Wardrobe Malfunction
Page 35I laugh out loud.
Me: I’m sure your cock can manage one night without me, West.
Vaughn: Nope. I don’t think you realize the seriousness of this situation. I’ve had a boner all morning. I can’t stop thinking about those fucking boots you’re wearing and how good they’ll feel wrapped around my waist.
I look down at my boots. I didn’t even know they had an effect on him. Then, I smile, thinking that I’ll have to wear these boots more often.
Me: Tomorrow night? I’ll wear the boots and nothing else.
Vaughn: You’re killing me here. I’m gonna have to go jerk off in the bathroom.
Me: Aren’t you on set right now?
It’s a closed set today for some reason. I was told to take the clothes over and then leave. I don’t know what they’re filming, but they didn’t want many people there to watch.
My mind instantly goes to another sex scene, but they didn’t close the set for the one yesterday, and that was as explicit as I’ve ever seen, so it can’t be that. I’ll have to ask Vaughn when I see him. Tomorrow.
Sigh.
Vaughn: Yep. Just taking a break. In the bathroom. With my hand. Picturing you.
Me: Perv!
Vaughn: I don’t deny it. Then again, you could come here and give me a hand…
Me: Sounds like you’re doing just fine yourself.
Vaughn: I’m so hard, it hurts, baby.
Baby. What is it about a man calling you that, that makes you turn to jelly?
Vaughn: Not possible. But you can give it a try.
Me: I’m hemming a shirt. Using pins.
Vaughn: And it’s gone.
I laugh again and then send him a laughing emoji.
He pings back a text seconds later.
Vaughn: You’re fucking awesome. :)
Me: I know. :)
Vaughn: Babe…I have to go. I’m needed back on set.
A second later, I get another text from him.
Vaughn: Where are you going tonight anyway?
Me: Some new bar on Sunset Boulevard.
I don’t hear back from him again, and I’m guessing he turned off his phone to go back on set.
Ava turns back up a few minutes later with my sandwich and coffee. We sit and eat and talk about the night ahead of us. All the time, Vaughn is ever present in my thoughts.

The music is pumping out, and I’m having a great night. Originally, I was disappointed about not getting to spend it with Vaughn—I might be a little bit addicted already—but it’s so good to come and let loose. Ava is, as always, so much fun, and Logan is really great.
Calvin Harris and Rihanna’s “This Is What You Came For” starts to play. I love this song.
“Dance?” I say to them.
“Hell yeah!” Ava says.
“I’m not a dancer. I’ll watch the drinks,” Logan replies.
“You’re sure?” I check.
“Go dance, and have fun.”
I jump down from my stool and grab Ava’s hand. I lead her onto the dance floor and into the crowd. We start dancing.
It’s hot and crowded but amazing. I’m having so much fun.
The song eventually ends, and another comes on that’s not so good, so we head back to our table. Logan’s on his phone.
“Sexting?” Ava nudges him with her elbow.
“I wish. No, I’m checking Twitter to see what’s happening here.”
“Um, can’t you just look around,” I quip, “and see what’s happening?”
“There was a commotion upstairs, smart-ass, and I couldn’t see what was happening, hence checking Twitter for the deets.”
He points, and my eyes follow to look up at the upstairs balcony that circles the whole of the bar. But I can’t see much of anything.
“What kind of commotion?” Ava asks him.
“Oh, maybe there was a fight.” Ava grins.
“Yeah, probably.” Logan puts his phone down on the table. “I can’t see anything on Twitter. I thought maybe a celeb had arrived.”
“Like Ryan Gosling?” Ava asks.
“Now, that would be heaven. I swear, whose dick do I have to suck to get a job on one of his movie sets?” Logan chuckles, making us laugh.
“Probably his wife’s,” I joke.
Out of nowhere, I feel a tingle on the back of my neck. Then, voices around us seem to get louder. And I see a few people looking at the upper balcony. Others are pointing. A few are getting their cameras out.
“What is going on?” I ask.
“Celeb for sure,” Ava and Logan say at the same time. They laugh and fist-bump each other.
“Please be Gosling.” Logan presses his hands together, praying.
I swivel on my stool, looking around upstairs, and then I see him.
Vaughn.
He’s upstairs, leaning on the railing, bottle of beer in his hand, and he’s looking down…right at me.
His lips curve into a sexy smile.
It hits me right in the chest—and panties.
Then, he pushes off the railing and walks away.
