OH MY GOD. What the hell just happened? I'm sweating and my body is on fire. The way that Gunner looked at me while dancing with that bimbo, has me feeling all kinds of things. Confused, being one of them. I should be thinking about my sweet boyfriend who is behind me, running his hands all over me. He's noticably hard and I'd like to say that that's the reason Im so turned on but I'm afraid that would be a lie.
I know I was dancing with Wes but it felt like it was Gunner who had his hands all over me. I wanted it to be Gunner and I could tell he wanted it to me he was dancing with. Wes turns me to face him and he kisses me. I open my mouth and meet his tongue. I try my hardest to forget about those big brown eyes so I put everything I had into this kiss. He pulls back and groans. He lowers his mouth to my ear and whispers "Baby, let's tell everyone goodnight and go up to your room." I look into his eyes and I feel terrible because he's a great guy but I've been pretending he was someone else all night. I look behind us and I don't see Taylor or Travis anywhere. I know she is going to grill me about whatever the hell that was on the dance floor when I see her, I have no idea what to tell her but I do have some questions for her too. Is something going on with her and my brother? They were looking pretty cozy on the dance floor. Wes puts his hand on my back and says "Babe, are you ready to go?" I glance up at where Gunner was dancing with that girl and now she is practically humping his leg while they kiss. My stomach turns. I have no right to be jealous. I was just making out with my boyfriend in front of him and I'm about to go upstairs with him. I was a little unsure if I would go through with it but seeing Gunner with her, decides it for me. Maybe Taylor is right, just gotta do it and hopefully I forget all about Gunner after.
I take his hand, smile at him and say "Yeah, I'm ready. Let's go find Taylor and my brother and tell them goodnight."
I don't look in Gunners direction as we pass by him, but he stops me by grabbing my elbow. " Alayna, what are you doing?" He says in a low voice. I stand tall and say "I'm going to find my brother and Taylor to tell them goodnight, then we are going upstairs." I pull my arm out of his grasp and I look at him for just a second before I take Wes' hand and walk away.
I don't see Taylor or Travis anywhere in here. I decided I'll just text them when I get to the room to let me know where I'm at.
" I don't see them, I'll just text them and tell them we left." I tell Wes. He nods and he leads me to the elevator. My stomach is full of butterflies while we wait for the elevator. I notice a vending machine around the corner. I tell Wes "I'm going to go check out the vending machine, do you want anything?" He looks down at me with a heated stare and cups my cheek and says "What I want isn't in the vending machine." Gulp... " Oh ok, well I'll be right back." I say lamely. I know my face is a million shades of red as I walk away.
Rounding the corner, I notice a couple hidden beside one of the vending machines and the wall. I try to give them as much privacy as I can and don't stare as I make my selection, as my water drops from its place in the machine, the couple jumps and starts backing out of their hideaway. I gasp. I can't believe my eyes!
"Holy fucking shit!" I say. Loudly enough to where Wes comes to see what is going on. He stops abruptly when he sees who I'm looking at.
Travis and Taylor stand in front of me, both disheveled from their make out session. "It's not what it looks like!" Travis blurts out and I raise my eye brow at him. "Oh, really?" I ask crossing my arms over my chest. This is unbelievable. " Yeah, we can explain!" Taylor almost yells. I give her a look as I say "Yes, please do, explain why my brother has your lipstick all over his mouth, Taylor!, Explain why his belt is undone and your hair is all messed up! I'm not an idiot.Ugh, this is so gross! I'm going to have to bleach my eyes after this."
Wes put his hand on my shoulder and he has a smirk on his face, apparently he finds this amusing. "Babe, leave them alone, everyone saw this coming with the way they were dancing." He laughs. Travis smiles and says "Yeah listen to your boyfriend, I think I like this guy." He states. I roll my eyes and grab my water. "Whatever, we were trying to find y'all to let y'all know we were leaving. Now I wish we never found you. We are gonna go but we are talking about this later." I point at both of them. Travis leans in for a hug. "Y'all are headed home? Are y'all ok to drive?" He asks. I shake my head no "No, not going home, we are going up to my room. It's been a long day." He pulls back from the hug and looks into my eyes and realization dawn's on him, almost like he forgot where we were, in a hotel. "Oh" he says. I shake my head up and down and then Taylor hugs me. She whispers where only I can hear " I'm sorry about the whole Travis thing, it wasn't planned." I nod and she continues "Don't do this if it's not who you really want it to be with Alayna, I saw y'all out there tonight. He feels the same as you." She pulls back and I get a lump in my throat. I nod but don't say anything. Travis is staring at me and Taylor and he says "Guys, can I have a minute alone with my sister?"
Wes kisses my forehead and Taylor gives me a little wave as they walk back down the hallway. Travis looks uncomfortable as he says " I just want you to know how proud I am if you. I wish mom could have been there today to see you cross that stage." He stops and clears his throat. My eyes well up and they threat to spill over. " I want you to be careful Alayna, if your uncomfortable don't do it . It may not seem like a big deal but it is, especially for the girls. I wish mom was here to talk to you about it because hell if I know what the right thing to say is. I'm not going to try and stop you but if your not 100% sure, then he might not be the right one." I hug him and say" Thanks,Trav. I love you."
"I love you too, brat" he laughs.
We find Wes and Taylor and we say goodbyes again. The takes my hand and leads me in to the elevator.
The elevator ride feels like it takes forever. I'm nervous, this is it. By bringing Wes up to my room, I've given him the green light. I think I'm ok with it.
When we get inside of the room, he backs me up against the door and he kisses my neck, down to my collar bone. Wow, ok just getting straight to it then.
It feels nice enough, so when he starts to lift my shirt, I let him take it off. He looks at me with an appreciating stare as his eyes land on my bra covered breast. He reaches behind my back and unclasp my bra and let's it fall to the ground. He kisses me again and this time I open for him. His hands are kneading my breast, he pinches my nipple and I arch my back. I can do this, this is good. Feeling better about my decision, I take his shirt off. He has a nice body, he's athletic and tan. He has that delicious v that leads down to where his pants are covering. I undo his buckle and push his pants down. He steps out of them and he is back on me. I can feel his hard erection right were I need it, I take my pants off as fast as I can. He picks me up and i wrap my legs around his waste and I grind against him. He moans into my mouth. He lays me down on the bed and hovers over me before he kisses me again. I close my eyes and get lost in the moment when he slips his hand into my panties and rubs the aching spot. He says "I've wanted this for a long time baby." He continues to use his fingers, he kisses me again. I can feel myself getting ready to come. My back arches off the bed and I say "Oh, Gunner. That feels so good." His hand stops and pulls away. My eyes shoot open as I realize what said.
Fuck, fuck, fuck. What the hell? Did I just say Gunner's name while another guy was fingering me?
He raises up and he looks me square in the eye. I've never seen this look on him before. He is pissed. Like livid.
I scramble to get up. "Wes, I don't know where that came from, I don't know why I just said that. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry."
He turns his head slowly, eerily slow. The look in his eye scares me. He walks to me slowly. "YOU'RE SORRY?! IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MAKE IT BETTER?" he yells. I back up a little. He closes his eyes and sighs. A little calmer, he says " You have made me wait months and months for this, and then you say another man's name? Ya know, I picked up on something between you two and I told myself I was paranoid."
" There isn't anything going on with me and Gunner, Wes. He's my brothers best friend and that's it."
"Dont fucking lie to me Alayna, I've seen the way he looks at you. Don't treat me like I'm stupid."
He starts to pick up his clothes and put them back on as fast as he can. I do the same.
When he gets to door, I say "I'm sorry Wes." He looks at me one last time before he opens the door. He gives a little sad laugh "yeah, there's nothing going on between the two of you, is there?" He ask and doesn't wait for me to answer. He walks out the door.
I went to close the door behind him when I noticed someone leaning on the wall across from my door.
Gunner.
