"A walk on the wild side? I'm scared to ask."

"Come on, Tess. Live a little."

"I think between throwing a drink at both you and Molly, kissing you for the first time under the stars, having Molly humiliate me with that bucket of water, and then grinding against you in your bed, wearing your clothes, I've lived enough in the last twelve hours. Wouldn't you agree?"

"Things do seem to get more complicated when you're around." Hardin chuckles.

"I think I better just get back to the dorm. I have a lecture from Emma waiting for me."

"And there's absolutely no way I can convince you to come with me?"

"Tell me where we're going."

"Nope. You have to agree first, then I'll show you."

"Is that your go to move? You already used that line on me last night."

"No. This is my go to move." Hardin tucks my hair behind my ear and gently caresses my cheek before leaning in for a kiss. Damn, he's good.

"Fine..." I groan.

"I knew I'd break you." He smirks.

"But it better not be too wild."

"Don't worry, Theresa, I think you'll approve," he says and gives me that sinful smile again.

Hardin and I leave the frat house, get into his car and he drives us back to campus.

"Hardin? Did you change your mind? Are you going to drop me off at my dorm after all?"

"Nope. This is where we're going."

"I don't understand."

"Would you just let go of control for one minute, Theresa? Just trust me."

"I don't like to lose control," I huff.

"Unless you're in my bed, rubbing yourself against me." He smirks.

"Shush!" I shout and hit him in his arm.

"Ouch!" He chuckles. "You like it rough. I'll remember that."

Hardin and I get out of the car and walk through the university, until we reach the library.

"This is where you're bringing me? The library? How is that walking on the wild side?"

"It is when you have to break in."

"What?!"

"The library is closed today. We're going to break in."

"You're not serious."

Hardin stares at me for a moment.

"Of course you're serious." I sigh. I look away as Hardin starts to jiggle and pick at the library door lock. I want to be able to deny seeing anything, in case we get caught.
