“Did he try anything else?”
“No. I made sure to stick with a crowd whenever I left the house so unless he wanted it getting back to his dad that he was being a prick he couldn’t say anything.”
“Good, I didn’t like the idea of you going there with him after what he’d tried. Fuck I’ve missed you Maddy. This summer’s going to be hell without you.”
“You’re planning on keeping me around until then?” she asked not wanting to think about being without him.
“I’d keep you tied to my bed all day long if I could manage it,” he admitted then cursed when the doorbell rang. “Who the fuck would be here at this time of night without calling?”
“Don’t ask me, it’s your place. You wouldn’t be having some cute thing coming over to screw you thinking I’d still be out of town, would you?”
“Not a chance, I haven’t had sex with anyone but you or since you left until just now.”
“Good…go on,” she sighed as the bell rang again.
He got up and pulled on a pair of jeans as he headed out of the room, and she quickly slipped into a pair of boy short underwear and a tank top before grabbing her robe. She peeked around the corner of the hallway and stopped dead in her tracks.
“You should have called Craig…I have company,” Devon stated, cursing his younger brother for showing up like this.
“Awww where’s the brotherly love here?” he asked, and Madison let out a small gasp that Devon heard.
He glanced back at her and sent her an apologetic look as he came over to her. “Maddy, sorry baby. Let me get rid of Craig and I’ll be back to you in a few minutes.”
“Well hell, if it isn’t my pretty flight-mate,” Craig laughed seeing her. “Lucky man as always Dev, your girl here turned me down flat for some flight entertainment.”
“What?” Devon said looking at her.
“He was the person sitting by me on the flight here.”
“And being Craig hit on you,” Devon said getting the picture. “Bet that smarted didn’t it, little brother?”
“I didn’t give up, but she seemed adamant that she wasn’t going to step out on her ‘boyfriend’. Since when did you go the boyfriend/girlfriend route?”
“Since I found Maddy and moved her in here so scram Craig, you’re not welcome.”
“Wonder what Mom would say meeting the delectable Maddy? Is she even old enough for you to be screwing?”
“You didn’t seem to be having any questions about that on the plane,” Madison stated, raising an eyebrow in annoyance.
“Who cares how old the tail is at twenty thousand feet. It’s a whole other when you’re living with them. Mom would really be upset knowing how serious you are about a girl and not telling her.”
“Screw you Craig,” Devon stated, wrapping his arm around her tighter.
“I’d rather screw your girl.”
“Get the fuck out now Craig, come near Maddy and you’ll find out how much I can tell Mom about your last paramour.”
“You used to like sharing your toys,” Craig stated, glancing her over again.
“Maddy’s not a toy so stop looking at her before I blacken your eyes so you can’t see,” Devon threatened, and Craig backed away quickly at the tone in his voice.
“Damn, she must be a hell of a lay in bed in order to keep her to yourself.”
“Scram while you can still walk. Don’t even try to check out her ass either,” he added as his brother tried to crane his head around for a quick check.
“I’m going,” Craig stated, picking up his bag to leave. “Nice to meet you Maddy, seems you’ve changed my brother’s mind about a lot of things.”
She hid a smirk knowing he’d be surprised to find out that she wasn’t nearly the sweet and innocent he’d thought she was.
