Spin the Bottle (Campus Games, #2)

by Stephanie Alves

This is for all my big girls who think they don’t deserve love. Yes, we fucking do.

“I’ve got to say, even though you seem to despise me for some reason,” he glances up at me, “I always seem to have a good time whenever you’re near.” A full glass of beer gets placed in front of me. “You’re a masochist, huh?” I ask, taking a sip. “You like when people torture you?” He laughs. “If torture is anything like you, then hell yes.”

“You seem to have options.” I eye him, seeing if he’ll catch on. He smiles, nodding. “I have many.” Well shit. At least he knows it. “Too bad the one girl I seem to want is hellbent on denying there’s any attraction between us.”

“The only lips I’ve tasted since are yours.” I shake my head, unable to believe what he’s telling me. “How is that even possible? You get so much attention every day. Did you even see the group of girls around you out there?” I ask, gesturing towards the door. “I saw them,” he says with a lift of his shoulder. “But it was you I couldn’t keep my eyes off of. I don’t want anyone’s attention but yours.”

“I swear to god, Leila. If you’ve been malnourishing your body because you want to lose weight, I’m going to fucking lose it.”

“I wish you could see yourself how I see you,” I tell her, staring into her eyes. “You’re so beautiful, sexy as hell,” I punctuate my sentence with a kiss. “And you’ve quickly become my favorite person to be around.”

I’m not above begging. I’ll crawl on the ground and beg for that girl if that’s what it takes.

“You deserve so much more than just fine, Leila.” Those intoxicating blue eyes bring me a kind of peace whenever he looks at me. “You deserve everything.”

“Aiden. Put me down.” “No fucking way.” I love having her in my arms. “I’m heavy.” I let out a snort. She clearly hasn’t seen what I can do at the gym. “Leila, give me some credit. It’s not my fault you were with weak-ass boys before me.”

“Every girl in this school wants you,” I tell him. “I can’t compete with that.” “There is no competition,” he says, taking a step closer. “You win every time.”

“I would give it all up if it meant I could have you.” My god, this man is breaking my heart. “You could never be a mistake.”
