“Modest much?” I snark, finishing off my milkshake with a slurp.

“You know it.”

“Marry me then,” I remark with a shrug, my heart slamming against my chest. This is flirting on a whole new level for me, and I’m not sure how I feel about it.

“Only if you go commando under the wedding dress.”

Crane’s heated gaze sweeps over me, and my neck heats up, making me gulp.

“You’d want me naked on my wedding day?”

“Sierra,” Crane murmurs, leaning forward. “Girl, I want you naked all of the time.”

What the fuck?

“Okay, two fully loaded burgers with fries.” the server announces, sliding two plates onto the table with a smile. “Enjoy!”

“You’re so confusing.”

Crane shoves fries in his mouth, groaning with delight.

“Why?”

“You want me naked all of the time, you know we’d be good together, but this is a one-night thing?”

Crane grins, wiping his mouth with his fingers.

“What doyouwant, Sierra?”

My cheeks flame, and I know I’m backed into a corner.

I don’t know what I want, but I know the man in front of me is mostly everything I’ve ever wanted and more.

But I don’t want to commit to anyone. I'm too young.

“More of what we had tonight?”

Crane laughs, shaking his head at me.

“You want me to be your fuck buddy?”

He looks amused, and I take a huge bite of my burger so I don’t have to respond.

Is it such a bad idea?

Crane continues.

“Your brother would kill me. Like I said, you deserve more than that.”

“I don’t want more than that,” I remind him, sucking my fingers. “Plus you live with me…easy access.”

Crane chokes on his food, grabbing for his soda.

“Did you just say…easy access?” He’s coughing and laughing at the same time, and I can’t help but laugh.

“Well, it is.” I shrug, turning my attention back to my burger. “I think it makes complete sense.”

Crane sits back, watching me with a strange expression.
