“Dude, I’m not one to harp, but you’ve got it bad. Let her have some time. She’s been in lock down socially for a week. She’s hanging with her best friends. Why are you so itchy?”
“Robbie, it’s been six hours. That’s enough time to look at fucking dildos and shit. I’m going to get her.”
“You sound like a fucking pussy.”
“I’m counting the days until I can throw that shit in your face. You know Ember is in that house, too. With those crazy ass fucking friends?” He picks up his keys and looks at me expectantly.
“Shit,” I mutter under my breath. “See you guys later,” I say to Tripp and Jimi, who both give me a grin. I’d think Jimi would follow us, but apparently, Abbi threatened him to stay away for the night.
The ride to Abbi and Ella’s is quiet, but I think about the fact that Declan loves my sister like crazy. “I’m happy for you both.”
“I’ll love Raven until the day I die. She’s my life. I brought her into a shit storm that we both didn’t see coming and thank God she can handle it. I never told you, man, but I was willing to give it all up for her. She wouldn’t let me.”
“She’d never allow that. She’s a fighter.”
“I’ll take care of her, Robbie. Trust me.”
We don’t talk anymore until we drive up to the house and see shadows in the windows. Bodies are dancing around like crazy. Even through the sheer shades, I see the auburn hair that sets my heart racing.
“You got it bad, too. Just admit it.” Declan chuckles, getting out of the car.
We walk into the house and watch the group dancing in circles with champagne, screaming off-key to the music. My eyes find Ember instantly, and she takes my breath away. I stalk to her and spin her into my arms.
“You having fun?” I kiss her cheek.
“I’ve never had girlfriends before.” Her eyes glisten as she talks. “But I think Cruz would approve of these girls. They seem to accept everything, and I finally know what cum cream is!!!” She giggles in my ear.
“Can I take you home now? Maybe you can tell me all about what you learned tonight.”
She looks at me with complete innocence, and then grins, giving me her dimples. Her next words pierce straight to my heart.
“I trust you, Robbie. Completely.”
The heat in her gaze, and the way she pulls me close make me hard instantly. She’s telling me she’s ready. I grab her hand and drag her to the kitchen, finding the closest counter to lift her onto.
“You saying what I think you’re saying?”
“You’re big and strong, and make me feel safe. When you wrap me in your arms at night and hold me close, I’m protected. It’s the most wonderful feeling in the world. I’m crazy about you, and I know it’s probably going to scare you off, but if you’re waiting for my trust, it’s yours.”
Pride surges through me at her statement. I want her to feel safe in my arms. Finally, I’ve broken through. My mind mentally calculates the time it will take to get her to my house and get naked, when she sways in my arms. “Babe, how much have you had to drink?”
“Few Cosmos, conversation with your sister, then champagne.”
Shit, there go my plans. She’s had too much to drink for sex tonight. I groan and try to think about anything other than her naked body underneath mine.
“Conversation with my sister, huh? How’d that go?”
“Really well. I think she wanted to ask more about us, but I was saved when the others came into the kitchen.”
“Watch what you tell her. If you don’t, she and my mom are relentless.”
“Noted. I’ll be careful.”
“I want you to stay at my place tonight. Where’s your car?”
“I don’t have anything with me.”
“You don’t need anything. I have a shirt for you to sleep in and a toothbrush. My bed is much bigger for you to spread out.”
