bench and came towards me.
    I stopped laughing. ‘That’s not funny, Chis. You have to stop encouraging me.’ I leaned back to keep my composure.
    ‘ You can’t make me deny the truth.’ He lifted his left hand against the rack, blocking my exit. My pulse started to rise, and I wasn’t sure if I was afraid or turned on. I took a step to my right, towards the back corner, to get some breathing distance.
    ‘ So, are you and Andrew straying a lot, crashing student parties and such?’ I tried to disarm the atmosphere.
    He was about to respond when we heard a noise from the other side of the room. Someone was grabbing the knob and punching in some numbers on the outside. Christopher reacted fast, moving me to the corner were a cabinet hid us from view. He put one finger against my lips, and I had to restrain myself from kissing it. Not the best time to do that, I though. The sound of the music became louder as the door opened. We could hear steps moving towards the right wall, and sounds of bottles as they moved back. Christopher was leaning against me, covering me completely. I didn’t know why. If they saw him, they would stop and eventually see me too. But I didn’t mind it. I could feel his breath on my hair, and the sensation sent tingling messages to my body. I was soaking up the smell of him, mixed with leather and sweat. His lips trailed my forehead like the other day, and I was biting my lips again, desperate to taste him.
    When the door opened and closed again, I half expected him to move away. Instead, he looked down on my face. I lift my chin and his lips touches mine. First, they were gentle, searching. He took a step back and looked at my face, to see if it was ok. I missed his closeness, and pulled him towards me. I was beyond thinking if this was right or wrong. Then he kissed with a lot more force, pushing me to the wall and grabbing me from behind. My arms locked behind his neck, and my body pressed against him. I was flying again. My blood was rushing, my legs felt weak, and my heart was beating wild. Nobody else existed. I wanted him. He clearly wanted me. I could feel it against my hip despite the leather suit. His lips left my mouth to kiss my neck. I moaned as they reached below my ear. I pushed him harder to me, tugging his hair. His hands where moving up my back, taking my top with them. He had almost unveiled my breast, when he suddenly lets go of me, and steps away with a growl. Only then do I hear his phone ringing from the jacket left on the bench. As he goes to get it, I try to regain my balance and slow my heart. My breathing is ragged. 
    ‘ Yes?’ You could hear his irritation in a single word.
    I lower my shirt in place and tried to clear my head of what I had been about to do.
    ‘Where?’ Christopher asked into the phone. ‘No, not now!’ 
    He goes back to me, and places a hand around my hip while talking. I was still leaning against the wall, trying to compose myself.
    ‘ Ok, I’ll talk to you later. Hey wait, do you need the helmet?’ His eyes are locked with mine. ‘I’m sure you can stash the rest here, I think Jared has some clothes you can snatch. The staff’s room. Do you remember the code? Come alone, ok?’ 
    He put his phone on the bench and stepped away from me whispering ‘stay’, about the same time I heard someone outside the door. I could hear Andrews voice mixing with the music as the door opened.
    ‘ Wait here, I’m just going to change my clothes.’ I could hear a girls voice whining. ‘No, sweetie. It’s for staff only, see? I’ll be right back.’
    Then the door closes, and I c ould hear Christopher. ‘Andrew, you dog. How old is she?’
    ‘ Old enough! I heard Andrew laugh. ‘Where are you heading? And with who? Should I be worried?’
    ‘ Very.’
    They stopped talking for a minute, and I bet Christopher were gesturing something. I could hear Andrew unbuttoning his clothes. My legs didn’t hold me, and I slid down to a sitting position ,
