I fucked up.

I've really fucked up this time.

Why did I have to kiss her?

Of all the things I've done in my life this was probably one of the stupidest.

But why do I want to do it over and over?

"I need a drink" I mutter to Wes who eyes me with a shit eating grin on his face as if he knew everything that was going on in my head.

"Come on then Tuck"

A few of us headed to a bar that wasn't too far from the restaurant we were at. As soon as I walked in, I grabbed a beer and sat down at a table running my hands through my hair.

"Why do you look like that?" Monty J screwed his face at me.

"I've fucked up, like I've really badly fucked up"

"As long as you haven't lost us another sponsor it can't be that bad" Monz winked at me and I flipped him the bird.

I traced a bead of concentration that ran down the side of my glass trying to think of how I was going to explain that I had kissed Evangeline.

"Spit it out dude, seriously it can't be that bad" Wes huffed while taking a sip of his drink.

"I kissed Evangeline"

There was silence around our little table as everyone processed the information I had just blurted out. My leg bounced with nerves as I waited for someone to say something, preferably that I was stupid and that I should never do anything like that again.

The silence was broken by Monz and Monty J sliding a $20 bill each to Wes who had a massive grin on his face.

"Told you boys, our Captain can't keep his dick in his pants"

"You bet on me" I snap glaring at the three men I called my family.

"Easiest forty bucks I've ever made" Wes fanned himself with the cash before stuffing it into his pocket.

"So you're not surprised?" I ask cautiously while taking a sip of my drink.

"Hell no, you've been eye fucking the poor girl since you met her" Monz laughs and I shove his shoulder.

"Look Tuck anyone who spent as much time around Evie as you do would do the same thing. That girl is gorgeous and puts you in your place, a little kiss isn't going to make the world crumble around you" Monty J speaks out shrugging.

"It is only going to be a kiss right?" Wes scans my face as he asks the question.

There was a moment of silence as I thought about what he had just said.

"Yeah of course it's just that" I clear my throat, trying to convince myself that's all it could be.

The conversation moved on from me and it wasn't long before one beer turned into another, which turned into us stumbling our way back to the hotel.
