“No.” He snapped, slowly lowering his arm back to his side and jutting his chin, folding his arms over his chest.
“No?” I repeated, taking another half step forward. Theo stayed rooted to the spot this time, though he did lean back a little.
I stopped moving. “I won’t rape you, y’know.” I ran a hand through my waves, brow furrowing, feeling slightly alarmed that he’d think that“I wouldn’t…I’m joking. Sorry.”
Theo seemed taken aback, like I’d said something strange.“I-I know.” He stammered, finding his voice again, lowering his gaze to the floor. Embarrassed. He was embarrassed.
“You know…” I licked my lips uncertainly, hovering where I stood “we could forget about this.”
“Huh?” Theo snapped his head back up, confused.
“What happened that night.” I swallowed hard “if it makes you…uncomfortable, we can just…forget about it. We’re in the same group so…so we should try to get along. And we kind of don’t. So if it’s-“
“I can’tforget about it.”Theo said, body tense “how can Iforget about it?”
My shoulders lifted and dropped again in a small, apologetic shrug “I’m just trying to say I don’t usually argue with people. Don’t like it much. So if we can…if we can fix this, it’d be great.” It was true.
A million emotions flashed across his face.
“We’re cool then.” He grumbled eventually, once he’d realised that he’d been silent for a few beats too long “no need to cry about it.”
Unbelievable.That wasn’tmydefinition of being cool with someone.
“You don’t, uh…sound very convinced.” I pointed out, rubbing my jaw in discomfort.
Before I could process what was happening, Theo took three steps forward to close the distance between us and slammed his lips onto mine.
I froze in shock, not expecting the contact to be initiated by him whilesober,but quickly snapped back to my senses and kissed him back, shoving him backwards until his back hit the door,
“Wait a moment.” I mumbled against Theo’s lips, seconds later “we can’t- you can’t solve this withmore sex.”
“But I amsogood at it,” Theo mumbled back, dipping his head slightly to kiss the crook ofmy neck. He licked a trail up to my ear. “Satisfaction guaranteed.”
“Danes-“
“We don’t have a problem.” Theo groaned, pulling back just enough to be able to speak, eyes clouded with need and lust.
I was happy enough with that statement; I dropped the subject in favour of rolling my hips against him. I could feel the outline of his erection against my thigh.
He moved his lips along my throat and jawline.
I pushed him towards the sofa; Theo fell down onto the edge of it.
“Say stop only if you mean it, yeah?” I mumbled, staring at him intently. “Okay?”
“Yeah,” Theo muttered, “Okay.”
I reached over my back to pull my tank top over my head, concealing my wince, as Theo sat there staring. God, he washot.
I pushed Theo’s shirt up; he tore it off.
My lips trailed over his collarbone, his chest, his nipples, hooking my fingers beneath the waistband of his sweatpants. I felt like I might be dying. I’d never felt such a strong need to get off before, and the feeling was mirrored in Theo’s gaze.
It was different from last time; he was more coherent now, had a better grip on reality, and that made me feel much better about what we were doing.
I shoved him down into the cushions of the couch as I licked and bit gently at his cock through the fabric; his hips rose and he moved one of his hands into my hair. Encouraged, Ipulled down Theo’s pants and underwear to his thighs, freeing his leaking cock and taking him in my mouth without any trace of hesitation.
Theo moaned so loudly I could have come just from the sound of it.
