“But nothing is going on, remember,” Markus reminds him, and Jace laughs.

“So full of shit,” is his opinion, and I glare at the backs of their heads before glancing back at her.

“Yeah, I’ve watched a lot of girls climb in this bed, but not one jumped.”

Her grin drops then as Jace says, “That’s exactly what to tell a girl when you want to do her.”

“No wonder nothing is going on. Your brother has no game,” Markus says, and Baylor sputters with laughter.

“Get out!” I yell, but they don’t move.

“Sorry, we’re busy,” Jace says, waving me off, and I let out an annoyed breath. Now I know how Jude felt when he wanted to get busy with Claire and I wouldn’t leave the room.

Karma is a bitch, man.

Shaking my head, I meet Baylor’s gaze. “This was my brother’s bed. He had all the girls in his bed.”

“Yeah, because Jayden couldn’t get laid,” Jace laughs, and that’s it.

“Excuse me,” I say to her before hopping over her and landing hard on the floor. Both of the guys look back at me, and when their eyes go wide, it takes everything in me not to laugh. Reaching for my hockey stick, I go to the Xbox, ready to shoot the damn thing through the wall as I say, “Get the fuck out now, or the Xbox gets it.”

“You wouldn’t,” Jace says, but I can see the uneasiness in his eyes. He isn’t sure if I will or not. But I will.

“Five…four…” I start, and Markus laughs.

“Are you seriously counting down? Like we’re kids?”

“Three…two… I’ll kill it, I will,” I say, pulling the stick back farther.

“Y’all just go,” Baylor says from the bed. “I really do want to play later.”

Looking up at me, Jace doesn’t move. “Admit that something is going on.”

“Get out,” I say sternly. “Now.”

When he doesn’t move, I shrug and go to shoot the damn thing into the wall, but Jace throws his hands up.

“Fine! We’re going! Jeez, crybaby,” he yells at me as he gets up, shutting the game off. “God, Baylor, why don’t you get him off so he isn’t so crabby!”

“Shut your mouth, Jace. I’m warning you,” I advise him in a very low voice.

Glaring at me, they both walk out of the room, slamming the door shut. Reaching forward, I lock it before laying my stick against the wall.

“You don’t think they’ll say anything, do you?” Baylor asks as I hop onto the trampoline and into the bed. Crawling over her, I shake my head as I settle in next to her.

“Not if they value their lives,” I say, hitting play on the remote. My blood pressure is through the roof, and I’ve decided that I’m going to poison their Lucky Charms in the morning. Sucking in a deep, cleansing breath, I let it out slowly as the show starts.

“Hmm.”

Looking over at her, my brow rises. “Hmm, what?”

“I thought, ‘Let’s watch Supernatural’ was code for ‘Let’s have sex,’” she admits shyly and I grin.

“It is,” I tease back, and she laughs as she shakes her head. “But I was gonna let one episode pass before I put the moves on you.”

Giggling, she looks toward the TV. “Do you think we’ll make it the whole episode?”

“I don’t know, wanna bet on it?” I ask playfully, and she looks over at me, her eyes swimming with desire.
