I think about it, then hum. “No can do. I got a man.”
“What’s your man got to do with me?” Elise asks, joking right along with me. “Come on, be my wing girl. I’m not going to get my freak on, but I didn’t say I’m not gonna flirt. Drinks are on me.”
I shake my head, leaning back. “No, that’s okay Elise. Not saying I’m not interested in hanging with my best friend . . . I’m just sort of hoping to see or talk to Derrick after his show, know what I mean?”
“I know exactly what you mean. Four letter word, starts with L, ends with E. You know I . . .,” Elise says, her words failing her for a moment. “I’m happy for you Kat. I really am. Listen, I need to maintain my saucy bitchiness, so I’m gonna get ready to go. This weekend or something, girl time though, okay?”
“Only if you bring chocolate chip cookies to my place. And you can teach me about football. You dated a quarterback in college, right?”
Elise laughs. “I caught more balls from him than anyone on the team, but that doesn’t mean I know a damn thing about football. But we’ll figure it out together. Talk to you later.”
Chapter 17
Derrick
My phone is out of my pocket as soon as my front door’s closed, and I flop down in my favorite chair, the line ringing in my ear.
“Hey sexy man,” Kat purrs, making my cock twitch. “I thought I heard a little tension in your voice tonight. What, behaving while you talked about how to go down on a woman for three hours have you worked up?”
I reach down, massaging my already hardening cock. “Fuck Kitty Kat, you know I was thinking of you all show long. You were right to have your phone turned off. But . . . goddamn I couldn’t stop thinking of how good you taste.”
“Mmm, I was thinking of you too. Especially when you talked about doing that figure eight with your tongue, you naughty man, giving away your special move on me. Millions of women will thank you later.”
“Just need one,” I rasp, my cock hard and tenting my pants. “Fuck I miss you. Remind me again why we couldn’t get together tonight?”
Kat chuckles, lowering her voice just the way she knows I like it. “Because I have to put in a very long, hard day behind my keyboard tomorrow,” she teases. “Someone’s been keeping me so distracted with thoughts of his big cock pumping in and out of me that I’ve got a lot to catch up on.”
“You know I’m sorry about that,” I half tease. “I thought I was inspiring you.”
“Oh, you are, but if we saw each other tonight, we both know we’re not going to get any sleep. I’d spend all night with my legs wrapped around your hips, pulling you into me and holding you deep inside.”
“And that’s a problem why?” I tease, reaching for the button on my jeans.
“Because I have to put the finishing touches on this app for the presentation at the end of the week, you know how hard I’ve been working on this. Other than being with you, I’ve put nearly every minute of every day for the last few months into this and it’s all coming down to the presentation. I’ve got to prove myself as more than a one-hit wonder and the graphics are giving the team a hard time to integrate with the gestures sensing technology . . . oops sorry, get a little excited and fall down the rabbit hole sometimes. It’s just a few days apart and then we can have our next date at the football game.”
I run my hand through my hair, knowing she’s right, but also knowing that I have to have her. “I know, I just miss you. Your business doesn’t mean we can’t go back to our roots a bit though does it?”
There’s a throaty, sexy chuckle that makes my throat go dry, and Kat comes back on. “Definitely not. But promise me one thing . . . one and done, this can’t be an all-nighter.”
One and done? The way I’m feeling right now, it might be five minutes and goodnight, but I’ll do my best. “I promise.”
My phone dings, and I see she’s sending me a FaceTime call. I quickly hit the accept button, and what I see makes my jaw drop.
Kat’s grinning at me, already changed into a set of not trashy but definitely sexy lingerie, a sheer teddy and lacy boy shorts that give me quite a view of her ass cheeks as she poses, twirling for me before sitting down on her couch. “Whatcha think, boyfriend?”
“You little cock tease!” I growl, even as I grin. “You had this planned all along.”
