Suddenly the idea of being here isn’t as appealing.

We walk inside and I’m actually blown away by how many people are here.

“Holy shit, I didn’t expect this,” Arya shouts over the loud music.

“Me either,” I reply, looking around.

We walk over to the small bar they have set up and grab a beer.

“Well, look who decided to raise her standards,” Harry says, grinning as his eyes roam over Fay.

Arya looks at me, dipping her eyebrows. I give her a wink before turning to face Harry.

“This is wild,” I say, waving my arm around.

“That’s how we do things,” he says, laughing.

Waylen comes walking over and my stomach starts to swim with nerves. I really don’t like the idea of all of us being together. I have no idea where Corbin is, but if his friends are near I’m sure he is.

“Well damn, this a sexy overload,” he says, lifting his beer toward us.

“My tits won’t reply to your comment,” Arya says, laughing.

“Where’s the bathroom?” I ask.

I need to get away. This is too much to handle right now.

“Down the hallway to the left,” Harry says.

I leave the four of them and rush toward the bathroom. Corbin and I being together is one thing, but pulling our friends in is too much. I’m not ready for it. I didn’t think it would be that big of a deal but now that I’m here, I want to leave. I want to be as far away from here as possible.

Just as I push the bathroom door, someone grabs my arm.

“Hey!” I shout.

My eyes connect with Corbin’s and my heart slams in my chest.

“You alright?” he says, searching my face.

I close my eyes and shake my head. “No,” I whisper.

He grabs my hand and unlocks a door a bit further down on the right side. Once it’s closed, he turns on a small light on his desk and I realize we are in his office. The office that he told me no one steps foot in but him.

“Talk to me,” he says, cupping my face in his large hands.

“It’s just too much. I don’t want to share this with anyone,” I whisper.

“Share what?” he asks.

I look into his green eyes and feel myself beginning to relax. “Share whatever it is we have going on,” I confess.

He grins and moves his hands down my bare arms, causing my body to react immediately.

“You need me to help you relax?” he asks, pulling me against him.

I bite my lip as I look up at his handsome face. “I wouldn’t say no,” I whisper.

He presses his lips to mine and I melt against him. His hands move down my back and he grabs my ass, pushing his hard dick against me.
