Selfish or not, Sian was the one I wanted.
With no music to fill the car, I felt this overwhelming need to just speak, to blurt out anything random.
“Who are you going to fuck first?” There I said it. I broke the silence.
Sian looked at me with a frown.
I shrugged. “I’m bored. Sorry. I don’t handle tense situations well.”
“Shut up!” Gideon said.
Sian laughed and rested her head against my chest. “Thank you, William.”
“Is this where you tell me I’m going to be at the bottom of the need to fuck?” I asked.
“Do you want to be at the top?”
“This isn’t the time or place,” Gideon said.
“This coming from the guy who already knows how amazing it is to be inside her. Fuck off, and don’t rain on my parade. Yes, I want to be at the top.”
Sian put her hand on my thigh. She didn’t move up or down and I covered her hand with my own.
“I’ve missed you,” I said.
“I missed you, too.” She pressed a kiss to my lips.
I was about to deepen the kiss when we came to a stop.
Gideon smirked at me through the window, and I wanted to beat the crap out of him. It would do him well to be taught a lesson about manners. Fucker.
“We’re here,” Dante said.
Sian licked her lips. “Right, let’s do this.”
“Do we have a plan?” William asked.
“I’m going in first,” Sian said. “He was at the funeral and said that if I ever needed to talk, I knew where to find him.”
“He did?” Dante asked.
“Yes. I figure I can distract him and then when you guys are in position, one of you can grab him, or something. I don’t know. I haven’t really thought it through,” Sian said.
“You’re not going to try and seduce a teacher,” Gideon said.
“I’m going to try to find the person responsible for killing my friend. I’m willing to do anything.”
Again, this was too much for me. “Including anal?” I asked.
I had to be shot, or put down. My mouth was like a leaking tap.
Everyone turned to me. Now, call me an idiot but my friends looked … happy. Sian a little confused, and well, I wasn’t really sure what I was thinking or feeling when I randomly blurted out questions.
“I think Sian has an awesome plan. Anything that works is awesome,” I said.
“And getting your dick wet in the process is always a good plan for you?” Mateo asked.
“No one asked you.” I turned to my friend, who chuckled. I had no respect in this group.
Sian shoved my shoulder. “We’re wasting time here. Get out. I want to get this done with.”
Gideon moved first, entering Coach Bilson’s office. We all joined him, seeing him perched on the edge of the desk, holding Sian’s hand.
She pulled away, stepping back as I shut the door.
“Hello, Bilson,” Gideon said.
“What are you boys doing here?”
“Funny you should ask that. You know we were talking with our friend Fred Arson, you remember him?” Gideon asked.
