Page 196 of Wrong Pucking Jersey

My eyes are glued to her ass, catching glimpses of it as the jersey rises when she works on gathering her hair to put it up in a messy wet bun.

“What if I want to carry you?” I ask before my mind comprehends it.

She pauses in her strut and looks over her shoulder.

“Then make sure you’re not the first to get drunk.”

With a wink, she walks back to the shower stalls, probably to change, but I’m absorbing her challenge and invitation to carry her.

If I’m willing to fight against the guys to get dibs.

“Fuck,” I mutter under my breath.

“Sometimes, I forget she’s a risk taker,” Maddox admits more to himself before he chuckles. “Better get changed. We’re partying tonight.”

“Guess we are,” I agree. “And you have to order me another jersey.”

“Already did,” Maddox mutters and stops right next to me. “Which includes one for Damien and Ace.”

Reminding me that the others are already taking steps to claim what they’ve always wanted.

“Let’s see who has the highest tolerance of alcohol after five years,” Maddox encourages.

“You’re going to be fucked tomorrow,” I grumble, and he laughs.

“Good.” He pats my shoulder and proceeds to grip it firmly. “Then Nurse Johnson can nurse me back to good health.” He leaves me to walk over to his locker.

I realize I need to get my shit in order if I really want to be a part of whatever this is going to be.

Book another therapy session and think of a game plan of how I’m going to claim the woman I’ve crushed on for years.

Jeep Rides And Confrontations

~ACE~

“We match!”

I’m trying hard to be cool and collected as I lower my sunglasses further down my nose, so I can get a good look at our gorgeous Heartbreaker Queen. I hope I’m pulling it off because, on the inside, my nerves are going crazy while I try not to shift in the leather driver’s seat of my Jeep.

These navy shorts better be good at hiding boners, or I’m doomed.

“That means you like the dress?” I offer.

Mikayla does a spin to accent the short white dress made of lace and navy blue sequin flowers.

I was in charge of finding outfits for today’s surprise and felt this dress would complement our girl perfectly. It wasn’t too dressy that would make her think we were going to a luxurious restaurant but not casual enough to brush off what we were planning to pull off today.

God, I really hope this goes as planned.

We’re surprising Mikayla with an opportunity we’re not even sure she’d approve of.

Damon and Maddox were automatically on board with it, and the idea was far too tempting to think about all the what-ifs surrounding the circumstances. I felt like it would benefit us in various areas.

Heck, it would most definitely benefit our Mickey if she’s up for it.

The only thing is, it’s a big ass gamble we’re taking.

A go big or go pucking home gamble.
