“Fuck yes,” Bull slams his fist down on his thick leg, his grin so broad it wrinkles even his shaved scalp.
SHIT.
I push myself off the wall.
These men, these are the only people I trust with my life.
But right now, I want to punch each one of them in the face.
We served in the Army together. Snake was a sniper, keen, sharp, and laser focused. Bull was Special Forces, when he fixated on his mission, there was no stopping him. Gringo and I were PSYOPS. They taught us how to fuck with your mind. Then The Program recruited us. When things got too ugly, I left for my own sanity and salvation. If there is a God, I hoped there’s still time left for me to cleanse the blood from my hands and my soul.
After some time of soul searching and being lost and trying to find a place I could be at peace, I came here to this small town, Riverbend, population twenty thousand, small enough to be quiet, big enough for me to melt into the cracks. I wanted to be left alone in a sea of strangers. The boys, Snake, Gringo, and Bull had their own battles to face after they got out of the service, and after the shit with The Program. We once again gravitated towards each other, found a place we could call home, and settled into small town life, but our way and on our terms. Right now it works, tomorrow, well, it’s not here yet.
Live for today, tomorrow will take care of itself, it’s not guaranteed.
Today, I want Summer.
I want her heat to burn me. Scorch me with her brightness. I’ll bring her into my darkness, let her walk amongst my shadows, there I’ll peel her layers and bare her soul.
I glare at the three of them as their eyes are fixed on me waiting for me to deny it.
I let out a heavy breath.
“She’s not like that, why can’t you get that through your thick skulls.” I try to deny it as I hedge around the truth.
“Come on, Rock, just admit it already. Say it, it’s easy, I LIKE SUMMER,” Gringo taunts me.
“Fuck you, asshole,” I push past him and shove him with my shoulder.
Snake laughs. “Alright, then let me ask you this, if I went over there and asked her out, knowing where it’ll end up if she says yes, are you gonna have a problem with that?”
I stop walking. I don’t turn around; I’m not going to let them see my face.
“Rock. Are. You. Going to have a problem with that?” Snake persists.
Why do they want her? Why her? There are so many other broads that come in here, that they see outside of here, why fucking her?
The same reason you want her, dumb ass.
She’s untouchable, wild yet reserved, untamed yet poised. She’s beautiful. She’s unspoiled.
We should all leave her alone. Even me.
Especially me.
Images of Summer sprawled out naked with Snakes, Gringos and Bulls cocks in every one of her openings pisses me off.
And it turns me on.
I want to dirty the fuck out of her.
“Yes,” the word finally pushes out between clenched teeth. “Yes, I would have a problem with that.”
Son-of-a-bitch, what did I just do?
Snake slaps my back, “She’s off limits then. We’ll respect that, all of us, right?” he turns to look at Gringo and Bull.
“Yeah, we will,” Gringo agrees with a devilish gleam in his eye.
