Page 68 of An Unexpected Everything
I paused, that startlingly crisp reality hitting. Because graduation was coming up in a week. They weren’t kids anymore. They were adults.
Making new decisions and growing up and moving on.
And I was stuck in the same place I had been my entire life.
And I hated the fact that I had just used the word stuck to talk about a town that I actually liked. And loved.
“The bathroom’s all yours. You could have come in when I was in the shower. We do know how to restrain ourselves.”
I got out of bed and walked naked toward the bathroom. She stood there in a towel, and her gaze went straight to my very hard cock.
“We both know that I can’t handle myself when I’m around you.”
“And I don’t have time to handle that.” She pointed to my dick. “But later?”
“Are you telling me I’m getting wedding sex?”
“Maybe. If you’re good.”
“You don’t have to be good. I’ll still take you.” I leaned forward and took her lips, my dick pressing against her towel. But with Herculean restraint, I pulled away so that way she could get ready, and I started my day knowing I was about to go to a wedding for the sister of the woman that I loved. And I had no idea how the hell I was going to make it throughout the day without her brothers realizing that I loved her.
“That’show all weddings need to be. Short and to the point and right to the party,” Dorian said as he lifted his drink to his lips.
I had somehow found myself with every single Cage brother. Before this moment I hadn’t even met them all, let alone at once. My siblings were on the dance floor, as were the Cage women, Cale, and a few other guests I didn’t know. And all the Cage men had decided to sprawl on the side tables, enjoying their drinks.
“The wedding was pretty nice though.”
I looked over at Aston, as Hudson just grunted at my other side.
“Thinking about going next?” Dorian asked.
Aston looked at us but didn’t say anything. However, the sly smile on his face told me all that I needed to know.
“Well then,” Flynn said after he whistled through his teeth. “Are you going to go simple or big? Knowing Mom, she’s going to want you to go big.”
Aston just scowled. “You’ll notice she wasn’t invited to this.”
“Because she’s not Sophia’s mom,” James muttered.
“No, Mom has nothing to do with the wedding that may or may not happen,” Aston said casually.
“Either way, you’re going to have to do a rotation on best men. I mean, Ford’s was a little different since it was a poly marriage and they stood for each other, but maybe we can pick a name out of a hat and take turns.”
Kyler snorted. “Wait, am I included on your list or should I have been included in my sister’s list?” he asked.
“Oh, you’re one of us. Sorry,” Theo said but paused. “And Luke would be my best man.”
James threw a napkin at him. “Seriously?”
“Luke’s my best friend. He gets to be my best man. You know, when somebody finally tackles me down to marry me.”
I rolled my eyes, enjoying the way the Cages interacted. Kyler hadn’t grown up with them, but they had easily taken him under their wing. I knew he was one of the younger ones, and the most famous person in this room. But nobody seemed to pay that much mind. If anything, people treated him as the younger brother they needed to care for. I wasn’t sure that Kyler liked it.
Dorian frowned. “Wait. That means Joshua’s my best man. Sorry, everybody.”
“You and Amy then?” I asked, and Dorian just shrugged.
“I really like her. But I don’t know if we’re there yet.” Then he gave me a hard look and I winced. “So should we ask you what your intentions are with our little sister?”
