“Come on,” I whisper against her lips when I pull back a little. “Let’s show them what you’re made of.”
Every set of eyes follows us as we make our way toward the school building but no one really says anything, they just watch with fascination.
They could all be thinking one of a million things. Most of them I would agree with. I’m not good enough for Remi. I’m fully aware of that, but it’s not going to stop me trying to prove my worth.
It seems that while we were both away, Conner and Cole did a stellar job of keeping the pack tamed, because no one says anything untoward. It’s the total opposite; when we do make it to the doors, someone actually holds one open for us and says hello.
Remi rears back a little at the simple greeting as if she’s expecting a punch to follow, but it never does. Whoever the girl is just smiles sweetly and allows us to continue inside.
The same thing happens a few more times before Remi turns to me. “What the hell is going on?”
“I have no idea. Conner’s probably been telling everyone that I’ll shank them in their sleep if they’re not nice to you or something.”
“There’s something wrong with him. You are aware of that, right?”
I can’t help but laugh. “Yeah, I’m pretty sure he was dropped on his head as a baby. Dad used to…”
“We really need to talk to James. Get everything out in the open and get you the answers you need.”
I swallow down the dread that thoughts of doing so drag up. I really don’t want to sit down and have a heart to heart with the man who helped ruin my life. But if Remi thinks it’ll help, then I’ll do it for her.
Coming to a stop at her locker, I pin her against it with my hips.
“Jesus, Ace,” she groans when my length presses against her hip. “You really should have let me—” I cut her words off with my lips, taking the only thing I’ll allow for myself right now.
“Well, I guess this explains the rejection of our ride to school this morning,” a familiar voice says behind me.
“Fuck off. We’re busy,” I grunt as I kiss along Remi’s jaw.
“How the fuck did you make this happen, bro? You got some tricks we don’t know about, because I don’t know about this one here but I sure could use some pus—ow,” Conner complains, I can only assume as Cole hits him.
“Shut the fuck up. Remi doesn't need to know anything about your
cock.”
“Hey, you were the one who brought it up. If she’s thinking about how much bigger it is than Ace’s then it’s your fault, not mine.”
“Will the two of you shut the fuck up? We talked—”
“Yeah, right,” Conner snorts, but we all ignore him.
“We talked and—”
“He told me the truth,” Remi interjects. “Ace wasn’t the one who played the tape. But don’t worry, I’ll make him pay for ever thinking he could record it in the first place.” Running her hands up my chest she stops when she gets to my nipple and twists it hard.
“Ow, Princess.”
“Payback,” she smiles sweetly. “Plenty more where that came from. Now, if you’ll excuse me. I need to get to class.”
She grabs her books from her locker before turning to look at me once again.
“I think that’s your cue to walk her to class, bro. See if you can sweet talk her into giving you your balls back on the way, eh?”
We all ignore Conner and walk away.
Remi might hold my hand and walk beside me like she belongs there, but I can tell that she’s still got reservations about this, about going public so soon. I guess when you’re used to being at the center of the school gossip, whether you deserve it or not, it can get a little tiring.
“We’re almost at her classroom door when Michaela flounces into the hallway, wearing her usual cheer uniform. Her steps falter when her eyes land on the two of us together. Her face goes beet red as she takes in our joined hands.
