hadn’t had an orgasm in a long time, so I was embarrassingly close. But I couldn’t come in front of all my friends. Could I?
“Why are you doing this?” I managed to whisper. Not only was I curious, but I was also hoping to distract my body from exploding at the slightest touch.
“This is what you wanted. What you asked me for.”
“But you said no.”
Griffin nipped my ear. “I did no such thing.”
I replayed the scene in my head. He wasn’t wrong. He hadn’t actually told me no.
“It was implied,” I said.
He nipped me again. “Stop thinking. This will be the orgasm that’s so good that you don’t care where you are.” He repeatedly tapped his thumb against my clit, and I knew there was no more holding back. “Come now, Madeline. I’ve got you.”
I let my head fall back against his shoulder and momentarily forgot about my friends, the other customers, and the fact that we were sitting in Griffin’s bar.
My orgasm started between my legs and fanned out until it reached the top of my head and the tips of my toes. It tingled all over and felt like a white-hot heat passing through me.
God, it felt incredible.
I had indeed not cared where I was because all of a sudden, I heard voices and music again.
“Is Madeline okay?”
I didn’t even bother lifting my head.
“I think she’s tired,” Griffin said, his fingers still inside me.
He slowly withdrew them, and I immediately felt empty.
Taking a deep breath, I looked up at my friends. “Griff’s right. I’m spent, and I think I need to call it a night.”
My best friend chuckled beside me and pulled his hand out from under my skirt.
At that moment, Mitch came over with another round of drinks.
After he set them on the table, I looked at Griffin. “I’m done drinking. I’d rather go upstairs and go to bed.”
The corner of his mouth turned up. “As long as you understand that you won’t be sleeping. We still have that leg-shaking orgasm we need to work on,” he said, his words only for me.

I gently took Madeline’s leg off mine and exited the booth.
“Feel free to finish my beer,” I told Troy, Christina, April, and JJ. “I’m going to take the birthday girl upstairs and put her to bed.”
“That’s so cute. Are you going to tuck her in too?” Christina asked.
“Something like that,” I muttered.
Madeline kicked me in the leg. “You can drink mine too,” she said as she stood.
The two of us said good-bye to our friends and headed for the back stairs up to my apartment.
As soon as the bottom door was closed, I grabbed her hand and started pulling her up behind me.
She laughed. “Wow. Someone seems awfully excited.”
I didn’t comment because I thought she already knew the answer.
When Madeline had told me what she wanted me to give her for her birthday earlier tonight, my sexual arousal had gone from zero to sixty in two seconds. My dick got so hard, I had to step away from her.
Honestly, I was a little afraid that I might say, Fuck it, to the crowded bar and take her right then and there.
Thankfully, I pulled myself together at the last second and concluded that maybe that particular moment was not the right one to give Madeline her birthday present.
The bad part was, she thought I had rejected her. I hadn’t. I’d just needed to process the whole thing. I mean, the two of us in all our years as friends had never even kissed.
Speaking of which…
We reached my apartment door, so I tugged her close and pushed her up against the wall.
Her breath caught, and her brown eyes widened. “What are you doing?”
“I realized I still haven’t kissed you.” I cupped both her cheeks as I leaned down and slanted my mouth over hers.
Without any hesitation, she opened for me, and it was Madeline who wrapped her tongue around mine first as she fisted my shirt.
Being best friends, the two of us had discussed our sex lives quite regularly, so I knew she wasn’t shy in bed and that she liked to fuck. But to actually experience her openness and eagerness in action was a whole other animal.
I still had the residual feeling of her contracting around my fingers downstairs in the booth. I wasn’t going to forget that for as long as I lived.
The fact that I had given my best friend an orgasm in front of everyone like that seemed surreal. I hadn’t actually intended
