"Me too, girl. That's why I hooked up with a big ass football star who can throw me over his shoulder," Ava jokes, sticking her tongue out.
"Surely, that's not the only place he's throwing you around," I hear Riley call from somewhere behind us.
"God, Riles, you're such a fucking guy. Are you sure we have the same DNA?" snaps Harper, walking away from her sister and standing next to us.
We all start laughing. Even though Harper and Riley are twins and spend a lot of their time together, they're like chalk and cheese. Harper is sweet and girly, choosing to spend most of her time either reading or dancing. Riley is the wild child. She's loud, tomboyish and prefers to spend her time at concerts, festivals, or acquiring a new bed buddy.
Riley, Harper, and I climb into Nate's pickup. Tucker and Ava follow behind in his car. Less than five minutes later, we arrive at the old bowling alley in town.
"So, since you lost, drinks are on you," Tucker tells Nate.
"No, you cheated," Nate sulks.
"Children! Behave yourselves!" Ava scolds back.
"How about me and Izzy get the drinks and you guys get those disgusting clown shoes?" Ava suggests, shivering in disgust.
"And we'll reserve the alley," Harper offers, pulling her sister, who seems to be trying to flirt with the man behind the counter.
I order us all our usual drinks, not a single coffee in sight,thank God,and a couple of plates of fries to share. Then I go back to the rest of the group, who are all busy with their respective duties.
"The owner said it'll take about ten minutes to get the lanes ready because she's not expecting many customers today and lanes 2-5 are occupied by a club," Tucker informs us.
"That's fine. Let's play some pool," Nate shrugs.
"Three-on-three?"
"Actually, I'm going out for a smoke. You guys go ahead," Riley says, leaving.
"Since when does Riley smoke?" I ask, realizing I've never noticed before.
"I don't know, but our dad caught her after he found a lighter in her jeans pocket a few days ago. I don't know what's going on with her; she won't open up to me anymore," Harper confesses sadly. "I think I'll go check on her."
"Looks like it's just the four of us, girls versus guys," suggests Ava, as she begins to chalk up her pool cue.
"You might be better with Tucker, I suck. I haven't played pool since I was a kid. When Pops used to let me tag along with him and my cousins."
"All the more reason to practice," Ava says with a smile.
I try desperately to sink the balls, but I'm even worse than I remember. Ava gives me tips on how to hold the cue and how to hold my hand, so it slides through my fingers, but I'm still terrible.
"Here, let me show you," Nate says as he gets behind me and wraps his big, strong hands around mine, so he can guide me. I try to concentrate, but with him standing so close to me and breathing against my neck, I'm far more focused on controlling my own breathing and ignoring the heat pooling between my thighs. I feel my ass graze his front as I try to lean forward to reach the ball I'm aiming for. Thankfully, the buzzing of my cell phone in my back pocket interrupts me from the naughty thoughts invading my own head.
"Sorry, it's Nana, I'll be right back," I say, excusing myself and heading outside to speak with her privately.
"Hi honey, is this a good time to call?"
"Yes, it's fine, Nana. I'm not taking an exam."
"Oh good, I just wanted to see how you were doing. I know you were worried when you left for school this morning."
I start to tell her about my exam and how difficult I found it when suddenly I sense Nate behind me. I don't even need to turn around to see him because I can just feel him when he's nearby. I continue chatting, assuming he just came to see if I'm okay, when I feel him come up right behind me and start kissing my neck.
I try to move away as I'm clearly on the phone, but he holds me tighter. "You're not going anywhere," he whispers in my other ear. Causing heat to pool in my core.I love when he's bossy and takes control like this.I attempt to ignore him and focus on what Nana is saying, but my mind is too distracted. I try to pretend I'm listening and say, "Oh yeah," and "That's good," but I've no idea what she's actually talking about. I feel Nate pull me closer to him, and I can clearly feel he's hard against my butt. "Sorry Nana, I've gotta go. My next exam starts soon," I lie as I quickly put the phone away.
"TSK, TSK. You're lying to your sweet old Nana. What a naughty girl you are," Nate purrs in my ear as he squeezes me tightly with his other hand. "Looks like you might need to be punished…"
Next thing I know, he's pulling me around the corner of the building to an open door.That must be how he got out without me seeing him.
