“That was your—your—but I thought—you and Davey?”

I laugh. “Oh, we did. But I, well,didn’t. His reputation was not exactly correct on that front.”

“Seriously? What a jackass.”

I stare at him, right in the eyes.

“I’m glad it was you.”

He runs his hand over my hair, then gives me a soft kiss before his eyes meet mine again.

We’re staring at each other, eyes locked as if we’re reading each other’s souls.

I’ve never felt more vulnerable than this, but I’ve also never felt so safe.

We kiss a little more and wrap our arms around each other.

“So, what are we going to tell everyone?” I ask. “And when?”

He runs his fingers down my shoulder, sending shivers through my body.

“Depends on how much we want to fuck with them,” he says with a devilish grin.

I laugh and cuff his chest but then say, “Oh, I really want to fuck with them. Well… I’ll probably tell Sarah. Because it’s Sarah. But otherwise, we should totally fuck with them a bit before we tell them. We’ll figure out something good.”

“That sounds perfect. And fun,” he says, kissing my nose. “Anything to get a rise out of Joel.”

We both laugh, then he kisses me some more. “I love you, Beautiful.”

“I love you, too, Ace. Tonight was amazing.”

“Yes, it was.” He lets out a little sigh. “But I’ve got to go home now. If the parents found out I slept here without me telling them about us… that won’t go well.”

“Agreed. As long as I get to see you first thing tomorrow morning.”

He smiles seductively. “That’s a promise.” With a deep inhale, he gets up and puts his clothes on, then he gives me a long, slow kiss and climbs out the window.

I give a little wave as I shut and lock the window behind him, then close the curtains and fall back on my bed, sighing contentedly. Then I pull my knees up to my chest and squeal happily. I think this may have been the most amazing night of my life so far.

After a few more minutes of reveling in everything that happened, I head to the bathroom to clean up, then get dressed in some cozy pajamas. I’m sliding into bed when my door swings open.

Sarah leans against my door frame and cocks an eyebrow at me.

“What?” I ask. But I can’t hide the giant smile that’s creeping up my face.

“I thought I heard some… noisescomingfrom your room,” she says, flaring her eyes at me.

My smile gets even wider, and she quickly steps into the room, closes the door behind her, and grabs my arm, pulling me onto the bed.

“Tell. Me. Everything.”

I gush to her, telling her all thedirtydetails as she squeals with delight.

“Oh my god.”

“Yeah. It was…” I fall backward into my pillows, sighing dreamily.

“But you’re not telling everyone yet?”
