Maya shifted on the bed, letting out a little snore before falling silent again. Both of us eyed her warily, waiting. Not that we wouldn’t speak about this in front of her, but more that we knew she needed sleep still.

“I think Nico might be on to the right idea here, brother,” I finally admitted.

Jason nodded slowly, his eyes on Maya. “Yeah, I’m feeling that too.”

“Yeah. We’ve lost too much already. Time to move on. Together.”

I woke up to male voices rumbling in the room. I stretched, arching my back and the voices tapered off. Slowly I blinked open my eyes opened, and realized I was staring into the skin of Jason’s arm, the arm I was currently wrapped around like a koala. I looked up to see Jason looking down at me. “Hi,” I muttered.

His lips curved into half a smile and my heart pounded in my chest. I blinked up at him, not awake enough to comprehend what I was seeing. It was the first time in the seven months that I’d been back that I ever saw something more than a frown or a glare from him—or his stone-cold mask.

It was a little unnerving, but as I was still half asleep, I chose to ignore it.

Turning my head, I found Marcos sitting in the recliner in the corner and Nico standing propped against the dresser. How had I slept through all three of them talking? “What time is it?” My voice was scratchy and I groggily rubbed my face.

“Almost nine,” Jason said.

I grumbled and closed my eyes. I could feel the weighted stares of all three of them watching me. It was unsettling. They had to have been talking about me if they were staring at me. “Luke’s game is at eleven today,” Marcos said.

“Mmmhmm,” I murmured. “Coffee.”

Nico chuckled softly. “I got you, Little Dreamer. I hit the coffee shop on the way here.”

“Love you,” I muttered, not even thinking about it.

I heard the intake of breath from Marcos before he quickly covered it with a cough. Maybe it was too soon? Nico and Ihad already admitted our feelings weeks ago though when I was still trying to hide the truth. Now that it was out in the open, and Nico felt the same way, I wasn’t going to hide it anymore. Hopefully one day Marcos and Jason would come around, or maybe they wouldn’t, but I was done hiding.

“Get up, go shower. I’ll start breakfast,” Nico said, his voice getting closer as he walked across the room. He pulled back the covers and smacked my ass hard. The loud slap echoed around the room. “Look at that ass jiggle.” Nico smacked my ass again, before he palmed it roughly and shook one of my ass cheeks.

“Fuck off,” I grumbled, rolling over onto my back so he couldn’t get my ass.

His wide grin and bright blue eyes twinkled down at me as he leaned down. “Morning, beautiful.”

“Hi.” I felt a dopey smile settle on my face and didn’t even care.

He wrapped his arms under my shoulders and my knees and lifted me effortlessly from the mattress. I curled into him, wrapping my arms around his neck as he smirked down at me. Nico carried me into the bathroom and kicked the door closed behind us.

I giggled softly. “You joining me for that shower?”

“Hell yes, I am.” He set me on the counter and ripped my tank top over my head before he lowered his head to my pebbled nipples and sucked it into his hot wet mouth.

My head fell back as my mouth dropped open and a deep moan fell from my lips. “Nico.” I moaned and slid my fingers through his hair.

He chuckled against my breast and roughly tugged my booty shorts off me. It was such a quick move; he managed to get the out from under me while I remained sitting on the counter.

“That was hot.” I giggled.

He grinned wickedly, before he dropped to his knees before me and pulled my legs apart, spreading me open wide on thecounter. Shouldering his way between my parted thighs, Nico used his thumbs to pull open my folds and then he descended. His tongue licked me from asshole to clit in one long swipe.

“Oh fuck, Nico.” I panted, winding my fingers through his hair. I tried to keep my voice down, not wanting to wake up Luke and have to explain what had happened, but at the same time I didn’t care. Marcos was there, he could deal with the fall out, I wanted to enjoy the moment.

Nico went to work on my clit, licking and sucking and flicking his tongue over it. Two fingers entered my cunt and slid in, in one slow thrust. I arched my back and pushed my hips , trying to grind on his face, but his other hand gripped one of my hips tightly and held me in place.

Curling his fingers in a come-hither motion, Nico pressed them forward against that spot inside me that made me gasp. It didn’t take long for me to come undone, right on the counter. “Oh fuck, oh fuck, oh fuck,” I chanted, panting hard. My body jerking as I folded over his head still lapping at my sensitive folds. “Nico,” I muttered.

He chuckled softly against my skin before he slowly pulled off my clit with an audible pop. “So fucking good for me.” He stood up and kissed me senseless. I opened for him, letting him slide his tongue against mine and taste myself in the passionate kiss.
