We didn't make it in until late last night, we stopped at a warehouse in the middle of nowhere. Ezra had to stop along the way to visit a friend. It couldn't be an actual friend, by the way, he left me in the car with Brody. Brody wouldn't even talk to me he was too busy watching our surroundings. He wouldn't even turn the music on, leaving me nervous about what hell is going on and if Ezra is okay in there. He said that he needed to keep an ear out. We were there for two hours and when Ezra returned to the car, I noticed that he had specks of blood on his arm cuffs. I don't wanna know what he did in that warehouse.

I'm exhausted. All I could do right now is hope for the best. I showed up early to get my seat in the front like I do every time I've taken an exam at this school. Every time I sat in this seat, I passed my exam, and this time I'm hoping for the same result. But this time, I don't think it's gonna bring me luck by the look of the last twelve questions. I did not recognize the last page and a half. 

Not to mention that I was up late studying one last time before Ezra and I shared my small twin bed. 

I could feel air from the open door hit my exposed legs and my arms go out to make sure that my dress is not exposing me as I get closer to the open door. I'm the last one out of the door when I hear Ezra's voice calls next to the door. 

"How was the exam?" Looking over at him. He looks hot leaning over onto the wall. In a suit with a crisp white shirt. Goodness, does this man own jeans? Like dude I get it. You look fucking delectable in a suit. My tongue darts out to wet my bottom lip.

"How long have you been out here?" I ask. I don't like the idea of him standing out here for any chick to see and throw themselves at him. I've never been the jealous type but I know what his tongue can do and there is no way I'm letting go of him so easily. 

"I just got here five minutes ago." He grabs me by the waist, gripping my ass, pulls me closer with one arm, and lifts my chin using his free hand so I'm looking at him. "I asked you a question, how was the exam?" He leans down and gently kisses my lips before pulling back a little, allowing enough space for me to breathe. 

"It was hard. I didn't know part of the answers to the last part of the test. I think they went over those things after the week I missed. "Even the girl I'm up against for valedictorian was the first one finished." I slump against his chest sighing, placing my head on his chest looking at the closed space between us. I feel him place a kiss on the top of my head.

"I'm sorry I kept you away from your classes. I know it was very selfish of me. I'm sure that you did amazing and aced that damn test." He says unwrapping himself from me and grabbing my hand. "I think I know a way of cheering you up." He says pulling me behind him. 

"Where are we going?" I ask him. 

"Just wait and see." He smirks my way while dragging me in the direction of the student parking lot.

"I think I'm getting tired of surprises." I laugh. "Last surprise left being dragged out into the rain." I smirk over at him. A smile plays on his lips.

"You did not mind being with me when I had my mouth on you." He says proudly and rather loudly not caring about the people around us. 

I could feel the heat rising on my cheeks. I yank his arm as a warning to shut up but no he keeps going. 

"Ezra."He mocks my moans. "Oh fuck." He tries his best to sound like me moaning as he toys with me a little longer. Shooting a quick look around, I see people looking in our direction wondering what the hell is going on. I stop walking in shock at the words that just came out his mouth.

"Shut up." I groan. "People are looking at us." I turn my body toward him so they can not see my red cheeks. 

"Baby I don't give a shit about what these people think. You won't be seeing any of them after your graduation." Ezra laughs, wrapping his arm around my waist and pulling me closer to him. I like seeing him smile. It makes him seem like he is carefree. 

Saved by the bell, or should I say ring. Ezra's ring goes off interrupting the response that I was going to have to spit out. 

Ezra sighs unwrapping his arm from around me and reaching into his jacket pocket. He looks at the screen before hitting the answer button. I didn't even get the chance to see who it was. It's not like I would've known all the people that he knows. 

"He did what?" Ezra sternly asks the person at the end of the line to repeat themselves. I cannot hear what is being said on the line as a response but by the long sigh Ezra lets out, I can tell its nothing good. "I'll be there in an hour." He says hanging up his phone and sliding it back into his jacket pocket.

 The playful mood leaves the atmosphere just at the snap of a finger. 

"Is everything okay?" I ask. I know it is probably not the right thing to ask, but just by the look on his face, I can see the gears turning in his head thinking of his next move. 

"It will be after I get rid of a few people." The look on his face leaves me silent. "I'm gonna take you to meet up with Skyler and you too can go shopping." Ezra sigh pulling me back into his side. "Don't worry I will be back in before ten tonight and I'll make it up to you." He says pulling me against his chest before he places a slow passionate kiss on my lips, leaving me breathless in the middle of the parking lot. 

A car pulls up next to us just as we pull apart. 

"I'll have Miles and the guys watch over you two while you are out shopping and enjoy yourself." He opens the door to the black SUV that stopped new to us. 

"I will." I laugh pulling away from him and climbing into the SUV. I see some guy haven't seen before. Ezra slides in next to me.

"We're going to the compound." Ezra grunts out, not paying enough attention to the guy in the front seat to say hello. 

"Thanks for picking us up..." I trail off wanting to know his name and hoping that he will supply me with it. After a second of no response, I look up to see the driver looking in the rearview mirror at Ezra. Looking over at Ezra I notice that he is looking down at his phone, not paying the driver no time.

"Sorry we weren't introduced but what is your name?" I ask. I could see his eyes shifting from mine to Ezra as if he is seeing if he has permission to talk to me. "I'm Summer. You can talk to me. What is he going to do." I laugh but it soon dies down as I realize that he would probably kill him without thinking about it. 

Ezra wraps his arm around my waist pulling me over to him and pulling me into his lap leaving me straddling him. He nods his head in the direction of the driver and behind me, I hear the sound of a window going up.

Looking behind me I see that apparently there is a partition up now, separating Ezra and me from the driver.

"What is he going to do?"Ezra drags my attention back to him. My head snaps at the sound of his voice. It's almost playful but dark at the same time. "I mean I can show you just what I am going to do to you if you're gonna be all friendly with another man in front of me." Ezra says and then places a kiss on my bottom jaw. I sigh almost panting. I could feel the heat of his tongue dance along my skin as he moves from one spot to the next leaving a spot for the cold air to hit just making me melt into my skin. "What am I gonna do? You even have me questing myself." Ezra says pulling my hair so that my neck is more exposed to his assault. "Do you like candy, Sunny?" What kind of random ass question is that? 

"Yes." I moan out as he kisses that spot behind my ear. 

"Maybe I should bring you back some when I get back." He whispers in my ear. I involuntary shiver as his warm breath takes me by surprise. "I then I can have some of my favorite candy." His hand slowly trails up my thigh and under my dress. "Maybe I should have some now and I maybe some later." His fingers press against my panties.
