A mixture? An adventure? A little bit messy. A little bit beautiful.
“I love it.”
At my declaration, she relaxes. She seems closer, even though she never took a step away. Her palms glide up my chest, and I lean into her touch.
“It’s really so easy to change your mind?” She searches my face as if it holds the key to a quest.
“I guess so.” I like to think of myself as open-minded. And heaven knows, I’m curious. Always learning new things. When I see something that interests me, I go for it, down the rabbit hole. Jump first, asking questions the whole way down. It’s my nature, and the zest for knowledge has served me well. “All the data points are there.”
She laughs, and I’m glad I amuse her. It’s even better than frustrating her. “Data points?”
I slide my hand down to cup the side of her neck. She’s glowing with that mischievous look again, and I’m pretty sure I’m gonna get teased about my thirst for numbers.
“Yeah, let’s forget I geeked out there.”
“No.” She shakes her head emphatically. “Let’s not. I want to hear about these data points.”
“Seriously?”
“I’ve been trying to figure out what makes you tick for two years, Gabriel. Lay it on me.”
“Gah—Katherine—You can’t say that to a man.”
Down, boy.
She smirks. Little Miss Buttoned-Up knows exactly where my mind went, and she likes it.
What is happening between us?
“The data points?” Her fingers walk up my chest, and then she takes a step away from me. “I saw a rag in the other room. I expect to be wowed with analytics when I get back.”

GABE / KATHERINE
Gabe
She’s back in a few seconds, kneeling down to mop up the coffee.
My cock aches at the sight.
I should not be daydreaming about her unzipping my pants and pulling my cock out. Wrapping those pretty pink lips around it. Teasing me with her tongue.
Fuck.
I bend down, scoop the coffee cups off the ground, and head for the kitchen in search of a trash can. Or a bag.
“Did you guys seriously get into a food fight?” Alex’s voice cuts through the quiet, saving me from having to detail all the reasons I’m enjoying myself.
Katherine
I bite my lip as a blush burns my cheeks.
“Something like that,” I quip as Alex enters the room.
Gabe is frozen in the kitchen, coffee cups in hand. I tug my gaze away and keep my back to his best friend.
What was I thinking?
