It's Always Been Briar

Chapter 29.

'What would you like to eat, love?' I ask her as we walk into my apartment. The door is unlocked so someone is home. Closing the door, I suggest we look at what food we have in the kitchen before we can go change. I wrap my arms around Briar as soon as we enter the kitchen. I look to see that everyone is in the living room. (Hunter, Chase, Lenny, and like 4 other people)

'We are going to change and make some food.' I tell them. They all nod and then out of nowhere Lenny is now hugging us. So I wrap my arm around her and add her in.

'Hey babe.' I said and I kissed her head. She looks up at me with teary eyes and my heart breaks. 'Riv, can I borrow Briar for a little bit?'

'Of course, take all the time you need Len. If you're not out here in like 30ish minutes, I'll come and check on you. Ok?' Lenny nods and I look at Briar. She nods and says, 'I got her, love.' I know she does.

I smile and kiss Briar. 'Get whatever comfies you want from my dresses and put them on.' I kiss her again and let them go. Briar smiles at me and they start walking towards my room. Once they are inside and close the door, I turn my attention towards the living room.

Wait, first, I need a fucking drink. 

Shit, we didn't even take a sip of water at the restaurant. I go to the fridge and grab a bottle of water, take it to the face. Throwing the bottle in the recycle bin, I am back in the fridge.

Briar has to be thirsty and I'm sure Lenny has had nothing to eat or drink all day. So I grab 2 regular and 2 coconut waters and take them to my room. Knocking softly on the door I say, 'Bri, I brought y'all something to drink.'

A few seconds later, Briar opens the door. I hand her the waters and she says. 'Oooo, I like it when you call me Bri!' Smiling, I lean in and kiss her smile.

'Is everything ok?' I whisper. 'No.' I hear Lenny say while sniffling.

Fuck. My face instantly changes. I'm now pissed off and I know it shows.

'Talk to you later, love.' Briar says while kissing me on the cheek and then closing the door. Back into the kitchen and to the fridge I go. I grab 2 beers and close the door. I open the first beer and drain it in like 2 seconds.

'Fuck.' I hear Hunter mumble behind me.

I open the second beer and turn around to drop the empty bottle in the recycle bin. I'm not looking to get drunk but I need something to take a little bit of the edge off. I am pissed and Hunter looks terrified. Walking into the living room, all the seats are taken. But that's not a problem I did not plan on sitting. Looking around I see some guys from the team and a couple of girls I've seen around. No one wants to say anything.

'Hey, Riv! How was your night? Didn't you and Briar go on a date?' Tony asks.

'Hey, Tony! Yeah we did, it was fucking great. It was wild man.' I tell him.

'Nice, what happened?' He asks while lifting his brows a couple of times.

'Ah, wish I could say but I don't kiss and tell.' I smile and take a drink of my beer.

'Since-fucking-when?' Fucking Reynolds scoffs.

'Since-fucking-now.' I say while I glare at him.

'Oh, so since you're fucking Briar, you want to keep your mouth shut now.' Why is he getting so upset?

'That's fucking right. Since I have a girlfriend I fucking respect. The best you're going to get Reynolds, is listening to us by my door.'

'Girlfriend? Really, River? You honestly think you can keep it in your pants?' He scoffs again, shaking his head. 'You think your dick will be happy with one woman and won't stray to get wet somewhere else?'

What the fuck?

'What the fuck is your problem? Yes, my girlfriend. I don't know why the fuck you are all bent out of shape. But I don't have to explain anything about my relationship to you. It's none of your fucking business. Keep Briar's name out of your mouth or we are going to have serious fucking problems.' I am burning up and breathing heavily.

'Ok, ok, ok. That's enough, Reynolds.' Hunter says. 'Riv, just let it go. Don't let it get to you.' I nod my head and look over at the smiling mother fucker.

I put the bottle to my lips and down it goes. Right as I am finishing it, I see Briar walk over to me. She puts her hand on my bicep and takes the bottle from my hand. I look down at her and take in all the details of her beautiful face. She is looking at me with eyes full of love. She is not mad at me or concerned, she just loves me. She changed into one of my LB football shirts and a pair of sweats.

Fuck, she's hot.

I follow her into the kitchen while she throws the bottle into the recycle bin. Then she turned to me and asked if I had her phone. I take it out of my pocket and give it to her, as well as her wallet. She grabs my hand and leads me towards the hallway. 'Why don't you come get changed.' She says.

I nod my head and follow her. Once we reach the hallway I pull her hand and put her back against the wall. 'River!' She exclaims and then starts giggling as I start peppering her with kisses all over her face. I move down to her neck and then kiss along her collarbone.

I latch onto her like a fucking vampire as I suck on her skin making her moan. She drops her stuff on the floor. She squeezes my bicep with her hands. 'River.' She whispers. 'Calm down, love. Let's go get you changed, yeah?'

I wrap my arms around her and pull her towards me so I can press my cock against her. She moans again when she feels that I'm hard. Finally, I release her skin and smile when I look at the mark I left, it's such a dark purple it almost looks black. I lean in and give it a small kiss. I look at Briar and I kiss her lips.

I move my hands down over her ass, to the back of her thighs, and lift her up. Her legs automatically go around my waist. I continue to kiss her and squat down to pick up her phone and wallet. Standing back up I turn around and head for my room. When we walk by the door to the living room, I hear Reynolds say, 'You can do better, Briar!'. I ignore him because I am so lost in Briar that what he says doesn't even matter to me. But it must have gotten to Briar because I feel her left hand leave my hair and then return once we reach my door.

She just flipped that mother fucker off! That's my girl!

After we get inside I pull away from her, trying to catch my breath as I put her down. I close the door and see Lenny looking sad as hell on the bed.

'Just forget Austin. He is just mad because I've turned in down every time he has asked me out since the day we first came to campus.' Briar says. I nod my head. No sense in getting more upset, I got the girl.

I decide I need to change first and then I'll try and talk to Lenny. So going to my dresser, I pull out a black shirt, black sweats, and a pair of underwear. Taking those over to my desk, I set them down and unbutton my pants. When I reach for the zipper Briar stops me.

'Woah. What are you doing?' She looks at me and then she looks at Lenny. I laugh and gesture towards Lenny. 'She has already seen it, love. Right, Len?' Lenny nods and looks at Briar. Shrugging she looks back at me.

'But I will go in the bathroom if you want, sweetheart. No problem.' I lean forward and kiss her cheek.

'Wait.' She puts her hand on my abs but is still looking at Lenny. 'Is that what you were trying to tell me the other night? That you saw Riv naked?' She asks.

'Yeah, I mean, I wanted you to know 'cause it happened earlier that day but I didn't know how to say it. I didn't want to make anything weird. Yes, I saw him completely naked. Yes, he is fucking hot. Yes, he is hung like a goddamn horse. Yes, he cums buckets.' Lenny tells Briar and I can't help but laugh a little.
