I sit up to look at him. “Who are you and what have you done with my angry boyfriend?”

He laughs, cupping my chin. “I’ve always been rational. You’re just obsessed with my toxic parts.”

I roll my eyes. “Oh, okay.”

Sliding his hand around my head, he pulls my hair so my face reaches his again. Kissing me, he tightens the hold he has on me until he pulls away an inch. “I missed you today.”

My stomach fills with butterflies, my blood fizzles in my veins, and my head feels light, making me smile from ear to ear. “I missed you, too.”

“Good.” He kisses me again, holding my body flush to his as his tongue enters my mouth. Our kiss deepens then, and my hands find his jaw so I can really get into it. We make out for a while, keeping our hands secured on each other’s heads, and when I feel breathless, I pull away.

“What do you want to do tonight?” I ask, looking into those ocean eyes I dream about.

He slides his hands down my sides, then he grabs my ass. “Can we spend the rest of the evening in bed?”

Nodding, I lean back in to kiss him, but just as his hands slide under my shirt, there’s a banging at the door.

I pull back, and he groans. “Hold on, let me get rid of whoever this is.”

I sigh, rolling over so he can get up. Listening to him open the door, I laugh when he groans again at whoever’s on the other side.

“What?” Carson says with a bite, then I hear Levi laugh.

“Dude, why would you answer the door in your underwear?” Levi asks, pushing his way into the room. He comes around the corner, then runs and jumps onto the bed with me as our door slams.

“Logannnn,” he whines. “Will you go to the beach with me?”

“No, no, no,” Carson cuts him off from begging any more, walking toward us and adjusting himself. “We are spending the night in.”

“Movie night?” Levi says, making himself comfortable on the bed. “I’m down.”

“No,” Carson grits out, crossing his arms over his chest, and I can’t help the laugh that leaves my lips.

Levi grabs the remote from the bedside table. “You guys can’t just stay here and ignore me this week. Next week, fine. At least I’ll have Hayden here, but not this week. You are not ditching me.”

I give Carson a sad look, feeling a little bad for Levi, but he just rolls his eyes.

“I thought you were going toride waves and get STDs?” Carson says, mocking his statement from earlier.

Levi grins. “That’s the plan next week.”

“Jesus Christ,” Carson sighs.

“Carson, we can watch one movie with the third wheel, then hang out just you and me, okay? Compromise.”

“Logan,” Carson says, his eyes widening. “I’m gonna get blue balls.”

“Too late,” Levi taunts, pointing at the TV. “I already rented a movie.”

Carson grumbles something under his breath, dropping his hands to his sides, before he heads for his suitcase to get some clothes. I crawl up to the head of the bed and get comfortable next to Levi, finding that he’s selectedForgetting Sarah Marshall. I look at him and pop a brow in question.

He shrugs. “When in Hawaii, and all that.”

Carson drops down on my other side, leaning up against the headboard and lacing his fingers through mine on the bed.

When the movie has gone through opening credits, Carson leans into my ear and whispers, “I’m going to fuck you for hours after this.”

I nod, feeling my chest warm. Sliding my hand under the blanket, I stroke over the outline of his cock through his sweatpants, and he hisses under his breath.
