She knew the exact amount of time it took him to reach his side of the vehicle after he let her in. She twisted the uppermost button of her conservative silk peach blouse while resting her head against the headrest; eyes closed.
"Why you gotta play me like that girl?"He responded half agitated, half hurt.
She turned her gaze towards his playing innocent."Do what? I just thought you might need a preview of coming attractions,"she quipped as she continuously toyed with the option of opening her blouse just a tad bit further.
"You aren't showing any yet as far as I can see."
"You thought I was actually gonna do it?"
"That's cold,"he said starting the vehicle.
"Age?"
He turned to her voice."What?"
"Here ya go,"she said dropping the blouse off her shoulder then returned it to it's previous position.
"You're gonna wish you didn't do that."
"Promise?"she smiled at the frustration he was containing as she hiked her skirt just a slight bit.
He caught a glimpse of her exposed thigh as they came to a stop at a red light.
"When have I not kept my promises to you sweetness?"he reached over; his hand skimming lightly over the exposed area.
"Now that's a promising endeavor,"Stephanie met his gaze dead on.
"It's promising alright,"he raised his brows suggestively as his fingers crept under the taut material.
She rolled her tongue over her lips not once losing him."Could be but you'll have to wait til the next light to see where it leads,"she smirked and moved his hand back onto the wheel.
He mumbled something as they continued the journey.
"Something on your mind J?"
"Nothing baby,"He smiled half heartedly and returned his concentration to the road ahead.
She ran her hand against his thigh and said,"Aww,poor baby."
"You'll think poor baby."
"Promises, promises,"she said rolling her eyes and turned back to the endless stretch of city landscape. They rode silently until the next light.
"It's okay,"she smiled and softly kissed the back of his hand."No more games til we get home?"
"Truce,"he agreed but relucted in his mind.
They pulled into the drive and she waited for him to come around like he always did. This time he didn't . She saw him heading toward the house when she got out and slammed the vehicle's door; attaining his attention."Something wrong?"
She glared.
"Oh baby. I'm so sorry. I forgot."
Fighting the urge to lay into him, she turned her mood."No problem. I shouldn't assume."
"But it would be rude of me not to escort you to the house,"he conceded coming toward her.
"It's really not necessary,"she said starting up the walk. She lost her footing as he came at her and slung her over his shoulder."Put me down,"she protested.
"I can't do that darlin,"he said continuing toward the door. He kicked the door shut and carted her up the stairs much to her naggingly incessant demands to be let down.
