Maverick fucks me until I’m not sure where I start, and he ends. By the time that he’s done, we’re nothing more than beautiful sweaty messes.

He takes his time cleaning us up and getting the rest of our clothing off as he kisses everywhere his fingers touch. When he finally pulls my back to his chest and covers our naked bodies with my blanket, I’m exhausted.

“Hey Mav?” I ask in the quiet of the room.

The sound of his, “Hmm,” vibrates through his chest into my back.

“Why have you not stayed before now?” I ask him.

His breath is hot in my ear, sending chills down my skin, “Because you haven’t asked, baby girl.”

Poking The Bear

“Stop fidgeting, baby. You look perfect,” Lucas tells me.

Sitting by him in the front of the truck with the other guys in the back, I can’t help but to be nervous. It’s well into March now and all four of them just found out that they are getting picked up for their choice of school to play football, so Lucas’ family is throwing a small get together to celebrate. According to him, no one knows that I’m coming. So, not only am I unexpected, but I’m worried that I’m going to slip up with the guys and make everyone uncomfortable.

“Are you sure you want me to be here today?” I ask for the millionth time.

He grabs my hand and kisses the back of it, “Yes. It won’t be much of a celebration without all of the people we love around us.”

Which brings me to the other reason why I’d rather not be here, thinking about them leaving me hurts. The school that they’re going off to is a good six hours away and it makes my heart hurt to think about them being so far.

I feel a tap on my shoulder by the window, when I raise my eyes I find Teagan watching me in the side mirror of the truck, “What cha thinkin about?”

“Nothing,” I lie.

“Then why do you look like you’re about to cry?” he asks. “You don’t have to go if you really don’t want to.”

I shake my head, “It’s not that. I just had this flash forward to August when you guys are going to be six hours away.”

Lucas squeezes the hand that he’s still holding as Mav asks, “Have you applied to go anywhere for college yet?”

Throwing him a disbelieving look over my shoulder I say, “Why would I? Up until last month I didn’t think that I would have the money to go anywhere.”

His eyebrow quirks up, “And what have you been doing with your time since then?”

I look at him with a duh look on my face.You.Goose gets it by my facial expression without me having to say it and cracks up beside him. It takes the others a few seconds to catch up, but they’re laughing, too by the time that we pull into Lucas’ driveway.

Out of all their houses, I have to say that this one is my favorite. It’s two stories, and has the triangle shape on the second floor on all four sides. The massive front porch runs from one side of the house to the other. There’s a swing attached to the ceiling of the porch with a few pillows on the seat. It looks comfy and homey, just how my dream house would.

“Look,” Lucas says as we walk up the stairs, “I’m going to go ahead and apologize for anything that you’re about to be subjected to. My brothers have to no filters or boundaries.”

“Yeah, they’ll be keeping their hands to themselves today,” Teagan warns.

Lucas huffs under his breath as if saying ‘yeah right.’ Oh jeez, just like the white trash to start a fight at the barbeque. When he opens the door, the inside isn’t what gets my attention first. It’s the smell. Even without the smell of food coming from the kitchen, it has that homey smell to it.

“Dude, it’s about fucking time that you got here,” a male voice booms from the living room on the right.

Glancing in there, I see the backs of two heads sitting in front of a tv playing some shooting game. There’s a bigger guy sitting in a chair off to the side watching them, and another smaller guy sitting across from him with a book in his lap.

He looks up and catches my eye, “Umm, Leo, you’re going to have to watch your language today.”

“What the fuck are you talking about now, Lincoln?” he asks looking over to him.

Lincoln motions towards the door where we’re still standing, and all three of the other heads turn our way.

The game gets forgotten as Leo jumps over the back of the couch and the brother who was sitting beside him says, “Dude, mom will have your ass for doing that.”
