I slam open the door to the bar. People look my way but I shrug them off.

I push open the door to the back and walk down the hallway. At the last door, I push it open.

"Bossman, did you just have a quickie?" Jonas smirks my way from his seat on the brown leather couch.

I grab him by the front of his shirt, lifting him to me.

"Fuck off 'fore your nose gets broken," I sneer and he backs down. Fucking idiot.

I release his shirt and he sinks back into the couch. Just the thought of them seeing anywhere near under her skirt makes me want to knock them all the fuck out.

"What's got you all riled up?" Maxon inquires, his blue eyes glistening like he already knows the answer.

I ignore them.

She's got me fucking riled up.

"Aaron," I say suddenly, "did Jake ever say anything about an Aaron?"

They look down at the mention of his name. He was one of us.

"His best friend," Theo speaks up, "It was his best friend."

Fuck.

My hands fidget like they always fucking do when I'm stressed.

Lilah's face flashes through my mind. I shouldn't want to do the things I want to do to her.

Like hell I could be friends with her. Not even five minutes after she said we can only be friends, my fucking hands couldn't stay away from that waist of hers.

Kissing her once has given me a feel of what I could have. It was a mistake getting so close to her, I know that. Kissing her and holding her like I was put dreams in my head that shouldn't be there. I shouldn't be glad that they're there but I fucking am.

After that little taste, I felt like I could never be away from her. The way her hands held onto me I could've stayed there forever.

She's too good for me. She'ssweet.But I can't fucking stay away.

I'm drawn to her. Every time I see that damn store I have to see her.

She's got a smart mouth, she annoys the shit out of me, and she's wild but fuck if she hasn't grown on me.

It's worse that she's Jake's little sister. And it's even worse that she doesn't know how he was involved with us. Even worse than that, Jake made sure no one went near his baby sister. She was off limits even though none of us had ever seen her.

Except for me. I was the only fucking one that he ever showed a picture of her to and now I can't quit imagining what she'd look like naked.

Fuck me.

I wish she would.

I just can't treat her right. I don't fucking know how. That's what comes with having a shitty father and a nonexistent mother.

"I can't do this anymore," Jai comes into the room dragging his hands through his hair and down his face.

"I hate taking orders, I hate handing people food, I don't like the way people treat waiters like shit, Grey, get someone else to do it, I can't anymore," he breathes out. I tilt my head back and look at him.

"Suck it up bitch-" Jonas starts until I stop him.

"Jonas," I grumble and he turns toward me. I nod my head to Jai who lets out a loud laugh.
