surrounding me. And I'm so hungry for it. In reaction, I open my water and swig a long mouthful, washing down my mint by mistake.
Haydn sniggers at me, for no reason that I can think of other than to be nasty somehow.
Jack just stares at me. His green eyes unnerve and worry me.
I fancy him like mad. He's my 'if only', my big crush. He's not your typical handsome hunk. He's kinda too lean to be a hunk. But he's real handsome all right. His eyes and thick lashes get me, right there, in the lower gut. And his short, neatly-cropped, chestnut hair and sulky lips turn me on even more.
I'm overreacting, breathing hard. Getting very uncomfortable in his presence.
“How's the weirdo anyway?” Haydn asks.
“Weirder than ever,” I reply, honestly. “Don't challenge me to a weirdness contest.”
Cody snorts in amusement, his eyes twinkling brightly. He seems to love my conversation. Whatever I say.
“How's your dad, still running the pack?” Jack asks. He used to be in my dad's scouts pack, years ago.
“He's fine. Still scouting for new talent,” I joke.
“That's cool. Tell him I said hello.” Jack cocks his head and smiles at me. It's just a tiny grin, and a flash of lovely teeth, but it sets me off. My heart's almost pumping out of my chest.
He takes a swig of his bottle of OJ and stands up, swinging it between his fingers and hoisting his backpack over his shoulder.
“Better be going hadn't we, Candy? It's early start today.” He waits for me to rise and follow. And of course, like a moth to a flame, I do.
I thank Cody for the drink and trot off next to him, alongside his heavenly mixture of manly smell, and wildly erotic bloody undertones.
He's in my English and Latin classes, unfortunately. He's another thing I need a distraction for.
Jack Rowland lust. Thank God he doesn't sit with me. I'd have sucked him dry by now.
I laugh at myself. Those words sound so bad in my head.
“That was a dirty laugh,” he says with a perfect little twitch of his mouth.
“What would an innocent like you know about dirty laughs,” I tease.
“More than you might think. Wanna let me in on it?”
“Oh no. Then I'd have to kill you.”
He chuckles sexily. The sound trickles down from my ears to my toes.
“Talking of dirty laughs. Yours is double X rated.”
“Wanna know something? You're not only gorgeous, and weird, you're kinda funny as well. You're fucking lethal, girl.”
He wanders off to his chair and sits down, giving me a heavy dose of sexy eye.
He could be right there. Maybe I am lethal. But not in the way he meant.

About the Author
I'm a loveaholic, but not only that, I like intrigue and drama. My reading interests are spread across several genres. Romance, Paranormal, Sci fi, Fantasy, Horror and Erotica.
I read constantly, developing my craft and pushing myself to improve and to be a better writer. I love to create real people. People you may find in everyday life. But these people have secrets, hidden depths, torture, and a wealth of other hidden characteristics to their personality and in their lives. I love to create steamy passion, a heated encounter that will make you wish it were you. :) And I love to weave a spell, to captivate and entrance you with my words. To take you to another place in your life, where you can escape for a few hours with me.
