Can’t Get Enough - Contemporary, Interracial, Erotic Romance

“I didn’t know if you were driving or not and figured a bottle of water was the safest choice.”

“Thanks. But a beer would have been okay.” Faith suddenly became aware of their hands touching and pulled back,  clasping the bottle tightly in an attempt to hide her desperately in need of a manicure hands.

“So I already know your best friend talked you into this. What else should I know about you?”

She shook her head, wondering how much she should say. What do you tell a guy on a pseudo first date?

“I haven’t had sex in three years. By choice. I’m a tomboy. I have a tendency to talk to myself and answer myself. And sometimes I talk aloud when I really mean to say it to myself.”

“Do you realize you just said that out loud?”

“Shit. Sorry. I have a tendency to do that. Sorry.” She took a long drink of the water. “How about that beer?”

“Are you driving?”

“No.” She paused, “On second thought, if I know Crystal, she probably found a decent Mr. Right Now or Mr. For the Night. So I better stick to water.”

At that moment, Crystal came over with a tall, dreadlocked man with a goatee. “I’m going to take Nate home.” She whispered, “Can you find a ride?”

“Excuse us for a second.” Faith stood, grabbed Crystal’s arm and dragged her a few feet away. “What happened to we come together we leave together? Do I need to remind you that this was your idea?”

“What? He’s hot. And unlike you, I’m not celibate. I like sex.”

“I like sex too.” She said a bit too loudly. Blowing out a breath, “Fine. Do what you want. I’ll catch a cab home.”

“He looks a little square but maybe he’s good in bed.” Crystal said. “Look just try to have some fun.”

“And you be careful. He may be a dark chocolate, less muscled version of  The Rock. But he could still be a perv. Call me when you get in. And call me if you go to his place. Or at least text me with his address so I’ll know where to send the police. I mean it Crystal. If I don’t hear from you by this time tomorrow. I’m sending your brothers after him.” She paused, “Better yet.” She pulled her phone from it’s case and went back over to where the guys were talking. “Say cheese, Nate.” She snapped his pic with her camera phone. “Have fun.”

“Come on Nate. I wanna show you that tongue trick I was talking about.” He just smiled, grabbed her hand and led her away from them.

Michael waited for her to be seated before he sat down again, “It’s good how you look after you friend.”

“Sometimes she can be her own worst enemy.”

“I can give you a ride home if you’d like. I promise I’m not a pervert.”

“I think most perverts would say that. And I appreciate the offer but I’ll take a cab. It’ll be kinda hypocritical if I didn’t.”

“What if I want to see you again?”

She pulled a business card out of her back pocket and got a pen from the side table where brochures for the speed dating service was sitting. After quickly scribbling her cell phone number on the back, she handed him the card. “I’m at the number on the front most of the time. But if I’m not there. That’s the next best thing.”

Faith watched for his reaction while she called for a cab.

He’s gonna be just like the other guys. Drop the card and run when he sees what I do.

He turned the card over so he could read the front.
