Holding You (Love Wanted in Texas #3) - Page 34/108

Not moving my eyes from his, I couldn’t help but notice how blue they were. Was it his T-shirt or was it because they seemed to be lit up with passion? Or love.

Closing my eyes, I took in a few deeps breaths before opening them again and capturing his eyes once more. “I love you, Colt. I’ve loved you for so long.”

Yes. Oh, yes indeed. That was love I was seeing in his eyes. The way he stared into my eyes was like he was trying to stare into my soul. “I want you, Lauren. Now.”

Nodding my head, I said, “Okay. Where?”

Colt took a step away from me and looked around. “Where is your stuff?”

“Um . . . it’s back at the table.”

“Do you need to study, baby?”

Shaking my head frantically, I said, “No! No, I’m ready for the test. I don’t need to study.”

Oh my glitter. Calm down, Lauren. Take a deep breath. Focus. At this rate I was gonna jump on him and screw him right here in the library. Hmm . . . that actually isn’t a bad idea. No no . . . focus Lauren. There was no way I was passing up a chance to be with Colt to study for a damn chemistry test. The hell with that.

Attempting to not sound like a crazy, horny person, I calmly said, “Let me grab my stuff.”

Colt winked and stepped to the side, allowing me to go first. Glancing down, I held in my moan as Colt adjusted his hard-on.

I wanted to skip all the way back to the table knowing that I had Colt turned on like this. Walking up to the table, Jimmy looked at me and smiled. I felt Colt come up beside me and slip his hand around my waist. I loved how he made sure everyone knew I was his.

His. I was Colt’s. The thought of it still amazed me and caused my stomach to drop. No one ever made me feel so amazing. Colt was for sure the stuffing to my Oreo.

Jimmy’s smile faded as he looked down at Colt’s arm. Thinking nothing about it, I looked around the table. “Hey, I hate to do this to y’all but something has come . . . up . . . and I need to take care of it.”

Colt squeezed tighter on my waist and my insides exploded with the need to feel him inside me.

Jimmy looked away and didn’t utter a word. Mindy Jackson, who had a crush on Jimmy and why he couldn’t see that I had no idea, was the first to bid me good-bye. “No worries, Lauren. If you need any study help, give me a call and we can meet up.”

Giving her a polite smile, I nodded my head. “Thanks, Mindy! I appreciate that. Later, y’all!”

Colt moved his arm out from around my waist and grabbed my bag and books. It wasn’t until we walked away that I realized I didn’t even introduce Colt to anyone. Shit.

“Hey, I wasn’t even thinking back there. I didn’t introduce you,” I said as we walked toward the exit.

Colt smiled at me. “I didn’t even notice. All I can think about is one thing.”

Widening my eyes, I quickly looked around. A naughty thought occurred to me and I grabbed Colt’s arm and began leading him in the opposite direction of the parking lot exit.

“Lauren, where are we going?”

Glancing back over my shoulder, I gave him a naughty smile and whispered, “You’ll see.”

Walking up to the main desk, I glanced down at the young girl’s name on her name tag.

Leaning in close so I didn’t speak too loud, I asked, “Hi, Candace. Is it possible to reserve a study room for right now?”

Candace looked up from her reading and gave me a weak, but polite smile. Then she glanced over to the god standing next to me and she perked up. Sitting up a bit taller, she flashed a beautiful smile toward Colt. “Yes, of course we have a few available.”

“Perfect, my boyfriend and I have a huge chemistry test to study for.”

Her smile faded a bit, but she quickly took down my student information and booked us a room. “I’ve got you booked for two hours in room two seventeen.”

Flashing her a smile, I turned to Colt and winked. “Shall we?”

His smile made my knees wobble. Glancing over my shoulder back to Candace, Colt said, “Thank you, Candace. Have a wonderful day.”

“Oh . . . um . . . yeah . . . you, too.”

Poor girl. I knew exactly how she felt . . . Colt Mathew’s smile had rendered me nearly speechless many times.

Making our way to the study room, I felt my heartbeat increasing. Oh. My. Glitter. Was I really going to have sex with Colt in a study room . . . at school . . . with other people so close by? Yes. Yes I sure as hell was.

Smiling a smile so big my cheeks started to hurt, I prepared to get my sexy on.
