recognized two of them, but there
was a guy on the loveseat I had never seen. He was hot. I continued
through the living room and into Gage's room. He was passed out
face down in his bed. I climbed into his bed and snuggled up next
to him.
"Mornin'
babe."
"Sorry I
didn't mean to wake you up."
"I was already
awake." Gage brought his hands up to rub his eyes.
"Oh. So who's
the hottie out there?"
"I guess
you’re talking about Larkin Nayler. He's Jinx's cousin."
"Ah. Well
maybe you should introduce us." I gave him a wink.
"Seriously?
You want to meet him in your pajamas?" Gage looked me up and
down.
I climbed from
his bed and looked at myself. I had on a pair of pink and gray
plaid shorts and a pink tank top. "Uh ya. What's wrong with
this?"
"It’s your
fucking pajamas babe and your ass is about to fall out. He might
think you only want sex."
"Maybe I do."
I smiled and shrugged.
"Hell if I let
that happen. You are not going to be a football slut."
"Chill out,
sir. I was joking. I'm going to get ready, we need to go to the
store so we have food. Be ready in an hour."
"Sorry,
sometimes I just never know with you. I will be ready and
waiting."
I walked out
of Gage's room and back into the living room. Trent was awake and
in the kitchen.
"Yo." He
lifted his head acknowledging me.
"Good morning
Trent." I gave a lazy smile.
"I was going
to make coffee but then realized there is none. I'm making a coffee
run so I can function, want any?"
"Are you
kidding, of course I want coffee. You know my caffeine
addiction."
Trent laughed
before grabbing his keys. "Be back in a few."
"I'll probably
be in the shower so just leave it in my room."
"If you need
any help in the shower just yell for me, I'm always willing to help
a friend out. You know, be environmental and save water...shower
with a friend thing." Trent said with a smirk shrugging his
shoulders.
I smiled and
shook my head, "Goodbye, Trent." I turned and walked into my room
shutting the door.
CHAPTER 4
Looking
through my closet, I grabbed a deep purple halter top with a yellow
splashy design and a pair of bright yellow shorts before walking
into my bathroom. I got a quick shower and ran a brush through my
hair. I was lucky enough to have naturally wavy hair, so I didn't
have to do much to it. I put on a little makeup and walked into my
bedroom. I saw a Starbucks cup on my dresser. I grabbed it, taking
a long drink. YUM!
I flung open
my door and walked directly to Trent throwing my arms around him,
"You’re freakin awesome!"
He pulled back
with a surprised expression, "Thanks, J.” Then his cocky smile
returned. “I knew it wouldn’t take long until you were in my arms.”
he said through his smirk.
I let go of
Trent, rolling my eyes and turned to see Gage looking at us with
amusement in his eyes. I shook my head slightly and took a few
steps away from Trent.
I felt an arm
coming around my shoulder, "Jenna! How the hell you been?" Jenson,
which most people called Jinx, was smiling down at me.
"Jinx! I
missed you. I’ve missed our taco Tuesdays." I hugged him before
stepping back.
"We will have
to start up again, but the same deal. You come to the games wearing
my number and I will buy you tacos."
"You got
yourself a deal buddy. Anything for tacos."
Trent slung
his arm around my shoulders, "Shit J, if that’s all it takes I will
bring you tacos every damn day."
"Ugh, no.
Tacos are for Jinx and me only. No guests."
Jinx laughed
then turned to his cousin, "Jenna this is my cousin, Larkin Nayler.
Larkin, this beautiful and amazing girl is Jenna
Reylan."
"Aw Jinx,
thanks." I turned to Larkin, giving him a full sparkly smile,
"Hey."
"Jenna."
Larkin winked at me.
He really was
gorgeous. He was well over a foot taller than my five feet two
inches, and I'm guessing he was closer to six foot five. His eyes
were so dark, almost black. His hair was black and a little long,
but he could pull it off. He had tanned skin, and I could see his
t-shirt straining
