Groaning, I let Waylynn drag me over to the deck that was just a bit higher than the pool.
“Amelia, can I connect my phone to your Bluetooth speaker?” Waylynn yelled.
“Yes!” Amelia called out. She was now acting a bit tipsy, only because Corina had asked her how come she wasn’t feeling the drinks with how many she’d had. I played it safe and only had two drinks and mixed a lot of water in between, so no one questioned that I wasn’t feeling tipsy.
Waylynn wore a huge smile as the notes to Christina Aguilera’s “Dirrty” started playing.
“Get it, gurl!” Paxton yelled.
It didn’t take me long to get into the vibe of the song. As soon as Christina started singing, my hips started moving, and the dance moves instantly came back to me. I couldn’t believe I remembered it all from the music video.
I decided to have fun with it. It was just the girls and me, and for the first time in a long time, I was having fun.
Waylynn quickly joined me. Her body was amazing, and moved in perfect sync with mine. Of course, alcohol made her a little more brazen as she got super close, and I wasn’t sure if I should go along with it, but when Maebh and Amelia yelled out, I knew it was okay to let loose.
Soon we were for sure dirty dancing with each other. Waylynn even slapped my ass, making me laugh. It was nice to let myself get lost in the music and fun. Soon the rest of the girls were dancing with us.
Maebh was the only one not dancing, only because she had decided this needed to be recorded. Then her face dropped and her eyes looked past us and then quickly back to our little group. She made a little motion with her finger across her neck, as if saying we needed to stop. I turned and froze. Six men were watching us. My gaze landed on a set of blue eyes that had haunted my dreams for six years.
“Trevor,” I whispered.
“Holy fucking shit. That was the hottest damn thing I’ve ever seen,” Wade said before Mitchell smacked him on the head.
“That’s my wife you’re staring at, asshole,” Mitchell replied, making his way over to Corina and pulling her into his arms. “You’re doing that dance for me later tonight,” he whispered loudly to her.
My cheeks heated as I watched Wade walk over to Amelia and kiss her passionately.
I turned and made my way over to the chair that had my wrap on it. I could feel Trevor’s eyes on me. Burning into me.
“Hey, I feel like I was cheated since my girl was recording that!” Cord shouted, walking up to Maebh and gently kissing her lips. The way he looked at her, like she was his everything, made my stomach drop. They were adorable. I wanted a man to look at me like that.
“What’s Trevor doing here?” I asked, as Cord and Maebh came closer to me.
Cord cleared his throat and said, “My bike wouldn’t start, so he offered to give me a ride and take us home.”
I tried not to look his way, but I couldn’t help the pull. Whenever Trevor was around, it felt like I was a moth to a flame. He could both destroy me and give me life.
But when he started our way, I held my breath, quickly looking around for an escape. Maebh saw what I was doing and wrapped her arm around mine, keeping me rooted in place.
Walking up to me, Trevor smiled and my knees went weak. Damn it. Stop reacting to him, stupid, betraying body. “I remember that dance. A few of your friends did it at Brad’s party that one summer.”
Trevor had been there? I hadn’t even seen him at that party. He was probably off messing around with some girl.
“I didn’t know you were there,” I said, lifting my chin and trying to relay my thoughts to him with the power of my eyes.
“I only stopped by to get Amelia. I got there in time to see the dance, then dragged my sister away.”
Trying not to smile, I simply nodded.
His eyes traveled over my body, and I realized I still had my cover open. Trevor was looking at me greedily and I hated the way it made my lower stomach pull with desire.
“Do you need a ride home, Scarlett?” Cord asked.
When I glanced over at Wade and Amelia, they were lost in each other. Even though Amelia said they’d give me a ride home, I hated asking.
“I hate to bug Amelia.”
Cord hit Trevor on the shoulder, pulling his eyes off of me.
“Mind dropping off Scarlett?” Cord asked.
“Not at all,” Trevor replied, a crooked smile on his face.
I wanted to argue, but how else would I get home? I could call Eric, but I was beginning to depend on him a little too much and didn’t want to give him the wrong idea about our friendship. Maebh had already warned me Eric had feelings for me, even before we had become friends.
