If Ever I Fall (8 page)

“We aren’t. We danced. Everything is fine.” I knew Steph made him do this, I can feel it. The evil troll woman.

“You looked cozy.” Shaking my head, I pull away from him.

“I know Steph is worried about me but there is nothing to worry over and frankly I’m a little tired of everyone saying this shit.” Having the last of my nerves worked, I stomp off the dance floor.

This night has turned into a load of shit and I just want to sleep it off.

“Oh the devil went down to Georgia looking for a soul to steal.” Hell yeah that song is stuck in my drunk ass head. I love it though.

“You are going to wake that girl up.” Jenna snaps as she drags me down the hallway towards my room. Who the hell does she think she is shushing me?

“I don’t care. Maybe we can get her in on a threesome. You would like that wouldn’t you?” Slurring the whole time I know she would. She wanted it with me and Sean once but it didn’t happen.

“I think you’re drunk and loud baby. Now let’s go in our room and have some fun.” Pulling my shirt over my head, her lips suction to my nipple ring. The fucking sensations that flow through me when she tugs it with her teeth are amazing, just not the lips I want.

“Damn girl!” Hollering a little louder than I should, I shake it off. I don’t care, this is my fucking house.

Jenna slams me against the wall rattling the picture frames that hang there before dropping to her knees. My belt jingles as she unhooks it, sliding my jeans down with my boxers.

“You going to suck me off good?” I look down at her long hair flowing around her before she sucks my dick into her mouth. Holy shit!

“Fuck yeah! Suck it baby.” Gripping her hair in my hand, I force her to take me further. I close my eyes and lay my head back against the wall when visions of Laney cross my mind. I want her little soft lips wrapped around me, sucking me. I want to bend her over her piano and fuck her to the music we make. I want every piece of that girl.

Just when I think about her little face her door creaks open. Jenna must not have noticed it because she doesn’t stop sucking. I open my eyes and look towards the door where she stands in her tiny tank top and yoga pants.

I want to run my hand over every curve of her body in those damn pants. Her eyes lock with mine and I can’t fucking move, hell I can’t breathe.

Laney's eyes travel down to Jenna before she sucks in a breath and hurries back into her room. I saw the look she gave me just before the door closed. She was fucking disgusted. Shit, I would be too.

“Get up.” Pulling her hair back roughly, I drag Jenna off the floor.

“You want to hit the bed?” Rubbing her chest against me pisses me off.

“No I want you to leave.” Jenna looks at me with a look that could kill. I know how this plays out, it’s happened before.

“What the hell Gavin? Are we doing this again?” Jenna stomps her foot as I walk towards the kitchen dragging my jeans up my legs.

“No. This is the last time.” Pulling the bottle of Jack from the cabinet I unscrew the lid and take a big gulp. I let the fire burn its way down my throat before I look back over at Jenna.

“Don’t do that crying shit ok? This is all bullshit and you know it.” My words are slurring the more I drink but that unfamiliar ache in my chest is starting to fade away.

“This isn’t over. Gavin come on let’s go to bed.” Jenna takes a step towards me when I almost lose it. After the look I saw on Laney’s face I don’t want Jenna touching me.

“Get out!” I scream as loud as humanly possible. If that doesn’t give her the hint I don’t know what will.

Taking another long drink, I watch her stomp her way down the hall before hearing the front door slam.

Sliding my phone out I send a drunken text to my mother of all people. In my drunken mind, this is a great idea but I’m sure my sober mind won’t agree.

“Tried that good girl shit mom! It isn’t working out so well.”

That should do it. I tried to be what she wanted me to be and find a good girl. Well look, the good girl lives in my house and looks disgusted every time I touch her.

“What the hell did you do? Are you drinking?”

“Drunk. There is no more.”

“Damn you! Do I need bail your ass out again?”

“Fuck off!”

Throwing my phone across the room, I don’t want to deal with her shit.

“What the hell was that?” Laney runs towards the kitchen looking like a scared little girl. That’s what she is, a little girl.

“That, that was my phone little girl.” Laney narrows her eyes on me as she walks closer to the cabinet I’m standing next to.

“How manly of you to break your phone.” She holds her hand out for the bottle which I pass off to her. Who wouldn’t give this girl anything she wanted? Look at her? She is fucking adorable!

“You are so adorable, do you know that?” I slur and sway on my feet as Laney takes a long swig from the bottle. Damn she can drink too.

“You are adorable too but if you keep breaking things the neighbors will call the police. You won’t be adorable in an orange jumpsuit.” Taking another long drink, I watch her. The girl is such a contradiction. She confuses the hell out of me so why the hell does that turn me on so damn much?

“Police? I don’t care about them. Orange is my color babe.” Laney smiles as takes another smaller drink now.

“I don’t think so. Why don’t you go lay down and we can talk about your color tomorrow?” Recapping the bottle, I guess I’m finished.

“I will go lay down just for you Laney. No one else. Ok?” I must be a complete fucking mess here. I don’t even know what the hell I am saying.

“Ok. That sounds like the best idea we’ve had all night.” Laney sets the bottle on the counter as I stagger my way around her. I can’t believe that I’m this wasted. I can’t even control my own mind.

“You know you are the prettiest little Tigger in the world?” I stop next to her swaying side to side.

“Thank you for that.” Her eyes look teary and that tugs at something in me. I don’t know what because I’m too fucked up right now but there is something there.

“Perfect.” I lean in and kiss her cheek before she grabs my arm and leads me towards the hallway.

“Laney, do you know that you mean a lot to me?” I know my words surprise her, I fucking surprised myself.

“You mean a lot to me too Gavin. Go to sleep.” Pushing me towards my room, I go in and fall face first on the bed.

                            
 
Laney

Standing in this shower there isn’t enough hot water to wash away last night. I tried to keep my wits while dealing with a drunken Gavin but after seeing the blonde bimbo on her knees I almost lost it.

When Gavin made her leave, I heard every word even the ones that I’m sure he doesn’t remember saying to me.

Rinsing my hair, I hear people talking in the living room and I hope to all hell tramp isn’t back. I don’t know how to look at her now that I’ve seen her with only a dick in her mouth. It just won’t work out for me.

Climbing out, I dry quickly and still hear the screams. It’s a woman’s voice mixed with Gavin’s and what sounds like Sean’s. I hurriedly put on my clothes and towel dry my hair before stepping into the hallway trying to get a quick peak and frankly I forgot where I left my phone. I try to be quick before anyone sees me but that backfires as soon as I hear Sean’s voice call my name. Shit shit shit.

“Laney!” Turing around with a slight smile I see Sean with an older woman. She’s beautiful and her face I’ve seen before.

“Hey Sean.” Trying to keep my cool I want to place where I know this lady from. She is so familiar.

“Can you come in here please? You live here so this concerns you too.” Oh shit that doesn’t sound good at all.

I walk slowly into the living room as the woman eyes me up and down. I just smile politely.

“What’s going on?” I ask Sean as Gavin sits on the couch looking extremely pissed off.

“Drunken idiot over there seems to have gotten himself into trouble. Did you hear anything last night?” I glance back over at Gavin but his look never changes.

“No, but I went to bed pretty early.” Sean shakes his head as does the woman.

“You didn’t see anyone else here?” Oh shit! That chick is getting him in trouble. I almost want to laugh especially if that was his mom standing here. The idea of it all almost makes me laugh.

“Oh yeah, his girlfriend from the club was here.” Gavin sighs on the couch like a big baby that was just scolded for spilling his food. I look between them all confused.

“Let me introduce myself. I’m Tammy Brady, Gavin and Sean’s mother.” With her manicured hand extended, I take it in mine. Tammy Brady? Tammy Brady? I know that name. Then it hits me.

My eyebrows shoot into my hair line as I stare at her with my mouth open.

“Senator Brady?” my eyes stay on hers as she smiles.

“That’s me. It’s nice to meet you.” I see the disgusted look on Gavin’s face as his mother lights up with the acknowledgement of me knowing who she is. There is a nice rift going on between the two of them.

“Nice to meet you as well. I didn’t realize we were having company.”  I smile as she eyes me over taking me in, reading me. There isn’t much there to read but she seems to be doing a good job at it.

“I didn’t either until I got a phone call from a lawyer friend of mine saying my ignorant son assaulted that woman last night.” Her eyes shoot to Gavin’s but he remains a stone. He doesn’t move or speak which seems out of character for him.

“That’s why we wondered if you heard or saw anything.” Sean speaks up now pulling my attention to him. Shaking my head, this doesn’t make sense.

“No, I mean I know they were together they damn near fucked in the hall but I heard him make her leave. She wasn’t happy about it but he didn’t touch her.” Gavin’s eyes glue to me, I can feel him without looking over at him. I know he’s looking.

“And after that? How do you know she left?” Tammy looks at me catching my attention.

“We drank a little and I helped him to his room. He was alone when I went to sleep. As a matter of fact I checked on him around 3 this morning to make sure he actually made it to the bed. He was alone then too.” All eyes are on me. I didn’t know it was a crime to check on someone. I’m not a stalker; I just know he drank a lot.

“I see. So he never lifted a hand to that woman that you saw or heard?” Gavin is on his feet now looking as pissed as ever.

“I didn’t fucking touch her. I think it’s a little fucked up that you take little goody two shoes word over your own son!” He snaps at his mother but what he’s saying about me is just pathetic.

“Oh of course. You never lied before have you Gavin?” Tammy is right back at him with another low blow from what I can see.

“I’m sorry you got dragged into this Laney.” Sean puts his hand on my shoulder as I nod.

“It’s fine. If you need me I’ll be packing.” Stomping off I head towards my room closing the door softly behind me. I can’t live like this.

Little goody two shoes needs to find a new place to live and fast.

What a hell of a morning wakeup call that was! Not only is Jenna being a conniving bitch I had to deal with the bitch of all bitches! Waking up to your mother and brother are never two things you want to see after a massive hang over. I don’t even know how I got my clothes off.

To top it all off I was so pissed I said things that I shouldn’t have and now Laney is on the other side of this door packing her shit.

“Laney, can I talk to you?” I hear the lock click and I know she unlocked it for me.
