“After being trapped in the locker room and smelling a bunch of hockey players after they discarded their pads, I think I can imagine.”

Sutton took my response in stride and nodded. “Pigs.”

I laughed. “Total pigs.”

“Just like Crew’sfriendswho tried to keep me from putting my shit in my car earlier. They begged me to stay. Lennox got on his knees and everything.”

My jaw dropped. “You’re kidding.”

“Nope. They don’t fool me, though. They’ve been trying to swoop in to mend my heart since Crew left, which just so happened to involve their penises.”

I laughed out loud. “Definitely pigs.”

After giving her the short, two-second tour of our apartment, we headed for the door to grab her things.

“There isn’t much—”Sutton stopped mid-sentence. I bounced off her back when she stopped walking, and a huff of air left my chest. I peered around her while rubbing my forehead.

Ford, Efrain, Berkley, Graham, and—to my displeasure—Aasherwere each stacking Sutton’s boxes on top of one another in front of our door.

Ford smiled, showing off his perfect white teeth. “All done, babes.”

Sutton recovered quickly after the initial surprise. She leaned forward and pecked Ford on the cheek. “You always were my favorite. Thanks, guys.”

Once they disappeared in their apartment, Sutton glanced at me and shrugged. “Okay, maybe they aren’tallassholes.”

I scoffed, knowing better. “Don’t worry. There’s still plenty of time for them to show their true colors.”

AASHER

The distractions were nonstop.

Gunfire, screeching tires, and explosions vibrated my bedroom door so hard that I had a hard time focusing on the warm mouth wrapped around my cock. Liv’s silky hair weaved through my fingers, and she picked up the speed, trying to get me off faster so I could do the same for her.

I shut my eyes and focused. It was stereotypical for a jock to “date” around instead of settling down with someone in college. We were predictable, and it rang true for the majority of us. I was your average college hockey player, refusing to have anything serious with a girl, no matter how talented her mouth was. On occasion, there were some that I frequented more than once, and I say this with respect, but they wereeasy. As long as they knew it wasn’t a secure relationship and that I didn’t give two shits about how their best friend insulted them behind their back, then we were good. I didn’t disrespect them. I just looked at it more as a working relationship rather than an intimate one.

“God.” Liv choked me down and stood on wobbly legs. She wiped her mouth on the back of her hand, and I smirked. Her lips were swollen, and her cheeks were flushed. It was a hot look for her. “There toward the end I thought you might not get off. What’s up? Are you distracted?”

You could say that.

Not to mention the fucking war zone occurring in the living room with Ford, Berkley, and Efrain screaming at the TV.

“Nope.” I buttoned my pants and gripped her curvy waist, dismissing her questions.That’s not what we did.I pulled her in close before shoving her on my bed. A quick, breathy laugh escaped her, and my fingers quickly got to work.

I pushed her short dress up. The cotton stayed bundled around her waist when I hooked my fingers into her panties and slowly pulled on them, revealing her well-groomed pussy. She was already anticipating my touch. I glanced at her face and saw that her eyes were closed with thick strands of dark hair fanned out behind her.

I bent down and began working my magic. I knew it wouldn’t take long. Liv had frequented my apartment on a few different occasions, so I knew what she liked. Her smooth legs wrapped around my shoulders, and she dug her heels into my back. I sucked, licked, and flicked her tight clit, using my fingers and mouth for a quicker release.

After she came, she sat up quickly with her flushed face and smiled. I stood near my desk, chugged some water, and watched her put herself back together.

There was no time wasted between us, and the best part about it was that there were no feelings other than satisfaction. She grabbed her purse from the floor and furrowed her brow at the time. “I gotta go to work. Thanks for getting right down to business. That was fast andintense.”

I noticed the pink on her cheeks, and my lip pulled into a grin. My arrogance was seeping all over the room. I was a man of many talents, and I knew it. “I’ll see you later.”

Liv opened the door at the exact time the video game cut off. I whipped my head toward the sound of a high-pitched voice echoing throughout the living room and down the hall to my room.

“We thought you guys were having a party.”
