costume?”
I
laughed. “No, not like that. Kind of along the lines of you are a vixen in a
bar and I am a mysterious stranger that picks you up and takes you back to my
place for a night of passion. That kind of thing.”
Everleigh
laughed. “Well, I don’t know about that, rock star. That seems a little strange
to me.”
I
smiled at her. “Well I’m sure that what we just did might have seemed strange
to you at some point too but you were willing to try and you ended up loving
it.”
“True,”
she said, nibbling on her bottom lip and smiling.
“Look,
we can talk about that later. One thing at a time, gorgeous,” I said, wrapping
my arms around her bare back and rolling us onto our sides. I kept my arms
around her beautiful body and just held her against me as we both drifted off
into a nap, our bodies completely relaxed and sated.
I
woke a while later to the sound of Everleigh’s cell phone ringing. I felt her
stirring as she moved to grab the phone that was resting on the nightstand. I
threw my arm over my eyes as she answered her phone. “Hello?”
Groaning,
I decided to go ahead and get up, knowing I should probably get dressed since
Danni would be coming to the penthouse at some point. I picked up my phone and
looked at the time. Everleigh and I had been asleep for nearly four hours. Just
as I was putting my phone back down and readying myself to stand, I got a text
message. It was from Jude.
Bringing Danni back now. Feel
like hitting the gym with me and Beau?
I
ran my hand through my hair and sighed. We all worked out to keep our bodies in
shape but usually if Beau did it he was working through some of his past demons
with his father or sexual frustration. Knowing that he had feelings for Danni
and apparently neither one was about to budge, I knew that he was probably
looking to somehow calm his libido that had been on standby since we left
Muncie. I also knew that Everleigh was dying for some time with her friend so I
decided to meet up with them and get in a good workout. I answered him back
with,
Sounds good bro. I’ll meet you there
in a bit.
As
soon as I put my phone back down, I heard Everleigh hanging up hers as well.
“Everything all right?” I asked her, standing up and stretching.
She
looked at me and smiled before standing up and grabbing her panties off the
floor. “Yeah, that was Danni,” she said, sliding into them before she grabbed
her bra. “She’s on her way here.”
“I
figured. Jude just texted me and asked if I wanted to hit the gym with him and
Beau. He probably wants to work off some of that pent up sexual energy,” I
said.
As
Everleigh continued to get dressed, and shook her head and snorted out a laugh.
“Probably. I know Danni misses him but she won’t admit to it. ‘It was just a
week long thing,’” she said, mimicking Danni’s answer. “I wish those two would
get it together. She thinks that he doesn’t want her as bad as we all say he
does, but she doesn’t understand what he’s been like all this time without
her.”
I
slid into a pair of sweat pants and pulled a tank out of my dresser. “I know. He’s
been a whiny bitch.”
Everleigh
looked at me, her eyes narrowing slightly. “Ryder, don’t be mean.”
“Come
on, he’s been a pain in the ass, admit it. Beau could have probably any girl he
wanted to take Danni off his mind but he hasn’t been with one girl since we
left Muncie. Why is that? Because he’s fallen for her and he doesn’t want to take his mind off of her.”
“I
think you’re right, Ryder, but there is nothing we can do about it. They have
to work it out on their own,” Everleigh said, pulling on her shirt.
“I
know,” I sighed. “So, are you two going to be okay here while I’m gone at the
gym?”
Everleigh
rolled her big brown eyes in the way I loved so much and smiled. “We will be
fine. It’s just going to be the two of us talking about you and Beau,”
I
laughed. “No, not like that. Kind of along the lines of you are a vixen in a
bar and I am a mysterious stranger that picks you up and takes you back to my
place for a night of passion. That kind of thing.”
