BXBX NOVEL Chapter 255 - What She Wants (2)
In a crowded bar in South Los Angeles, Sarah and Aiden are observing few patrons who are fawning over one female, acting inappropriately. The female does not look interested, but they are persistent.
Sarah\'s eyes lit up. \'This might be what I\'m waiting for.\'
Four rowdy men exited the bar with a woman. She seemed somewhat intoxicated, and definitely not willing to go with them.
Sarah and Aiden followed from the distance.
Four men got the woman cornered in a nearby narrow alley and started approaching her slowly.
Aiden stayed at the entrance, while Sarah got inside the alley, and moved silently toward the men.
They didn\'t even see who it was or what it happened. In two seconds, all four men were sprawled on the ground, unconscious.
The woman was in the corner, staring at Sarah and shivering. Any trace of her being under the influence was now gone, probably from shock.
Sarah looked at her, displeased. "Leave! Now!"
Sarah was in the bad mood when she returned to Aiden.
"What happened?" He asked.
"Nothing... I did not get instigated." Sarah was disheartened. "They were too weak and collapsed right away."
"Do you want to try again? Different place?"
Sarah shook her head. "No, let\'s go back. We can try next time."
They put their motorcycles helmets on and drove off towards the storage unit where they parked red BMW convertible car.
…
JoAnna is in the pantry. There is more than dozen bags of chips... all are ribbed ones, but different flavors. \'I guess I was not specific enough. It seems that Steve bought all types of ribbed chips available.\' JoAnna took one bag with a flavor she never tasted before and went to the living room to watch TV.
She settled on the sofa and found a drama to watch.
Few minutes later, Jeff sat next to her. "What are you watching?" He took the chips bag out of her hands and kept it away.
JoAnna frowned at the snack which was now out of her reach. "Not sure yet. I just started watching."
She leaned on him and inhaled his fresh-out-of-shower scent. "You smell nice."
Jeff looked at her settling next to him, finding a comfortable position and could not believe that is JoAnna. In his apartment. Right there, next to him.
Jeff was in a daze, when JoAnna exhaled and said, "Let\'s go to bed." JoAnna turned off the TV and headed to the bedroom. Halfway she stopped and turned around. Jeff was still sitting on the sofa, looking at her.
"Don\'t just sit there, dazed... Come on.", She called and continued to the bedroom. Oversize bathrobe was dragging on the floor behind her.
When Jeff entered the bedroom, JoAnna kept the robe on the bathroom doors, where she found it, and walked back to the bedroom. She was wearing light blue pajama short sleeve t-shirt and shorts. Jeff was concerned about all that exposed skin... \'Will I be able to control myself when I can touch so much of her skin? ... So beautiful...\' He watched her hop on the bed and disappear under a thin blanket.
JoAnna was nervous… aware that she is in Jeff\'s apartment, in his bed... just the two of them. Will they just hold each other, like last few times when they slept together, or will they take it further? Her heart is beating like crazy, and she covered her head with a blanket. The bed is filled with his scent, making JoAnna\'s face feel hot while she thought of Jeff. \'Luckily, the only source of light is the fireplace, otherwise he would see my face red like a ripe tomato from embarrassment.\'
JoAnna wondered why is he not coming over? She saw him at the door. \'Did he leave?\' Why did she feel upset at the thought that he left? \'Do I want him to come? What do I expect it will happen? Probably nothing... Am I disappointed at the thought that nothing will happen?\' Hundreds of thoughts flashed through JoAnna\'s mind, each one revealing to her a little bit of what she wants. \'Why is he still not here?\' She realized that she wants him next to her. In the bed.
JoAnna pulled blanked off from her face and propped herself up on her elbow. Jeff is standing at the door and staring at her. "If you stay there frozen five more seconds, I will take that as if you don\'t want me in your bed."
When JoAnna gets nervous, her brain involuntarily switches to one of two possibilities. One is that she just freezes, like most of the girls, and the other option is that she will use sarcasm and tease people. That seems like sarcasm and teasing to others, but in reality, she is actually brutally honest, speaking her mind.
Jeff snapped out of his daze and rushed to the bed while she hid her nervousness behind giggles.
\'Yes, I am nervous, but it seems that Jeff is more nervous than I am.\' This thought gave JoAnna boost of confidence.
When he settled under the blanket next to her, JoAnna cupped his face in her hands and kissed him. It took him a split second to start returning her kisses. In no time both of them breathed heavily while their tongues followed each other\'s rhythm.
When Jeff felt that he is close to his limit, he broke the kiss and hugged her tightly.
JoAnna felt his heavy, hot breath brushing against her ear.
Feeling him this close, their legs intertwined, knowing that he is holding back because of her, inhaling his scent… made her lose herself. She realized that she can\'t resist the temptation of being with him. She does not want to resist it. JoAnna\'s need to be with him exploded, filling every cell in her body. She had no option than to surrender herself to this desire which is mixed with madness. She does not care about Isabella, or his parents, or anything else… the only thing important is that she loves him, and he loves her back… and she wants him… just as he wants her, if not more.
JoAnna moaned in protest that he stopped kissing her, but he misunderstood.
"Sorry... I\'ll behave." He panted.
"I wish you wouldn\'t." She whispered.
JoAnna felt his body stiffen at her words. She tilted her head and kissed his neck while her hands went under his top. She was careful, gently moving her palms over hard muscles of his back, aware that he is bruised up.
"Anna..." Jeff struggled to talk as her kisses on his neck and the touch of her hands made his desire for her increase exponentially. "I won\'t be able to hold back."
\'Why is he holding back? Didn\'t he get it by now that I don\'t want him to hold back?\' JoAnna was amazed how thick he can be sometimes. "I don\'t expect you to hold back." Even after she said this, he didn\'t move, as if he is frozen. \'It seems that I need to clearly state what is on my mind.\' She looked at his face while he tried to decipher her words. She lifted her arms and laced her fingers in his hair. "You are adorable and infuriating at the same time.... Jeffrey White, if you don\'t kiss me in three seconds, I will take that as if you don\'t want to make love to me."
