I tried everything to tell the cute guy that Adam was kidding, or hit in the head by too many football players, but he frowned at both of us and walked quickly away. I couldn’t believe it. I actually couldn’t believe it. And Adam had a stupid, smug smile on his face and gave me an easygoing shrug, like he hadn’t just lied to a random man and told him I was pregnant?
Furious, I crossed my arms over my chest. "You walk around like you have the biggest dick on campus."
"You want me to prove it?" he taunted. "Open your mouth."
For too long, I gazed up at him, and Adam kept his eyes on me. Heat pooled between my legs.
Oh my god.
Getting flustered at something Adam said was a mistake. Because he knew it. Like how a shark smells blood in the water. A smirk crossed his face, self-satisfied and arrogant.
I wanted to wipe that smirk right off his stupid face.
Words wouldn’t cut it. Nothing I could say would topple him. I could’ve told him we needed to communicate like adults, and maybe that would have changed the night, but I didn’t want to be the bigger person. I wanted to get even. I wanted to put the linebacker in his place like nobody else dared to.
My eyes flickered across the room, landing on the double doors leading to the porch outside. "Let’s talk."
"Fine."
I motioned him to follow me. It was quiet between us, which didn’t mean anything. I couldn’t take away the buzz vibrating over my skin. How he affected me. How he knew he affected me.
"We’re going to spend the whole semester together," Adam muttered. I unlocked one of the doors and pushed it open, gesturing for him to step outside. "There’s this crazy sexual attraction between us, ice princess. And if we can’t learn to handle it, it’s going to fuck all this up."
I resisted the urge to roll my eyes. "Uh-huh."
"Piper?"
I glanced up to see him leaning against the door frame, gazing down at me with those dark eyes again. He tilted his head back, watching me. A slow smile crossed his lips. "I can do this if you can."
I resisted the urge to smile. And when he stepped to the porch, I closed the door after him.
With a huge grin, I flipped the lock, locking the Marrs Manwhore outside.

Let’s Fucking Party
There was no fucking way Piper Fontaine locked me out.
I yanked the door, shaking it on its hinges.
Goddammit.
Piper gave me a light shrug.
"What the hell?" I banged on the glass. "Piper! Piper!"
She came close to the glass and spoke loud enough for me to hear. "This is your babysitter putting you in a time-out."
"This isn’t funny!"
"This isn’t meant to be funny!"
I rapped my knuckles against the glass again, but Piper strode ahead. I walked alongside her on the porch, trying to spot another way in, but Piper was one step ahead of me, locking it too.
"You’re worried that I’ll make this party fun!" I shouted. "Because you couldn’t stand that, ice princess! You wouldn’t know a good time if it bit you in the ass!"
