He tenses, fingers curling into fists.

“Do you want me to break your arm in such a way you’ll never play football again?”

“Fuck. Fine. Don’t say I didn’t fucking try!” He spins and runs back the way he came.

Chapter 98

Arabella

We spend the evening locked away in the room. I’m snuggled into Eli’s side, and only half listening to the movie that’s playing on the TV. Miles and Kellan are on the other bed making out. Four pizza boxes are strewn on the desk next to empty drink cans.

They’re taking the threat on Miles seriously, and it makes me wonder if something has been said in the texts on my old phone. When I asked Kellan to show me, he’d just smiled and shook his head.

Is there something happening I don’t know about?

A moan sounds over the noise of the TV, and I peek across at the two boys. Kellan has his hand down the front of Mile’s sweatpants, their tongues tangling together.

“Enjoying the show, Kitten?” Eli murmurs.

Cheeks heating at being caught, I tear my attention away from them. “What? I …”

His hand smooths up over my stomach and cups my breast, thumb stroking over one hard nipple.

“So, you’re a voyeur as well as an exhibitionist.”

“No.”

He chuckles at my denial. “It’s okay to admit you are. There’s nothing wrong with it.” He pinches my nipple.

“Fine.” I bite his shoulder gently. “I find it hot watching two guys making out.”

“You mean seeing me make out,” Kellan calls across the room. “Don’t worry, Bella. I know the truth.”

Miles groans. “I’m not having sex with you while they watch.”

“Counter-offer.” Kellan sits up. “What about them having sex while we watch?”

“I don’t want to watch Arabella having sex, thank you very much.”

Kellan laughs. “Killjoy.”

Eli drops a kiss on the top of my head. “Looks like no one is getting fucked this evening, then.”

“We didn’t think this through, did we?” Kellan flops onto his back.

“Two couples in one room. With one person who isn’t into being watched … No, we didn’t.” Eli agrees, sounding more amused than irritated.

“I’m sorry. I just … it doesn’t …” Miles stammers.

Eli waves a hand. “It’s fine. Not everyone is comfortable being naked around each other the way me and Kellan are. And seeing Ari naked isn’t going to do anything for you, since she doesn’t have a dick.”

“We could put a sock on the door when the room is being used,” Miles suggests, face bright red as he rolls onto his side to face us. “Some of the jocks do that when they have a girl over.”

“Or how about you and I go find somewhere tomorrow night to spend alone?” Kellan spoons his boyfriend from behind and kisses his neck. “Tomorrow is Friday. Once the last class is over, we can drive into town and book a room at the hotel.”

Miles’ expression lights up as he turns in his arms. “Really?”

“We can come back Saturday after breakfast.”
