“From D.C. to New York?” Gunner asks. “A whole minute of a change?”
“Please?” I ask. “I’m sure it’s a great restaurant.”
“And I’m paying.” Gunner rolls his eyes.
“In that case.” Valerie pastes on a bright smile. “I can’t resist such a nice invitation.”
Gunner chuckles and the others come out, joining us in the limo. Gunner keeps me on his lap and teases my neck with kisses. I cup his face between my hands. “We should watch the movie together.”
“Don’t you start.”
“Or something else that’s really cute so I don’t feel silly for crying by myself,” I murmur.
“What are you doing Monday?”
“Maybe you.” I tease.
He chuckles and kisses me. Is this what our life could be? Good, simple, happy? We can do these kinds of things on the weekend. The four guys and me making a home wherever we are and never for one second hiding how much we love each other. At least I’m sure of one future.
GUNNER
Dinner is next to impossible. Valerie seems determined to hate the guys and Sophie is a ball of lust. A distracting little ball. I manage to sit next to her and keep edging her skirt up until I rub her thigh by her barely-there underwear.
She squirms, but kisses my shoulder softly, not a no. And she knows that just that two letter word will stop me in my tracks. Valerie huffs then orders another drink. She’s up to three. Hunter has been trying to flirt all night.
Sophie leans over to whisper in my ear. “She doesn’t like the way he’s coming onto her. She doesn’t fall for pick-up lines or the stupid jokes he’s saying.”
“No wonder she doesn’t like me.” I tease.
She rolls her eyes at me and kisses me softly. “I like you.”
“If he’s still interested after dinner, I’ll let him know. Valerie’s got a sass I think he likes.”
She shrugs and goes back to the appetizer we’re sharing. Nick spreads her thighs, dragging one leg over his lap so we can see the black satin thong she has on, just a tease since it’s barely covering anything. She shivers, then snaps her legs shut when the waiter returns.
Her face floods red anyway. She’s so fucking innocent. Even while with us. It’s adorable, sweet, endearing in every way. I kiss her neck. “Don’t want anyone else seeing?”
“That would be embarrassing. Nope, only you guys.” She murmurs.
My eyes flick to Roman and he smirks while taking a drink, his eyes flicking to me and nodding. Oh, got permission from the stick in the mud to keep playing with Sophie. We’re going to drive her insane until Valerie leaves.
Nick does something that makes her squeak despite the fact he’s staying involved in the conversation. I see his hand on her lower back and I’m sure he grabbed her ass. I slide my hand back between Sophie’s leg as she tries to give her order.
Holden shakes his head, but once Sophie’s done she turns to me with a red face. “You are killing me.”
“Oh no,” I promise. “I’m doing something much better.”
She bites her bottom lip and leans towards me. “You’re making me feel inspired.”
“Am I?”
“To be very naughty, because I can tease too.” But her eyes are dilated and she shivers again as my pinky brushes her slit. She tries to talk, but her voice is low and husky. “I will, Gun.”
“I know.” I lean towards her, teasing her with a harder touch. “You’ll do whatever I say.”
She closes her eyes and presses her forehead to my shoulder. She jumps again and I feel Nick’s hand brush mine. She’s definitely in trouble.
“Earth to Gunner!” Valerie snaps. “I asked you a question. Leave your girlfriend alone for five seconds.”
