Kolby pumped his arm as the ball rolled skillfully between the rapidly spinning goalie, Daisy’s jaw dropping. “How did it…? I totally had that!” she stammered.
“Mhm.” He agreed sarcastically, his confident gaze lingering on her playfully. “It was a really close game. Neck and neck for the whole thing. If I ever want a decent playing partner I would definitely choose you.”
She tucked her hair behind her ear out of a forced habit. “Can’t say that it was much skill on my part.”
“Oh, don’t let your opponents know that.” He let out a guffaw that shook his body. “To be honest, I’ve never played this before. It just looked like fun. Winning is all about psyching out your opponent. I guess we both got lucky in this match, some more than others.”
“And I bet you think that you psyched me out, huh?” Daisy rested her hand on her hip. “I think not. I would have had you beat if it wasn’t for that lucky shot at the last minute.”
“Uh-huh. Sure.” He smiled, his gaze falling upon the folded piece of paper that still rested on the edge of the Foosball table.
She followed his attention, becoming curious of what his spoils of winning this game was. “So, I guess we find out what you wrote on that piece of paper then.”
“Yeah,” Kolby walked along the table slowly. “Would you like to read it yourself or keep it a surprise?”
The way he worded that peaked her interest. Did she even want to look at what it was? Considering Kolby proved to be a very confident man, she could only assume a few things. But did she trust him that they followed the only rule she set out, it being appropriate? They were in a public place, so it shouldn’t be too bad… She just hoped it wasn’t something that would humiliate her.
“…I trust you.” She said weakly, her legs wobbling as he neared her, closer and closer until they were nearly touching.
His strong hands held against her sides, lifting her up off the floor as if she was weightless and setting her up on the corner of the game table gently. His hands loosened and rested just below where they were before, his palms nearly touching the fleshy sides of her breaths, exaggerated with each deep and slow breath she took, her eyes catching his in a dazed bewilderment.
Beneath the shadows of his brow she became entranced in the creamy dark chocolate eyes, becoming lost in his intentions as he searched hers. A consistent beating rang in her ears, each becoming faster and more deafening as he lingered before her, unmoving. Was it a kiss that he wanted?… And if it was, would she allow it?
All of the choices ran through her conscious as she thought of if she should or shouldn’t. She didn’t know him well enough to possibly be so reckless in her actions, but his flirty, unwavering facade made her weak in the knees whenever he looked at her in that way. And now that he couldn’t look away turned her bones into jelly, shaking from his touch.
“Do you really trust me?” He echoed her answer back at her as some kind of test. Maybe it was in some way meant to make her think deep and really answer truthfully, but in her mind there was only one response.
“I do.”
A playful smile lurked on his face as he neared her. “You are something else, Daisy.”
She raised her hands towards his shoulders, her fingers kneading softly into his skin, his muscles tensing underneath. At this point every sane part of her mind was shutting off. That part of her that would have shut this kind of behavior down was being drowned out by the screaming desire to feel wanted, kissed… touched, even. Just imagining how close he really was, his legs in-between hers, standing so close that she could feel him against her inner thighs. His breath brushed against her face, her mind swimming within itself, intoxicated by the way he made her feel.
“Is this okay?” Kolby’s hands wandered slowly along the length of her sides, resting on the roundness of her hips, his lips close enough to almost brush against hers. Her skin crawling every place he had touched.
“Yes,” her lips played back, playfully teasing his.
“And this?” His touch fell lower, each cupping her bottom, his fingers feeling around its softness until her breath left her empty, only wanting to be filled again.
Her back arched as she reached towards him, her lips pressing against his, both still for a moment before parting to take a breath and folding into the others, kneading and nibbling at the other, each kiss hungrier for the next, wanting more of the other, their tongues and desire going deeper to satisfy their gluttonous wants.
Daisy, bothered for wanting more, pressed her breasts against him, her fingers grasping at his cotton sweater that wrapped around them, bringing him closer. Her body ached to be closer to his in every way possible… even if that meant that they take this elsewhere.
Breathless, Kolby leaned back, his teeth pulling gently on her bottom lip, her quick breaths warm against his face, eager to kiss him again. “Wait.”
“What?” She begged, her lips pressing against his that were pressed in a stern line acros his face.
He rested his forehead against hers, taking in the others sighs, their adrenaline racing. “As much as we probably want to keep going… I think it would be best… To not go any further.”
“No?” Her voice whining for the attention, her hand playing down the length of his muscular arms.
“Besides,” He smiled devilishly, her heart aflutter. “You still owe me.”
“Huh?” Daisy’s face twisted, confused.
Kolby reached beside them and within his fingers, skillfully opened the ripped receipt, exposing his chicken scratch. “A date.”
She shook her head, her lips inclined into a gentle laugh. “So it wasn’t the kiss then?”
He raised his eyebrows and shifted his weight, “No… But I know we could both agree that we wanted to.” Kolby lifted her down from the table and set her beside him, her arms wrapping around him and nestling her head on his chest.
“I guess so.”
