“Nope,” Saint, Crue and I all reply in unison, her jaw slackens as she looks from me to them.
“Seriously?” Katie asks.
Crue nods. “No guy wants another guy to know what his girl looks like naked. Would you want another girl knowing what mine and Saint’s dicks looked like?”
“Oh shit,” Leah breathes out, garnering the three of their attention. She smiles at her friend who looks distraught which confuses the fuck out of me.
“Not a freaking word!” Katie warns. Leah laughs and pretends to zip her lips and throw away the key.
“What the fuck was that?” Saint asks. I shrug as I look to Leah who looks like she is about to burst if she doesn’t spit whatever it is out.
“Don’t do it,” Katie says in a stern voice, now I have to know. I run my hand up my girl’s legs suggestively.
“I’ll make you come.” Four little words and she spills the beans just like I knew she would.
“Fine! That was the first time one of them has admitted that they’reallsleeping together,” she says it all so fast she’s breathless and gasping for air.
“Uh, babe, everyone knew they were,” I say.
She rolls her eyes. “Men, it’s not official until it’s said aloud, duh.” The sound of a door opening upstairs draws all our attention to Corvin and Cody making their way downstairs. Corv is wearing a pair of shorts and Cody is in one of his shirts, red faced and smirking. They just fucked for sure. “That’s nasty,” Leah says the second she spots her brother. He shoots her a glare.
“I can’t even look at you,” he says in disgust, forcing me to turn away so he can’t see my smile.
“Uh, why?” she asks, genuinely confused.
“Seriously?” Corvin snaps as he makes his way toward the other sofa with the rest of the crew following him. Cody drops down beside him while Saint, Crue and Katie take the bean bags. Leah looks to me. I take pity on my girl and lean over toward her to whisper.
“You were screaming my name loud enough for the neighbors to hear.” I expect her to blush, cover her face or run from the room but what I don’t expect is for her to laugh and point at her brother.
“Payback, fucker,” she says through her laughter, which just causes everyone but Corvin to laugh along with her.
“Next ball I throw is aimed right at your dick, asshole,” he spits at me, causing us all to laugh harder. Fuck, this feels good to be able to laugh with him and have no secrets between us. We all settle into comfortable silence as we watch the stupid show the girls all seem to enjoy. Beck comes ambling into the room halfway through the first episode. Leah sits up and pats the spot beside her. He drops down, smiling at her. She switches around so her feet are on his lap and her head rests on mine.
Good call, baby, I think to myself. If her head had of been on his lap, I would have smacked her ass right here in front of everyone. By the time the third episode rolls around, Leah is fast asleep and Cody is crashed out, snuggled into Corvin’s side. I look down at the three on the floor and see Katie sleeping in Saint’s arms while holding Crue’s hand.
“I kind of feel bad,” Corvin says to no one in particular.
“About what?” Crue asks.
“Beck’s the only one not getting any action.” I snort out a laugh and try to mask it by coughing. “I mean, Nathan is asleep upstairs,” Corvin tacks on, earning a dry stare from Beck.
“Don’t worry about me. I’m still sated from my recent action with Darius and a certain someone.” The smile drops straight off Corvin’s face, I’ll admit I have to fight to keep from laughing because Beck just bummed Corvin right the fuck out.
“Dick move, asshole,” Corv mutters. Saint grabs the remote and switches the channel. The rest of us mutter our thanks. The only reason I watch that shit is because of Leah. Saint pauses his channel surfing when we spot a picture of Garrett being displayed on the news.
“Turn it up,” Beck orders.
‘Local homicide case has now been closed. Police have arrested the culprit who will be remanded in custody awaiting trial early next week. Garrett Jones family have said they don’t understand how this could have happened, their son was loved and adored amongst his peers.’All of us mutter about how full of shit they are. Garrett wasn’t liked by anyone.‘It’s shocked the entire community to find out–’The reporter stops speaking and presses on the earpiece in her ear, her eyes widen a second before she faces the camera again.‘I’ve just been notified of the identity of the alleged suspect.’ My eyes pop open so wide that they begin to water when a picture of Victor is plastered on the screen. ‘Business mogul, Victor Hayes is now in police custody. Casey is live outside the station, over to you Casey.’
Another woman appears on camera out in front of the local police station where we can see Victor in handcuffs being led inside by four officers.‘Yes, Maddie. I’m here as officers lead Victor Hayes inside to process him. We have been informed that an eyewitness came forward with video evidence of Mr. Hayes at the site where Garrett Jones’s remains were located. Police also found other evidence linking Mr. Hayes to the murder–’
Saint puts the TV on mute, cutting off whatever else the reporter had to say. I sit here staring at the TV but not really seeing anything as my mind reels with what I just learned. Victor is going to jail for Garrett’s murder. Victor was nowhere near that frat house last week.
“Darius!” I shake my head and turn to Corvin who looks slightly concerned. “You good?” I don’t know how the hell I’m supposed to answer that. Do I care that he’s in jail? I think about that for a second… No, I don’t care what happens to that piece of shit but how the hell did he get convicted?
“Say something,” Saint urges me.
“I don’t know what to say,” I utter quietly. I can feel all their gazes on me and something inside me says there is one person responsible for this. Slowly I turn to face Beckett, who has a blank stare plastered on his face. “How?”
