Teasing Phoenix
Chapter 7
SAM
Phoenix almost kissed me! Yeah, almost. I was anticipating when he leaned closer, but before it happened, he pulled back.
I’m actually a little bit disappointed. Well, we shouldn’t, right? Who kisses a friend anyway?
He always smells good—a scent of mint and musk, probably his cologne or his aftershave.
Something feels different in his touch—it feels good, soothing, and igniting—like I want to cocoon in his arms.
I’m glad we became friends though because I really missed him. I even admitted it.
Going to his club is maybe a good idea. I can meet someone to get rid of whatever feelings I have for Phoenix. It’s insane how I know a little about him, and just met him recently, yet I feel the strong pull toward him.
I might take Amy’s advice to get laid—my spell has been dried a long time ago, and she’s right—it’s time to clear away the cobwebs because I will die waiting if I will expect that Phoenix is the right man for me—we’re just friends.
SAM: Hi, it’s me, Samantha. I was thinking about going to your club tonight. I’ll bring Amy with me.
I press send.
PHOENIX: Samantha, I’m glad you finally decide. Bring Amy with you. Can’t wait to see you tonight.
SAM: See you later.
PHOENIX: Later, beautiful.
Before I can dial Amy, another message from Phoenix pops.
PHOENIX: By the way, I’m not flirting with you. Friends don’t flirt, do they?
I roll my eyes. I can’t help but smile.
SAM: I don’t know you’re flirting until you said so. Maybe I’m just a dumb or I don’t know what flirting means at all.
PHOENIX: You better don’t know how to flirt or the meaning it. I hate to say this, but you can’t flirt with any man tonight.
I shake my head. This man is something.
SAM: And why is that?
PHOENIX: Because you will be stuck with me all night.
SAM: Seriously, Phoenix, your overprotectiveness is annoying, but don’t worry I have no plan on flirting with anyone tonight. Your presence, your highness is entertaining enough for me.
PHOENIX: I’ll try scaring some asshole who will try to hit on my new beautiful friend tonight. It will be an honor to entertain you, princess.
I bark out laughing.
“What’s going on there, sweetie?” Carp! My mom overheard me.
“Um, nothing mom. Just some stupid joke from Twitter,” I yell, then bite my lower lip to contain my laugh.
“Whatever, sweetie. If it’s a boy, I need to meet him, right, Sam?”
“Mom, just a friend, and no boy.”
