I parked my car on the side of the street and took a moment to take in my surroundings. There was a huge house across the street, teenagers littering the front yard, and probably packing the whole place. I didn't have to double check the house number to know that this was where the after party was happening.

I rubbed my shaved head as I got out of the car, trying to decide what to do tonight.

Should I get hammered? Probably not.

Should I try to find Parker? Probably not.

Am I going to stay away from the smirking blonde? Probably not.

There's just something about him that I can't resist. Is it his intoxicating lips? Or those playful blue eyes? Whatever it is, was driving me crazy. I knew as soon as I stepped foot in that house and saw him leaning against a wall by the living room, that there was no way I was not going to talk to him tonight. But I still had to get back at him for how nonchalantly he acted after our kiss at the football game anyway.

I ignored the looks I was getting as I walked up to Parker, his famous smirk intensifying when he caught sight of me. What is it about that look that makes me want to wipe it off his face so bad?

When I got to him I grabbed the drink in his hand, put it down on the closest surface, and engulfed his hand in mine, dragging him to the make shift dance floor. If there's one thing I can do, it's drive someone wild. And that's exactly what I plan to do to him.

When we were in the middle of the crowded room I turned to face him and gave him a smirk of my own when his was nowhere to be seen.

I started dancing to the fast paced rhythm of the music and Parker just stood there, staring at me like I had two heads.

I rolled my eyes and took his hands so he had no choice but to dance with me. At first he was stiff and reluctant, but when he realized that I wasn't going to let him go he gave in and a genuine smile tugged at his lips as we moved to the beat. It was nice to see something other than a smirk on his face.

As we danced in sync I slowly got closer to him until there was almost no space between us. I could tell by the way his eyes darkened, that our close proximity was getting to him. My plan is working.

When I saw him glance down at my lips I slowly leaned in until he closed his eyes, anticipating my lips on his. But instead of that, I planted a chaste kiss on his cheek. 

His eyes shot open in surprise, and I almost felt bad when I saw disappointment flash across his face.

To avoid looking at that expression anymore, I  pulled him against me and closed my eyes, continuing to dance to the slightly slower beat.

I felt his chest heave with a sigh before he got back into moving his body to the music.

A few songs went by when he suddenly smashed his lips to mine, taking me by complete surprise. This was the first time he initiated a kiss with me.

I quickly gained my composure and eagerly kissed him back, smirking against his lips when he bit my bottom lip and I denied him access to my mouth. My goal was to affect him like he affected me earlier today. I wasn't going to cave in no matter how bad I wanted to.

When he realized what I was doing he pulled away, his mouth forming a frustrated pout. He looked incredibly adorable, his blonde hair messier than I'd ever seen it, and his blue eyes swirling with so many emotions.

"You win." He mumbled after a moment of silence.

I raised a brow and half my mouth lifted in a lazy smile.

"Just kiss me like you mean it." He growled, grabbing the back of my neck and pulling me in for another kiss.

I had to admit, the way he said that was extremely hot.

This time when he silently asked for access, I granted it to him and he made a sexy sound of appreciation in return before deepening the kiss. A trail of warmth was left behind as Parker ran his hand from my neck down my back to my waist, and I grabbed his shirt, pulling him impossibly closer.

A few moments later I pulled away, because if I didn't pull away then, I don't think I ever would. There's just something about this guy.

Parker caught my attention by grabbing my hand and tugging me away from the crowd of people, toward the other side of the house.

My eyebrows scrunched in confusion, where is he taking me?

"I wanna show you something." He spoke up, answering my silent question.

Without another word we exited the house through the back door and walked across the breathtaking garden until we came across a bench in front of a small pond.

"This is my peaceful place." Parker explained as we sat down.

I choked on my spit, "This is your house?"

He rolled his eyes at my reaction and that famous smirk slipped onto his face.

"Damn." I muttered to myself, taking in the beautiful property again. I couldn't even imagine living here.

"My mom's a really good lawyer." He explained.

He's lucky.

"My mom doesn't do anything, but my dad's in the military. We move around a lot because of it." I found myself telling him.

I never talk about myself or my family, especially with people I just met. I've only known Parker for a day, why am I opening up to him?

He offered me a half smile, "That must suck."

I hummed in agreement. It sucks more than people realize.

"I'm not looking for a relationship or anything, just so you know." I blurted, building my walls back up.

I was probably going to move at the end of the year, I don't need to start anything up with him. 

Parked nodded in understanding, "I'm not either."

I studied his face and something inside me stirred. Something I haven't felt in a long time. My heart felt light and heavy at same time when he looked at me, and his blue eyes seemed to see past the mask I wore. It's like he could see the real me, which is terrifying and exciting. 

Even though my brain was telling me not to do anything stupid with this guy, my heart was saying something different. The devil on my shoulder told me to risk everything and dive head first in with Parker, but the angel was telling me to get out while I still could.

I wanted more with this guy, so much more than just a make out buddy. I knew it would never work in the end but there's just something about him. I should've known that this is what happens when you kiss a jock.
