Her Sinners (Somerville #1)

Chapter 37

Stevie's Pov

"Alright Miss Thang, I am going to head out."

I stand up from putting the leftovers into the fridge. I could smell the vanilla of V's perfume cloud around me.

I glance to my left, her coat on and purse and the leftovers I pack for her in her hands.

"You sure you don't want to stay."

She gives a subtle grin, "Oh no, you kids have fun I did my part. Plus I am to old to hang out with y'all."

Sin walks by her, "Nonsense Ms.V you don't look a day over twenty-eight." A sly grin upon his face as he leans down to press a quick peck on her cheek.

V practically blushes from the male attention. I roll my eyes as he shows off to my Godmother. They both seem to enjoy each other's company at the dinner table earlier.

"You say such sweet things to me Sin. But it's almost past my bedtime."

I giggle because it's only seven. But V does get up early to open the restaurant. I give her a hug as I walk her to the front door.

Before she leaves. "I left some sangria in the fridge. If anyone drinks it they stay the night." Her eyes narrow slighlty as she gets my attention.

"Yes ma'am." I give her a smile then a kiss on the cheek.

"Now be careful Miss Thang." She hints. Her eyes flicking to the back as the guys play on my play station.

My cheeks heat up at that. She just pats my cheek lovely and sighs "Ugh to be young again."

With that, and a air kiss, she leaves.

I slowly walk into the den to see everyone around watching Heath, and Beau playing Mario Kart.

Belle walking to Lily as she begs for a turn. I smile at that, it's nice to have everyone here. I glance around for Sin as he seem to have disappeared.

I make my way through the archway into the kitchen to see Sin looking at the bottle of sangria.

"Are you going to drink some, or just stare at it all day."

He doesn't glance up, but I see his lips move into a smile. "No I think I will just stare at it."

I grin before taking the bottle from his hand. I pull out some glasses. After filling them, I take the extra 3 to the others.

Belle is engross into her phone, as I cough a little to get her attention. She sees my out stretched hand with a glass before taking it. I give the others theirs. We all watch Lily have a turn at the game.

A comfortable silence stretches through the room. Something I have come to love. The house no longer seems empty.

Sometime later I found myself dancing with Belle as the glass of alcohol gives me a slight buzz. I am no where near gone as Belle. She went hard, and I am sure she will pay for it tomorrow.

She was all in her feels as she screams at the top of her lungs to the lyrics of You Broke Me First by Tate McRae.

I just let her do her thing. The guys all watching us from the couch talking amongstthemselves. Sin put Lily to bed an hour ago in one of my guest rooms. As I watch them they watch me. I could feel the heat of their gaze as I dance around with Belle.

It eventually started to get late, and Belle's intolerance to the alcohol started to show.

"I have....pee." She hiccups between words. I take her to the half bathroom downstairs as she's to gone to make it upstairs by herself.

I stand outside, letting her have some privacy to do her business. When I go in she is falling asleep on the toilet. I let out a little laugh to help her up.

I call to Beau, "Parties over huh."

I glance to see him in the doorway. I smile, "I am afraid so. Help me bring her to bed."

He takes his twin from my arms, and strides up the stairs. I ignore the way I check him out as he carries his sister to bed. The act sweet, it warms my heart.

We place her in the other spare room. I take off her pants because she will bitch later if we let her sleep in jeans. I place her under the covers. Her eyes open slightly, as she takes in Beau and me.

Her eyes glassy as tears start spilling out of them. I go to soothe her, my hands brush the blonde strands from her face.

"Hey shhh. What's the matter."

She tries to catch her breath between sobs. I glance at Beau as he stares down at his twin with worry.

"Why doesn't she love me?" She whispers quietly.

Beau's eyebrows furrow with worry and curiosity. "Why doesn't who love you Bells?"

She doesn't answer, silently weeping to herself.

My heart aches as my bestfriend is in pain. Guilt slams through me too as I have been preoccupied with everything I forgot to check up on my bestfriend.

Some friend I am.

I know who she was talking about. I didn't forget what I saw at the Boo Bash. I just wanted Belle to tell me herself before I mention it first.

I continue to soothe my friend as she cries herself to sleep.

We make sure she is deeply asleep before we get up and leave.

"Do you know who she is talking about?" Beau's tone curious.

I glance up at him afraid to tell the truth. I didn't want to be the one to tell Belle's secret because I shouldn't even know. So I lie.

"No, she hasn't told me anything." A small lie because she indeed hasn't, but it didn't make me feel anything other than terrible.

He takes my lie, as he grabs my hand. We make our way downstairs to see the other two have on a movie now. Blankets were all over the living room. That's where the guys picked to sleep living the extra beds for the girls. My bed wasn't big enough to fit all of us.

Heath notices us, his hand outstretched towards me. I smile up at Beau to see he nods before giving me a kiss on the cheek.

Beau goes to take a sit next to Sin as I take Heath's hand. He grabs me tightly by the hips placing me to his side. His scent of sandlewood, surround me along with security..

I snuggle deeply into him placing my head on his chest. The rhythm of his heart beat calming me.

I could feel his fingers playing with my hair as we watch the movie the guys picked. My mind and body at ease in their company.
