the star of her dreams.
    “A man comes in, but he doesn’t speak. Instead he kneels in
front of me and pushes my legs apart. For some reason, I’m never wearing
panties and I’m always in a skirt. Neither of these two things is ever true but
that’s how I’m dressed in the dream.”
    “I think you should go to work tomorrow in that short skirt
you bought today. And you should definitely leave off the panties.”
    She grinned and then closed her eyes. Casey knew she was
seeing what came next.
    “He bends forward and puts his lips on me.”
    “Where?”
    She shook her head.
    “Tell me where he puts his mouth, Jordan.”
    “My, um, my—”
    “Pussy?” he whispered.
    Her cheeks flushed the most delicious red. Casey wondered if
he could produce that beautiful color on other parts of her body as well.
    She nodded.
    “Say it, Jordan. Say the word.”
    “Pussy,” she whispered, the word so quiet it was lost in the
din of the large food court.
    They were in the middle of a mall, surrounded by people, but
Casey didn’t give a shit. This was the hottest conversation he’d ever had in
his life. “Then what does he do?”
    “He kisses me, licks me. I’m so hot. I beg him for more, so
he pushes his fingers inside me.”
    “How many fingers?”
    “Two. At first. Then three. It’s a tight fit and he
stretches me, but it feels so good.”
    Casey clenched his free hand into a fist. What would he give
to touch her that way?
    “I beg him to take me. With more than just his fingers.”
    “You want his cock?”
    She nodded. He wanted to hear her say it, but he wouldn’t
press her. Yet. After today, he knew without a shadow of a doubt he wanted
Jordan in his bed. It was a foolish dream, one that was destined to ruin his
friendship with Gabriel, but he couldn’t let it go.
    “He won’t give in to me. He keeps using his fingers, driving
me higher and higher until I come. It’s an amazing orgasm. I swear I see
fireworks, but when I open my eyes, he’s gone and I’m alone.”
    Her eyelids slowly rose, her gaze landing on his face.
    “I’m still here.” He wasn’t sure what compelled him to make
such a statement, but Jordan didn’t pull away, didn’t reject him.
    “You’re here.” Her words were simple and the wishful thinker
in him heard approval in her tone.
    “Jordan. I want to kiss you.”
    She nodded. “I want that too. So much.”
    He moved closer, his lips a millimeter from hers.
    “Casey? Jordan?”
    Gabriel’s voice broke the spell and reality crashed down on
Casey’s head like a ton of bricks. Fuck. What was he doing?
    He turned and saw the hurt in his best friend’s eyes.
    “Gabriel.” Jordan was the first to break the silence. “What are
you doing here?”
    “I had a meeting.”
    “Oh,” Jordan said. “That’s right. I forgot your family’s
company is a major shareholder in the mall.”
    Casey was surprised by her steady voice and the distinct
lack of color in her face. She wasn’t blushing, wasn’t embarrassed to be caught
with him. Whether she realized it or not, she was playing into his original
plan perfectly. Gabriel was not happy to see them sitting together so closely,
the jealousy so thinly veiled Casey was surprised Jordan seemed oblivious to it.
    “Did you change your hair?” Gabriel asked.
    Jordan reached up to touch it. “Yeah. I’ve always wanted red
highlights. Casey likes them. What do you think?”
    Gabriel looked at him, shooting daggers as if this new,
hotter Jordan was somehow his fault. “It looks very pretty. Of course, I liked
it the other way too.”
    “You did?”
    Gabriel smiled at her. “Yeah. I did. What are you two doing
here?”
    “We’re just hanging out. Jordan was shopping and I offered
to come along.”
    She looked at him, confusion in her gaze. Clearly she’d
expected him to call their outing a date. If he’d been smart, he would have,
but he was torn.
    He wanted Gabriel to be happy. He wanted Jordan. Those two
desires were in direct
