Finding Us

“Dude, move the f**k out of the way.” Jeremy yells.
Knox reaches out and places a hand on my hip. My whole body goes tense waiting for his next move. The anticipation is killing me.
“You ok?” Knox asks me over the sound of another wave crashing over my legs.
“Yeah, you?” I shiver but it’s not from the water this time. Knox’s hand is burning my skin. I so desperately want to fall back against his strong chest and have his arms wrapped around me.
“I wanna touch.” Jeremy pouts as he stands next to me.
I laugh and bend at the waist and splash him with the water. A sly grin comes across his face and the next thing I know I’m wrapped in the wrong arms and carried out into the ocean. He doesn’t let me down until he is shoulder deep in the water. I have to tread because I can’t touch the bottom.
Knox swims out to us with a blank expression on his face. I’m not sure how to take it but I don’t have time to dwell on it as Cade swims over to us and picks me up and throws me up in the air.
The guys are clowning around and I’m relaxing just floating on my back. Knox grabs my feet and brings me to him. I sit up and my legs go around his waist and my arms are wrapping around his neck. This is the closest we’ve ever been aside from the night back at Club Two Twelve.
Knox groans as a wave comes and shifts our bodies somehow closer. I notice right away that even in this cold water he has an erection. My center tightens from the feel of it pressed against me and with the waves coming one right after another the friction is making it worse and the need to rock my h*ps is so strong.
“Jasmine…” Knox trails off.
The way he says my name makes me lose all control. The rest of the world fades out and it’s just me and Knox. My h*ps start moving discretely against his length in sync with the motion of the waves and I almost come apart at the seams right then and there.
“Jasmine,” Knox tries again.
I wrap my legs around his waist a little tighter and grind harder against him. As I stare into his eyes I see the want and desire in them.
“Damn, y’all would make a f**king awesome  p**n o video.” Cade says from somewhere behind me.
I scrunch my face in disgust. Knox loosens his hold on me and I drop my legs from around him. Our moment is over.
“You ready to get out of here and go get some dinner?” Cade suggests.
“Hell yeah, I’m starving.” Jeremy responds.
Knox quips back, “Douchebag, you just ate before we came down here.”
Jeremy grins, “I’m gonna need my strength tonight.”
I shake my head back and forth in repulsion, “Pig.”
Cade and Jeremy start to swim back up to the shower and I try to follow behind but not before Knox pulls me back against him. He gently thrust his h*ps into my ass reminding me of his problem.
I swim out of his embrace and smile sweetly. “You coming?”
Knox glares.
I giggle at the double meaning of coming and swim away before Knox can get me. I hear him grumble something behind me but I don’t stop until I’m touching the bottom of the ocean. I turn around and see that he’s still out there by himself, not making any moves to follow me.
I walk up to my towel and start drying my body off.
“So who did all your ink?” Jeremy asks.
“Tony from back home, he’s the only one I’ll go to.” I tell him.
“Nice, he does good work.” Jeremy says while letting his eyes roam over my body. I know he isn’t just looking at my tattoos.
I look back over the ocean to see where Knox is. He’s still where we left him.
I turn back around to slip my shorts on and Cade is standing there smiling out in Knox’s direction. “You did a number on him. Good job JJ.” He praises.
I pick up my flip flops and Kindle and walk back up to the house with a satisfied smile on my face. It’s about damn time that I got one up on Knox.
Knox 1. Jasmine 1.
After I’ve showered and dressed in a gray Maxi dress I step into the bedroom and see Knox sitting on the floor outside the bathroom door.
My eyebrows bunch, “Everything ok?”
Knox takes his time gazing at my body and every inch that he gets closer to my face a blush creeps up too.
“Couldn’t be better,” he says with a lazy smile before standing and walking into his bathroom.
I go downstairs but I didn’t see anyone so I grab a bottle of water and head back upstairs and wait for everyone to get ready for dinner.
Rex is walking out of his room with a few towels in his hand. “What’s up?”
“What’s up with you?” I walk over and ruffle his hair.
He glares at me, “Just going to throw these downstairs.”
I nod and move out of his way.
“Hey Jas?” Rex stops just before the steps.
With my hand on the door knob I look over to Rex.
“I’m glad you decided to come.” He winks and makes his way downstairs.
I’m glad I came too.
I walk into Knox’s room without knocking, thinking he would still be in the shower, but he was just coming out in only a pair of tight black boxer briefs. The water bottle that I was holding falls from my hands.
Everything Knox has to offer is on full display and his tight boxers don’t leave much to the imagination. My core tightens as I have the urge to squeeze my legs to get some relief. I want this man and I’m only holding on by a string and it’s only a matter of time before it breaks. I close my eyes and take a deep breath and then open my eyes and focus on anything other than Knox.
This is going to be a very, very, long, hot night.
I’m f**ked. When I saw her on the beach in her black and red bikini I about exploded in my shorts. I swear my body thinks it’s thirteen again. I wanted to take Jasmine right there in the ocean for all to see and I didn’t give a shit as long as I was buried so deep that nothing mattered.
I’m torn because I know I shouldn’t feel things for her but I do. It’s scaring the shit out of me. Jasmine is responding the way that I want her to. Her f**king body responded to mine even when she didn’t want it to.
Rex is avoiding me as much as possible without making it look obvious to everyone else. He caught me on my way to my room when I was finally able to get my dick to calm down.
“You still going along with this stupid plan of yours?” Rex says as he leans against the wall in the hallway across from my room.
I grip the towel that is around my neck, “Rex don’t start your shit.”
