“Well, at least me.”
“Oh, check you out. You’ve been awfully cocky lately,” I tease, and Taylor laughs.
It doesn’t take us long to get to Crave. There’s a line outside, everyone wanting to get some partying in before school starts. Dax is waiting for us, and I see the look of surprise on his face when he notices me.
“Where is everyone else?” Taylor asks.
“They’re already inside. I was waiting for you,” he flirts, and I freeze, unsure if I’m interrupting something, and honestly, not sure how I feel about it. Then he flicks his gaze my direction. “And it looks like you too. I think tonight could be a whole lotta fun.”

What is going on?
When Dax invited me to Crave tonight, it seemed like he was into me, but as soon as he saw Brenner, his eyes lit up like he was thinking about what a good time they’d shared the night they hooked up.
A flare of jealousy pulsed through me at first, but then his gaze returned to me, and it was clear his interest in me hadn’t magically disappeared the moment he saw my friend.
We get some drinks in before hitting the dance floor.
Dax is fun. Just lets loose like Bren and finds friends to dance with, and while he’s off with a group, showing off his moves, I guide us over to a corner on the dance floor where I can actually hear Brenner talk. It’s darker over here, not as many people either, so not nearly as loud, allowing me to get to something that’s been on my mind since Brenner and I headed out.
“Are you sure you’re not upset that Mila didn’t come with us?” It’s something I’ve struggled with since I saw them playing together at our place. On the one hand, he didn’t seem interested the way he usually would. On the other, she’s hot as fuck and totally his type.
Brenner eyes me curiously. “It would have been fun if she’d come, but no, I’m not upset. Why would I be?”
I figure I might as well get to the point, so I press, “Did you guys fuck around before I walked in?”
“Huh? No.”
“Because I’d be cool if you did.”
Yeah, fucking right.
“Are you cool? Because that officially sounded not cool at all.”
“Oh, officially? Was there a committee that agreed?”
“Someone has attitude. Maybe they’re just pissed they can’t have my mouth around their dick anymore.”
“Well, it definitely would be easier if it could take a load for me.”
“Maybe that’s not such a bad idea.”
“We established it would be a bad idea.” And I fucking hate myself for it. As much as I kept telling myself what we were doing wasn’t a big deal, it was so much fun. And a perfect way to let off steam.
“Yeah, true,” Brenner says. “Which is why you already found my replacement.”
I roll my eyes.
“Hey, he’s a good lay. I approve. I can find someone to mess around with while you guys bone.”
I’m curious about Dax.
Hot guy.
Fun personality.
Doesn’t hide that he’s into me.
But that interest isn’t as intense as the good thing I know I can get from Brenner.
“You really should,” he goes on. “You and I only did some stuff, and there’s so much more to explore with a guy.”
I glance at his lips again, regretting that we didn’t even kiss before calling it quits.
“And,” Brenner adds, “I do want you to explore all the things you can do with guys.”
On cue, Dax dances over to join us in the corner, slipping between us. “Quiet Taylor and Chatterbox Brenner, what are you doing hiding over here?”
I chuckle at his apt descriptors.
“Talking about me?” He raises a brow.
Brenner starts in with, “As a matter of fact—” before I tell him to shut it.
Dax dances closer to me, rubbing his pelvis against mine. It’s hard not to notice how excited he is, which makes my dick shift.
“Mmm…” Dax says. “I like that.”
Brenner moves behind him and starts grinding against his ass to the beat.
“Ooh, I do love being in the middle like this,” Dax says, staring me down.
“Uh…uh…”
He smiles. “You’re so cute when you get all flustered.” He rests his hand against my crotch. “Told you I’m good at reading guys, and I have a feeling once we get you started, you won’t be flustered at all.”
Brenner leans close to Dax’s ear, saying, “There’s definitely something waiting to be unleashed with this one.”
As Dax smirks, I confess, “I’m not experienced with this kind of stuff.”
“I find that hard to believe,” Dax says before glancing back at Brenner. Their lips are just inches away from each other’s—why is that turning me on?
When Dax turns back to me, I say, “I don’t have much experience.”
“Guess we’ll have to change that.” He moves in close, his lips pushing against mine, his tongue sliding right in. The guy’s smooth, too fucking smooth as we lock lips, and the heat he works up, the electric charge he ignites assures me I’m definitely into him.
