I shook my head. “I will never regret it. They’ve given me something here that I don’t think I would’ve ever gotten anywhere else. I love the club.”
“You’re different than the other girls.” She laughed. “They get angry when one of the guys blows them off to spend time with me.”
“Some of the girls are here for the wrong reasons. They’re lazy bitches that don’t want to do anything for themselves but want the power and authority that comes with being claimed and labeled an Old Lady.” I laughed. “But the reality is, that’s not what these guys are looking for, not from a club whore anyway.”
She smirked. “Oh yeah, then what do you call you and Optimus? I heard Lou Lou telling Sammy that he took her to his room the other night and wouldn’t even touch her.”
I tried to hide my surprise.
So it was all just an act.
She nudged me in the side and grinned. “She said it was because of you.”
“Honestly, there’s just some things about these men I’ll never understand.” I huffed, falling back on the bed dramatically.
Her giggles filled the room, the sound so addictive I couldn’t help but laugh with her.
“So, what’s the deal with you, Slider, and Leo?” I asked as I gave her a friendly shove.
She sighed and fell backward on the bed next to me. “They’re great. Slider makes me laugh so much I feel like I’m gonna pee my pants. And Leo, he’s just …”
“Sexy, hunky, strong, sweet?” I offered.
“Tick, tick, tick and tick,” she said, doing the ticks in the air with her finger. “And that little girl of his. Geez, my heart melts.”
“Sounds like someone has it bad,” I said in a sing-song voice.
“You don’t know the half of it,” she groaned.
I glanced over my shoulder, checking the time on the clock. “Well, will you look at that, it’s past mid-day. That means we can get a drink.” I threw myself off the bed, grabbing Andie’s hand and pulling her with me.
She laughed. “It’s only 3:00 p.m.”
“I’ll bet we aren’t the first at the bar,” I said pulling her from the room and down the hall. I’m not sure why but the brothers had a very strict no alcohol until after twelve policy unless it was a special occasion or you’re just really desperate. I guess the boys had to be kept sober for a least a few hours of the day. I wiggled my eyebrows at Andie when we got to the bar and found Wrench already there with Kev at his side and Sammy in his lap. They all had a bottle of beer in their hands and some music played softly in the background.
“Told you,” I said to her before yelling at the prospect tending the bar. “Neil! I need a drink!”
“Uh, sure. What do you want?”
Kev scoffed and I turned to him. “How long as he been here and he still doesn’t know what I drink?”
Kev reached out and wrapped his arm around my neck, pulling me into his side. He shook his head like he was severely disappointed. “The kid is a few colors short of a rainbow. He ain’t ever gonna get it right.”
“Whiskey.” The deep voice sent vibrations through me that went straight to lady parts. Kev’s arm released me so fast I nearly lost my balance.
“Sure, Prez,” Neil stumbled, racing to get a glass and the bottle for his president.
“Not for me you half-wit. That’s what she drinks. Learn it. Fast.”
Neil nodded profusely, spilling the amber liquid on the bar top as he poured and slid the glass over to me. “There you go, Chel.”
I threw back the whole glass before turning to get a good look at the man standing behind me, the man who’s mere presence threw my world completely off-kilter—or was that the alcohol? Right now, I couldn’t tell. He stared me down, his eyes drilling through my defenses.
“You’re back.” Were the only words he uttered.
Andie took up a conversation with the others quickly, moving out of the tense atmosphere that we had created.
“Yeah, I got in about an hour ago.”
