Dragging my eyes down her shirt, I see her nipples poking at the fabric. “Oh, babe, you want me. Inside.” A flick of my eyes makes sure the girls are gone before I continue. “Of you.”
She’s pushing against my chest. I didn’t even realize I was already moving forward.
“I’m not sure why you’re here, or how you even knew where to find me.”
“Your Prospectus post.”
“Fine, stalker, but that doesn’t change the fact that this is a no-Logan zone. You can’t just pop up at my house like this.”
“I would’ve called first, but you weren’t answering your phone.”
“Because I’m spending time with my family, and talking to you isn’t my priority. They are.”
That stings a little. “Jordy, you don’t have to choose between spending time with them and talking to me. We can do both.”
“We cannot do both. Mom’s out-of-town picking up things for her new project. I promised Summer one-on-one, uninterrupted girl time and that’s what I’m giving her.”
“Seems to me you can’t count. Ciara makes three.”
“She’s Robbie’s sister and Summer’s best friend, so she’s practically family.”
I look over her shoulder, grinding my molars together. “Does that mean he’s in there too? Is that why you’re not letting me in?”
“For fuck’s sake, Logan.” She huffs. “No, he’s not here, and you don’t get to pretend to be jealous.”
“Who says I’m pretending? Jordy, I’m jealous of anyone who gets to spend time with you. What’s it gonna take for me to get time with you, too?”
“We work together and go to school together.”
“That’s not enough and it damn sure isn’t the same thing.” I pull her to me, stealing her words and her breath with a kiss. “Invite me in, so we can spend time together. I’m good with girls, you’ll see.”
“These are not the same type of girls you’re used to manipulating. These are little sisters.”
“Didn’t you know? I’m great with little sisters. Just ask mine.”
It took pizza, and wings, and some serious sucking up to get Jordanna to agree to hang out with me after Summer and her friend called it a night. They said they were gonna watch movies and go to bed but the way they kept giggling at their phones; I think they wanted some time away from the big sister so they could talk to boys.
We come to a stop outside the trendy new club on the east side of Kingsley Hollows. I toss my keys to the valet and grab Jordanna’s hand, bypassing the line to get to the bouncer on crowd control. My cousins jump out of their car a few seconds later. I should have known they’d figure out where I was going tonight and find a way to follow.
“She's with me, those losers back there, check them twice.” The bouncer nods, unhooking the rope to let us in. We're escorted up to the VIP lounge and have bottle service ordered before they catch up with us.
"Very funny, Logan." Aiden plops onto the couch and pours himself a drink.
"You got in, didn't you?"
"You're such an ass." Gina chuckles, waving to get the bottle girl’s attention.
“Aiden, you’d think you'd be done following me around by now. Doesn't it get old?”
“Hell no.” He smiles, reminding me of why we’re considered charming and dangerous. “You always know where the good parties, booze and women are. Why would I be bored with that?"
Why indeed? He’s been coasting off my success and contacts since we were kids. Jordanna sits erect away from my arm when Claire steps over the landing. “Relax,” I say, squeezing her knee. “You’re with me.”
“Which just means I’m a target for your girl.”
I shift closer, whispering into her ear. “You’re my girl. She’s just someone I used to fuck.”
“So am I.”
