There’s no reason for them not to be interested in Selena She’s perfect She struts over to the When Selena ‘chats’ to boys, it’s never a fiveas she can and thankfully I’ve co like the roup They’ve lances at me and I wrinkle my nose up at her She’s definitely in her element Her beautiful, pink-lipped smile is in place and to er my way I shake uy with his back to s his arasp inwardly as the blood drains from my face I stare at the over-confident s-Marc

Chapter Four

I openface My cheeks are bright red, I can feel it Seth is intily gorgeous face Please, for the love of God, don’t let hiers curl around the top ofI notice is a baggy pair of dark navy jeans and a blue hoodie that’s pulled up over his black hair It’s unzipped, resting against his hard torso and exposing a strip of his bare, delicious midsection I clear my throat nervously as my eyes lock onto his and I try my absolute hardest to keep my eyes on his and not on the incredibly hard, incredibly te strip of flesh

"Is there room for one more?"

I open my mouth to tell him it’s taken, but he drops into the seat across fros fro mouth and I’ve never wanted to be an intimate object so badly in my life Seth pushes Selena’s fries out of the way and I lean slightly to look past hi e to scowl and I turnlea His index finger taps the table and ainst the wood He doesn’t say anything, but I can feel his eyes penetratingin a deep inhale through my nose in an attempt to control myself

"I’ the toothpick froe inwardly I didn’t les to the side as if he’s carefully studying me and one corner of his mouth twitches into a smile "Is this where you work?"

"No, I, uh, I work as a receptionist for a psychologist" Under the table, I fiddle with ers I’m so nervous and I have absolutely no idea how to handle this situation "I’m here for lunch with my friend" I nod my head towards Selena with his friends in the booth, but he doesn’t turn around to look

His leg brushes against h my body and I pull away If it were anyone else, I’d have left already, but with Seth I can’t seeet away Pleasure flares in the dark depths of his eyes and I wonder if I’ way He seeard him Problem is, I don’t kno else to treat hi more than for him to tear my clothes off, but on the other, I refuse to be that kind of girl and not to irlfriend

"If I didn’t know better, Olivia, I’d say you’re repulsed by me"

I feel my lips purse into a thin line and I think carefully about irl"

Seth pushes the hoodie fro his sexy, dark hair and leans forward on the table with his elbows His hair is short, but h it

"And what kind of girl is that?" He asks h it vibrates all uy who has a girlfriend"

Surprisingly, shock doesn’t register on his face Instead, he smiles a full smile that exposes his perfect, white teeth and I can feel ainst the booth and the ar forear fake boobs"

He glances at etically My scowl deepens because he doesn’t seeirlfriends"

His words deflate a balloon in lance out the ard the car park

"I have girls that I sleep with, but that’s the extent of it"

I drag ether "So you’re single?"

He shrugs "I prefer the terht, I’ I stick a chip in lance aardly around the steakhouse I feel so out of place having this big, sexy irlfriend issue up," His leg leans against mine and he sticks the toothpick back in his mouth He flicks it subtly across his ue barely seen behind his supple lips "What do we do now?"

His tone is, but I have no idea what he actually means I watch him as he sits before me with his broad shoulders and a snippet of his chest tattoo sticking out from underneath his jacket His eyes drop frolio disappeared, and they see darkly at me from across the table I open my mouth ready to comply hatever he wants to do, until Selena clears her throat, bringing me back to irl that has sex with someone I barely know or at least I don’t think I a his attention to Selena I see her chest rise and fall rapidly under his gaze At least I’m not the only one affected by his presence

"O," She says, turning her eyes on itated I can tell by the way she rubs her fingers together at her sides and purses her pink lips I wonder what those boys said to her

"Sorry," I say to hio"

I reach across and grab lance at er and I’ my eyes on the table When I turn away fro lance over ht suarantee Selena has a firs roup of boys and they laugh loudly When we’re outside and out of earshot I ask her what happened

"They’re gross" She states simply

I don’t press the unlock button on er door iross?"

"They thought I was a prostitute and they wanted to pay for blowjobs in the bathroo a se of her nose ainst the car, leaning all of ins to burn

"It’s not funny" Selena groans

Tears squeeze their way out of the corner of e to say in between deep breaths of air "I’usted" The wind blows a soft, blonde curl into her face and she swipes at it "Can you unlock the God daet out of here?"

When I press the button, she wastes no ti the door and sliding in behind the wheel
