I'm in the shower when I hear a knock at the front door. I'm not exactly in any position to answer it.

"I got it!" Shanes steps are heard running towards the front door.

"See who it is first!" I call after him.

If Shank is on the other side of that door, he's gonna throw a fit because Shane answered it.

I quickly turn the water off and wrap a towel around me before practically running to the living room. Why? I don't know.

Seated on the couch is Schiz, talking to Shane about some comic book Shane has in his hands from his room. He looks up and me and his eyes are stuck to my legs before pausing at my chest and finally settling in my face. Heat floods my entire body from his gaze. He offers me one of his sexy smirks. I smile back.

"Morning." He says.

"Good morning. Imma get dressed right quick. Shane, where are your shoes?" I ask him. My son glances up from his comic book in horror at me.

"Mom! Go get clothes!" He rushes to his feet and starts pushing me towards my room. I hear Schiz laughing from the hallway.

I allow my son to push me into my room and close the door behind me before laughing myself. Because it's funny he doesn't want guys looking at me. I love that kid.

I put on some ripped jean shorts and a black tank top to attract the sun and hide any sweating I might do with all the moving.

Walking back out to the living room, I find Schiz still there, but a few others have joined too. Shank among them. I recognize Panik and Lynol but the rest are strangers. How had I not heard their motorcycles?

Shanks gaze burns into my body and I see the lust in them. He may not want me as his old lady but he definitely wants to sleep with me. Sucks to be him. I'll never make that mistake again. Not that I regret my son. I glance around the living room for Shane but I don't see him.

I turn to look in the kitchen but he's not there either. "Shane!" I call down the hall.

"I'm putting my shoes on like you said. Do you have clothes on now?" He calls back. My face heats up and I avoid looking at the guys taking up my living room. Schiz snorts.

"Yes, son." I reply.

My front door bangs open, making me jump out my skin, and in struts Lacie. I glare at her but my hearts not in it. She beams at me before coming over to stand beside me.

"Where's the wine?" She immediately asks. I laugh.

"All gone. I drank it all last night." And came close to kissing Schiz, I silently add. She groans.

"You're an alcoholic." I tease her. She shrugs, not disagreeing. Panik laughs as he comes over to wrap his arms around her waist. She leans into him with a satisfied smile. My heart drops a little. I want love like that.

Derek could have offered that- DID offer that- but I couldn't return those feelings. Because you still love Shank, my subconscious says. I roll my eyes at myself. Too bad he never held any feelings for me. And made it clear yesterday he never will. He made it Crystal where I stand with him.

Shane comes out, holding his rabbit. "I'm ready." He announces. He has on a blue plain shirt and kaki shorts.

"Is Mr Jingles coming too? He gonna help lift a box?" I ask sarcastically.

My son rolls his eyes at me. "Don't be ridiculous, mom." He says and puts Mr. Jingles in his small cage so he can go in the car. Shank full out laughs and ruffles his sons hair as he passes. Shane doesn't respond and I watch Shank slightly cringe at the rejection from his son.
