“Yeah, thanks for fucking pointing that out.” His hands go to his head in exasperation, sighing out a breath. “I’m so fucked.”

“Welp.” I settle back into the chair and cross my legs, the emotion slowly dissipating from my steadying limbs. “Sounds like you should be better at your job.”

“Wow, that’s fuckin rude.” His arms fall to the side, his attention diverting away from me. It’s silent for a beat, then he touches the breast pocket on his tee and speaks again. “Affirmative, threat contained.”

“Ohh, am I the threat?” My attempt at charming my way out of this situation is dismissed with a hand wave that only causes me to giggle.

I didn’t assault anyone. They don’t have anything on me.

Maybe trespassing since I wasn’t invited.

“Let’s go, lady.” Fingers wrap around my bicep. I’m manhandled out of the chair and out into the hall. “You are a pain in the ass.” Tiny pushes us through another crowd of people on the main floor and back out the main entrance, right past the spot I fooled him in, his post taken up by someone else.

Someone bigger and scarier with hawk eyes that follow us out the door.

“You’rea fucking pain in the ass!” I refute, jerking my limb from his grasp, my hair flying and the movement causing me to stumble across the sidewalk.

“Oh, c’mon!ME?”He points to his swollen pecs. “Me? Get the fuck out of here.” Tiny throws his arm in the opposite direction of the arcade, emphasizing his words and showing me the direction he really wishes I would go.

But I don’t.

Why, you ask?

Because fuck you. That’s why.

I woke up and chose violence today. Welcome to the shitshow.

“Poor baby get yelled at?” I back up a foot when he steps toward me in a sad attempt at intimidation.

It’s just too much fun to know how far under his fucking skin I am.

“No,” He grinds his teeth, preparing to snap at me with literal teeth to skin. “Docked my fucking pay.” He steps in close, his chest to my nose, his beefy arm stiffly reminding me where to fuck off to.

Oh. Shit. They can do that?

“Wait. Doesn’t the band pay for you? They docked it?” Tiny hangs his head and lets out a heady, ‘annoyed with me’ breath.

“None of your fucking business, lady. Now off you go.” Palms to my shoulders, Tiny spins me to face away from him and pushes at my shoulders until I stumble forward.

“Rex is a dick to do that to you!” I shout over my shoulder as I slowly step away from the situation.

“Wasn’t him!” Tiny shouts back, but by the time I spin around to question him, he’s gone. I watch as his broad shoulders disappear into the sea of people that part for him, making way for his girth and leaving a gaping hole in his wake.

But I wasn’t prepared for what Tiny exposed.

Left in his trail stands fucking Finland “Fin” Montgomery among the masses.

Over six and a half feet of tall, dark, and handsome, Fin sticks out like a sore fucking thumb.

Greatest guitarist of all time. Hall of fame inductee. Former high school crush of mine.

Fuck. Me.

His eyes latch onto mine, his stony expression boring into my very soul and cementing me in place.

All boldness leaves me, shock taking its place as I take him in.

The years have done him well, Fin’s body more filled in than I recall. Not quite as big as Tiny, but not small in any form of the word.
