500 Days (7 page)

“
You crazy bitch!” Jasper
yelled.

I grabbed a hold of his long, curly brown
hair and yanked. “What did you call me?” He yelled again. “Say
uncle!”

When he said nothing, I tugged harder on his
hair and arm and dug my knee deeper into his back. “Say it!”

“
Okay, okay I
give.”

Satisfied, I let him go and got up dusting
my hands off. Declan and Jack gave me a high five for a job well
done. Jack stood over Jasper. “I think she just proved she can take
care of herself.” Jasper grunted as Jack helped him up.

When I walked past Colby, he leaned down
close and whispered, “I’ve never been more turned on in my life.” I
looked up at him eyes wide. He winked making my insides melt. I
walked into the kitchen to get my drink and a wet rag so Jasper
could wipe the blood off his face.

I threw the rag at him.
“Okay fine. You can keep the job, but I’m telling you
now
,
I will be
making frequent stops and if I don’t like what I see you will be
quitting.” I rolled my eyes, but then I shouldn’t expect anything
less. I was more surprised at how lenient Jack was being about the
whole thing. I thought for sure he would be the one to threaten my
life if I didn’t quit.

“
Alright, how about a game
of rummy?” Jack suggested.

“
I need a fucking drink.”
Jasper pulled a beer from the fridge, popped the cap, and downed
half the bottle. I stifled my laugh and took my seat back at the
table.

After five games of rummy, an empty beer
case, and an empty liquor bottle I was done for. Jasper and Jaxson
retreated to their rooms while Declan and Jack took the spare
rooms. Colby crashed on the couch. I decided to head outside and
get some air.

Having Jack
back
,
made my
family feel whole again. Spending the day together and just goofing
around brought back some of the best memories I had. I sat on the
steps unable to unscrew the smile from my face. Today was turning
out to be one of the best days ever. The front door creaked open
and I looked over my shoulder to see Colby step out. “Sneaking
out?”

“
No. I heard you come out
here and wanted to make sure
everything
was alright. Didn’t want you trying to take off in your condition.”
I scooted over so he could sit down next to me on the step. He took
the cigarette from my hand and held it up in front of him. “This is
new.”

“
I only have one or two
when I drink,” I confessed.

“
Do they know?” he
gestured over his shoulder.

“
No and I’d like to keep
it that way.”

He smiled before he took a puff and handed
it back to me. “So what’s going on?”

“
Nothing, just needed some
air.” The look on his face said he didn’t believe me. “No, really,
everything’s great. I mean today was amazing.” He gave me a half
smile and I had to turn my head so he wouldn’t see me blush. He
stood up and held his hand out for me. I put out the cigarette and
took his hand. He went to pull me off the steps but I hesitated. I
pointed down at my bare feet. He turned around and bent slightly so
I could hop on his back.

He carried me over to the back of his pick
up and told me to hop in. I swung my legs over the back end and
then watched as his strong muscles pulled himself up and over. He
opened up a chest in the back and pulled out a blanket, spreading
it out on the bed of the truck. He then lay down on the blanket
resting his hands behind his head. I followed his lead and lay down
next to him, resting my head on his arm. We stared up at the stars,
just watching the night pass. “I missed you,” he said, catching me
off guard.

I closed my eyes, thinking I imagined it.
“Alex,” he whispered softly against my cheek, sending goose bumps
down my entire body. His hand reached underneath my chin and he
pulled my face up to meet his. I opened my eyes to find him gazing
dreamily into mine. His lips brushed softly against mine, causing
me to lose all my nerve. I reached up behind his neck and pulled
him closer to me. Before I knew what was happening he was tugging
at my shirt to take it off. I knew we both had a little too much to
drink tonight, but I didn’t care. I wanted this. I wanted him.

He sat up to take off his shirt and then his
lips were crashing back into mine. I yanked him down on top of me
wanting to feel his hot skin against mine. I traced the skull
tattoo on his side. He shivered and pressed himself into me. His
hands worked up and down my sides driving me insane. I let out a
small moan as his lips trailed down my neck and across my shoulder.
He pushed down the strap of my bra and kissed the now bare skin.
Every touch made my skin burn hotter. His hands were tender to the
touch and I couldn’t get enough. He unclasped my bra and tugged it
off exposing my breast to the chilly night air and making my
nipples perk. His tongue licked while his mouth sucked around the
most sensitive part of my breast.

I gasped when he ran his hand up my side and
cupped my other breast. He rubbed his thumb over my nipple softly.
I wrapped my one leg around his hip while my hands slid up his
back. I dug my fingers into his hair and pulled him up so I could
taste his lips again. He grinded on top of me making me ache for
more. When I slipped my tongue inside his mouth he let out a moan
and pressed his hips harder against mine. Wanting to feel him, I
slipped my hand down the front of his pants and massaged the tip of
his penis. He gasped when I slipped my hand further and wrapped it
around his thick shaft. Now I remember the other reason I liked him
so much.

I pulled, making him groan
against my mouth. I pushed on his chest and rolled him onto his
back. I straddled him while I undid his belt and zipper, and then
tugged his pants down to his ankles. He slid his hands down the
back of my shorts and gripped my behind
,
pressing me against his hard cock.
I bit my lip to quiet my moan. Not able to take anymore, I sat back
to take off my shorts. “While you’re down there,” he pointed to the
gate of the truck. I looked at him confused.

“
Condom is in my wallet,”
he clarified.

“
Oh,” I said, feeling
stupid. I reached behind me and into his jean pocket pulling out
his wallet and digging for the condom. Once unpackaged, I slipped
on the rubber. He held my hips as I guided myself back on top of
him and he slipped inside me. The sensation I felt at first initial
contact was a little overwhelming and I let out a small cry,
quickly covering my mouth. He laughed and reached up pulling me
down on top of him. He kept one hand on my hip while the other was
on my shoulder. I gasped with every push, thrust and pull. His soft
hand ran up my back and up my neck to my ponytail, ripping it out
so he could tangle his fingers in my hair. He tugged lightly on my
hair and sat up, pressing his heaving chest against mine. I wrapped
my legs behind him and squeezed as he kissed my neck, shoulders,
and breast before he finally flipped me over on my back. His mouth
pressed hard into mine with every thrust. I pulled on his hips
wanting to feel him deeper. My legs started to shake and I knew
soon I would come. The slow in and out movements were becoming
torturous. I locked my legs around his hips to pull myself into
him. He groaned with each push. I could feel him pumping faster and
harder and knew soon it would be time. Digging my nails into his
shoulders I whispered his name, “Colby.”

“
Oh god, Alex. You feel so
good…I don’t know how much longer I can last.” He started to slow
down.

“
Don’t stop.” I gave one
final
push of my hips, I could no longer
hold on. He kissed me to mask our moans as he pushed in and out of
me a few more times and then one final thrust. I dug my nails so
hard into his shoulders I thought for sure I would have broken
skin.

He collapsed on top of me and buried his
face in my neck while our breaths started to slow down. “Holy
shit,” he breathed. I couldn’t help but giggle.

“
A lot better than the
first time, huh?”

He picked up his head to look at me. “The
first time was just as good, but yes this was pretty great,” he
smiled.

“
I’ve been practicing.”
His brows furrowed and his smile dropped down into a frown. “It was
a joke Colby…kinda.” He sighed and rolled over to his side pulling
me with him. Then he pulled the blanket over us and just held me in
his arms.

Best. Day. Ever.

Chapter 5

Casper

There were several hands stretched across my
chest that weren’t mine. I blinked, counting one, two, and three. I
turned my head to the left to see blonde hair spread across a
pillow. On my right was another blonde and a brunette. What the
hell happened last night?

I looked around the room
as the night slowly came back to me. Dinner at my dad’s, an
argument – typical – and then booze, lots and lots of booze. My
eyes stopped on a broken closet door. A memory flashed in my head.
I’ve been here before. Shit. I always tried my hardest not to
double dip, but from the multiple bodies lying next to
me
,
I would have
to say I could make an exception. One of the girls stirred, she
lifted her head and smiled at me. I knew her. This was her place.
Shit, what was her name? Casey, Kara…no…Kaylee! Kaylee, yes, I knew
her well. I met her my sophomore year of college and she wasn’t an
innocent freshman as I thought. This right here is prime example of
why she was one of my only reoccurring hookups.

I looked at her and gestured to the two
other girls. She covered her mouth with her hand to hide her
giggle. “Pledges,” she whispered.

“
How the hell do I get out
of this?” She smiled wickedly and ran her hand up the arm of the
blonde who was wrapped around her, taking her hand and placing it
on her breast. Then she took the other girl’s hand and placed it on
my junk. Fuck. This girl was good.

My head was pounding and I knew it would
take a lot of work to take on these three, but I’d be damned if I
wasn’t going to try. An hour later and three satisfied girls, I was
dressed and on my way out. As I traveled down the halls and out the
door I ran into a few familiar faces. A wink here and a smile there
and then I was out the door and on my way home.

“
Holy shit you’re alive,”
Greyson said as I climbed up the steps and entered the living room.
“What the fuck happened to you last night?”

I flopped down on the couch and dropped my
head back. “Man, I was wondering that same thing myself.”

“
All I remember is you ran
into Kaylee and then twenty minutes later you were
gone.”

I picked my head up and smiled. “I don’t
remember much from last night but this morning was definitely a
good way to start my day.” Greyson just shook his head and went
back to his game. “Where’s Colt at?”

“
Still sleeping, but you
might want to wake him up soon. We have practice.”

I forced myself up and grabbed a quick bite,
then I hopped in the shower, and woke up Colton when I was done so
we could head to practice. We had another gig tomorrow at Angels
and Demons. It was one of my favorite places to play and with it
being summer time; the place was always packed no matter what day
of the week it was. Summer time also meant girls showed more skin.
Oh how I loved the summer.

We spent the next three hours messing around
with a few new songs for tomorrow night’s gig, by the end of the
night we decided to go with the latest one Colton wrote. Colton was
the one with the heart and I was the one with all the pent up
anger, but when we got together we made some ridiculous music. I
was really looking forward to releasing our latest
collaboration.

“
Dude, what the fuck? You
late for a nail appointment or something?” Greyson complained after
Colton checked his phone for the fiftieth time.

“
What gives man, you seem
a little off?”

“
Nothing,” he groaned,
stuffing his phone away. He got up and stuck his drumsticks in his
back pocket.

“
He’s just pissed off
because Declan never text him back,” Greyson laughed as he started
to pack up his guitar.

“
You actually, finally
asked her out?” I almost fell over. Colton has been in love with
Declan since the moment he met her two years ago, but he never had
the courage to ask her out. Every time he tried he would choke up
and chicken out. I offered to help him out, but he refused and said
he wanted to do it himself and didn’t need my help.

“
Yes…no,” he sulked. “Her
roommate gave me her number. I text her last night and asked her if
she wanted to get coffee sometime. She said she was busy and would
text me later today.”

“
Coffee,” Greyson huffed.
“Pussy.”

Colton glared at Greyson. “Who’s her
roommate?” They both looked at me funny. “What?”

“
You’ve known Declan for
how long and you never met her roommate?” I shrugged. Greyson
turned his head while Colton refused to look at me.

“
Is she deformed or
something?”

“
No, she’s fucking hot
actually, but she’s also fucking crazy,” Greyson
replied.

“
I can handle
crazy.”

“
She’s not crazy.
Greyson’s just pissed because she rejected him.”

“
She didn’t reject me.” He
crumpled up our stage list and threw it at Colton.
