“Breakfast will be ready soon,” Anna stated factually, stepping out of the tent into the morning sunlight. “We should probably wash up first. I can’t show up looking like I spend the night doing... Whatever we did.” Her eyes darted toward the lake where other campers were likely already gathering for breakfast. The thought of facing everyone made her stomach twist with anxiety. “I am sure it is no big deal. Everyone was drinking last night. I am sure there are more than a few campers who got lu

  • Tenderness is a Dangerous Thing   Math Assignment

    Zack’s footsteps are heavier than necessary as they ascend, leaving Chloe’s flirtatious smile and Haley’s territorial glare behind them. Once inside Anna’s bedroom with the door shut securely behind them, Zack backs her up against the wall. “Fucking hell,” he mutters. His hands frame her face, his thumbs brushing roughly along her cheekbones as he stares down at her with intense frustration. “Your sister and her friends are literally making out on the couch while your dad is probably in the kitchen making dinner like nothing is wrong.” His voice is a low growl, filled with a mix of anger and possessiveness. “And that Chloe was checking me out like she wanted to replace you. I don’t like it, Anna.” He presses his forehead against hers, his breathing uneven. “And now I have to sit in here and pretend to give a shit about calculus when all I can think about is bending you over that desk and fucking you until you scream my name so loud everyone downstairs knows who you belong to.” His h

  • Tenderness is a Dangerous Thing   Study Session

    Once parked in front of Anna’s house, Zack kills the engine and helps her off the bike. “My sister, Haley, is having a friend over to study too. And my dad is probably already busy with dinner, so behave,” Anna says with a soft smile. Zack’s expression falls slightly at the mention of Anna’s family being home, his playful demeanour shifting to something more cautious. “Your dad? Shit, I haven’t talked to him since that time I accidentally dented his car with a baseball bat.” He runs a hand through this hair nervously, glancing toward the front door of her house. “And you sister’s friend? Does she know about us? Because I am not great at acting natural when I am thinking about getting you naked.” Despite his complaints, there is a protective edge to his tone as he walks Anna up the porch steps. “Yeah, I think she knows,” Anna says casually. His hand finds hers automatically, lacing their fingers together tightly. “Okay, rule number one: no touching unless we are alone. Rule number tw

  • Tenderness is a Dangerous Thing   Haltek

    “Anyway,” Evan says quickly, trying to change the subject. “I am going to Haltek. My parents already decided, and I got a football scholarship. Maybe you guys should join me. I will need someone to make sure I don’t turn into a boring, typical football player. Or return to my playboy asshole ways...” Zack’s expression shifts from casual to genuinely interested, his grip on Anna’s hip tightening slightly. “Haltek? Holy shit, man, you actually pulled off that scholarship?” He leans forward, elbows on the table as he studies Evan with newfound respect. “Football scholarship to Haltek- that is impressive even for you.” Turning to Anna with excitement sparkling in his eyes, he asks, “Would you even consider applying there? It is one of the toughest engineering schools in the country.” Anna considers his words and nod lightly. The idea of all three of them ending up at the same university clearly appeals to him- not just as friends but as a united front against whatever challenges college l

  • Tenderness is a Dangerous Thing   Three Unlikely Friends

    After history class, Zack had mathematics then it was lunch time. Zack walked into the cafeteria and sits at this usual spot. Evan was already in the cafeteria, flirting with one of the blond cheerleaders, Sarah. After making plans for after school, Evan joins Zack and sits beside him. “Hey, man,” Evan says casually. Zack barely acknowledges Evan’s greeting, his mind still preoccupied with thoughts of Anna. He stabs at his lunch tray half-heartedly, the food tasting like cardboard compared to the memory of her skin against his. “Yoh, are you okay? You look like you’ve seen a ghost,” Evan jokes nudging his shoulder. Evan leans back in his chair, smirking as he watches Sarah Walk by their table. “Man, I am telling you, Sarah from the cheer squad is totally into me. She was practically begging for me to walk her home after practice.” Zack rolls his eyes without looking up from his plate. “Great. Another girl you are going to ignore after you get what you want from her.” His tone comes ou

  • Tenderness is a Dangerous Thing   Worthy

    “You, okay?” Zack asks softly. “Yeah, that... Was something else. More than amazing,” Anna replies, her voice hoarse from use. Zack’s chest swells with pride at her words, a genuine smile spreading across his face. “Amazing is the only word I can think of too,” he admits, pulling her into a gentle hug against his still-naked chest. His hands run soothingly up and down her back as he holds her close, pressing kisses to the top of her head. “I have never felt anything like that before. Being with you... It is different.” He pulls back slightly to look into her eyes, his expression serious and vulnerable. “I mean it, Anna. What we just did- that was not just fucking. That was... Everything.” His thumbs brush away a few stray tears from Anna cheeks that she did not realize had fallen. “Are you really okay? No regrets about telling me you love me?” he asks softly. Anna shook her head. “Not at all. Ever since... Ever since this all started, I have seen so many different sides of you. Not ju

  • Tenderness is a Dangerous Thing   Consumed

    “I love you, Zack. I love it when you get all possessive and obsessive. Maybe I was made for you. Maybe this is like fate or something,” Anna struggled to say between gasps, moans and deep breaths. Zack’s movements falter for a moment, his eyes widening in surprise at her confession. The words hang in the air between them, charged with emotion and vulnerability. “Fuck,” he breathes out shakily, his thrusts becoming slower and more deliberate. “Don’t say things like that when I am this deep inside you. It makes it hard to think straight.” His hands frame his face gently, thumbs brushing away sweat-dampened strands of her hair from her cheeks. The rough intensity in his eyes softens into something rawer and more exposed. “I love you too, I have been in love with you since we were kids, even when I was being a complete asshole about it,” he admits finally, the words coming out rough but sincere. He leaned down to kiss her softly this time- no longer just hungry or possessive but filled w
