That pisses me off. I glare hard at her as she smirks at me.
“Is that so?”
I stalk towards her and pin her arms above her head against the wall. “Yeah that is so.” She moans back.
I look around for the vibrator and spot it on the floor near the drain. I keep her arms pinned with one hand while I reach down and grab it. I turn it on and reach down between her legs. I place it on her cl*t causing her eyes to roll to the back of her head. I tease her for a couple of minutes, letting her squirm before dropping it and plunging two fingers deep inside her. Her head falls forward and she bites down on my shoulder.
“Fuck,” I groan.
I pump my fingers a little faster and curve them so they’re hitting that spot and within seconds she screaming my name as her pu**y is gripping my fingers while she rides out her orgasm. When I know she’s coming back down I hold her body up against mine because I know she’s not going to be able to hold herself up for a little bit.
“Damn, Cooper.” Jaylinn says breathily and I lose myself in the sound.
I kiss her hard on the lips, letting my tongue explore her mouth.
“Still feel like you’ve got to get yourself off?” I ask her as I push back some of the hair that’s fallen in front of her face.
“That wasn’t supposed to happen.” Jaylinn smirks at me. “I already had myself worked up before you walked in.”
I chuckle. “Oh yeah?”
“Yup.” Jaylinn pops the p.
She looks down between our bodies and notices that I’m still achingly hard. Her little hand starts to slide down my body but I stop her.
“Let me.” She pleads.
“Not tonight.” I tell her before placing a kiss on her swollen lips.
“Cooper,” She whines.
I ignore her and reach over to turn the water on cold. I’m surprised we even have any hot water left at this point. Jaylinn yelps and steps back out of the spray.
“That’s not right, Cooper!” Jaylinn opens the shower door and jumps out, still dripping wet.
I let the freezing cold water run all over my body but I know that nothing is going to help me at this point and it’s only going to give me a little relief. I know as soon as that water is off, I’m not getting off and that sucks for me.
Fuck, sucks. What I wouldn’t give for that. My head falls to the shower wall a little harder than necessary but I’m hoping it knocks some sense into me.

The last few days Cooper has been doing everything to avoid being alone with me. He’s been meeting with Eli a lot about the whole club business and trying to get it launched before pre-season starts up in February. His time at the gym is lasting a lot longer than normal and when he comes home he’s so exhausted that half the time he falls asleep on the couch. He’s been hanging out at his brother’s or MacKenzie’s house a lot more too.
It’s pretty clear he’s avoiding me.
It’s Thursday afternoon and I just left the gym. A few of the girls from the soccer team called and asked if I wanted to meet up. I agreed because I needed to let out some aggression. I’m super frustrated with the way things are between Cooper and me right now. I know what you’re thinking - I can solve it all by giving him an ultimatum; me or nothing at all. Deep down inside though, I’m afraid that he’ll choose the latter. I know in my heart that Cooper would never hurt me and he’s just keeping me at arms-length because he thinks that’s what’s best. But damn it, he shouldn’t be the one who gets to decide that for me.
No sooner do I get upstairs and start to undress so that I can jump in the shower, than my cell phone rings. I run out of the bathroom in nothing but my panties and bra.
“Hello?” I say after snatching it up from one of the pockets in my purse.
“Hey,” Cooper says.
My heart skips a beat at the sound of his voice, “What’s up?”
He’s in his truck; I can hear his turn signal. “You have plans tonight?”
I shake my head, “No. I was just about to jump in the shower.”
“Alright, I’m going out to dinner with Eli. I wanted to see if you wanted to come out with us.”
He hasn’t wanted anything to do with me since the shower incident, so why now?
“Um, no I’ll just hang out around here and watch a movie or something. Have fun, I’ll talk to you later.”
I hang up before he even has a chance to respond. I don’t want to hear him say ok. I don’t want to hear him say anything right now, unless it’s yes.
My phone rings again as soon as I toss it on the bed. I peek back over at it and it’s Cooper calling back. I ignore it and go back to taking my shower. I stand under the spray for a while, letting the hot water loosen the tight muscles in my legs. I massage the shampoo into my hair and then rinse it and put my new coconut conditioner in.
I’ve just finished shaving my legs when I hear my name being yelled from downstairs. It’s Cooper and he sounds pissed. Oh well. I wash off the shaving cream and start to rinse my hair out when the bathroom door bangs open.
I groan inwardly. He could have at least knocked first. What if I had been standing here naked? Not that I would have cared, he’s seen me na**d a number of times, but still, it’s the principal that gets my back up. I continue to rinse my hair and ignore him until the glass door slides open and Cooper’s stormy blue eyes glare at me. His jaw is set and he’s gripping the door.
I bring my hands down and cross my arms over my chest in an attempt to cover myself up. “I’m almost done, can this wait please?”
I shiver from the storm brewing in his eyes and from the cold air that’s being let into the bathroom. I know I’m going to have a fight on my hands but I don’t understand why. He’s the one that has been ignoring me.
“Cooper?” I repeat myself.
He shakes his head and closes the shower door. I wait to hear the bathroom door shut before going back to what I was doing, but it doesn’t. I look up to the ceiling, willing for the strength to get through this fight without showing Cooper that my feelings have been hurt.
Ten minutes have passed and I know it’s been more than enough time and I’ve got to face the music. I slide the door open just a bit and reach out for my towel that’s on the hook. I dry off quickly and wrap the towel tightly around my body before getting out of the shower.
Cooper is leaning up against the sink doing something on his phone. He looks up at me and I see his face soften, it’s just a little bit but it’s enough for me to know that he knows he’s in the wrong and I’m on to his avoidance.
