Playing Up (7 page)

She slowly straightened, avoiding his eyes.
If she hadn’t aroused him, she’d aroused herself. She headed for
the Ladies’, intent on tidying her make-up and using the loo before
catching the train for the trip back to her flat.

Leaning over the mirror, she noted the flush
in her cheeks, excitement glittering in her eyes. Just seeing Rob
and remembering what they had shared was enough to do that. She
rinsed her hands under the cool water, quelling the impulse to hide
in there all night.

Time to go. Sian girded her loins and opened
the door, seeing the exit clear for her escape. A few steps and she
would be-

A brawny arm circled her waist and she was
pulled into a corner. She clutched at Rob’s biceps and squeaked in
shock.

‘What the fuck made you think I didn’t want
you? What do you think this is?’ Rob pulled her hips into his,
forcing her against his bulging jeans. ‘I’ve only just come, then
you whisper that litany of sex in my ear and I’m ready like a
schoolboy again.’

Sian couldn’t stop herself rubbing against
him, the ache increasing. She sucked in her breath with a gasp,
trying to focus on why this was such a bad idea but Rob’s
continuing torment was reminding her body of how good he felt.

‘Well?’ Rob was breathing heavily too. ‘Look,
I’m sorry I was so rude to you, I really didn’t mean for you to
take offence. I like you.'

‘I thought you were embarrassed to be seen
with me?’

‘I thought you wanted things to be kept
quiet?’

Another push of his hips and she gasped, ‘I
don’t fucking care, just don’t stop!’

The bellowing voice of the landlord rang out,
‘Oi! You two, keep it family friendly or take it home!’

Half the bar, including the Harford boys,
turned around to look for whoever was misbehaving.

‘Aye up boys, we’ve found the mystery
woman.’

‘What’s up with that? They look good
together. Can I watch this time?’ Damian grinned expectantly.

Sian hid her face in his neck with
embarrassment.

Rob whispered mischievously in her ear,
‘Remember biting me there? As you sat across my cock, my
hands-¬’

‘Shut the fuck up before I come on the spot,’
growled Sian back.

‘I was serious, you know I’ve been ready for
you all day, I’d only just calmed myself down shortly before you
whispered in my ear and I was off again like a teenager. You don’t
play fair.’ He punctuated that with another press of his hips into
her, and a surreptitious squeeze of a breast.

‘Neither do you!’ she gasped.

‘Well, you’ll just have to wait.’ His hands
moved to gently cup her face and he stared into her eyes, smiling
lightly but seriously. ‘We need to have a proper chat, get to know
each other before we jump into bed again.

Sian nodded in agreement as her arousal
calmed to a simmer.

He lightly kissed her, ‘Let’s say a few words
before we head off. Ready?’

She nodded and he took her hand and led her
over to his friends as her confidence spiked. He wanted her by his
side! He wasn’t embarrassed to be seen with her! She felt like a
freeing weight had been lifted from her shoulders.

‘So much for your advice, Gav.’

‘It worked, didn’t it?’ Gavin grinned at them
both. ‘Kill or cure, I was hoping she’d have a bit of a tiger in
her.’

Rob scowled, ‘You twat.’

Bravery had obviously been an additive to
Gavin’s beer, ‘Before I forget to say, nice tits honey.’

‘Glad you liked them, you’re not seeing them
again. I’ll rip your balls off if you dare.’ Sian glanced at his
crotch as Gavin winced.

Damian overheard that, ‘Ooh, feisty. I like
‘em hot. Fancy a threesome, Rob?’

‘Damian, I have one thing to say to you.’
Sian crooked a finger.

Damian grinned as he leant in towards her,
his eyes dropping down to her cleavage, ‘Yes, sexy babe.’

Sian rolled her eyes, ‘A small matter you can
help me with.’

‘Anything for you, gorgeous. I have plenty to
spare, and not so small at that.’

‘Oh, just...do...fuck...off.’ She smiled
angelically at him.

He blushed as all the rest of the boys
guffawed at his embarrassment.

Rob chuckled and kissed her lightly, ‘I think
that’s said it. Let’s be off.’

She waved happily to her friends as they
exited the bar, hand-in-hand.

‘Want to go for that meal I never treated you
to?’

Sian couldn’t hide her surprise, ‘I thought
we’d be heading back to either of our places?’

‘I meant it about slowing things down. Let’s
have a go at it. A few proper dates, maybe some that don’t end or
even start in bed. See if we get on as well as I think we
will.’

‘Great plan, agreed.’ She beamed.

‘As long as we shag often enough that you
wear me out, I’ve been climbing the walls since I saw you last.
Been rock hard most of the time with the need to be inside
you.’

Sian gasped, and pinkened with arousal.
‘Rob!’

He held open a restaurant door for her,
‘Tapas, talking and teasing for the next hour. See if I can get you
as hot for me as I’ve been for you.’

‘Hmmm, I’m already there so that shouldn’t be
difficult,’ Sian promised, whispering. She glanced down as they
were led to a secluded table, ‘There’s one more thing I need you to
tell me though.’

‘What might that be?’

‘Is that stuff on your shoes what I think it
is?’

About the Author

Toria Lyons is
originally from mid Wales but now lives in south-west London. Until
a few years ago, she was a civil servant but health problems forced
her to give up desk-based work. That's where writing came in – she
was always a keen rugby supporter and felt there was many a tale to
tell based on a local rugby club.

When not at the rugby or dreaming up another plot,
she’s a keen road cyclist and can be found pedalling around the
Surrey Hills. She'll often go for a ride and pop in to see a match
on her way home, if she has enough layers to keep her warm!

Her other loves include red wine, curry and good dark
chocolate.
