“Not as sorry as me. But, hey. It brought me here and I reunited with you.”
“You did,” he said, reaching his hand over and laying it on hers in the cab of his truck.
“How long are you going to make me wait?” she asked, laughing.
“Wait for what?”
“Come on, Knox. Are you that slow?”
“It seems I am.”
“How about how long are you going to make me wait until you take me to bed? I doubt you’re a virgin. You’re just too hot in that rough rugged kind of way.”
“Says no woman ever.”
“Then you’ve got clogged ears,” she said. “I’m being honest with you.”
He felt his face flush. “No man wants to admit other women find them hot. I remember myself as that eighth grader.”
“Stop doing that,” she said. “I see a man next to me. Not a boy. But a man I want.”
“I guess you can’t get any clearer than that,” he said, his foot hitting the gas.

FELT SO RIGHT
It felt as if Sage was the one making all the first steps. That wasn’t normally like her, but maybe she needed to do that to get her mojo back.
Watching Knox blush almost had her laughing.
Maybe he was still feeling the rejection from years ago and she didn’t want that for him. She knew what rejection felt like herself.
When his truck picked up speed, she held back her laugh, but she squeezed his hand quickly before he pulled it away and put it on the wheel.
He parked and they got out, him moving faster than she’d seen him move before.
The minute they got to her floor, she grabbed his hand and pulled him through the door and right to her room.
Her arms went around his neck, his mouth crushing hers.
This was the most aggressive lip lock they’d had yet. She had hoped that this was hidden inside of him.
Her hands went for his shirt and pulled it out of the waist of his jeans, yanking it up and over his head.
“Oh wow,” she said. “Now that is a nice chest.”
“Not too much hair?” he asked.
She started to laugh thinking about the conversation they’d had before.
“No,” she said. There was a sprinkling of it in places but nothing that she’d think anything about. “You teased me about this weeks ago. How come it’s taken so long for me to see it?”
“You haven’t given me any indication that you wanted to until now.”
She snorted. “Come on now, Knox. You can’t be that slow.”
She was thinking of all the kissing they’d done. How her body was rubbing against his more and more each time.
