Nico was smiling broadly though, as he entered Kara’s dorm room. It was a tight fit with the five of us already in there. Stephanie had moved out the day before, but she and Kara would be back on my floor when they returned in the fall.

I pulled away from Marcos’s as Nico barreled past Jason, pushing him out of the way, and wrapped his arms around me, lifting me in a bone tight hug. “Hey,” I murmured, holding him just as tight.

“Hi, beautiful.” Nico’s voice was soft and right next to my ear. “You’ve been a bad girl.”

I chuckled softly. “Punish me later?”

“Careful,” Jason warned, his gaze stern. “You don’t know what you’re asking for.”

“And sister is still in the room!” Kara exclaimed, shaking her head.

Marcos laughed and smacked my ass. I jumped, startled, and yelped.

Kara groaned and grabbed a box. “I’m going to the car. Don’t fuck on my bed.”

I immediately blushed, my cheeks going hot as embarrassment rolled over me.

Marcos laughed again and pressed against my back, pushing me into Nico. “Fucking hell, you smell amazing.”

“I just want to eat you,” Nico groaned. He bit down gently on the side of my neck, making me groan low in my throat.

“Did you get our note?” Jason asked.

“Straight for the jugular, huh?” I asked, eyeing him warily.

“Darlin’, you have no idea,” Jason muttered. He still looked stone face, and I wondered if he was pissed that I hadn’t called or texted.

“Note received, but I didn’t think we were doing anything more than having fun,” I said, trying to deflect his anger.

“Can’t have fun if there’s no contact,” Jasonshot back.

I smiled, “You miss me?” I pulled away from Nico and Marcos and pressed myself into Jason’s chest. “You wanted to see me again?”

Jason rolled his eyes, but his hands rested on my hips, holding me tightly. “I didn’t say that.”

“But you did, without using the actual words.” I grinned up at him. “Am I in trouble, big guy?”

He growled before he captured my lips in a filthy, passionate kiss. I moaned and wrapped my arms around him, holding on tight as he lifted me. Wrapping my legs around his waist, I fiercely kissed him back.

I felt my phone being tugged out of my back pocket and didn’t even care. They would find that I did indeed add their numbers, but never texted them.

Clinging to Jason as he took a seat on Kara’s bed, I found myself straddling his lap once again. “This feels familiar,” I murmured, breaking their kiss.

“Too many clothes for it to be familiar,” Jason shot back.

There was a loud knock on the dorm door, before Kara yelled out. “Are you decent?”

“No,” I called back, before I slowly slid off Jason’s thighs.

“Too bad, I’m coming in,” Kara grinned wickedly as she walked in the room.

I blushed but rolled my eyes at my friend’s antics.

Two hours later we had packed up all of Kara’s stuff into Marcos’s Chevy pickup truck. “Come on, Maya, we’re getting lunch,” Marcos called to me as he finished tying down the boxes in the bed of the truck.

Nico wrapped an arm around my shoulders before I could back out. He led me around the side of the truck. He opened the backdoor and waited for me to climb up into the crew cab truck. When Jason climbed in the other door, and Nico followed me in the back, I was surprised, yet not surprised, to find myself sandwiched between the two men on the bench seat.

On cue, as the doors shut, they both spread their thighs out, taking up all the available space in the back. I rolled my eyes at their predictability, but decided to play with fire, setting my hands on both their thighs and squeezing just above the knee.
