SWNOVELS Chapter Billionaire My Husband 322
DISTRACTION
JOSH
I walked into school feeling like I'd slept with my head in a vice grip. Every sound, every slam of a locker, and every laugh grated against my nerves like nails on a chalkboard. My thoughts spun in circles, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't stop them from circling back to Laura.
Laura, with her paint-splattered T-shirts and oversized denim jackets, the kind of clothes that looked like she just threw them on without a second thought. The kind of clothes that should've made her blend in. Except, she didn't blend in. Not to me. Not anymore.
My chest tightened as I spotted her at her locker. She didn't notice me-or maybe she was pretending not to. She was laughing at something Jess said, her face lighting up in a way that made something twist inside me. All I could see was her in that satin purple dress from the party, the way it clung to her curves and shimmered under the lights. The way her skin had felt beneath my palm when I steadied her.
But then, just as quickly, the image of her in the dress was replaced by another memory. Her face after the fight with Tim. The way she flinched when I moved too fast.
"Fuck it," I muttered under my breath, slamming my locker shut. The sound echoed down the hall, loud enough to make Luke, who was standing next to me, freeze mid-conversation.

"What's up with you?" he asked, his tone cautious.
I gritted my teeth. "Nothing. Just not feeling today."
Luke nodded, leaning against the lockers. "Same. Feels like everyone's out of sync lately. You, me, even Britney's been all over the place."
Just then, as if summoned by the mention of her name, Britney appeared. She walked down the hallway like she owned it, her cheerleader uniform fitting just right, her blonde hair swept up in a high ponytail that bounced with every step. She spotted me immediately, her glossy lips curving into a flirtatious smile.
"Hey, Josh," she purred, her voice syrupy sweet. Before I could respond, her hand slid across my forearm, her nails lightly dragging against my skin. "You've been so hard to catch lately. Busy being the star quarterback, I guess?"
I shrugged, leaning back against the lockers. "Something like that."
Her eyes sparkled, and she stepped closer, so close I could smell her perfume-a little too sweet, like candy. "You know, I've been thinking we should hang out more. You never text me back, but I'll forgive you if you make it up to me."
I forced a smirk, even though my chest felt tight. Britney was easy. Predictable. The kind of girl who knew what she wanted and didn't hesitate to go after it. Maybe that's what I needed right now-something simple. Something that wouldn't leave me lying awake at night, replaying every word, every look, every flinch.
"Yeah?" I said, letting my voice drop just enough to make her

lean in closer. "What do you have in mind?"
Her lips parted in a coy smile, but I pushed off the lockers before she could answer and nodded toward the doors leading to the bleachers. "Let's go."
She blinked, surprised, but quickly recovered, her smile widening as she followed me outside. The cool air hit my face, but it did nothing to clear my head. Britney was talking about something- probably herself-but I wasn't really listening. My mind was still stuck on Laura. We reached the bleachers, and I turned toward Britney, my hands sliding to her waist as I pressed her against the wall. She gasped, her hands flying to my chest, but I didn't give her time to say anything. I kissed her hard and fast, hoping it would drown out the mess in my head. Her hands moved up to my shoulders, and she kissed me back eagerly, her lips soft and warm against mine. It should've been enough. It should've been exactly what I needed-a distraction. But it wasn't.
Because no matter how hard I tried or how much I wanted to lose myself in Britney's touch, my mind kept returning to Laura. The way she felt so small in my arms when I steadied her. Her eyes widened when she looked at me like she wasn't sure whether to trust me or run. The way her laugh sounded when she was with her friends was light and carefree as if she didn't have the weight of the world on her shoulders.
"Josh," Britney murmured against my lips, pulling me back to the present. Her hands slid down my arms, her nails grazing my skin. "You're tense. Relax."

I closed my eyes, focusing on the sensation of Britney's hand over my semi-hard cock and leaned back while she sank to her knees. I barely registered her, unzipping my pants and pulling my dick out. Both her hands circled my shaft and squeezed. "Is this making you feel better?" Britney breathed, but I didn't pen my eyes. I simply grunted my approval and dug my fingers into her hair, guiding her mouth towards my now fully erect cock, letting it rest in front of her full lips.
If I focused hard enough, I could imagine it was Laura wrapped around my tip, sucking and hollowing her cheeks. But it didn't matter; even with Britney giving me a blow job, I would be fucking my own hand tonight imagining it's Laura.
