I didn’t know what to do, how to help him, or how to exist in his complicated world.
His parents made me feel homicidal.
His siblings made me feel helpless.
His smoking friends at school made me feel uncomfortable.
And his friends from the terrace made me feel entirely unwelcome.
Especially that dickhead Shane Holland.
But I cared enough about him towanttostay.
“I’m grand,” he was quick to say, reaching up to remove my prying hand from his face. “I’mgrand, Molloy,” he repeated, pressing another hard kiss to my lips.
“Yuck, guys,” Shannon groaned from nearby. “Get a room.”
“Hey, Shan,” I said, repressing a shiver of pleasure when her brother slung his arm over my shoulder as we walked up the footpath towards the school entrance. “How was your weekend?”
“Hey, Aoife,” she replied with a small smile. “It was okay.”
Better than your brother’s I hope,I mentally replied, taking in the sight of her thankfully unmarked skin.
Slipping a hand into the back pocket of his grey school trousers, I gave his ass a little pinch, and then leaned into his side and resisted the urge to drag him into the bushes so that I could keep him safe – and get him naked.
"Keep on pinching my ass, Molloy, and I’ll have to retaliate," he said in a husky tone, lips brushing against my ear as he spoke. "I have behavioral problems, in case ya haven’t heard.”
“You know, I think I’ve heard that a time or ten.”
“According to my file, I can’t control myself when confronted with a physical altercation.”
“Is that so?”
“Yeah, that’s so.” Pulling me flush against his chest, I felt his hand slide up my bare thigh and under my skirt, not stopping until his fingers trailed over the hem of my knickers.
“Oh my god, you did not just do that!” Shannon wailed, covering her eyes with her hand.
“Ah fuck,” Joey declared with a dramatic sigh, as he pulled the elastic of my knickers and let it snap back into place. “Period knickers.”
I threw my head back and laughed at his forlorn expression. “How would you know anything about my period knickers?”
“Oh my god, you did not just… You know what…? Never mind. I’ll see you guys later,” Shannon groaned, as she clenched the straps of her school bag, and hurried away.
“Come on, Molloy,” he said with a lopsided grin. “You’ve worn granny knickers for a grand total of five days a month, every month since we’ve beenspecialfriends.” His voice was low and ridiculously sexy, as his eyes burned with heat. “I know this because those are the only five days each month that you won’t let me put my—“
“Okay, la-la-la, I get it. You’ve got my menstrual cycle down to a tee,” I laughed, clamping a hand over his mouth. “But I think that you’ve just scarred your sister for life in the process.”
“She’ll recover,” he replied, giving my ass a firm tap. “But I won’t.”
“It’s only for a few days.” I rolled my eyes. “Get a handle on yourself.”
“I’d prefer if you got a handle on me instead.” His hand gripped me tighter. “Again.”
“Okay, you’ve officially shamed me into silence.” My cheeks flushed bright pink. “You win this round.”
“Thanks.” Grinning, he caught a hold of my hand, and led us towards the main building. “I look forward to your comeback, Molloy.”
“Oh, you better believe it’s coming, Joe,” I replied, entwining my fingers with his.
