She sighed. “Are we going to do this now? You want to go and screw one of the women here, Slade? Is that it? You bored already?”
“Fuck no!”
“Then what is your deal? I’m not bored. I’ve not told you I loved you, and you’re acting like I told you I was pregnant. Don’t listen to everything Jessica says, okay? She’s my friend. She’s allowed to do the whole threatening thing, and the worrying. Don’t put that shit on me.” She stood up, and this time he caught her wrist.
“Where are you going?” he asked.
“I’m going to dance with someone, and it’s not going to be you. If you want to be an asshole, you can sit here, and be an ass.”
She stormed onto the dance-floor, which only pissed Slade off. He was acting like an ass, and in doing so, she couldn’t seem to help her reaction to him. He seemed to get under her skin and drive her crazy.
He didn’t know what was wrong with him. Pushing Cassie away was not what he wanted to do. Running fingers through his hair, he forced himself to watch as Cassie was pulled into another man’s arms.
Slade’s hands clenched into fists as jealousy rushed through him, and then he took the time to watch her. Cassie wasn’t open in her dancing. She kept the guy at arm’s length, and there was no swaying of the hips, or drawing him in.
She was just having a dance with a person. There was no connection.
Stop being a fucking asshole, and go and get her.
He didn’t need to be told twice. Crossing the dance-floor, he wrapped his arm around her waist, and pulled her against him.
“Sorry, man, but this woman belongs to me,” Slade said.
The guy held his hands up. “No problem.”
Cassie wound her hands around his neck, but didn’t move. Her back was pressed to his front, and he kept his hands on her stomach.
“Are you done being stupid?” she asked.
“Yes.”
“Are we still friends?”
“Yes.”
“Do we still fuck?”
“Hell yes.”
He nibbled on her neck, breathing in her scent.
You’re falling for her.
She’s yours for the taking.
Take her.
Slade ignored all of his thoughts, finished the dance, and then made their way back toward their table just in time to eat their food.
