Free The Coincidence of Callie and Kayden by Jessica Sorensen Page A

the whole world with darkness.
     
    “Are you sure we’re not going to fall?” Callie grips at my upper arm, delving her fingertips into the fabric of my shirt as she blinks her eyes at the ground. “It feels like you’re going to drop me.”
     
    “I’m not going to drop you. I promise.” I tighten my arm around her back and gently tug her closer. “Just relax. We’re almost there.”
     
    I slide my foot down along the rock toward the next ledge, resisting the urge to grab her ass, and place my hand on her lower back. She reaches her hand down, holding on to me as she stretches her leg toward the lower ridge. Once her foot touches it, she relaxes as she steps down on the one below.
     
    I let go of her as her feet touch the bottom. “See, I told you I wouldn’t drop you.”
     
    Showing off a little, I jump down the rest of the way and land in front of her, ignoring the pain in my calf muscles.  “Remind me never to take you somewhere up high again.”
     
    She makes an apologetic face as she brushes the dirt off the front of her shirt with her hands. “I’m sorry, I should have warned you. Although, climbing like that doesn’t seem very natural. It felt like we were trying to be lizards or something.
     
    Unable to help myself, I laugh at her. It’s been a while and it feels good. “So for future planning, what kind of places do you like to go?”
     
    She looks about as lost as I feel. “I have no idea.”
     
    “Well think about it.” I start down the path toward where the truck is parked and Callie follows me. “And the next time I ask you if you want to hang out, you can tell me where.”
     
    Her forehead creases as she stares out at the hills to the side of us. “Is there going to be a next time?”
     
    “Sure,” I say casually. “Why wouldn’t there be?”
     
    She looks at me and shrugs, looking unconvinced. “I don’t know.”
     
    It seems like she knows a lot of things, which is why I should be running away from her, before she finds out about me.  But like my father always says, I was never that bright, and I have a feeling I’m not going to be able to stay away.

    I’m having a good dream. Callie and I are climbing down the cliff. As I help her to the bottom, she bites at her bottom lip, stumbling back against the rocks, looking nervous as hell.
     
    With my eyes locked on her lips, I place my hands on the rocky wall, so her head is trapped between my arms. Her body trembles as I tip my head down and breathe against her neck. I love that she’s shivering and I want to make her shiver more.
     
    The palms of my hands slide down the rocks, the jagged edges scraping against my skin. It’s a combination of pain and fucking want and my adrenaline pumps through my body. Gripping her hips, her lips part as her head falls back and she moans.
     
    “Tell me you want me,” I say, because I have a feeling she’s never told anyone that.
     
    “I want you,” she breathes.
     
    Lifting her up, my lips come down on hers as I press up against her, wanting nothing more than to rip her clothes off and bury my dick deep inside her.
     
    “Wake up, lover boy.” A warm hand pats my cheek and I fling my arm at them because they’re ruining my dream.
     
    “Come on, sexy boy.” Someone bounces on top of me. “You have a present waiting for you if you wake up.”
     
    I blink my eyes open to a pair of blue eyes and a lot of curly blond hair hanging in my face.
     
    Daisy is straddling my lap, wearing a short denim skirt, and a white lacy top. “Surprise.”
     
    I rise up on my elbows, feeling deflated and wanting to go back to my dream to see how it ends. “What are you doing here?”
     
    Her eyes narrow at me. “Way to welcome the love of your life. God Kayden, you can be such an asshole sometimes.”
     
    I sigh and put on my plastic smile. “Sorry, I’m just tired. Between school and practice, I
