I knew having Lilly here was going to be an adjustment. The idea of seeing her every day both settles my soul and fucks with my heart.

Not to mention, seeing her all over her boyfriend is going to make it really fucking hard to keep myself from punching him in his stupid face.

Is she not here with him tonight? Why would she get drunk and do something like this?

As we get into the house, we’re blocked by a wall of people. “What the hell?” Bishop hisses, brows furrowing.

They’re all cheering, going wild for whatever show the girls are putting on and my blood boils.

“Damn, that blonde one is fine!” one of the guys toward the back shouts to his friend next to him. “I wouldn’t mind getting a private show from her.” They both laugh. My lip curls, and so does my fist. Bishop grabs my arm, pulling me back.

“They’re not worth it, man. Come on. We need to see what the hell is going on.” Tearing my eyes away from the fuckers, I nod, and we start to push our way through, not giving a single fuck about being polite.

It feels like it’s never fucking ending and when we break from the crowd, I’m met with a version of Lilly I’ve never seen before.

She and Bianca are standing on the kitchen island in nothing but jeans and their bras. I should go over there and get her down, but I pause, letting myself take her in. All Night Longer by Sammy Adams is blasting through the speakers, and the girls are screaming out the lyrics, big smiles on their faces as they laugh in between verses.

She looks like she’s having a good time or, by the way her eyes are glassed over, maybe too good of a time is more accurate.

I shouldn’t, but my eyes get caught on her breasts. Fuck, she’s wearing a thin lacy bra. I can see her nipples pressed up against the fabric and the knowledge that everyone here is seeing my girl like this, has me snapping out of my frozen state.

“Where the fuck is Jonas?!” I bark, and like magic, he fucking appears next to me.

“I’ll grab Bee,” he shouts over the music before heading over to the girls. He grabs Bianca’s arm, forcing her to lower herself before he tosses her over his shoulder.

“What the fuck?” I look at Bishop. Why is Jonas looking after Bianca and not his fucking girlfriend?

“I’ll grab Lilly.” Bishop takes a step forward, but I pull him back.

“I got her.” The idea of him touching her when she’s half-naked like this sends a jealous surge through me.

“Lilly!” I shout, but her eyes are closed as she continues to dance and sing. She doesn’t even know her best friend isn’t beside her anymore. I’m pissed at her for pulling this kind of stunt, because it’s not like her at all, and all these motherfuckers are getting an eyeful of my girl.

Not your girl, Toby, you’ve made sure of that.

I tap her leg, getting her attention. She finally opens her eyes and looks down at me. The smile on her face slips into an expression of anger. I deserve that. I was an asshole to her the other day. I didn’t mean to be. I never meant to be. This distance between us has been killing me. But I’m afraid that if we go back to being that close, or even friends in any capacity, I’m not going to be able to control myself when it comes to her.

And I need to because the last thing she needs is me.

“Come on, Lilly. Party’s over.”

“Go away,” she huffs, crossing her arms. It pushes her breasts up, not helping her case with the ogling idiots.

“Lilly, you’re drunk. Let me take you back to your dorm.”

“I’m having fun. And you're ruining it.” She looks to the side, brows furrowing. “Where did Bee go?”

“Jonas took her home,” I say through gritted teeth, pissed that he left his fucking girlfriend here. Who does that?

“What? Oh, come on,” she whines.

“Time for you to go home too.” I go to grab her legs, but she kicks at me.

“Don’t touch me!” she shouts, and then squeals as she loses her balance, eyes going wide.

“Fuck!” I dive forward, but thankfully, Bishop is there to catch her.

“Come on, party girl, it’s time to get you home,” he chuckles.
