doing again?” I ask through a yawn. It’s been a long week and I’m beat, but when he called and said he was on his way to pick me up, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to hang out with him.
    “Netflix and chill.”
    “And by Netflix and chill, you mean?”
    “I mean sprawl out on the couch in sweats, eat pizza, drink—beer for me, Cherry Coke for you—and binge watch Daredevil until we explode or fall asleep.”
    “I like your version much better than most other guys’.”
    He shifts his head, blatantly looking me up and down. “I only offered the tame version because I didn’t think you’d go for the dirty one.”
    I return the deliberate ogling, letting my eyes trail over him slowly. I’m not too proud to admit I find Cooper is incredibly good looking. He and his brother have such similar facial features, though Miles is light—blonde hair and pale blue eyes, and Cooper is dark—black hair and butterscotch eyes. They are a perfect mix of their parents.
    There is no denying, though, that Cooper has a thicker, harder frame than his younger sibling. And now that I’m actually paying attention, I can’t help but notice how sexy he is. Not that we have that kind of relationship. Everything between us is strictly PG-13—due to our foul mouths and playful sexual innuendos.
    “You know I love dirty,” I reply, letting my eyes linger on his mouth. He doesn’t respond with his usual quick wit, and my gaze flicks up to meet his.
    “Don’t tempt me, Ems. I haven’t been laid in weeks.”
    I roll my eyes. “Oh, poor baby. Weeks ? How ever do you manage not to hump everything in sight after being deprived for so long? I can’t believe your cock hasn’t fallen off from lack of use.” I gasp in feigned horror, raising my hand to my mouth. “Your balls are probably bluer than a smurf!” I flip him off, putting my middle finger right in his face. “Weeks. I haven’t been laid in twenty years.”
    “You know,” he retorts, “that was a bit of an overreaction. It sounded a little like you were projecting.” We stop at a red light and he turns in his seat to face me. “Is someone sexually frustrated?”
    I throw my hands up in a DUH motion. “There’s only so much I can do for myself.”
    He cocks a brow, his eyes drifting over me once again, but where before it was lighthearted and good-natured, this time his gaze is searing. I swear I can almost feel it caressing every inch of me. Goose bumps prickle my skin.
    “There’s only so much you can do for yourself, Ems, but there’s a limitless amount I can do for you. To you. All you need do is ask.”
    “Light’s green,” I breathe.
    His lips part, his tongue sliding out to wet them, and his eyes blaze. I feel my stomach tighten and it’s been a long time since I’ve had this feeling. Only one other guy has ever been able to incite a reaction like this.
    The car behind us blows their horn. “The light is green,” I say again, only this time it’s barely more than a whisper.
    “What?” Cooper whips his head back, looking up at the stoplight and curses. We start moving again, both of us quiet, and for the first time since my sister’s wedding, there’s tension between us.

    Cooper
     
     
    As soon as we get inside my apartment, I head straight into the bathroom and splash cold water on my face. I press my palms into the counter and stare at myself in the mirror.
    What the fuck was the Cooper?
    What were you doing?
    What are you doing now?
    Your dick is fucking hard.
    For Emerson Metz.
    For Roselyn’s baby sister.
    What the fuck?
    Seriously. What the fuck?
    I try reigning it in. Try to gain control of my speeding pulse. But damn. When Em said the light was green, I thought she meant she was good to go. That she wanted me, and fuck if I didn’t want her too. Badly.
    And there was something about her desiring me . Seeing me . Not my brother. I can’t even describe how that made me feel.
    Needed.
    Strong.
    Chosen .
