Chapter Thirty Three
Blair
That night, I end up sleeping alone, but around 2AM I wake up screaming from nightmares. Asher, Bray, and Cyrus rush in, and I cover my face in embarrassment.
“Are you okay?” Asher asks softly, reaching for my arm, but I flinch, and he pulls away looking sad, so I drop my hands and grab his, squeezing with a small smile.
“Baby girl,” Cyrus murmurs, and I drag my gaze to him.
“I’m fine, just a bad dream...sorry,” I offer lamely.
“You don’t have them when I sleep with you. Hey, I meant sleep beside her, nothing else,” Bray explains when Cyrus smacks him.
“I’m fine—” I start, but it’s too late.
As if Bray’s words were all the permission they needed, they climb into bed. Asher draws me into his arms, Bray lies between my legs as they push me back, and Cyrus reclines by my side with his back to the door to protect me, reaching for my hand under the covers and holding it tightly.
Reassuringly.
“Sleep,” he orders, and despite the protests on my lips, I do. I fall deeply asleep, safe in their arms, with no more nightmares.
I only wake up because I forgot to turn my phone on silent and it’s ringing. Reaching out blindly, warm and content, I manage to smack it on the nightstand and grab it. Forcing one eye open, I hit accept, realising it’s FaceTime too late.
Faye’s bright, made-up face comes on screen, and she laughs. “Still in bed? Lazy bitch.”
I groan and flip onto my back, and then I blink when a heavy weight settles on my waist. Crew. Shit. I lift the covers, and Faye’s voice fades as I see a tanned arm wrapped around my waist. Next to me is Bray’s half-asleep face.
“Who is it? It’s too early,” he grumbles.
“Wait... Is that Bray?” Faye squeals and I wince, pulling my face from the phone.
“Yes,” I mutter and tilt the phone down to show her. He lifts his hand and waves before dropping it to the bed with a thud. “You okay?” I ask, wondering why she’s calling so early, but then I realise it’s 2PM and I must have slept all day. The others must have woken up and left already, but as usual, I can’t get rid of my pervy shadow.
“I’m fine, just on my break at work. You working tonight?” she queries.
“Erm, what day is it?” I ask, and she laughs but doesn’t answer, even as I try to remember what today is and what I need to be doing, but my brain is slow, sleepy.
“Wanna do something tonight? I’m working a double, so we could meet after.”
“Sure thing, just text me a reminder so I can see it after I’ve had coffee,” I say, yawning, as she laughs harder. Bray groans, sits up, and blinks the sleep from his eyes.
“Women, it is too early—”
“It’s nearly two,” I tell him with an arched brow.
He scrubs at his hair, his nose wrinkling as he sighs. “Fine,” he mumbles, and I smile at Faye.
“Have something particular in mind?”
“Anything. We could go drinking, see a movie,” she starts, winding Bray up on purpose now, easily falling into our usual routine.
“Time for Blair to go. You woke me up, and now I’ve got a hard issue she needs to deal with,” he teases, blowing her a kiss as she laughs and hangs up.
“Hey!” I protest, but my phone is tossed to the side, my body is dragged down the bed, and his lips are on mine. This ‘hard issue’ presses against my pussy as I part my thighs and wrap them around his waist. I groan into his mouth, and he swallows the sound before pulling away.
“Good afternoon, Darling.” He grins. “Want to start the day with a bang?”
“Now that’s an offer I can’t refuse,” I retort, dragging him back down. Our lips crash together as I rub against him, and he starts to pull my shirt up just as my phone rings again.
