“You’re not fucking funny,” I bite out, straightening up to snatch my camera from his hand.
“I tried to warn you,” he chuckles, heading over to Bear to unclip the tangled leash from his collar.
As soon as it’s off, he sprints along the shoreline to get his paws wet and then ventures in a little deeper, swimming right into the ocean until the water reaches his neck. We walk along the beach to keep an eye on him and I lift my camera to take his picture, grinning when I realize how good he looks with the sun setting on the horizon behind him. I feel Xan watching me the entire time but do my best to pretend he’s not there, taking about a hundred pictures from every angle I can manage. We let him do his thing for a while and then Xan whistles to call him back, sighing when he runs out of the water and soaks us both with a full body shake.
“Thanks, man,” he mutters, crouching down beside him to clip the leash back on.
I laugh quietly and take a picture of his back, biting my lip to hide my enjoyment while I snap a few of the two of them together. He stands up to his full height and I back away from them, secretly loving the way he walks towards me with his purple hair falling over his forehead and the chain wrapped around his hand. My camera likes him almost as much as I do, and I already know my followers are gonna lose their shit when I post these on my account later. He keeps moving towards me and I keep moving back, but then he steals the camera from my face and holds it out to the side.
“Hey.”
“Kiss me and you can have it back,” he teases, leaning over me to brush his nose against mine.
I shake my head at him and press my lips to his, blinking when I hear the click of my camera on my left.
“What do you think you’re doing?”
“Showing you how happy you look right now,” he says simply, turning the camera around to show me the picture he just took of us together.
I touch my lips to hide the smile on my face and he runs his hands over my sides, pulling me into him until my chest bumps his. I look up at him and he kisses me again, sliding his arms around my waist with something that feels an awful lot like possession.
He’s kissing me like he wants to keep me.
And goddamn him, I think I want that, too.

Xander
I lean back against the door frame and chew my gum, shamelessly watching her move while she leans over my bathroom counter to put her lip gloss on. She wanted to take a shower when we got back from the beach just now and I needed to clean my messy bastard of a dog, but now I’m pissed at myself for missing the opportunity to fuck her in there. She looks equal parts angel and devil wearing a white lacy thong and a matching bra, her towel dried hair falling over her back in subtle curls that reach the curve of her spine. Slow Down by Chase Atlantic plays through the speaker on the counter and she turns it up a little bit, raising a brow when she catches my eyes on her ass.
“Do you mind?”
I smirk and step closer to her, slowly running my finger over the edge of the thong at her hip. “Did you put this on for me?”
“No,” she lies, avoiding my eyes while tossing her makeup into her fancy purse. “I need to go home now.”
“Why?”
“Because I have homework to do,” she lies again, turning away from me to grab her jeans from the side.
I snatch her wrist and spin her to face me, shoving her back against the wall beside the door. She grins and I take her waist with both hands, trapping her here with my hips pinned right up against hers.
We’ve gotten into a predictable pattern over the last couple weeks – I pretend she’s my girlfriend and she pretends she’s not, attempting to leave me every night like she belongs anywhere but here. I never let her go, but my stubborn girl still likes to fight me to save face.
“What are you doing?”
“I wanna make you all messy again,” I inform her, tangling my fingers in her hair to pull her head back.
I lick the strawberry lip gloss from her mouth and feed her my gum, enjoying the way she takes what I give her without argument. I kiss her jaw and move my mouth down to her throat, groaning against her hot flesh when I get a taste of the shower gel lingering there.
She tastes like me and it’s making me crazy.
I suck on her neck and she moans, rubbing her hot little pussy against the front of my sweats. “Xan.”
“I know, baby,” I say softly, dragging one of her thighs up to lock it around my hip. “Just a little one, okay? No one has to know.”
She whimpers and I take that as a yes, gently digging my teeth into her skin to mark her as mine. Her hips buck and I remove my hand from her hair, sliding it down over her stomach to get to the waistband of her thong. I dip my fingers inside and find her clit with the middle one, teasing her and playing with her until she’s writhing against me. As soon as I’m done with her neck, she pulls my mouth up to hers and sucks on my bottom lip, still rubbing on my dick through my sweats to set me off. It works and I squeeze her ass, pulling her away from the wall to back her up into my room. I push her down on the bed and fall down on top of her, shoving her legs apart to take my rightful spot between them. She grinds on me and I kiss her, fucking loving the way she lets herself go with me when no one’s watching. Her phone rings on the nightstand and she ignores it, but then it rings again and she growls impatiently, ripping her mouth from mine to lean over and check it.
“Who is it?”
“Noah,” she mutters, not noticing the way my jaw ticks because why the fuck is that pretty boy bitch still calling my fucking girl?
She reaches out to pick it up and I grab her wrist, taking the phone from her hand to stop her from hanging up on him. “I dare you to answer it.”
She curses and I smirk like an asshole, hitting the green button to pass it back to her. She glares like she wants to kill me and lifts it up to her ear, her pastel blue eyes flashing with a mixture of panic and excitement.
“He–hello?” she stammers, shivering beneath me when I dip my head to lick the purple bruise on her neck.
Mine.
His muffled voice fills my ears and I run my hand over her inner thigh, spreading her out even further to get to her pussy. I lean up on one elbow beside her head and push her thong to the side, watching her face for her reaction while I slide two fingers inside her.
“Yeah, I uh.. I went out for a run,” she tells him, her eyes rolling at the pressure. “On the beach.”
I steal the gum from her mouth and tease her clit with my thumb, laughing to myself when she bites down on her lip to cover the sounds creeping up her throat.
“Bad girl,” I whisper in her ear, curling my knuckles to rub the spot that’ll make her moan for me.
“Oh, shit– I mean no one,” she rushes out, breathing hard against the side of my face. “I’m by m–myself.”
I click my tongue at her lies and slide my fingers out of her pussy, slowly moving one down to tease her asshole with it. “Did you ever let him touch you here?”
She tenses but shakes her head, lifting her hips up off the bed to allow me better access. I work the tip inside and she whimpers before she can stop it, using her free hand to dig her nails into the back of my neck.
My little devil likes having one boy in each ear, me fingering her ass and making her shake while he listens on the other side.. it’s making her reckless.
She pushes my head down and I give her what she wants, leaving a trail of open mouthed kisses on her stomach while I move to lie between her legs. She runs her hand through my hair and I lick her clit, grinning up at her when I hear him raise his voice through the phone.
“Sorry, I.. what did you say?”
He continues talking about fuck knows what and I continue eating her pussy, spitting on the finger in her ass to slide it in a little further. I get it up to the second knuckle and she cries out, quickly slapping a hand over her mouth in an attempt to keep it in. I playfully shake my head at her and squeeze her inner thigh with my free hand
, increasing my pace on her clit to drive her wild. Her legs tremble like she’s about to come and I groan without remorse, eagerly swallowing her down while she thrashes around like a fish out of water.
“JJ, what the fuck are you doing?!” Noah barks out, loud enough for me to hear every word.
“Get rid of him.”
She does as she’s told and tosses her phone to the side, quickly snatching both sides of my neck to yank me up to her mouth. “You’re such an asshole.”
“But you like it,” I tease, pushing my sweats down to my thighs to pull my cock out. “You like being mine?”
She nods and I grin, rolling my hips out to run my piercing over her entrance. She lifts her ass up to get the tip in and I push my way inside, my head fucking spinning at the heat of her pussy surrounding me.
“Fuck, Xan,” she moans into my mouth. “Do it again.”
“Do what again?”
She pulls back to glare at me and I breathe a laugh, moving my hand down beneath her to get to her ass.
“I’m gonna put my dick in here someday,” I inform her, dipping my head to slide my tongue over her bottom lip. “It’s gonna feel so fucking good, baby. So fucking tight.”
“Why can’t you do it now?”
Fuck me.
“Because anal hurts if you don’t do it right,” I explain, slowing my pace to ensure I don’t come before she does. “We need lube and you need more practice.”
“I bet Trav’s got lube.”
“Probably, yeah,” I agree. “You want me to go ask him real quick?”
She opens her mouth to answer but snaps it shut again, frowning to herself while she thinks on that for a second. “Okay, I see your point.”
I chuckle and circle her asshole with my middle finger, slipping it inside to stretch her out a little bit. I pull her up into me and she whimpers, grinding her hips on me to fuck me back hit for hit.
“Fuck, Jordyn,” I grit out, leaning over her to drag her lip out between my teeth. “Rub your clit and feel how wet you are for me.”
She reaches down between us and does as she’s told, her mouth parting while she plays with herself. She tips her head back and I take full advantage, sliding my tongue between her lips to tease her with my piercing. She moans over and over again and fists my hair with her free hand, her pussy squeezing my cock in a fucking vice grip while she gets herself off.
“Goddamnit, baby, you’re so fucking bad,” I praise, knowing she’s close. “Make yourself come.”
“It’s not me, Xan,” she chokes out, her body shaking uncontrollably against mine. “Fuck.”
She comes and I ride us both through it, fucking her mouth with my tongue while my cock goes off inside her. She bites my lips and traps me between her thighs, pulling my hair so hard it hurts my scalp. I growl and slide my knees up to pin her beneath me, our heavy breathing mixing together while we attempt to come down from the high.
I’m so fucking high.
She’s the best drug I’ve ever had and I’m officially addicted, out of control and desperate not to lose my fix.
A part of me feels like a piece of shit for stealing her because she’s too good for me and I know it, but the other part of me doesn’t give a fuck.
I accidentally stumbled upon the girl I want for life at eighteen years old and I’m fucking keeping her.
Indefinitely.

Bear whines at the patio door and I let out a sigh, leaving Jordyn curled up on my bed while I force myself up to pull my sweats back on. “Your daddy owes me big for leaving your needy ass with me,” I mutter, walking over to unlock the door for him.
My girl chuckles behind me and I wink at her, following him outside to check what he’s so worked up about. He walks over to the heated pool and I search the darkness, pulling my brows in when I find Travis sitting on the edge with his knees pulled up to his chest, a beer in his hands with his head hung low. Bear lies down on the concrete next to him and he looks up, rolling his eyes when he sees me standing beside him.
“You alright?”
He laughs lightly at that, but I don’t think he finds me funny. “What are you doing, Xan?”
“What?”
“You know what,” he slurs, flicking his wrist at the pool house behind me. “I didn’t need Kian to tell me about you and her. You two have been sneakin’ around out here for weeks, probably longer.”
“Is that a problem for you?” I ask, dropping down on his other side when he decides to remain silent. “Why are you so against me and her?”
“Because she’s supposed to be Noah’s,” he says bluntly, lifting his beer to his mouth to swallow it down. “He thinks she’s sitting at home by herself every night to fix her broken pride, taking a minute to cool off before she eventually takes him back.”
I highly doubt it considering what he heard on the phone earlier tonight, but I don’t tell him that.
“If he finds out she’s been fuckin’ around with you this whole time, he’s gonna retaliate.”
“I don’t give a shit what he does.”
“I know you don’t but I do,” he stresses. “I actually care about that girl in your bed, you idiot.”
“Fucking please, man, you don’t even know her.”
He frowns at that, pulling his head back to bounce his eyes between mine. “What the fuck does that mean?”
My jaw ticks but I keep my mouth shut, partly because I don’t feel like arguing with him but mostly because it’s not my place to tell her secrets.
He doesn’t know that creepy horror movies make her hot or that she likes the marshmallows beneath the cream or that she’s insecure about her body thanks to the endless amount of times people have tried to tear her down to their level. He doesn’t know about the pictures or Washington or that this bullshit life she’s been forced into is killing her slowly, day by fucking day.
He doesn’t know her like I do.
No one does.
He raises a cocky ass brow and I chuckle, pulling my cigarettes out of my pocket to light one up. “I like her, Trav,” I admit. “I really fucking like her.”
“Maybe that’s true but what happens when you get bored in a week or a month or a year from now?” he asks, lowering his voice to ensure she won’t hear what comes next. “You’re gonna break her heart, man.”
“No, I’m not,” I say simply, looking over my shoulder to watch her through the window. “I’m not that guy anymore.”
“Since when?”
I shrug and blow my smoke out, grinning to myself while I give him the only answer there is. “Since her.”

Jordyn
He takes this game way too seriously.
It doesn’t matter what I dare him to do, I can’t get him to say no to me. I’ve made him drink a glass of hot sauce, made him wear my underwear for an entire day, I’ve even painted his nails, for fuck’s sake, and yet here he stands, staring at me from across the hall with his back resting on his locker and his phone in his hand, his black nails on full display for all to see.
I need to up my game.
So that’s exactly what I’ve done.
Xander: You can’t be serious.
Jordyn: I’m so serious.
Xander: That’s cheating.
Jordyn: Baby, that’s winning.
He shakes his head at me and I smirk, knowing I’ve got him this time, but then he shocks the shit out of me and removes his crooked tie from his neck, tossing it into his locker over his shoulder.
He wouldn’t..
“What’s he doing?” Kian asks from beside me, dropping his jaw when Xan removes his shirt from his body and gets to work on the zipper of his pants. “Oh my god.”
I lift my hands to cover my mouth and the hall erupts into chaos, most of the girls squealing and staring at my goddamn man while he strips his clothes, not stopping until he’s butt ass naked in front of at least half of the entire senior class. Sienna drags her lip out through her teeth and I scrub my hands
over my cheeks, inwardly cursing myself for coming up with such a stupid dare.
This was a bad idea.
He cocks his head like he heard me and I drop my eyes to his dick, not missing the way he can barely keep it covered with one hand. Kian stares at his form with a shameless grin on his face and Travis lets out an aggravated breath, pinching the bridge of his nose with a look that screams fucking idiot.
“Dude, my mom’s comin–”
“Alexander Reid!” the principal screeches, making several students and staff members jump while she makes her way through the parted crowd to get to us.
“Yes, ma’am?” he asks, still staring at me.
“Alexander,” I mouth, making him laugh.
“For goodness sake, just.. cover yourself up and go to my office,” she grits out, her face burning with a mixture of embarrassment and rage. “Now!”
Oh, fuck.

Forty seven minutes later, my phone buzzes with a text and I take it out to check it, only releasing the breath I was holding when I realize his aunt hasn’t killed him yet.
Xander: Tell him you need to go to the bathroom.
Xander: Bring your shit with you.
I pull my brows in at that, hesitating a minute before I decide to do as I’m told. A few students follow me with their eyes but I ignore them, my heels tapping along the floor while I walk over to the teacher’s desk.
“Can I go to the bathroom, please?”
He waves his permission without looking up and I slip out into the hall, squealing when two hands snatch my waist from behind.
“Xan,” I hiss, laughing when he smacks my ass and spins me to face him. “What happened?”
“I got suspended.”
“And you’re happy about that?”
“Baby, I’ve got three days off,” he teases, leaning over me to link our fingers together. “You wanna skip last period with me?”
I chew my lip and drop my eyes to our hands, smiling to myself at the sight of the black nail polish on my fingernails. I’m not supposed to wear this cheap crap, as my mother calls it, but he wanted to paint mine after I finished his and I let him do it, mostly for the game but also because I’ve become a love sick fool with no brain.
