them here?”
    “Seven bucks a pack, no thanks.”
    “Are you ok to drive? There are a lot of cops in town on
Friday nights.”
    “I had two beers, so yeah, I am pretty sure I am good.”
    “Just be careful.”
    “You worry too much.” Ryder reached out and gave her a
playful shove. She placed her hand on the spot where he touched her and looked
at him. Even that little touch made her tingle. This man radiated sex. His
green eyes raked over her body. “Oh little girl, you are something else.” He
leaned his head back against the head rest. A strand of hair fell into one of
his eyes and Corbin resisted the urge to remove it for him. With a shaky hand,
she tucked her own hair behind her ear and cleared her throat.
    “We should go. Rob should be stopping by soon.”
    “Chill out Cinderella, I’ll get you home before Prince
Charming arrives.” Ryder put the car in gear and backed out. They drove through
town in silence but Corbin’s thoughts were everywhere. Ryder got his cigs and
then they continued back to the apartment. Once there he offered her one and
this time she took it. He slid up on the car and patted the hood next to him.
She shook her head no, then walked to him and leaned in for a light. She turned
her back to him and leaned against the car.
    “Nice night tonight,” she stammered. Ryder didn’t respond.
She turned back to him. He was laying back, one arm behind his head. Due to his
arm position, his shirt rode up a little in the front revealing some of his
treasure trail. She wanted to kiss him there, run her fingers over the top of
his jeans.
    “I would love to be able to read your mind right now.” Ryder
sat up on the car then slid off right in front of her. Corbin uttered a nervous
laugh. He reached out and touched her cheek. She willed her legs to move but
she stood planted in front of him. She dropped her gaze to the ground.
    “I should go inside,” her voice quivered. She felt him place
a finger under her chin, and he forced her to meet his eyes. Without a second
thought she firmly planted a kiss on his lips. She felt Ryder’s hands tangle up
in her hair. All thoughts of Rob were thrown out the window. Ryder pulled her
head back and kissed and nipped at her neck. He pulled her close to him and she
felt his hardness against her. Corbin was breathless.
    “Goddamn, Corbin. You taste so good,” Ryder groaned against
her mouth. Corbin’s head whirled. No one had ever said that to her before.
Taken over by the scene and the alcohol, Corbin grasped for his belt buckle and
began tugging it off. Ryder grabbed her hand and stopped her. He was breathing
hard too.
    “What?” Corbin panted. She watched Ryder run and hand
through his hair. He took a deep breath and let it out slowly.
    “I can’t do it, Corbin.” He adjusted his belt.
    “Oh God, I am so sorry. I didn’t mean…” Corbin began. Guilt
settled into her gut again.
    Was kissing and touching considered cheating? If so, she
was a number one offender.
    “I drank too much, I didn’t mean to throw myself at you.”
She turned and hurried up the stairs. She heard Ryder following her up.
    “Corbin….” Ryder called from behind her. She ran into the
apartment and to her room. She locked the door behind her. Ryder knocked on the
door.
    “I do want you, Corbin. I have wanted you since the second I
saw you today.”
    “Just go away, Ryder, please.” Corbin changed into her
oversized sweatshirt and pajama pants. “Rob will be here soon.”
    “Ok. I have a date with a cold shower anyway. I am sorry,
Corbin.” She leaned against the door. Thoughts of him naked in the shower
flooded her mind again. Her thoughts were interrupted by Rob’s ringtone. She
picked it up and read the text:
    I’ll be late. Do you still want to talk?
    How late is late and yes

    Just come over. I need you
