Chapter Twelve: Dropping the Soap

“I’ll have a double cheeseburger meal.” I smile at the nice looking older woman. If I were working this late at night a little kindness would go a long way.

She nods slightly ignoring my friendliness, rude. “Anything else?”

“And a milkshake.” Reed adds, stepping behind me. Once she’s taken our money Reed and I step over to the side. He leans against the counter and grins at me. I smile back.

“You never told me what I get for bringing you here.” His eyes fall down my chest and my cheeks warm up. “Will you tell me now?”

I nervously bite at my bottom lip. There’s no way I can tell him! I haven’t thought about what I was going to do. Honestly I was saying all that stuff just so he would take me! Also I figured he would forget about it. That was stupid considering I’m talking about Reed here. He’s not going to forget a promise.

“Remember what we did that one time?” I gulp.

“Mmh,” He licks his lips slowly, “I remember that quite well.”

Okay here it goes. Just say it.

But…

Do it! Grow a pair and do it!

Oh god.

“Reed when we get back to my house I’d like to, um,” I play with my hands and look down, “do stuff with you.”

“Like what type of stuff?”

I know he knows exactly what I’m talking about. He just loves to torture me, doesn’t he?

“Sex! Dammit Reed! I want to do ‘it’ with you!” The whole building gets silent and I realize I said that kinda loud. “Oh shit.”

“Uh, Sir, here’s your food.” A shocked man stands with his arm stretched out. Reed takes the bag and quickly rushes the both of us out.

“Well that was embarrassing.” I grumble to myself. Reed hears as he gets into the car.

“Embarrassing? I thought it was hilarious!”

I groan and lean against the window. “Reed! Not funny! I made a fool of myself!”

“Well you made me look pretty awesome. I’m getting laid.”

“Not if you keep that up.” I glare at him.

He freezes.

Ha! Score one for dork boy.

“Don’t worry princess;” he places the bag of yummy food on my lap. “They’ll forget it all in the morning.”

“You think so?” I pull the warm bag to my chest. Why is it so cold? This is summer! What happened to the warm? Maybe the world just likes to see me suffer. Embarrassing myself wasn’t enough, it had to go and be cold too.

He nods. “So were you serious in there?”

“Huh?” I turn to look at him. “Oh, you mean the thing.” He nods and waits patiently like a puppy for a bone…Or a teenage boy waiting for a ‘bone’. I curl up on the passenger’s seat. “I was.”

In reality doing “it” with Reed scares me. He doesn’t seem like one to give up his dominance, which means if we do, do “it” he’s going to want to stick his man tool into my ass. I’m not sure how I feel about that. How on earth can that feel good? It seems scary as shit!

“Sweet.” He sips his milkshake and I pull my burger from the bag and start slowly eating it. I’m not really hungry anymore, but food is good.

As I’m taking my last bite a siren blares from behind us.

“Fuck,” Reed mumbles staring at the cop car in the rear view mirror. What could possibly be wrong? We’re not speeding or anything! He pulls over and rolls down the window. Shakily he set his milkshake in the cup holder.

“Are you okay?” Reed looks so pale right now. I’ve never seen him so nervous! Something really bad is wrong.

"Do don't have your license?" I groan. "Dammit, Reed why didn't you tell me?!"

He shrugs.

"I can't believe this."

"You get one phone call." The chubby police man tells us. "I know it's late so if they don't pick up you can call again in the morning." I nod and let the man lead me to the phone. He leaves me be to call my mom.

No answer.

Great.

Reed takes his turn to call; he gets no answer as well. I practically die in the uncomfortable metal chair.

It's four in the morning and I'm in jail. Reed got me arrested. I'M IN JAIL! Oh my god. This is horrible. I'm going to be forced to join like a gang and stab people with a fork or something! And if I ever drop the soap! Those dirty men won’t take mercy on my butt like Reed will.

"Princess, I am so sorry." Reed wraps his arm around me. I cuddle up to him, despite being pissed. What is mom going to do when she finds out we're in jail? It's going to be worse than being in jail.

She's going to kill us.

"Do we have to stay here?" I ask the cop. He gives me a look that makes me feel so stupid. So I restate my question, "can we sleep?"

The cops nods. "I'll lead you to your cell."

"This sucks," I grumble. I've been sitting on a hard bench for too long and now my butt is starting to hurt. Reed frowns and I don't feel a bit sorry for him. This is, after all, all his fault.

"I can't even sleep! This bench is harder than a rock!"

"You can lay on me." He suggests. "I'll be your bed."

"Lay down." I stand, freeing up the rest of the bench. Reed does as I say and I move onto him. It's not the most comfortable thing in the world but it's better than nothing. I burrow my head into the crook of his neck and sigh. All I want to do is go home, home and sleep in my own bed. I guess in the morning mom will either discover we're gone or we’ll call and she’ll find out where we are.

"I'm sorry," Reed whispers. "I'm so, so sorry."

"It's fine," I breath, taking in his smell. I can't exactly explain how he smells. It's like, wet wood or something. Although I can't exactly tell you what it is, I love the smell, it’s calming.

"I'll make it up to you, I swear." He wraps both arms around my waist and holds me close to his chest. It's slightly uncomfortable being so close, but then I just remember what we did the other day and it doesn’t seem so bad.

"Heh, maybe I shouldn't hold you so close?" Reed speaks up after a few seconds. I blush when realizing what he's talking about. Really? That had to go and happen? I'm not going to think about that night ever again! At least not while pressed against the guy who I did all that with- or anyone for that matter.

"Just, shut up Reed." Could today get any worse?
