Page 37 of I Did Before I Do

“What’s up?” I asked.

She smiled, kicking her feet. “So, what’d you do last night? Did you have fun?”

She must have talked to Sydney. Well, if she was going to play dumb, so could I.

“Oh, I had a great night. I had so much sex, Kenzie. Like, so much. Fucked in like, ten different positions.”

“Really?” Kenzie leaned forward. She was feigning interest—her reactions were too over-the-top to be genuine. “You had so much sex? Who was it with?”

I chuckled. “Oh, man. Sydney has a hell of a body. And she sucks cock like a pro, y’know, I was shocked.”

“Oh, bullshit.” Kenzie lunged before I could stop her. She pulled her arm back and punched me, full-force, in the arm.

God, she was strong.

And everybody was looking at us.

Once again, Kenzie was in the shop beating one of us up. It had never been me before.

I pulled back from her, frowning. “What the hell, Kenzie?”

“If you hurt her, Ryker, I swear to God… She’s been through enough already!”

I frowned. “I’m not going to hurt her. Jeez, Kenzie, you’re crazy.”

“Oh, you have no idea how crazy I can get.” She stood up from the chair and, in another swift movement, snatched my scissors off my work tray.

“Kenzie—”

She leaned over me. Her free hand grabbed the front of my shirt, and she pushed me back in my rolling chair. She leaned close, hissing in my ear, “If you’re doing this just to be her first, I will destroy you. Do you understand me?”

She lowered the scissors. The tip pressed between my legs.

What the fuck was wrong with this girl?

She leaned back, grinning at me.

Oh, no.

“If you fuck this up, Iwillcut your balls off and nail them to the wall.”

The shop went dead silent. Everyone had heard that.

All of the guys started to laugh.

“God dammit, Kenzie,” I hissed.

She smiled at me, opening and closing the scissors twice.

“Snip snip, Ryker.” She tossed the scissors back on to the tray, letting me go. “I just wanted to make sure we were clear.”

I nodded. “Perfectly. Yup. All clear, Kenzie.”

“Great.” She patted my cheek and left my booth.

Bradley stuck his hand over the half-wall of his own booth. They high fived as Kenzie passed.

As soon as Kenzie cleared the front door, all of the guys started laughing again. Even Zoe was bent over, cackling against the front counter.
