Flirting with Danger

Chapter 2

"Kane." I groaned digging my fingers into his back. He slowly pulled away. He studied me for a few minutes then flopped down beside me.

"I think you left marks." He mumbled. I just looked over at him to see him smirking.

"Shut up." I snapped.

"Are you always in such a bad mood?" I narrowed my eyes.

"What's that supposed to mean?" I demanded. He just smiled.

"You're always snapping at me and glaring at me." I rolled my eyes.

"I've known you for like a day." I pointed out. He shrugged.

"We just had sex. I already know you better than most people." I felt my cheeks heat up. It's not like I needed the reminder. We were both still completely naked.

"Nobody finds out about this." I told him. He blinked at me. "You know how people are. I just don't want it all over the place. People stick their noses where they don't belong enough as it is. They find out about this and well, I don't think I need to continue."

We both knew how people were here. Small town and everybody was always in someone else's business. I didn't need anybody else in my business. When people know something is going on between two people, they stick their noses all in it and make things worse. It was just sex, nothing more. Nobody needed to know about it. I'm sure people already knew Kane and I had left the party together, so they'd probably already guessed what happened. I hadn't been planning on any of this though. I didn't even want to leave with him, I had no other choice.

Liz's mom had called her and threatened her into coming home early. I wasn't ready to go home, and I wasn't going to Liz's house when her mom was already mad. I'd just stayed at the party knowing I could find a ride home. Kane had kept his distance most of the night, but I always caught him watching me. I'd been looking for someone to take me home when Ryan walked up to me. He kept asking me the same question over and over. Do you want to go home with me? No, I didn't. I didn't even think he should be driving himself. He wouldn't leave me alone or let me move. Kane had walked up and made him leave, then offered to drive me. Somehow I'd ended up in his bed.

"I know. I see your point. Nobody finds out. You were stranded at the party so I gave you a ride home. Even though I have no idea where you live." Kane told me.

"It's about five miles back." I admitted. He furrowed his eyebrows.

"You mean, you let me pass your house and didn't say anything?" I nodded. "Why?" He asked. I just shrugged.

"Maybe I didn't want to go home. Maybe I wanted this more." I mumbled. He'd been teasing me from the moment we'd gotten in his car. I mean sexually teasing me at that. I couldn't take it anymore. By the time we passed the road I lived down, I'd wanted him. He smirked at me as he leaned back over me.

"You can stay here tonight." He wrapped his arm around my waist pulling me closer to him. "Right here, with me, all night." I just smiled as I pulled him down to my lips again.

I rolled over with a groan. I sat up and slowly looked around. My eyes widened. These were not my walls. I groaned when the sleep left my brain. I had sex with Kane Wallace, twice. I'd spent the night with Kane. I looked down beside me. Where was he? Instead of finding Kane, I found a piece of paper. "I'm down in the gym area. Just go down the stairs and make a right. Go all the way down the hallway to the very last door. Follow the stairs all the way down." I read. I shrugged as I climbed out of bed. I put my pants back on. I already had one of Kane's shirts on. I didn't feel like putting mine on. Kane's was more comfortable anyway. I followed the instructions on the note.

I found a room full of gym equipment with several guys standing around something. I walked closer to see a mat and two guys fighting. One held his hand up to me causing everybody to look at me. I realized it was Kane. The guys just gave me a weird look. I watched as Kane fought the guy. Kane won of course. "Nobody opens their mouth about her being here. If I find out it left this room, you'll have to deal with me and you won't be allowed back." Kane told them as he walked over to me. I looked at the gloves on his hands.

"How long have you been up doing this?" I asked. He shrugged.

"Since about seven or so. So far nobody has beaten me." He smirked. I rolled my eyes.

"Damn. Sad. You need to be beaten. Your ego is getting too big." I told him.

I looked around the room. My eyes landed on an extra pair of gloves. I grabbed them. "It's my turn." I told him. He seemed to light up.

"Oh really? You want a turn?" He teased.

"Just get your ass over here. I'm not as fragile as I look." I snapped. His eyes ran down my body.

"I found that out last night." I felt my cheeks heat up.

"Is it just because I'm a girl?" I asked. He gave me a look.

"I don't hit girls." He replied. I shrugged.

"Technically, you wouldn't really be hitting me. We're just playing around. Come on." I told him. He sighed and stepped on the mat.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Who the hell taught you to fight?" He huffed out. I'd held up pretty good against him. Better than some of the other guys I've seen fight him. He'd started off by taking it easy on me. When he saw how I fought, he quit being so easy.

"I had to learn. I have three brothers." I replied. He nodded like he understood.

"They taught you how to defend yourself." I shook my head.

"One is in a wheelchair, one is gay, and one has autism. I had to protect my brothers growing up. You know how people can be." I explained. He nodded.

"They get bullied?" I nodded.

"But not for long after their little sister heard about it. One boy thought he could beat up on Tommy just because he's gay. I didn't like that. He ended up with a broken arm." Kane chuckled.

"Tough girl. I like it." I looked away as I felt my cheeks heat up again.
