I wrapped my fingers around Bella's as she followed my sister upstairs. The warmth of her hands feeling cool compared to how flaming mine were because of her. She looked fucking amazing in that black dress, hugging her in all the right places and igniting a fire that had been smoldering ever since the first time I saw her.

Looking around me as we mount the stairs, I notice people glaring at how close we were and of course the fact I was holding her hand didn't help much. Not that I minded, I enjoyed the way guys looked at me like I was the luckiest idiot in the world. The girls were staring at her, envying her and they fucking should. She's the kind of girl that makes the heads turn and she doesn't even notice it's for her.

I let go of her hand when we arrived upstairs as Mia was about to turn around and face us. I didn't want drama tonight. It was going so perfectly with her being close to me, no need to ruin that. When she didn't turn aroundI put my hands on Bella's hips, well aware that the thin fabric of her dress, was the only thing keeping me from touching her bare skin. My cock reacted immediately when she stopped in her tracks, her back crashing into me. The perfect opportunity to pull her closer to me and she wasn't fighting it as I felt her melt against my chest.

Ever since I met her, I had been going sober on sex. I just couldn't get myself to sleep with someone else as it could ruin any chance I had at having her. Sex never meant much to me but I loved the high it put me on after. Never in a million years would I have thought I would give up that high for a single girl, especially one who was making me work for it. Is she worth it?

Mia walked onto the mezzanine when Isabella turned around in my hands, smiling mischievous as she walked backwards. The kind of smile that screamed I want you and it made my jeans get a bit tighter in a particular place. She escaped from my grasp and sat down on one of the couches, which had probably more people have sex in them than the regular sitting.

I flopped down next to her, as close as was acceptable not to turn my sister into Sherlock Holmes. She put her head back and smiled at me, her lips curving in the most sexy way, almost in slow-motion and with clear intend behind it. Fuck what I would do to take that dress off her. Her eyes traveled down my neck and over the black ink on my arms until her eyes stopped at my hands, I like how she likes my finger tats, I got them a while ago and was starting to regret them until I saw the way she looked at them, adoration and lust in her forest green eyes. That look alone was turning me on, making me think about all the things I want to do to her.

When her eyes lingered more than a minute, she looked confused at what she saw, frowning her brows before her gaze met mine.

"Where is the cast on your hand?" She whispered while pouting her full lips. If no one was watching, especially Mia, I would have kissed her then and there, passionately. The look on her face had me confused though.

"What? You actually liked that piece of plaster?" I whispered back leaning closer to her side, the smell of her shampoo filling my nostrils. She said nothing, instead she turned her head to the side, facing mine and sticking out her bottom lip while nodding her head yes. Fuck, I want to drag her into a room and have every inch of her, slowly going in and out of her, kissing her soft skin everywhere. Shut up, not now! I was thinking about sex with her too much it only made the throbbing in my pants even worse.

"Oh. So, you wanted me to actually break my hand, you're such a bad person Bella." I laughed playfully; her facial expression surprised.

"It wasn't broken?" She looked surprised and relieved at the same time, because it was because of her that I smashed it into my dresser.

"Badly bruised, so had to wear it just to let it rest." I said looking at Jason, Ben and Olivia arriving at the first floor. Olivia's hideous red dress standing out from all the black at this stupid party.

"Too bad, it was damn sexy." Bella whispered in my ear, her bottom lip almost touching my earlobe and it wasn't helping with the bulge forming in my pants. Fuck. I took a sharp breath, my chest rising at her sudden confidence, it was freaking attractive and my mind imagined her using her dirty mouth for other things, things not appropriate at this very place and moment.

There was only one person who could ruin this exciting moment and it was the biggest bitch alive. Bella pulled away from me when Olivia flopped down on my lap, her arms around my neck while putting her disgusting red lip gloss all over my cheek. "The fuck Olivia, get off." I hissed while pushing her off my lap to sit next to me on the couch. She seemed unaffected by my rejection, but her face told a different tale, looking at me with frustration before throwing a killing glare at Isabella. I turned in my seat to face Bella and I felt ashamed at her facial expression. She looked disappointed her eyes focused on her hands while biting her bottom lip.

"What's up bitches!" Olivia yelled causing me to roll my eyes at her high-pitched voice that gave me chills.

"Coming from the biggest bitch of them all." I muttered under my breath. I grabbed Bella's attention as she giggled at my words. She looked up and finally her eyes met mine again, sending a feeling of comfort through my body.

"We playing or what?" Jason said, already intoxicated, my sister sitting on his lap and I wanted to tell her then and there he was fucking Margo. It seems heartless that I'm keeping this from her, but I'm telling her at our house, surrounded by the love of our parents. Last time she went through a breakup she was so deep in a depression for months that we had so send her to a treatment center and that's not going to happen again.

"How about some truth or dare? And Isabella I swear if you're letting me drink that disgusting mixture again, I'm going to kill ya." Ben laughed playfully at Bella. Ben was a good guy, the only one in this group who had been accepting of Bella from the beginning, even when I wasn't. He was always in a good mood and he had been the perfect friend to me on multiple occasions. We had been working together at the tattoo parlor since our first year here at college and he's the closest thing I have to a friend.

"That's the risk of playing Ben." Isabella laughed at him before settling into my side, her shoulder leaning against mine. Mia's glare caught us and she gave me her typical what is going on look, her eyes shooting daggers but that wasn't enough to have me pull away from her.

"Alright Olivia Truth or Dare?" Jason yelled over the table, covered with bottles and empty cups.

"Truth." She said while flipping her ponytail over her shoulder, a typical bitch move adding to her cliché image, which was all a mask for how insecure she really was.

"Who of the many guys you have slept with was the worst?" Jason smirked. Olivia looked at me with hooded eyes, revenge dripping from her face.

"Our badboy here next to me. No offence but you suck." Olivia snapped at me, her audacity making me gag with disgust. Jason laughed in his fist while Mia backhanded his shoulder, trying her best to protect my reputation.

"That's exactly what you do right? Sucking every guys dick here at campus like the slut you are." I snapped back without thinking, her eyes were flashing with anger and I had to admit I was enjoying it.

"The slut I am? What about you? You fuck everything that has two legs and head." Olivia smirked, proud of her comeback. She probably doesn't realize how pathetic she sounds.

"Especially when they are desperately all over me, begging for attention. Isn't that right Olivia?" I hissed before I felt Bella's elbow in my side, telling me it was enough.

"For the record, I'm not the desperate one here." She looked at Bella, her eyes filled with a sense of revenge. "Bella, Truth or Dare?" Olivia hissed at her usual bitchy tone. Please don't say Dare Bella, I know the look on her face at it predicts nothing good.

"Dare." She answered fiercely, looking at Olivia with absolutely no fear in her eyes which fucking turned me on again. The word escaping her lips so beautifully which left me wishing she said it to me. I would take any dare from her in a heartbeat, any... I was sitting in the middle of these two girls. One I had slept with, much to my regret and one my dick was throbbing for, wanting to have her close to me, skin on skin.

"Have five shots? Well, it's not a question, just do it." Olivia's eyes narrowing, knowing Bella was already drunk and for that matter a lightweight.

"Very original Olivia! Did your one braincell come up with that all by itself? I'm proud of you." Mia snapped causing Olivia to scoff at her remark.

"Fine, that's not too hard." Bella said, trying to stay unaffected by Olivia's bitterness. She grabbed a bottle from the table and poured out five shots of vodka. Her tiny hands grabbing two shot glasses at once before putting the first shot to her mouth, her full lips hugging the rim of the shot glass. She jolted her head back letting the liquid stream down her throat. She made having shots look so sexy and sensual and all I could think of was that I wanted to lick the liquid of her wet lips.

The other five shots went down just as provocative as the first one. When the last shot left her lips, she slammed the shot glass on the wooden table with a sharp thud before raising her brows at Olivia in a sense of don't mess with me. Olivia sighed loudly, knowing her little stunt didn't have the desired effect, but I knew Bella was now a bit too drunk for her own good.

Something about her being drunk is that she didn't care about anything as she sat back against my side snuggling her face against my shoulder, causing the base of my spine to tingle. As much as I loved it, it wasn't the best move to keep this, whatever we were, under my nosy sister's radar as she looked even more confused and her looks were sending me six feet under.

I tried avoiding her questioning gaze as Bella popped her lips, fucking cute, and asked Ben for a truth or dare.

"Hit me with a Dare Isabella." Ben replied, joy coating his voice. At least he is nice to her. Maybe because I may or may not have told him that Bella and I were hanging out. It slipped out while we were working, and he kept questioning me about it so I had no other option than to spill the tea.

"Serenade the first girl coming up the stair." She giggled and I was surprised at her dare for Ben, original and fun. Something Ben wasn't going to reject. Ben got up and kneeled down at the top of the stairs, singing at the top of his lungs when a lovely brunette appeared. His serenade was the funniest thing to happen that night and made us all burst out in laughter.

"Alright, Lukas your turn." Ben asked when he returned from his Shakespeare moment.

"Why not a Dare?" I smirked at Ben hoping he was going to come up with something good. The look on his face was telling a tale that only he and I understood as he glanced back and forth between Bella and I.

"Kiss someone for ten seconds." Ben smiled with mischief, knowing I owed him one. I looked back and forth between Olivia sitting on my right and Bella on my left, my choice already made yesterday but I couldn't help but to tease Olivia in letting her belief it was her.

I bit on my bottom lip before turning to Isabella. I put my hand on her cheek, pulling her in closer while my stomach was shivering with anticipation. She completely let me take control as I put my other hand on her waist putting her exactly where I wanted her to be. Our faces where mere inches away from each other and I could feel her heat radiating on me. Her green eyes looked up at mine holding so many words, all synonyms, for longing as her expression begged me to come closer. I couldn't postpone it any longer and my hand on her cheek trailed to the back of her head, my fingers lacing around her soft hair. Baby I want you now.

I pulled her closer and when our lips touched, I felt like all the waiting was worth it, nothing could compare to this, to her. My lips moved against hers, tasting the vodka that still coated her mouth. While I was completely lost in her, her hand trailed to my neck, holding on to me firmly. My skin was on fire and my insides where being pushed in all kind of directions, putting me in an exhilarating high, one better than I ever experienced after sex. If this was how I felt just kissing her, imagine what it would feel like to be buried inside of her.

I almost moaned against her lips just by thinking about it. She must have felt my burning desire for more as her lips parted giving me permission to slip my tongue inside her mouth. While our tongues danced in sync her fingers slid through my hair slightly tugging at the roots which made me gasp with pleasure. She was taking over all my senses, magnifying everything I had ever felt to something I couldn't comprehend.

My fingers were well aware of the thin fabric on her waist as my fingertips were digging in her skin. My cock would never get hard just by kissing, especially not during a stupid game. All it took for her to make my manhood throb was a simple look and all it took to make me completely hard was her lips on mine. Whatever she is doing to me, I want her to keep doing it.

I we didn't have an audience I would have pulled her onto my lap. With longing I would have taken that dress of her, observing her body with adoration. I would have dug my fingers in her thighs pushing her down on my crotch while whispering in her ear to grind on me as much as she wants. I could have slid my fingers between her wetness, feeling every inch of the heat between her legs. I would have done things to her no man has ever done, being her very own personal pioneer.

Our ten seconds were clearly over when I felt an arm pull me away from my moment with Bella. Fuck, I don't want to stop. My lips lost the warmth of Isabella's as the arm pulled me away. I looked at her green eyes, smiling with content as her hand let go of my roots. I pulled away to see who had been disturbing the moment perfect kiss. The hand on my arm belonged to my sister who looked confused and above all furious while everyone else looked at us completely blind sighted except for Olivia, she looked annoyed with revenge radiating from her face.

"What Mia?" I hissed at her hoovering over me. She shook her head at first looking away to somewhere in the room.

"You and I... Kitchen... Now." She looked frustrated back and forth between Bella and I. "We need to get some more drinks and I can't carry them by myself." Her self-made excuses not good enough to convince any of us.

I got up from the couch leaving Bella with the group, hoping Ben would make sure Olivia wouldn't put her claws in her as I followed my sister down the stairs. When we arrived in the kitchen she furiously turned around.

"What the fuck is going on?!" She snapped almost spitting at my face as she put her hands at her sides.

"I don't know what you are talking about." I rolled my eyes, obviously knowing what she meant.

"You and Isabella? What's going on!? You know damn well what I'm talking about." She said her voice reaching another level as she became angry when I tried to avoid her questions.

"Noth-"

"Don't Lukas! She is my friend! My best friend. Be fucking honest!" She cut me off while shaking her head and slapping my arm to get my attention. Okay, now she's swearing at me...

"We have been hanging out okay?!" I said putting my hands up in my defense, trying to calm her down before she would make an even bigger scene.

"Hanging out... Luke if you think you can use her as one of your toys, you're wrong! She's not like one of your pathetic sluts you can sleep with and dump like a piece of trash the next day! You hear me, she's not!"

"Mia, I don-" I said throwing my head back in frustrations at the words slipping past her tongue.

"I'm not done! I need you to stay the hell away from her if you are going to treat her like that! She's worth much more than that and she doesn't deserve to have her heart broken by a jerk that's only going to use her for sex. Stay the hell away from her!!" She yelled pointing her finger it my chest. Use her for sex, that not what I'm doing. The fuck. For once I'm serious.

"Mia for fucks sake, I actually like her. I like her okay!" I yelled back and saying it out loud it completely hit me like a truck. I like her. Shit.

"You like her?" Mia said, taken aback by my confession as her eyes widened with disbelief. "You like her?" She asked again trying to convince herself.

"You can't make me stay away from her; we live in a free fucking country." I said avoiding her question of which I loud and clear knew the answer. I walked over to the fridge, taking some bottles of Corona. When I turned back to meet Mia's gaze, she still looked shocked at what I just told her. I had never shown any actual interest towards a girl, so this was a first for her and for me too. She crossed her arms in front of her chest while staring me down like we were in the wild west.

"Why her? Why my best friend?" Mia asked frowning her brows.

"I don't know Mia, I just know she's the only girl that makes me feel something more." I sighed, completely unaware of why I was confessing this to my sister. Maybe because keeping that Jason secret from her was taking a toll on me. She shook her head again before throwing an eyeroll in my direction as she took some of the bottles from my hands.

"If you break her heart, I will fucking kill you." She said, her voice dripping with seriousness. I had never seen her this serious, or that protecting over someone for that matter. I guess Bella was special for the both of us.

"Trust me, I don't want to fuck this up either." I sighed. I meant it; this girl was my only shot at ever being truly myself.

"Fine then, now let's get back up before Olivia commits murder, you should have seen her face when you kissed Bella." She chuckled while nodding towards the stairs.

I quickly hopped up the stairs with some bottles in my arms, wanting to flop next to her on that couch as quickly as possible. When my girl came in sight, I was confused at what I saw, but soon I knew exactly what was going on.

"What the fuck?" I snapped at the situation while frowning my brows, worry filling my stomach to the extend my protective character was taking over. What the hell is she doing!
