“No more crying Dacre,” I say.

The absolute raw emotion in his eyes could bring even the strongest man to his knees.

“How are you here?”

“It's a really long story. But also, how are you here?” I throw his question back at him with a smirk.

A smile lights up his entire face. Back in Australia, his smiles never quite met his eyes no matter how hard he tried. But getting the real thing, fuck. This man is fucking devastating.

“It's a really long story,” he says with a wink that sends us both into a fit of laughter. The light heartedness is exactly what I needed. It was feeling way too dark there for a moment.

I unwrap myself from Dacre as I remember the four other men standing behind him.

He reluctantly lets me go as he turns us both around.

Even though time seemed to slip away as Dacre and I reunited, it seems like it wasn’t enough time for the boys to wrap their heads around the fact that I’m standing right in front of them.

Nicky eventually snaps out of his frozen state, a massive smile taking over his face. He rushes over to me and picks me up and spins me around in circles. He eventually stops and grabs my face to look at me in my eyes.

“Fuck baby girl. I never thought I’d see you again.” Before I know it, his lips are on mine. It won’t register until much later the double meaning behind what he said.

His kiss is intoxicating, stealing all reasonable thoughts from my brain. Nicky is the type of guy that I could easily get lost in. Nothing else matters when I’m in his arms.

His lips eventually pull away from mine.

Still in a daze, it takes me a second to realise Pike is standing in front of me. I could never understand why he wanted me. While all the boys are utter perfection, Pike could very well be a god. His eyes are a bright blue. His blonde hair sits in a perfect mess on his head, looking like he just came from a fucking photo shoot.

Like Dacre and Nicky, Pike’s smile is fucking devastating. Butterflies tear up a storm in my belly as he aims his smile at me.

Fucking hell, I’m a goddamn simp for this man.

The months of heartbreak have done nothing to dim that feeling.

I curse myself internally. I shouldn't be allowing myself to be this excited with any of them but it can’t stop. My brain is a muddle of mush.

“Pike!” I yell as I jump into his awaiting arms.

He laughs as he squeezes me tight.

“Fucking hell Princess. You have no idea how good it is to see you. Maybe those other fucking losers will get off my dick now that you are here.”

“Vete a la mierda pendejo.”

The beautiful Spanish makes my head snap up off Pike’s chest as I look at Sonny who is glaring daggers at Pike. As he turns to look at me, I’m hit with yet another heartbreaking smile.

Sonny doesn’t bother with greetings as he rips me out of Pike’s hold and engulfs me in his. A muttered ‘never could share his fucking toys’ comes from Pike, but Sonny either didn’t hear him or he couldn’t care as he holds me.

“Mi estrella.” Even though my Spanish lessons all but began and ended with the song Despactio, I gaze up to meet Sonny’s eyes. I know whatever he said to me would be something sweet. Something that would for sure redden my cheeks even more.

“That performance was fucking incredible. I didn’t know you could sing like that. Shit, I have been hard since I heard you out in the parking lot.”

I slap his shoulder as I look down shyly, my cheeks flaming hot at his omission.

I cuddle deeper into his chest. Out of all the boys, Sonny is the comedian. Never failing to make a witty joke or send me into a blushing mess with his flirting. God, I’ve missed him. I’ve missedthem.

I eventually pull away from Sonny with a smile and look over at the last owner of my heart. He is still standing near the booth. His arms are crossed over his chest and a look of nonchalance on his face. That grumpy look on his face never far away. It makes him hard to read but that never changed the way I felt about him.

“Hey Daws.” I give him a wide smile as I walk over to him. As I reach him and go to embrace him, quicker than I can even blink, he side steps me leaving me confused and a little dazed.
