One Last Kiss: A Second Chance Romance by Lauren Wood (33)


Chapter 6

Jaxon

 

It has been two days since I ran into Angela at the club and almost had my way with her. Ever since then I haven’t been able to think about anything else. The way she moaned and squirmed underneath me made me want to do extremely naughty things to her. The way her skin feels against mine was one of the most amazing feelings ever.

I never wanted to stop touching her.

“Hello Jax, what’s got your head in the clouds?” my sister asked as she’s been watching me for the past ten minutes trying to trim the thorns off the roses. But I’ve been lost in thought for so long that I accidentally cut the rose off from its stem.

I shook my head and said to my sister “It’s nothing.” But I knew she didn’t buy it. I tried my best to focus on cutting the thorns but every time I tried to focus a picture of Angela’s erotic expression would appear in my mind. It frustrated me that Angela was nowhere within my reach that I unconsciously slammed my hands on the table along with the thorn cutter making my sister scream and jump at my sudden action.

“Seriously Jax! Tell me what’s wrong or I’ll keep showing up at your apartment.” she threatened. I didn’t want my sister to ever come to my house, if she sees Angela she would definitely tell Angela things. “Does this have anything to do with a girl? What did she do now? Did she confess her undying love and wants a relationship or you got someone pregnant?” she asked.

“Geez Kathy, you make me sound like a shitty person.” I told her.

“You are a shitty person.” she snapped at me. “Well, you can always give her flowers and move to a different state.” If she says I’m a shitty person than she give shitty advice. We were once again in our own sibling battle of snarky comments. That’s until a customer came inside.

“Hello? We’re here to get flowers.” a woman called out. Kathy and I were hiding behind a wall of flowers. Kathy stepped out to entertain the customer. “What kind of flowers do you girls want?” Kathy asked.

“Our friend here has like a sister-in-law in the hospital and it’s her birthday.” the same woman spoke up.

“No problem,” Kathy said. “Hey Jax! Get the bright and cheery, daises from the back.” Ever since I started working with Kathy I’ve come to know the different meanings of each flowers and I would even know their names. If my friends saw where I was working then they would surely laugh at me.

I got the flowers that Kathy was talking about and walked out from the wall of flowers. That’s until I heard a flower pot shatter. I looked up and also froze in place. We had three girls standing in the flower shop and one of them was none other than Angela. How come I always run into her? Was there some kind of invisible string pulling us together?

“Well, well, well, look who it is.” Angela’s red headed friend said with a grin plastered on her face. My eyes were on Angela who was surprisingly even more beautiful than the last time we saw each other. That’s because she wasn’t covering up those adorable freckles on her face. I bet she noticed that I noticed because her cheeks turned a deep crimson color.

I noticed that Kathy’s gaze traveled between Angela and I, trying to figure out the situation at hand. Kathy’s eyes suddenly widened as she asked “Is this the woman you got pregnant?”

Suddenly all three girls had their eyes wide open including mine. Angela’s red headed friend turned towards her and asked “You’re pregnant?” Angela was quick to shake her head. The red head then turned towards me with a fierce gaze on her face “You got someone else pregnant other than Angela?” she hissed. The other girl just stood there awkwardly saying nothing.

“I wouldn’t be surprised though. My brother is a player.” Kathy added. The situation was getting more confusing by the second. I suddenly got frustrated and slammed my hands again on the counter making everyone in the room flinch. “First of all, I got no one pregnant. Angela just happens to be my next door neighbor.” I growled.

The situation only gave me headache and I was craving for a cigarette. My head was spinning that I wanted nothing more than to punch something or someone. I pushed the flowers into Kathy’s arms and stormed over to Angela which caught her off guard, I then buried my face into the crook of her neck. Her scent calmed the beast from within me. What did she do that night that has me at the end of my wits?

I could feel the other girl’s stare on me but I ignored them because the only people existing in this world of mine is Angela and I. I unconsciously wrap my arms around her waist and pressed her closer to my body.

“Jaxon?” she called out my name.

I just snuggled deeper into her neck and whispered for only her to hear “Let me stay like this just for a little while.” I could feel her arms were hesitant but she finally gave in and wrap her arms around me as well. Once my body felt at ease and I was no longer in a violent mood I slowly pulled away from Angela, ignoring the questioning stares coming from my sister and Angela’s friend.

“Jax, who’s this girl to you?” my sister couldn’t help but ask. Suddenly all four girls were awaiting for my answer including Angela herself. Judging by the smirk on my sister’s face she wants me to tell to all of them that Angela was nothing more than a bed warmer, a temporary woman to fulfill my needs, and nothing more than just another girl.

But she wasn’t.

I frowned in determination and wrapped my arm around Angela and bringing her close to me. “She’s my girlfriend.” I blurted out making not only Kathy but Angela’s friend shock as well. Even Angela was shocked herself. “Jaxon is your boyfriend and you didn’t tell me?” Angela’s friend asked. Before Angela could reply and ruin everything I tore the apron from my body and said “I’m going out with my girlfriend.” As I dragged Angela out of the flower shop with me.

I quickly took her to the subway where we can go home. I was lucky enough to get into one of the train trucks with just Angela and I, and no one else. Angela seemed to be in deep thought but the only thing on my mind were those lips of hers. She suddenly asked “Who said I would be your girlfriend?”

Somehow I knew she would ask that. We were both standing up as the train started moving. I leaned towards her so she was trap between the train doors and my arms. “Then tell me that if I kiss you then you won’t kiss back, that if I take off your shirt you will stop me, and that if I look into your eyes you won’t feel a thing.” I challenged her.

“But I’m not your type.” she reminded me, again.

I rolled my eyes and instead of saying anything I pressed an open mouth kiss to the crook of her neck. She even moved her neck so I had more access to it. I gently sucked on the soft white skin making her silently moan. She tried pushing me away but I quickly grabbed both of her hands and interlocked them with mine and pinned them on the train doors behind her.

“Jaxon… not here—ah!” she struggled to say but a moan escaped her lips. I was lost within her scent and the touch of her milky skin. I badly wanted to see those freckles on her body again and place my lips of them.

Unfortunately, the train came to a stop at our station and people were about to get on. I growled in frustration as I didn’t let go of her hand and started dragging her out of the train towards our apartment building. But Angela was having none of it as she managed to yank her hand out of mine and stopped walking. I turned towards her and noticed she had an annoyed look on her face.

“You say I’m not your type… then you claim I’m your girlfriend, twice! You lure me in only to tease me… I don’t understand you at all.” she said. “What exactly do you want?”

What did I want? Wasn’t it obvious?

“You,” her eyes widened by my answer. “I want you and only you. I want you in the worst way… your taste, scent, and feel of your body against mine… I want it all tonight.” I told her in a low tone.

“If you do take me then when we wake up… what will I be to you?” she asked. She didn’t bow her head nor look sad. She looked at me with eyes full of hope. I wanted to think this through, to think of the things that I would lose if I commit to a relationship but as I stare at my lovely Angela I can’t help but feel that she would be the only person I would ever want.

Silly, right?

I don’t have to think when it comes to her because I know that everything would be worth it when it comes to her.

“When I take you it would be like nothing you’ve experienced, and when we wake up you’ll belong to me and I’ll belong to you.” Those words made Angela’s eyes beam with happiness. It was all it took for us to continue the walk home.
