Enjoying the chase - Chapter 6

Russell pulled off his training gloves and threw them into the pile in the corner, "You'll grow up soon and I can't wait to see the girl who makes the player settle down. Damn you're in for a serious shock when you meet the girl who turns your head. You won't know what's hit you, it's gonna be hilarious to watch." he laughed and slapped me on the back as he walked off towards the showers.

I blew out a big breath, I hoped I didn't meet her in a way. I was happy with my life the way it was; easy, no responsibilities, no worries or girlfriend. All I had to think about was me and that made everything plenty interesting. My mind wandered to Ashton, he used to be like me, and now he had Anna and Cameron. He always looked so damn happy all the time, not that I'm surprised though because Anna and him were made for each other. Part of me wanted to hold onto my easy life but sometimes - just sometimes - I wanted a little bit of that happiness that Ashton had. That security and the knowing that someone would always be there for you, he always looked so fulfilled and contented and I couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

Three hours later I pulled up at her apartment, I'd restrained from texting her today so she didn't have any excuse to cancel on me. At the moment she didn't have my number so she had no way of getting in contact with me to put a stop to this dinner unless she went to trouble of getting my number from Anna. I was being sneaky I know, but I wanted to see her so I didn't want to take the risk. I grabbed the flowers and chocolates from the passenger seat of my car and went to the buildings external door, pressing the buzzer for her apartment.

"Hello?" she crackled through the intercom. I couldn't help but smile at the sound of her voice, damn it what on earth is wrong with me lately? I need to get laid and soon.

"Hey pumpkin it's me." The door buzzed and I heard the lock click so I pulled it open and practically ran up the stairs to her door eager to see her again. I'd made a little more effort tonight and was wearing black pants and a blue short sleeve shirt; blue was always my colour all the girls said so, apparently it brought out my eyes whatever that crap meant.

She opened the door and I fought hard against myself not to drop my jaw on the floor. She looked so damn hot that my mouth watered and my dick was doing a little happy dance in my pants. $hit I hope I can tap that tonight otherwise I'm definitely going to be thinking about her later!

She was wearing a lacy sleeveless black dress that clung to her in all the right places and cut off about her mid-thigh and damn I couldn't even breathe. Did we really have to go out tonight? All I wanted to do was get that hot little dress off of her because I had a feeling it would look even better in a pile on the floor.

"$hit, you look..... damn...... Muffin you bring a whole new meaning to the word edible." I said before I could stop myself. I couldn't stop my eyes raking down her body drinking in every inch of her greedily as I started to get hard just at the thought of touching her.

She blushed a little and laughed, "Do you need a few more minutes to complete that fantasy or are we good to go?" she asked leaning on the door smirking at me.

"No I'm done for now, I'll finish my fantasy later when we can both enjoy it." I grinned at her as she rolled her eyes.

"Oh really? You're pretty confident I'd enjoy it. Not overestimating your skills there are you player?" she teased.
