Locked with Him Read Online Free

have sex right under the librarian's noses."
    "Is it true?"
    As I was about to answer, my foot stepped into nothingness. Instead of landing on hard stone, it fell through the air. My arms flailed. I couldn't even see the railing to grab onto it.
    It was a long way down these stairs. I wondered if I would be tumbling all the way to the bottom. How long would it take for an ambulance to find me?
    Then my body jerked backwards. Arms circled my waist and pulled me close. They held me so tight that it was difficult to breathe. For a while, we just stood there. My body was too shaken from the possibility of what could've happened to do anything else.
    When Matt's arms relaxed their hold on me, I started to walk down the stairs again.
    "Thanks for-"
    Before I could finish, his lips were on mine. They pressed against my mouth insistently, flooding me with their warmth. Matt's hands buried into my hair and pulled my head towards him.
    I could feel the tension in his muscles. Pressed against him in the dark, all I could focus on were these sensations. The wet, warmness of Matt's mouth. The hardness of his body. The smell of his cologne lingering on his skin.
    It wasn't until Matt's hand creeped under my sweater and over my breasts that the spell was broken. I pushed away from him.  
    My legs started moving before I even knew where I was going. Even in the dark, they seemed to have a mind of their own. Where was I headed? I didn't know. Away from him.
    I wasn't that kind of girl. Not the kind of girl to let a guy grope her in the middle of the library. Not the kind of girl to do that with a complete stranger . Even if he was handsome, and nice, and liked books.
    What did I know? Maybe Matt thought black girls were easy. Maybe he thought I was an easy score. And who would know? He would disappear after the blizzard and I'd never see him again. He'd tell his friends about the librarian he banged during the storm.
    Tears poured down my face in hot streams. They filled my eyes and obscured my vision, not that I could see much anyway.
    Finally, I made it. My legs gave out and I slumped to the floor. Even without looking, I could tell where I was. Rare Books: Mythology. My favorite section.
    I wrapped my arms around myself. It was stupid. Everything that had happened was his fault. He made us stay late. He trapped us here.
    But still, even though I didn't want to admit it, I was falling for him. I shivered in the darkness. Somehow it felt even colder than it had before. Had we lost heating too? Just how long would I last stuck in here with no electricity, no food, and no heat? I would be a popsicle before I got out.
    Oh well. At least I was surrounded by books.
    Something rustled in the darkness.
    "Penelope?"
    A bright light cut through the shadows. It searched left and right, and then trained on me.
    "There you are," Matt said. "I was afraid something had happened to you."
    Quickly, I wiped the tears off of my face. "Go away."
    "Penelope, I –"
    "Go away!" I yelled. "I'm not going to fuck you so that you can brag to your friends after this is all over!"
    The next thing I heard was the flashlight clattering on the ground. I was surrounded by Matt's warmth again. He pulled me into a deep hug and pressed a kiss against my forehead.
    "Is that what you thought it was about?" Matt asked. The deepness of his voice seemed to rumble though my body.  
    " Of course I want to brag about you to my friends," he said.
    I moved to punch him, but his arms kept me still.
    "But that's not why I kissed you," he said. "I kissed you because I knew that I wanted to from the moment you peeked over my shoulder."
    Matt's hand came to me cheek and he wiped away a stray tear.
    "Now, since we're all alone here, and the heat is out, why don't we keep each other warm?"
    "That's a terrible line," I said.
    "I know, but you like it."
    Matt's lips caught mine again, but this time it felt different. My lips parted for him, letting his hot tongue explore my mouth. This time I
