Teasing Phoenix novel Chapter 3

SAM

My smile won't just wipe away from my face after talking to Phoenix. A unique name to a gorgeous God-looking guy. Just his face, women will spread their legs for him. He's also funny. His deep husky voice makes him sexier.

My jaw just drops when I look at him-his disheveled brown hair looks freshly showered. Those thick eyebrows and wicked gray eyes surrounded by thick eyelashes gleam in the moonlights. And my God, those full red lips, and not to mention the bulging biceps that make my fingers itch.

I can even see the hint of his pack abs through his shirts. I'm sure the V down there was drool-worthy.

I can't even believe I actually told him about what happened earlier with Tyler. How he laughed so much at my failure of guessing his brother's name, and those laughs-he makes my heart beat faster.

But I'm sure I'm not going to see him again. Well, there's nothing wrong with daydreaming, right?

I'm sure he won't remember me after tonight. But God, just his touch alone, it makes my body alive. My blood rushes through my veins and makes my heart flutter erratically.

I had to leave him before I was going to lose my mind.

There are those feelings that make me stay and talk to him all night and feel his body against mine. I shake my head.

I'm a relationship type of person, and I can see that he doesn't do that.

My chest tightens. The stupid hormone. I was just harassed by my ex and now I'm thinking of another man. Not good!

When I get back to bed, my mind lingered to those beautiful tantalizing gray eyes again.

This is for not having sex for a year.

I groan and close my eyes, hoping to get a good sleep.

Monday comes. I sigh helplessly as my mind is still preoccupied with Phoenix.

Why can't I just forget him? I need to get laid, but I don't even know how to flirt.

"Earth to Sam. Where is your mind flying?" Maya nudges me from her seat.

"Just didn't have enough coffee this morning. How's Garrett?" Her fiancé is a kickboxing trainer. Wait! That can be the same gym where he works, right?

"We're having dinner with his friend on Saturday. Join us with Amy." Her fiancé is very sweet, and it makes me sad that no one does to me the way he does to Maya.

"I'll let you know if I can come. Thanks for inviting me though."

Amy approaches our seats, smiling with her signature red lips. "Hey girls! How're your weekends?"

"Hi! Mine was boring. I can see that your weekend seemed pretty colorful."

She blushes, and I exchange a look with Maya.

"Come on. Who was the lucky guy that got a chance to grab those boobies?" Maya teases her that makes us giggle.

"He's here in college. He was good in bed, and not to mention how huge he is. Oh, my God! He gave me the best orgasms," she whispers, making us both laugh at her.

"How huge, Amy? And really, orgasms? Did you spend your night with him?" I curiously ask.

At least she always gets laid. Maybe I should try sometimes. A one-night stand is not that bad, right?

"Huge, Sam." Her eyes were glossy. "I didn't spend the night with him. We just had sex in his apartment, then after a few rounds, I left as soon as he fell asleep. It's been a year, Sam. You should try clearing your cobwebs already.

I cower on my seat. Thank, God! I am saved by our professor who just arrived. She can't anymore torture me with preaches about my lonely inactive sex life.

Classes end. We walk together to the parking area because we have the same shift in the coffee shop today.

"I actually met someone last Saturday. He's-"

Before I can continue, Amy grabs my arm. "Wait, you get laid Saturday night? Why I don't even know you went on a date."

I roll my eyes. "I didn't go on a date and I definitely did not get laid. Jeez, I just met him after sending Tyler home."

Her eyes widen because I haven't told her about the incident.

She glares at me. "You sent Tyler home? Are you insane? Why are you still talking to that jerk after what he did to you?"

I sigh in defeat-I know I can't let this topic go if I won't tell her and Maya. "He was drunk, so he called me and asked a favor. Then he kissed me in front of his home."

They ew in unison.

"Is that how you get that cut on your lip? He forced you?" Maya asks, giving me her sympathy looked. "Don't ever talk to him again, I'll let Garrett break his face."

"No need to be violent, okay? I'm fine."

We reach our cars, but Amy isn't done-she grabs my arm again.

"What?" I snap.

"Not so fast, sweetie. Tell me about the hot dude."

I roll my eyes and groan. "Nothing to tell. The new owner will kick us outside his shop if we will be late for our work." I open my car, get inside, and close the door.
