Just Sex (7 page)

“If that’s where you’ll be.”

Warmth seeped to her toes.
If you’re not careful, you’ll fall in love with him.
She turned on the water and washed her hands. Kat knew she needed to take control. She had let people control her for too long. “I’ll tell Patricia to look for you.” Kat dried her hands and adjusted the phone. “Don’t say I didn’t warn you. I’ve sat through three months of acting classes. I can tell you that no Oscars will be won tonight.”

“Great, I’ll see you then.”

* * * * *

J.J. walked into the school building, spotted Kat and stumbled.
Fuck me. She’s gorgeous.
Her black wrap blouse with hot pink trim highlighted her tits fabulously. Black jeans hugged all the right curves. Her sexy hot pink heels made his blood pressure rise. He smoothed his shirt and walked over to Ron and Patricia. “Hey.”

“Oh J.J.” Excitement gushed from Patricia. “I’m so happy you’re here.”

He sat and left an empty chair for Kat next to him.

Ron leaned over. “She is quite a sight, isn’t she?”

J.J. would examine the shock of jealousy he’d just experienced later. “She’s perfect.”

He heard Kat yell over the crowd. “Excuse me, will the parents of Jimmie Burnett please come backstage?”

A tall blonde stood and walked backstage, and a few minutes later, Kat found her seat and the lights dimmed. J.J. put his arm on the back of her chair. The hair on his arm stood up and his body tingled.

For days, he’d wanted to see and touch Kat. Now he had the chance and he was in the high school gym. The same place he kissed Molly Carpenter in the corner at his freshman semi-formal. Maybe he could get Kat in the corner and put that starry look in her eyes. Or better yet, he could see if Coach Jones still didn’t lock his door and he could do what he did with Amanda Swift. He shook his head.
No, with Kat, I’ll take my time. Our first time will be in a soft bed, not on a dirty gym office floor.

Before J.J. knew it, the play was over. While he watched, Sam delivered his lines. He moved his arm around Kat’s shoulder and toyed with her hair. As he played with the fine strands, more and more electricity arced between them.

Kat rose, smoothed her blouse and turned. “I have to get backstage and start cleaning up.” She hugged Patricia. “I’ll be home in about two hours. Are you sure you don’t mind watching Sam?”

“Absolutely, we’ll spoil Sam with ice cream and get him ready for bed.”

She hugged Ron goodbye.

J.J. yanked Kat into a hug. “You look great.”

She blushed, pulled away and a curl sprang loose over her forehead. “Thank you.” She glanced around.

Is she ashamed of me?
He stepped back. “Sorry.”

Kat’s ocean colored eyes softened. “I don’t want you to be the topic of gossip.”

His hands itched to push the stray lock back behind her ear. He shoved his palms into his pockets. “Can I help you clean up?”

“We could always use an extra hand.”

A woman wearing a tiny tank top and tight jeans walked to them. “Who’s your friend, Kat?” Her New Jersey accent grated on his nerves.

Kat straightened and put her hands on her hips, “This is, um, my friend, J.J. Adams,” she stammered. “J.J., this is Melissa Green.”

Melissa grabbed his hand. “Oh you’re the landscape guy. I’ve heard so much about you. It seems like everyone I know uses you.”

He eyed Kat. Her narrow-eyed stare and red cheeks had J.J. biting back a smile. “I hope you’ve heard good things.” He released Melissa’s palm.

“Oh yes. I need your card. I’m looking for a new lawn company.”

J.J. pulled out his wallet, handed her a card and pasted on his most professional smile. “Nice to meet you, Melissa, but if you would excuse me, I need to help Kat clean up.”

Melissa stuck it in her overstuffed bra and winked. “I’ll give you a call.”

He watched Kat give the woman a dirty look as she sashayed away. His chest squeezed and he chuckled to himself and strolled over to Kat. “Are you upset about something?”

“No.” She started to stomp away.

He grabbed her arm and dragged her to a janitor’s closet. He’d never kissed a girl, or done anything else for that matter, in the janitor’s closet. It was always locked.

“Hey, what are you doing?”

Anticipation skittered up his spine. “Shh, people might talk.” He crushed Kat against the concrete wall and kissed her.

Need penetrated him. He felt her go under.

She nipped at his bottom lip.

He took the kiss deeper. His cock stiffened and pressed against her belly and a moan flowed from her.

J.J. untied her blouse and buried his head in Kat’s breasts. Her soft mounds brushed against his cheeks. J.J. kissed and sucked the flesh that bubbled over the top of her bra. If J.J. could taste ecstasy, Kat would be the main course. “God yes.”

Kat spun him. J.J.’s back hit the concrete wall. “Kat.”

She knelt, unbuttoned and unzipped his chinos. “I have to taste you.”

“Fuck yes.” His hot cock strained against his underwear and he fell to her mercy.

She pulled the boxer briefs down and his dick hit her cheek. J.J. could have exploded right then and there.

“You’re so big.” Kat moistened her lips and kissed his tip.

The cold feel of the concrete seeped into his back and he groaned.

Passion set him on fire when she licked his shaft. He grabbed her hair. “Fuck, you’re hot. I’ve thought about this for weeks. Please don’t stop.”

Kat took the tip of him into her mouth and shoved her head down his shaft. His cock hit the back of her throat. It took everything he had not to grab Kat’s head and fuck her mouth.

She swallowed.

“Kat.” His balls drew up tight. Every ounce of his control wanted to snap. “Do that again.”

Kat swallowed again.

“Fuck! No one has ever made me feel like this.” He pulled his throbbing cock out of her mouth and looked down at her. “If you keep doing that, I’m going to come.”

A wicked expression crossed her beautiful face and had pre-cum beading on the tip of his cock. Kat’s tongue darted out and licked it from him. “Holy shit.” That was the most erotic thing he had ever seen. J.J.’s head thudded against the wall. She cupped his sac and tugged.

The incredible sensation made his balls ache. “Fuck, Kat. I’m going to come!”

Fluid shot down the back of her throat. “Fuck.” He had never lost control like that before. “Sorry.” When his head stopped spinning, he helped Kat to her feet and took her mouth.

He tasted himself on her. Love for Kat almost brought him to his knees.
J.J. yanked her to his chest and let Kat’s heat warm his soul. “You’re amazing.”

Kat pushed against him and stepped back, seeming to radiate pleasure. She tied her blouse and straightened herself. “Well, that was fun.” Kat opened the door and walked out.

J.J. stood in the dark with his pants around his ankles. His cock hung sated. “What the fuck just happened?” He wanted to work Kat into a frenzy and feel her hot cunt around his dick.

He yanked up his pants, tucked his cock back into his underwear and opened the door. His hip vibrated and he reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone. J.J.’s gaze darted around the empty space. “Hello.”

“Hi,” Kat said, that one word full of confidence.

“Where are you?” He scanned the large space again.

“I’m driving home. I’m done with you.” She chuckled and hung up.

“Well, I’m not done with you.” J.J. looked at his phone and grinned. He adjusted his manhood and strutted to his truck. “Oh how sweet and delectable the revenge is going to be.”

Chapter Seven

Kat walked into her house after dropping Sam off at school. She had been floating on cloud nine ever since her interlude with J.J. in the janitor’s closet last week. Even though she hadn’t seen him, she’d talked to J.J. every day. It amazed her how much they had to talk about. It was as if they were lifelong friends.

Not only did J.J. turn her on in ways she had never experienced before, he stimulated her mind. At times it scared her senseless. The only other person she had so much in common with was Patricia and Kat had known her almost her whole life.

The scent of fresh paint and cut wood permeated the air and filled her soul with peace. Kat took in the lovely shades of yellow on the walls and the rich hardwood floors and hoped all the changes she’d made would allow her to put Gary behind her. She strolled through the house that once felt like a prison and pictured where she would place her grandmother’s antiques.

It had taken her weeks to arrange for the delivery of the priceless items. Kat would reap the benefits of all her hard work when the antiques arrived in a few short hours. Her throat clogged with emotions she had held onto for years.

Kat strolled into the backyard and studied her pool. She’d promised Patricia that she would start living again. Kat took one last glance around the yard and checked her watch. “Oh what the hell.” She stripped off her yoga pants and T-shirt and jumped in.

Cool water washed over her. She glided across the bottom of the pool and her mind emptied. The water always made her feel free. She kicked her way to the surface and filled her lungs with fresh air. For this moment, Kat didn’t have any responsibilities.

No struggling family business to deal with. She didn’t need to think about a son who woke up in the middle of the night, crying over the loss of his father. She didn’t have to agonize over the size of her ass.

A splash from behind Kat made her heart skip a beat. For an instant all her worries flowed back in her mind, but the strong arms that wrapped around her waist had her anxiety disappearing, and the now familiar need lapped up her spine and spread throughout her body.

J.J. nipped at her ear. “Hi.”

“You almost gave me a heart attack.” She wiggled into his solid chest. Today, being with him like this felt right. “What are you doing here?”

“I’m here to do your yard, but I saw you and decided I needed to cool off first.”

Lust washed over her. “It’s not Tuesday.”

“After the janitor’s closet, I figured I needed to keep you on your toes.” He pressed his lips to her forehead. “Besides, I wanted to see you before you left.”

Kat wiggled around in his arms and kissed him full on the lips. She hoped they could have a redo with a mutually satisfying ending in her almost empty, newly painted house. “I thought you had a full day today.”

His cock hardened and throbbed against her belly. “I did, but I did some rescheduling.”

The feel of his hands moving up her back set her on fire. She smiled at him. “How did you know I would be home?”

He adjusted her so she fit tighter against his chest. “I know that after you drop Sam at school, you take an hour for yourself.”

Kat held on and wrapped her legs around him. It occurred to Kat how the state of her home was perilously close to her state of mind. “You are starting to know me too well.”

“I want to get to know you better.”

Kat couldn’t keep the unease from settling over her good mood. She didn’t want to care about him so much. Their relationship was supposed to be about sex and getting herself back.

J.J.’s arms flexed, making Kat’s whole body tremble. His lips kissed her ear. “What’s the matter?”

Kat shook her head and clung onto him. Too many thoughts collided with emotions to form words.

“Baby, tell me what’s wrong.”

“I’m sorry, you must think I’m a fool.” She leaned back and gazed into his smoky gray eyes.

He stroked Kat’s hair back from her face. “I think you’re beautiful.”

She wiped the moisture from her eyes. “I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I came home from dropping Sam off at the bus stop.” She unwrapped her legs. “The house was finally quiet and empty. I think it was just too much.”

“What was too much?” J.J. grabbed her thighs and wrapped them back around him.

Kat rested her core against his hardness. She wanted to tell him he was too much, but it wasn’t really true. So she said, “I finally have a home I love. I’ve lived in this house for over eleven years and hated it.”

She rested her head on his shoulder. “I feel free.” Kat inhaled his scent. “I shouldn’t feel free.” She lifted her head and studied him. “But I do. Does that make me a bad person?”

“You are in charge of your happiness now.” J.J. pressed his lips to the tip of her nose. “I wish you all the happiness in the world.”

Her chest constricted. She kissed him. “Come inside.”

He took a step.

Air chilled Kat’s exposed skin and didn’t ease the delectable ache in her breasts. “Hey, put me down.” She wiggled and unfolded her arms from his neck, her body slid along his chest, sending her hormones into overdrive.

Kat folded her arms over her puckered nipples and hurried out of the pool. J.J. walked over, picked up his discarded clothing and followed her to the glass doors. She stepped inside the bedroom and scurried to the adjoining bathroom to retrieve some towels. She handed one to J.J. and dried herself.

“I want to show you something.” He took her by the hand and led her to the bed.

“What?”

“Just lie down. You’ll see.”

When she crawled under the covers, the cool sheets stuck to her damp skin and did nothing to calm her lust. She tamped down her nervousness, sucked in her stomach and placed her arms to her sides. She hoped her arm placement would keep her breasts from falling into her armpits.

J.J. jerked on his boxer briefs, stretched out next to her and kissed her softly. Kat’s body vibrated against his. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him close. Pleasure pooled and filled her pussy.

He reached around and interlaced his fingers with hers. “Put your arms over your head and hold onto the headboard.” He lifted her hands and wrapped her palms around the wrought iron headboard. “Don’t move.”

Restlessness pulled at her core. “Why?”

“Don’t worry. I’m not going to do anything you don’t want me to.”

That wasn’t the problem. She wanted him to do everything.

He ran his calloused hands over Kat’s body. “That feels wonderful,” she moaned.

The knot in her core pulled tighter as J.J. kissed Kat’s forehead, her eyelids, her cheeks, her nose and her chin. She gripped the headboard tight. He finally kissed her mouth, gentle at first, and then took the kiss deeper and harder.

The need to have him inside her body had Kat thrusting her hips into his. Her pussy tensed with every brush of his cotton-covered dick.

She ground herself into his hard cock. He worked his mouth down to her left breast and sucked her nipple into his hot mouth. Her brain clouded. She rocked her hips against him harder. “I want you inside me.”

Tugs of electricity shot through her. J.J. kissed her navel and moved down to her pussy. She gasped and arched up to his mouth. He licked her clit. Kat couldn’t remember the last time she felt this good. Every one of her heartbeats pulsed in that little pearl. She started to shiver. He tongued her entrance. “Oh my God.” Her excitement, along with his saliva, ran down Kat’s pussy and nestled in between her butt cheeks.

“I’m going to come.” She grabbed his head and pressed herself against his hot mouth. J.J. stopped. Kat lifted his head up to her mouth, smiled and kissed him hard. She loved how she tasted on his lips.

“Your hands are not where I told you to put them.”

“Sorry.” She moved her hands back to the headboard.

“That’s a good girl.” He licked his way back down to her core and devoured her wet pussy.

Kat thrashed uncontrollably. He held her hips and feasted on her pussy unmercifully. J.J. was relentless, firm, direct and oh so perfect.

A wave of pleasure rolled over her, making her body quake. She was beyond the point of no return. “Oh fuck, J.J.” Hot fluid flowed from her. “Please! I’ll die without you inside me! Please?”

J.J. licked his way back up to her lips and kissed her softly.

“I need to feel you inside me.” She didn’t care that she’d begged. The baser instincts that Kat had suppressed for over a decade took over her mind.

He grinned and wrapped his arms around her. “No.”

Her hot body shuddered. “What, you’re just going to hold me?” she teased and rotated her hips. Kat’s heart stuttered. Her pussy felt empty and unsatisfied. “Inside me, now.”

He smiled. “It’s not the right time. I don’t have a condom.”

Disappointment settled over her and she stilled. Kat made a mental note to buy condoms ASAP. “What, you don’t have one in your wallet?”

“I do,” he kissed her temple.

Unease started to move in on her orgasm haze. “Go get it.” Maybe she did need to worry more about the size of her butt. Kat couldn’t help the negative thoughts that swam in her brain. She tugged on the covers.

He stopped the progression of the sheet. “This was a happy payback for the other day.” He ran his calloused palm up Kat’s leg. “I can’t wait to make love to you. I have never wanted anything so much.”

Her heart opened wide for him and he climbed right in. “Let me give you head.” She started to move down his body.

“No, you don’t.” J.J. grabbed Kat and yanked. He wanted to slip into her sweet wetness and make Kat his. He had never eaten a woman who tasted so good.

He thought he would come when her sweet honey sprayed over his face. His cock jerked against Kat’s thigh and he rubbed himself against her soft skin. Everything about her was perfect.

“J.J.?”

“Mmm?” he managed to grunt.

“Don’t you have clients today?”

“Are you kicking me out of your bed?”

“I don’t want to be responsible for your business going belly up.”

He glanced at the clock on the bedside table. “I do need to get outside.” He snuggled her closer to his side. “I have a consultation in two hours and I would like to stop at home and take a quick shower before I meet the new clients.”

“I’ll get dressed and help.”

He shot out of bed. Like hell he would take her money and not earn it. “You pay me to do your lawn.”

Kat gave him a sexy smile. “Who do you think did all the outside work before you?”

“You did, and I still don’t think it was right for you to do all that work.” He tugged on his work pants.

“But it’s okay for you to do it?”

“I have people to help me and you pay me to take care of your yard.”

She watched him zip and button his pants and wrung her hands.

J.J. knew she did that when she was nervous. He wanted to take the line of concern from her forehead. “I’ll call some of my men to come by later to take care of it.”

The line deepened. “Are you sure?”

He wrapped her in a hug. “Yes,” he pressed a kiss to her forehead. “Please don’t look at me that way.”

She leaned back. “What way?”

“I can’t explain the look on your face when you get upset.” He forced himself to let her go. “All I know is I don’t like it.”

Kat made her way to the closet. She slid a cotton nightgown over her head.

His phone buzzed. J.J. reached into his pocket to read the text. “Shit, I have to go.”

“Is everything all right?”

“Yeah, a lawn mower broke down. I need to take a look at it.” He walked to her and pulled Kat into a mind-blowing kiss. “Can I come by tonight after Sam’s asleep?”

“He won’t be asleep until late. We have to pack for Maine.”

Shit.
The reminder of not seeing her over Thanksgiving crushed his good mood. “I’m trying to forget the fact that you are leaving.”

“It’s only for a week.” She pressed her soft lips to his.

J.J. grabbed Kat, lifted her off her feet and stepped to the bed. His cell signaled again. “Shit.” He placed her down. “I have to go.”

She sent him a sexy smile that just set his groin on fire. “Go.”

For the first time since he opened Elite Lawns, he hated his job. J.J. sent a text to his foreman to let him know he was on his way and took one last look at Kat. “Have a good time.”

He heard her snort as he left the room. “You don’t know my mother.”

* * * * *

Exhaustion washed over Kat. She’d spent the whole day after J.J. left her, all hot and bothered, setting up her home. It now looked like the comfortable showplace she always wanted. She placed a sweater in her suitcase and zipped it.

Kat wanted to call J.J. just to hear his voice, but she didn’t want to seem desperate. Her core still tingled from the mind-blowing orgasm he gave her. J.J. opened something inside her. “Is this what dating is like in the new millennium?” They had yet to go out, which was for the best.
