was the event coordinator, and I thought she was aces. I never had so much fun working on an event before. So, I was pleasantly surprised after Brooke’s funeral, when I realized that she was dating Jacob’s friend. We hung out at Murphy’s all night, until I realized how drunk Jacob was and took him home. We all know the disaster that followed after that.

I squeeze the hands interlocked with mine and nod with my head in their direction, silently communicating that we’re heading that way.

“Hey guys!” I say, smiling at the two lovebirds cuddled up together at their table. “Mind if we join you?”

“No! Not at all!” Sophie exclaims, eyeing my date gleefully.

“Cory, this is Sophie and Brad. Guys, this is Cory.” I make introductions, while trying surreptitiously to look around the bar for Jacob. When I don’t spot him, I relax a bit. That was a close call. I was afraid by coming here, I would run into him. Cory loves this place, though, and we are meeting some friends of his a little later. The last thing I wanted to do was explain to him why I was hesitant, so I decided to suck it up and deal with the consequences later.

Settling into the chairs across from the other couple, I set my drink down on the table and catch Sophie’s questioning glance. “Sooooo,” she drags the word out slowly, fishing for details. “How did you two meet?”

Cory speaks up before me, his hand grabbing mine on the table when he says, “At a fundraiser for Kara’s youth center. Turns out my employer is a major contributor to the great work she does.”

I look over at Cory, and my heart does a little flip flop. He really is handsome, with his short trimmed, dirty blond hair and gray-blue eyes. He has a wholesomeness to him. He is the complete opposite of Jacob’s darkness and bad boy aura. We met at a fundraiser a month ago, and he’s been pursuing me ever since.

It’s been a slow month in terms of our relationship. In other words, we haven’t had sex yet. I’m just not ready for that. The last time I did was with Jacob, and it went horribly wrong afterward. I’m a little gun shy after that experience. Besides, I don’t love Cory. I just don’t want to rush into anything.

“It’s a small world, huh?” Brad replies to Cory, who smiles in turn before tipping his beer towards Brad’s in acknowledgment.

“So how is everything? You two living together yet?” I ask, turning the conversation from me and Cory, back to them.

“Not yet,” Sophie says with a secretive smile.

“Soon,” Brad replies, wrapping his arm around her. Those two are so damn perfect together, it makes me heart hurt just thinking about it. I’d give anything to have that kind of love.

“Oh, here come the dirty birds,” Sophie mumbles to Brad. Brad gives her a look that can only be translated as him silently telling her to leave it alone.

I turn in my chair to see Jacob and a gorgeous creature walking out of the ladies’ room together. Sophie’s words clang in my brain as I put two and two together. Jacob and this woman were just screwing in the bathroom. The girl reaches up and wipes some lipstick from Jacob’s neck. He smiles at her and puts his arm around her waist.

My body stiffens. My heart starts racing, and I’m cringing. I don’t want to run into him now, especially knowing what he was just doing with her. There’s nowhere for me to hide though. And if I ran away, everyone would wonder what the hell was wrong with me. I don’t want to have to explain or give Jacob the satisfaction of knowing he got to me. So I sit there and watch them be intimate with each other like I would watch a train wreck as it is happening. I’m disgusted and want to puke, at the same time I’m idly fascinated by it.

Jacob turns his attention to the table and his face drains of all its color. He looks like he’s seen a ghost.

“Jacob,” I nod a hello in his direction. Cory puts his arm around my shoulder, leaning into me possessively. Could he have picked up on the change in my body when Jacob got near?

“Kara,” he says before looking down at Cory’s hand on my shoulder. A sneer crosses his beautiful face. “Who’s your friend?”

“Cory Thompson,” Cory responds holding his other hand out to Jacob. I watch as the two shake hands and size each other up. Could this really be happening right now?

“I’m sorry, we haven’t been introduced,” I say to the beautiful, exotic looking woman standing with Jacob. “I’m Kara Andrews.”

“Simone Delacroix,” she replies and geez I just want to kick her. Even her name is exotic.

“Are we in your seats?” I ask when neither of them makes a move to sit down. “We’ll just get going. We didn’t mean to intrude.”

Yes!
I feel like jumping for joy that I now have an excuse to get the hell out of here.

“Don’t be silly. We’ll pull up chairs from another table.” Jacob walks a few tables down and grabs two chairs not being used. Ugh! He is so frustrating.

He holds a chair out for Simone, but she doesn’t sit down. “Actually, darling. Why don’t we go dance?”

She grabs his hand and leads him away to the dance floor.

After a few minutes of small talk, Brad offers to go get us all drinks. Cory volunteers to go with him, leaving Sophie and me alone. She reaches across the table and grabs my hand. Giving me a sad, knowing look, she says, “I’m sorry. I had no idea you and Jacob had feelings for each other.”

I scoff and play dumb, but I’m no actress so I’m probably just coming off as pathetic. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Sophie sits back in her chair and gives me an “as if” look. “He just met her you know. I haven’t seen him with anyone in at least six months, if not longer. He’s still hung up on his ex. Some married girl I never met.”

“Samantha,” I mutter, wishing the ground would swallow me up whole. Thinking about how much he loves her, makes me sad and envious.

“One in the same. I don’t know all the details, but from what I gather he thought she was going to take him back after some stunning revelation was made. I’m under the assumption he threw himself at her feet and she still walked away from him.” She shakes her head with a sad look on her face. “He’s been immersing himself in work ever since. Tonight is the first night I’ve seen him out in a while. Simone just happened to be with us and they hooked up. I’m really sorry sweetie.”

“There’s nothing to be sorry for. Jacob and I are just too different. We would have never worked anyway.” I down the rest of my drink and look around for Cory. I really could use another one.

“Cory seems to be really into you,” Sophie continues not caring about my uncomfortableness.

“Yep. Sure does. Can we not talk about this? It’s awkward and really, the Jacob thing is no big deal.”

“Sure. Anything you want. Let’s talk about me,” she says with a wide grin. “I think Brad is going to propose! He’s been acting funny and says we aren’t going to live together until his ring is on my finger. I think it’s going to be soon!”

“Oh my God! That is so great! I’m so excited for you!” I squeal in delight at her news.
