Dating Two Dragons (45 page)

Groaning softly, Tessa put her hand on the wall for support but she was now in a part of the house she didn’t know. If she had to guess, she’d be on the second floor, although she couldn’t really remember how she got there.

“Lucas, I hate you, know that?” Stuttering slightly, Tessa’s words made Lucas chuckle before petting her shoulder as he steered her into a guest bedroom.

“I know, Tessa.”

When Tessa cracked open her eyes, she knew she was awake somehow, but when she closed them she couldn’t open them again. She felt Lucas set her on something soft, which was probably a bed, and take off her shoes.

Then, he leaned over her to press his lips to her forehead, and she silently marveled at how soft they were before the alcohol made everything go black.

“-sa, Tessa wake up.” Who knew such a small amount of alcohol could result in such a massive hangover? Tessa hadn’t, or she never would’ve accepted the drink in the first place. Groaning softly, she pushed away the hand that lay on her back, gently shaking her, and tried to snuggle back into the pillow she’d been hugging.

“Come on, Tessa. It’s time to wake up- it’s almost noon. Our parents have already left for work.” Lucas’s voice sounded a whisper next to her ear, and she huffed lightly, reluctance seeping into her bones. The gentle nudging quickly turned into a soothing rubbing motion, and she wiggled a little in satisfaction- like a cat.

“You’re too cute, you know that?” For a while Tessa let Lucas rub her back, but after those few moments were gone she realized that she wasn’t in the clothes she’d worn the night before.

“You better not have raped me.” Grumbling, Tessa forced one of her eyes open to glance at Lucas as a big smirk slid across his face. His hand stopped circling to move downwards towards her butt, only to stop short. She honestly wasn’t sure if she should be disappointed or not, but the headache behind her gaze told her she was still tipsy.

“It’s not rape if you like it, Tessa.” Frowning slightly, Tessa pushed herself up on her hands but didn’t think the action through when Lucas’s hand landed right on her backside. Thankfully she was wearing pants of some sort, but the thought only made her frown turn into a scowl.

“Your mom changed you, just so you know. And you look amazing in my sweats, Tessa.” Shooting her a wink, Lucas squeezed Tessa’s butt lightly and she was feeling too groggy to care. If he hadn’t woken her up, she would’ve slept all day.

“I hate you, Lucas Brown. I really, really hate you.” Mumbling, Tessa may have said the words but she felt her face heat up and butterflies erupt in her tummy from how close Lucas was. Closing her eyes briefly to try to dull the throbbing inside her skull, she let out a soft gasp when he trailed his hand back up to her shoulder blades, dragging her shirt up as well.

“You’re so beautiful, Tessa. I thought that before this stupid project. Now I know you’ve got a personality.” Whispering huskily, Lucas had leaned forward so his mouth was almost on Tessa’s and she wasn’t sure if she’d heard him right. Beautiful? Her? There was no way he thought that kind of thing because she wasn’t beautiful- just average.

“You’re a horrible li-“ Cut off suddenly, Tessa’s eyes popped open even as Lucas pushed her onto her back, his lips borderline devouring hers. Their kiss was frenzied, and she soon found herself with her hands in his hair and his body covering hers as he held himself on strong arms. One of his hands pushed up the rest of her shirt to expose her breasts, pinching and pulling her left nipple. Moaning softly, Tessa arched her back and sucked in a breath when Lucas pulled back a little to nip her lower lip.

Somehow Tessa’s legs were around Lucas’s waist, and judging by the bulge against her thigh he didn’t mind it at all.

Logic, though, came crashing down on her swiftly and with force, making her pull away from Lucas completely to gasp for air.

“Wh- what are you doing? Why-“ Instead of letting Tessa get her questions out, he descended on her chest to lick and suckle on her right nipple, blowing all of her thoughts and logic to dust.

When was the last time someone had touched her? Tessa didn’t know, but it had been a long time. She wasn’t a virgin, but she didn’t prowl the streets looking for someone to have sex with. Her body was uncomfortably hot, and only grew more so as Lucas pushed her hips against the sheets with his own.

“L- Lucas… Oh- God…” Shuddering as Lucas scraped his teeth against her areola, Tessa started to grind against the bulge in his own sweat pants as she arched her back up off the bed, tightening her grip on his hair. Groaning, he started to move lower towards her belly, and she unlocked her legs from around his waist to give him some room.

Catching in her throat, Tessa’s breath came out in short, shallow pants as Lucas mumbled her name before yanking off her sweat pants and underwear in one fell swoop. Staring at her, his gaze only made her hotter, more flushed, and she tried to close her legs only to have two rough palms hold her open by her inner thighs.

“Lucas… N-no… sto- Ah!” A calloused thumb touched the swollen bead that crowned her lower lips, and Tessa flopped with a soft cry.

“I don’t want to stop, Tessa.” Practically growling, Lucas began to rub circles on her most sensitive spot and she couldn’t protest. What they were doing was crazy, stupid, and a host of other negative things.

Sometimes, though, Tessa needed to be a little crazy.

Leaning forward, Lucas kissed her mouth hard and increased the pressure of his hand. Letting her own hands roam his shirtless torso, Tessa wondered at all of the hard muscle under her fingers. It was all hers, even if only for the moment.

Moaning as Lucas slid his finger, up her moist slit, spreading her juices, Tessa lifted her hips as his tongue slithered behind her teeth. Everything about the moment made her light headed and aroused beyond belief. She didn’t even care if she was being used because it just felt so good. Never before had she been so hot and bothered in her limited experience.

“You’re so wet for me, Tessa.” Murmuring against her lips, Lucas pulled away from Tessa’s face to make his way back to her chest. The dark buds tightened and swelled, and her moaning got louder. Looks like he’s found an instant go to spot.

Working on her chest, Lucas sunk his middle finger past her slick folds and Tessa bucked her hips. The feeling was so alien she almost tried to get him to stop again, but the feeling of his hot mouth on her chest, his thumb against her clitoris and his finger twisting and pumping inside her was too much.

“I- if you d- do- don’t stop… I- I’m gun-na…” Panting, Tessa felt her lower regions tense up, constrict, and she tangled her fingers into the sheets. She was so close it was going to drive her mad. Whimpering torturously, she felt Lucas curl his finger against her inner wall and it was enough to make her world explode.

Tessa’s orgasm was hard and hit fast, causing her eyes to squeeze tightly together and her lips to part in a silent scream. She kept her eyes closed for a long time as her panting died down and her legs began to tremble. It was more because she was afraid of Lucas’s reaction to the pleasure he’d given her than anything else.

When she did open her eyes, Tessa was kind of shocked to find that Lucas didn’t look smug or wear an expression of manly pride. He was just staring at her, with his middle finger in his mouth, through half lidded eyes. After a moment, she somehow managed to find her voice, although it was weak and wispy.

“Why did you do that?” Popping his finger out of his mouth, Lucas cracked a smile before crawling over her to pull her shirt back down. He didn’t say anything for a few seconds, and it worried Tessa.

“…Because I really like you, Tessa, and I know you like me too.” Smiling gently, Lucas reached down to pull Tessa’s underwear up over her legs and hips, and for the moment she just let him take care of her.

“This was a mistake.” With their faces so close together, Tessa knew Lucas had heard her, and he tensed- his hand only halfway done with pulling her black sweat pants over her legs.

“No, it wasn’t, Tessa. If I didn’t respect you it would’ve gone all the way, and you know it. Just give me a chance.” To Tessa, it almost sounded like Lucas was borderline begging. His dull blue eyes pleaded with hers, and his fingers traced circled on her inner thigh. Biting her lip, she wasn’t sure of what to say or even what to think.

“I- I don’t know.”

Nibbling her lip, Tessa walked into her Human Biology II course on Monday feeling less than excited. The situation with Lucas was hitting a critical point, and after avoiding him all of Sunday there was a certain amount of apprehension flowing in her veins.

Until, that is, Lucas sauntered through the door with Shantal next to him. Like Tessa, Shantal had bronzed skin and a curvaceous figure, but she was a few inches shorter. Tessa liked to think she was prettier than the whore that went around campus.

Still, Tessa felt a little light headed as the blood drained from her face and her heart ached in her chest. Was Lucas lying when he said he liked her? Was it all a trick to get into her pants? Ducking her head the questions went on in circles and Tessa bit her lip hard. In between her fingers, her pen shook noticeably and a lump formed in her throat.

Lucas Brown wasn’t any different than she’d initially thought.

“Tessa, are you okay?” Lucas’s question made Tessa scowl a little into her notebook. Since when did she care so much about a boy? The answer wasn’t one she wanted to face.

“Peachy.” Grumbling out a response, Tessa scooted over to the left in a futile escape to get further away from Lucas, but he wasn’t having it.

“Yeah right- you’ve been avoiding me. Is it because of what happened on Saturday?” Tessa tried not to tense up, but Lucas still noticed and he frowned. Didn’t he understand she didn’t want to talk about it? She was still sifting through what had happened, and what she thought about it. Having that kind of experience was confusing for her.

“Tessa, I meant what I said. You know I meant it.” Huffing irritably, Tessa shook her head roughly. She didn’t want to have this conversation at all, least of all in a class room.

“Just drop it, okay Lucas? Seriously. How do I know what you meant? How do I know you didn’t say that to however many girls you did that to, and more?”

Chancing a glance at him, Tessa watched Lucas’s expression transform from a frown to anger and then determination. The metamorphosis didn’t bode well for her at all. Grabbing her hand, he yanked her out of her seat and down the small flight of stairs that stretched from the bottom of the room to the top of the benches. She would’ve protested, but she wanted to know what he had to say. She wanted to believe that there was a single ray of hope, no matter how bleak.

Outside the double doors that led to the room, Lucas tugged her a little ways down the hall before pausing to run his hand through his hair in agitation.

“Look, I don’t know what you listen to when you’re sitting quiet in your courses, but for fuck’s sake- I’ve only been with two women, and I was in relationships with both of them. Not at the same time, but you know what I mean. If I didn’t mean what I said to you, Tessa, I wouldn’t have said it at all. Why can’t you just believe me and stop being so damn stubborn? We go on break today and have a project to finish- you can’t avoid me forever if you want to pass.”

Blinking slowly, Tessa’s first thought was that she’d completely forgot about the break that happened in the middle of the semester so her professors could take their own teaching courses. Her second thought, though, was that the rumors going around about Lucas were totally false if he wasn’t lying. Eyeballing him suspiciously, Tessa knew he was right. If she wanted to get her mark on this presentation, she needed his help.

Slumping her shoulders a little in defeat, Tessa allowed Lucas to win just this once.

“Fine, but that doesn’t mean Saturday isn’t an issue.” Glaring a little, Tessa was kind of struck by how bright Lucas’s smile was, and he rubbed the back of her hand with his thumb before responding.

“That’s okay, Tessa. Anyway, I have a game tonight so we’ll have to do double tomorrow. Will you come?” Once again Tessa blinked harshly. She didn’t know the first thing about football, and was sure her face told it all because Lucas chuckled.

“I’ll give you a crash course right after school before practice, okay? It’s not as boring as it seems, trust me.”

Now, at half past 1pm, Tessa tried hard to focus and understand everything Lucas was saying. He explained why the ball hardly moved, and what positions were important. The team they were playing was from the next city over, and there was a heated rivalry between them.

Despite what Lucas had said, it was still boring and unappealing.

“Okay, I have to go get ready, so I’ll see you after the game.” Without another word Lucas jogged off towards the locker room, and Tessa watched him go. The bad boy image she’d cultivated around him was stripped completely, and he seemed like a really caring guy.

She hated the way her chest swelled, because not everyone got to see him that way.

An hour later the beginning ceremonies for the game were starting, even though Tessa couldn’t remember their official name. She sat on one of the lower bleacher seats, right behind the benches that held players that weren’t on the field. Of course, she’d been sitting there since she’d gotten out of class, but it wasn’t as uncomfortable as it seemed. However, it was very loud, and when the home team rushed out of the locker room it only got louder.
