Chapter 16

Brax's Point of view

She kissed me! She was feeling this as much as I was! Who cares if she was a cop, I wanted her and I wanted her bad! The next day before heading off to work I cleaned up after the party and went for a surf. Taking off my shirt I looked out towards the ocean only to see Charlie looking mighty fine in a brown bikini walking out of the waves towards a towel a little further away from mine. I watched as she swept her long dark hair over her shoulder and her hips swinging in time with her walk. "Nice morning for it" I commented. She just looked at me blankly before wrapping a towel around herself and started to walk away.

"Hey…wait up! I want to talk to you about what happened at the station yesterday…I'm sorry I snapped at you, but he's my brother" I explained.

"No need to explain to me" She replied bluntly.

"Ok then, well can we talk about what happened last night?" I asked confused.

"I have no idea what you're talking about" She shook her head and started to walk off. I grabbed her hand and laced my fingers between hers. Both our eyes looked at our connected hands before trailing up towards each others face.

"Yes you do" I smirked, pulling her towards me. She pulled away quickly.

"Just leave me alone!" She snapped before storming off. Fine, if that's the game she wanted to play then she was going to have a lot of competition.

Charlie's Point of view

I got home and stood in the kitchen trying to comprehend what I had gotten myself into. Why did I kiss him? I pretty much gave him the ok, that it was fine to flirt with me and that I liked him! "What's up with you?" Bianca scared me as she walked out of the hallway.

"Nothing!" I snapped before pouring myself coffee.

"This wouldn't happen to have anything to do with Brax…cause as you know I was in Heath's room last night and I heard you and him talking in the kitchen" She smirked at me knowingly.

"What ever Bianca" I laughed, calling her bluff.

"… 'Can you feel this as much as I can?'…" She tried to imitate Brax's manly voice. I couldn't help but laugh. "I was close though" She also laughed.

"I kissed him Bianca…I gave him exactly what he wanted!" I sighed before taking a sip of coffee.

"A little taste couldn't hurt!" She smirked before walking into the bathroom. If only he could see it that way.

Brax's Point of View

After my confrontation with Charlie I went for my surf and headed up to Angelo's. Sunday's weren't very busy so I managed to get a heap of bookwork done before headed downstairs to pay John Palmer the rent. "Ah Hey Case…Ruby" I ran into Casey and Ruby hanging around at the pool table. "Actually Rubes…do you know where I can find Charlie?" I asked curiously.

"She's in the gym actually…but she's in a really weird mood" Ruby shrugged her shoulders. I headed into the gym and seen Charlie on the treadmill. She seen me before quickly putting in her headphones. I got in front of her and turned off the machine before pulling out her earphones.

"Pretty sure I said I wasn't up for any of your games" I said to her seriously.

"I'm not playing games…I was happily having a gym sesh until you showed up!" She stormed out.

"Can we just talk about what happened last night?" I followed her. She continued ignoring me before rolling her eyes and jogging off. Fucking hell, she was starting to piss me off! The day continued on with work and Charlie ignoring me or avoiding me if we ran into each other. She even cancelled her order at the diner as soon as I walked in! The night shift at Angelo's was pretty quite so I decided to close a little early and head home, but not before I stopped in at Charlie's! I was so sick of her ignoring me. I needed to talk about what happened last night. I quickly ran to the front door of her house and knocked on the door hard. "Hey Brax…" Bianca opened the door before I cut her off.

"I need to talk to you!" I stormed in and pointed at Charlie as April and Ruby looked at me wide eyed.

"Can this wait til tomorrow?" She also looked at me in shock before walking into her room.

"No Charlie we need to talk about this now" I followed her.

"Fine…let's go for a drive!" She grabbed a cardigan and walked out with me hot on her trail. We drove in silence until we finally got to the lighthouse and I stopped the car.

"What happened last night Charlie?" I asked, breaking the silence.

"Nothing happened Brax…I was just messing about…'Playing games' as you put it. I just wanted to see how far I could push your buttons." She yelled.

"Nothing…well it didn't feel like nothing to me!" I grabbed her chin and made her look at me. "Look into my eyes and tell me you don't feel this connection between us" I stared into her amazing eyes. She shook her head before attaching her lips to mine and kissing me passionately. Our tongues fought for dominance as she quickly got out of her seat and crawled over so she was straddling my lap.

"Make sure the hand break is on" She mumbled against my lips as the kiss got deeper and deeper until eventually my hand had wandered up the front of her shirt and was massaging one of her breasts. She broke away and looked at me wide eyed before noticing my hand and bursting into laughter. I pulled away quickly and smiled.

"What?" I asked with a chuckle. Her smile faded as she placed her lips against my ear.

"Brax as long as I'm a cop in this town nothing will be happening between us so just hold onto that little boob fondle you just got, cause it's the last you'll get." She said seriously before pulling away and looking into my eyes seriously.

"Not if I have anything to do about it" My hand shot up her shirt again.

"Brax, seriously stop! I was messing with you and just like every other man, you took the bait! Now can you take me home please!" She pushed my hand away before sitting back in her seat.

"Fine" I snapped back before putting my seatbelt on and speeding off angrily.
