Chapter Five - You can let me know

Rebecca 

“Wanna head back to mine for a party? The night is still young,” Josh said. 

The club was closing soon, but we were all having too much fun to end the night right now. I was having too much fun teasing Jake. I wanted him badly. I was taking my time because there was a part of me that still felt bad about what already happened between us, but the drunker I get, and the more time I am around him, the more that feeling vanishes. 

“Hell yeah!” I said, “I am up for that,” I added. 

“Me too!” Jake said. 

It would seem everyone was up for it. We all piled out of the club, going to try and grab a couple of cabs. There were a lot of people waiting. It may be a while, hopefully not too long because it was freezing, and I have no jacket. I was trying my best not to shiver. 

“I see you still have the same bad habit,” Jake laughed, appearing in front of me, “You don’t bring a jacket when you are out,” He added, shaking his head. 

“It ruins the outfit,” I giggled, “I am a big girl, I can handle the cold,” I added. 

Anytime we all went out for a works night out, Jake was always getting on at me for nor bringing a jacket, in the end, he gave in because he realised, I was not going to listen to him. 

“I was going to offer to heat you up, but if you can handle the cold, I guess there is no need,” He said, smirking. 

I took a couple of steps, closing the space that was between our bodies. 

“And how did you plan on doing that?” I asked, looking up at him. 

He was a good few inches taller than me, so even in heels, I was still looking up at him. He placed his hand on my hip, holding me to him. I let out a soft moan feeling his body as close to mine. 

“I was going to keep you close, even offer you my jacket, but you don’t need it so,” He said, pulling away, heading back to his friends. 

I groaned in frustrated, glaring after him. Jake looked over his shoulder at me, smirking and laughing. I flipped him off and turned away from him so that he couldn’t see me laughing also. 

“The two of you are going to end up fucking before this night is over,” Paula giggled. 

“Part of me wants to, badly, but there is also a part of me that is trying to fight because no matter how much of a bitch Lauren is, she is still his girlfriend,” I said, “I am not the cheating kind,” I added, sighing. 

I think it would be very hypocritical of me if I did end up hooking up with Jake since my ex cheated on me and I hated him for it. And then what, I am going to do the same to someone else? 

“Then fuck the part that doesn’t want too,” Paula giggled, “It will maybe help with the tension between you both, plus the poor guy hasn’t got laid in so long,” She added. 

“I don’t know. I am in a battle with my head,” I said, “We will see how it goes,” I added. 

She nodded, leaving it at that. I was grateful for it because I didn’t want to talk about it. We headed over to stand with the guys. Jake moved into me. 

“Are you still cold?” He asked. 

I nodded and pouted at him. He stifled out a laugh and wrapped his arm around my shoulder, pulling me into him. I instantly felt warm from the heat radiating from his body. 

“Thank you,” I said, smiling widely at him. 

“Anytime,” He said, winking at me. 

I wanted to reach up and kiss him. I was craving his lips, but I decided not too because we were out in public and anyone could see us. He reached in, pushing the hair away from my face and smiling. 

We waited for ten minutes, which wasn’t too bad before we managed to grab two cabs. I was in the first one with Jake, Paula and Josh, the others in the second one. 

“I hope you have plenty of alcohol in the house, Josh,” Paula said. 

“I do, I have a bar in my house, and it is always stocked,” He said. 

“Awesome!” Paula said. 

I laughed, rolling my eyes. My best friend can drink like a damn fish. I do not know how she does it. Paula chatted away from the back seat to Josh and the driver in the front. I was sitting getting lost in my head once again. Jake soon pulled me out of thought when his hand landed on my thigh. I turned my attention to him, and he was looking at me. 

“Can I help you?” I asked, raising my brow at him. 

“Why you got to be this sexy and make things hard for me, Becca?” He said, his lip petted. 

“Me? You aren’t making this easy on me either, Mr,” I said, prodding his nose. 

I knew a lot of the way we are acting with each other is because we have been drinking, and then on top of that, all the sexual tension between us is making it harder to fight. Maybe Paula was right. Perhaps one night together would help all of this. No one needs to know, and it doesn’t have to happen again. A one-night kind of thing, and then maybe we can get back to normal. 

“So, what are we going to do about it?” He said, his hand creeping further up my thigh. 

I bit on my lip, swallowing hard and pressed my thighs together. Jake’s touch on my skin, turning me on. 

“I, I, I don’t know,” I breathed out, as his hand snaked between my closed thighs, caressing my inner thigh. 

Fuck! He was making me so damn horny right now! 

“You can let me know,” He said, moving his lips to my ear, “If your mind agrees with your body on what to do about it, let me know,” He added, grabbing my thigh. 

I moaned loudly, too loudly, which led to all eyes on. Jake laughed, pulling his hand away from me. I slumped down in the seat, knowing my face was bright red. I did not mean to moan that loudly, but I couldn’t help it. 

“When was the last time you got laid, by the sound of that, I would say it has been a while for you too,” Josh chuckled from the front seat. 

“Oh, shut up,” I laughed, glaring at him. 

“I was only asking,” He said, “The two of you should just go for it. I think you both need it,” He added. 

“Dude shut the fuck up,” Jake laughed, reaching over, and slapping him across the back of the head. 

What is with everyone wanting us to hook-up? I snickered, shaking my head. I wish this cab ride would hurry up and end because it was very hot in here suddenly. It was probably a mixture of me being turned on and embarrassed that is making me feel the heat. 

“Don’t worry, Becca, you aren’t the only one feeling it,” Jake whispered in my ear, “We will see how the night goes,” He added. 

I turned back to him and nodded. He kissed me; it was short and sweet, but still enough to get the excitement stir in me again. I think no matter how hard I try to fight this, by the end of this night, I will not be going to bed alone.
