Greyson is steps ahead of us, approaching the crowd gathered around the girls. I don’t miss the way Emerson’s blue hair flips over her shoulder to see who else is with Grey as he embraces Lottie.?
We finally lock eyes, and I send her a wink before finding a seat beside Ford around the fire pit. It’s been two weeks since the locker room. We’ve trained, we’ve flirted, we’ve talked shit… but we haven’t touched. Or at least not the way I want to. Not the way I can’t stop picturing.???
I always thought I didn’t want to be the reason for someone else’s happiness. Too worried I wouldn’t even know what that looked like. But somewhere along the way, I’ve realized that her happiness has been my priority, ever since that first day.?
* * *
“Incoming…”Ford mumbles under his breath.?
I tip my head up from where I’m staring at the fire and see a way too-excited mistake from the summer, heading my way.?
Brittany plops her ass down beside me, causing the log I’m sitting on to move slightly. “Hi, Nox… I feel like you’ve been hiding from me.”?
“What’s up, Britt? Where’s Sanders?” Ford cuts me off from being a total dick to this girl.?
“We broke up… I broke up with him.” She scoots a little closer. “Things haven’t been the same since this summer.”?
“Hate to hear that,” I grunt out, and my eyes land on a mermaid-haired seductress walking my way with a bottle of beer in her hand. A smirk on her face, the universal sign she’s up to something.?
“I was thinking…” Brittany starts, but is cut off by Emerson plopping herself down into my lap.?
“Hey, baby,” Emerson purrs, placing a light kiss on my neck that sends every ounce of blood to the dick quickly stiffening in my black jeans.?
“Brittany, did you need something?” Emerson asks, no sugar in her tone. I hear Ford laugh from beside me, loving every bit of this.?
“Oh, are you guys together now? I thought you were with his brother.” Red heat marks her cheeks. I guess even drunk girls get embarrassed.?
“We are…and the rest is none of your business.” Emerson raises her eyebrow, begging Brittany to challenge her, but she doesn’t.?
She stands with a sigh. “Well, Nox, if it doesn’t work out, hit me up sometime.”?
Emerson giggles before she takes a swig of her beer.?
“That was fun!”?
“Were you jealous, Sonny?” The thought of her being territorial has me ready to drag her ass to the bed of Greyson’s truck and take her right now.?
“More like I saw you needed rescuing, and your boy Ford here was just letting ya get attacked by the little vulture.”?
“Ha… I knew he could handle her. He has before.” Ford stirs the pot from his log beside us.?
Emerson snarls her nose up at me. “Tell me you didn’t fuck her. Hasn’t she been with that Sanders guy for a while now?”?
“It was in the summer… I didn’t know she had a boyfriend.”?
“Just FYI, she keeps looking over here, so for Nox’s sake, you better sell it.” Ford stands, giving me a wink. “I’ll catch up with you later.”?
“No drinking if you are driving that bike home tonight, Pretty Boy,” I yell as he walks toward the rest of our crew.?
I pull Emerson into me, relishing the feel of her body on mine. “You heard him. We have to sell it.”?
“I’m just sitting here, trying to figure out how you can say yes to her for just a fuck, but you turn me down.” Her questioning eyes meet mine, and I grab her neck, pulling her to me.?
I whisper into the hair covering her ear, “I told you already… it would never be just a fuck with you. That chick isn’t in your league, Sonny.”?
She swallows slowly, like she’s drinking in my words. “You make a damn good fake boyfriend saying shit like that.”?
I run my tongue over the rim of my mouth. “I want to taste you so fucking bad right now.”?
