Putting her down, I pull out of her and put my dick back in my jeans. I can feel her eyes on me as I do, but I don’t meet her stare.

This was a one-and-done for me tonight and probably for a while because she might not catch me on a graceful night.

Lately, I’ve been cranky and irritated.

Yet, seeing her for the first time in over a week snapped that cord.

“Do you want me to?—”

“You can go,” I order, zipping up my pants and finally coming face to face with those haunting blue eyes. “Thanks for the fuck, McQueen.”

Her jaw drops slightly before she narrows those ocean orbs. “Are you fuckin’ kidding me?”

“Hardly.”

Her hands shoot out and shove me, typical South Shore shit.

She’s not gonna let this go, and using her is probably one of the worst offenses I could’ve done.

Oh well.

“You don’t get to just cast me out because you’re pissed at me,” she grinds out as I regain my footing. “I told you why I had to do what I did.”

“I just did.”

“Stop snorting and pay attention,” she leers. “I don’t feel any differently toward you. You wereeverything.”

“Fuck you,” I drawl with indifference. I’m not falling for that shit. In fact, I’m not even going to spend the last bit of my energy on it.

My eyelids feel heavy, and I need to sit. I can’t remember the last time I did a line, but I need another one.

I’m starting to get a headache.

“Reeve—”

“Shut up,” I practically whine, bringing my fingers to rub away at the faint pounding in my head. “I don’t need you bitching at me for what I decide to do with my days or my life.”

“You’re not thinking straight. You need to stop doing drugs and focus.”

“On what?”God, I wish she’d stop talking.“I gotta go.”

I go to turn on my heel, but Bay reaches out for me, grabbing me by my bicep as I quickly shrug out of her hold.

“Leave me the fuckalone,” I clip out. “I used you for what I wanted. Now get fucked.”

I don’t see it.

I don’t see any of it because I’m low on energy, my chin is tucked into my chest, and I’m in need of another boost.

Because I barely feel the hit before my vision blacks out, and I fall into a dark abyss.

“Hey,little brother. Have you seen Bay?”

It doesn’t matter that I’m mid-conversation with someone, my sister interrupts, and my full focus is on the name she spewed out like it was nothing at all.
