The Brooks Boys

Chapter Six

He takes a few steps back pushing me against the wall again, being careful not to break the kiss. His lips slowly work with mine as he starts to increase the speed and bites my lip lightly and catches every breath and moan I let out into his mouth. His smooth hands are placed at my lower back and start to descend lower and lower. How is his touch is rough but yet so soft? The butterflies fill my stomach again but this time they don't leave so quickly. I don't want this to ever stop.

"Beau. Beau, I think we should... go." I say struggling to catch my breath.

He finally breaks the kiss and moves to my neck. Planting a soft kiss on every inch of my collar bone.

"Okay baby," He says through the kisses. Suddenly being with him makes me forget everything. Troye who?

"But just promise me one thing." He continues.

"Yeah sure."

"Don't forget me after this."

"What do you mean?"

"I know your relationship is complicated and you're probably in no state to start a new one, but please don't be one of those girls. You know the ones that kiss me, just for the sake of it, then leave without a word? It seems as though nobody wants a proper relationship with me, ever. I know you're better than that Ellie."

In fact, he doesn't know me at all but the way he says my name sends shivers down my spine and I can't deny his offer.

"I won't I promise." I say and with that he parts from me. He takes my hand in his and leads me back down the corridor. Before he opens April's bedroom door he hands me a small piece of paper with a number on it.

"Call me tonight baby?"

"Yeah." I say and tuck the paper into my shoe.

Beau pushes open the door with his hand still in mine. As soon as we enter the room they all stop their conversation and look up at Beau and I. They all continue stare at us as we take our seats in the circle.

"We thought you guys were drowning or something in there! We said five minutes, not fifteen!" Luke remarks with a smile on his face.

"See, I told you guys she wasn't so innocent. She's a member of the secret slut services." Jai says looking me up and down in disgust.

"Oh lay off it Jai, just because she doesn't fancy the pants off you doesn't mean that you can be bitter about it!" April says, with a kind smile. We all start to giggle.

"Well I would tell you all about what we got up to in there but unfortunately I don't kiss and tell."

Beau says smirking right at me.

Luke restarts the game and spins the bottle of hair spray again. This time it lands on April.

"Truth or dare, April?" Beau asks. His hand is still intertwined my mine and we both look down at it and I pull it away. He looks up at me, but he doesn't seem to mind.

"Truth." She says quietly.

"What is your opinion on Ellie?" Beau asks. I look up at him but he avoids my eye contact.

"You can't do that you've already asked Jai that question." She says. Oh great. Why did he do that?

"Okay, pause the game. Lets all share our opinion on our new friend, Ellie." He says. Why is he doing this?

"You already know my opinion." Jai smirks.

"Well I think your amazing Eleanor. You're kind and you seem like a fun person." Luke says.

"Thanks Luke, so do you." I say back with a loving smile. At least I know one twin likes me.

"Eleanor, your so pretty and your easy to get along with. I can see us being good friends in the future." April says.

"Thank you, you are too." I reply. Beau is sitting there starring at me with no emotion on his face. We all wait patiently for his opinion.

"Beau?" April says to snap him out of his daydreams.

"Oh, yeah. Well your beautiful, but I bet you already knew that. And I can see you and I being more than friends in the future." He says and winks at me whilst bitting his lip. I smile and his green eyes gaze into mine. Jai is pulling vomit faces but we both ignore him.

"So... lets restart the game, shall we?" Luke says.

We watch the bottle spin round and round again. It stops on Jai.

"Dare." He says quickly.

"Eager are we?" Luke says teasing his twin.

"No, just give me a damn dare!" He says raising his voice slightly.

"Okay, but you asked for it... I dare you to go out with Eleanor. For a whole week. You have to really try as well. That means no name calling or arguing and you have to act like a couple. Until eight pm next sunday. You can't break up before then and if you cheat or do something to jeopardise the 'relationship' then there will be consequences."

What??

"NO!" Jai and I say in unison.

"I'm not going to pretend to date Beau's new fuck buddy."

"No she's not Beau's fuck buddy and she's not a slut. She's your girlfriend for the week and if you don't go through with it you will face public humiliation. That goes for both of you." Jai says. His tone is serious.

"I don't want to do this guys." I say quietly.

"A dare is a dare!"

"Listen Luke she said she doesn't want to do it. It was Jai's dare not hers, so don't drag her into it!" Beau says, his eyes are dark and his tone is harsh. He doesn't make eye contact with me. Is he upset? Or angry?

Beau looks at Jai with anger now clear in his eyes. Instead of retaliating or throwing out a sarcastic comment Jai just says,

"I'll do it."

"What?" My jaw drops at his words.

"I said, i'll do it. I've dated sluts before. How hard could it be?" He says with that disgusting grin spread across his face again.

"Fine." I huff. This is going to be a long week.

Beau stares at Jai and I with anger and disappointment on his face.
