Free Maid For You - A Cinderella Love Story by Paisley Lang

girls, leaving just the two of us together. I try to force my attention back to her.
    “Sorry darlin’, just kind of preoccupied this evening.”
    She leans into me, her intentions clear, looking longingly at my lips. Slowly sliding her hand across my thigh, she whispers into my ear.
    “We could get outta here. Just say the word…I can take your mind off whatever’s bothering you…”
    I raise an eyebrow, smirking at her directness, almost tempted for a fraction of a second, ready to smoke this joint.
    But there’s nothing down below.
    Zero reaction to her proposition.
    What the fuck’s wrong with me?
    She notices my hesitation and begins to pout, rejection clearly new to her.
    I drain my beer, slam the bottle down, and give her a quick peck on the cheek. “Sorry, I’m not interested.”
    Her eyes widen and her mouth literally drops open. I smirk and push out of the seat.
    “Asshole.”
    “Later.”

    M y cab pulls up to the house and I’m not quite ready to hit the sack. I take a stroll out to the pool, contemplating sitting outside for a while to try to make some sense of the shit I’m feeling.
    Rounding the corner, I see a silhouette in the moonlight of someone sitting at the side of the pool and gazing up into the sky. As I draw closer, it’s her. Ava.
    It’s past one in the morning and she’s out here alone. The house is shrouded in darkness, so everyone else is asleep. I slowly approach her, mesmerized by her outline. The cooler night air is playing with her hair, very gently lifting it off her shoulders. She’s kicking her feet in the water, unaware of my presence.
    I clear my throat. Startled, she looks up.
    “Hey, Kitten, whatcha doing out here so late?” I’m still feeling the buzz from the drinks, not drunk like an ass, just nice and relaxed. That’s when I notice the bottle of tequila next to her.
    In the glow of the full moon, her eyes widen and her eyes dart to the bottle next to her. She offers me a sheepish smile.
    “Couldn’t sleep. Helped myself to a little of Gaby’s tequila - with her approval, of course.” She giggles and a little hiccup escapes. Her hand flies to her mouth in embarrassment and she peeks at me from under her lashes.
    Freaking adorable.
    I kick off my shoes, rolling up the hem of my jeans and sink down next to her, bumping her shoulders.
    “Miss Cortes, you are underage, you know.”
    “Promise I won’t tell if you won’t.”
    We lock eyes with each other. With nothing but the moonlight casting shadows around us, I feel a magnetic pull towards her that I haven’t experienced before. The energy is highly charged and my gaze slides down to her lips. She parts her lips, and her breathing becomes shallow as I lean in closer. I catch the faint smell of tequila and lime on her mouth. Stopping inches from her lips, I want nothing more than to crush her lips to mine, to finally taste what I’ve been dreaming about for the past few weeks.
    “Ava…” I reach out and lightly run my knuckles down her cheek. She closes her eyes and leans into me, a small sound escaping her lips. She’s fighting this just as much as I am. The sexual tension between us is palpable.
    Abruptly, she pulls away and stands.
    “What you doing?” I lean back, gazing up at her.
    “I really, really want a swim.” Her grin is sexy and mischievous.
    “Right now? Here?”
    She shrugs her shoulders. “Why not?”
    Then she lifts her dress. Shit. I feel like I can’t breathe as she stands there in front of me in just her bra and panties. My eyes feast over her curves and my cock springs to life.
    So you do still work, buddy. Had me worried there for a little while.
    “Join me?” She sashays around to the deep end, rendering me speechless, my eyes are glued to her tight ass.
    Then like a fucking mermaid, she silently dives into the water and disappears under.
