When I finally got home, it was storming outside. The thunder and lightning shook the house. I step into the house, I can hear Evan's angry voice scream from a distance. Drew is in the living room watching some crime drama show. Chase whines as he runs around the house.
"Oh, hey Brooke." Drew says simply, smiling at me. "Evan made tacos for lunch."
"Where's Evan?" I say confused.
Drew is quiet for a few minutes, biting his lower lip nervously. I sit down next to him and wait for an answer. The dirty blonde haired man then looks to me.
"Bob's pissed." Drew says in a lower voice, "Evan have you and him both a week off with regular pay."
My mouth goes a gap. Can Evan do that? I thought only the boss can do that? I look outside at the dark clouds.
"Can he do that?" I say in shock.
Drew is as surprised as I am. "He can't—but he did anyways."
Great, now things are gonna get worst. Shit! I tremble at the sound of the loud thunder.
"Now the office is gonna get worst." I say in a lower tone.
"I know what Bob did." I look to Drew, who is already looking at me on a very serious manner. "I have to ask you something and I need you to promise me, okay?"
"What?" I say confused.
"Please don't break my big brother's heart." My entire body goes white and I feel hallow, "Evan has NEVER been attached to anyone. Not like he is to you. Not to me, or mom, or Lindsey and Malory. Not even to any of his girlfriends."
"I would never purposely hurt him, Drew. I love Evan." I say honestly.
Drew nods. "It's just—Evan has spent 37 years searching for someone who makes him tremendously happy and I would really hate to see him spend the next 37 years trying to get over you."
I am at loss for words, unable to respond.

In bed, I sit on Evan's lap, leaning against his thighs. His strong hands firmly hold my waist as I fiddle with his silver chain necklace and his bare chest. His dreamy blue eye stare up into mine seriously.
"You are aware that you could be arrested, yes?" Evan doesn't find the humor in getting Renee to take her pain meds like I do. "It would be a lot harder to save you then."
"I'll just buy her food and a new picture frame." I kiss Evan's cheek, "She'll forgive me."
Evan shakes his head at me. "How did you even meet them?"
"Well—" I think back to our history together, "I met Lucy Freshman year of college. She was so excited to be a teacher and I just wanted to be an English major. And I met Renee at our favorite coffee shop downtown. It was her first day and she spilled coffee ALL over me." I burst out laughing "And it wasn't even my coffee."
"Yes, well, I would have been angry if any of my friends pulled that little stunt on me." The thunder roars outside, "I thought maybe she was dying or something."
"I did, too." My finger trails down his chest and down to his happy trail. It only leads me to my happiness. "I have to spend more time with them. They feel neglected."
"Well, I'm having the guys over tomorrow." Evan's hands rubs my sides, thighs, and ass. "Maybe you can invite one of them to come over. I've never met her before."
I think for a moment to where I'm going to get a picture frame that I know Renee would love. I'm gonna put a picture of Renee, Lucy and I in it that day we went tot he zoo.
"I need to go to Hobby Lobby tomorrow. Can you take me early in the morning?" I say softly, "I don't have my car here."
Evan arches a brow as his eyes focus on my body as his hands touch my skin. He begins to bite his plump, lower lip. Feeling kinda hot, I lift his chin and make him look at me.
"Baby, my eyes are up here." Instantly, I feel him get hard underneath me. "Tisk tisk, too bad we ran out of condoms last night."
I begin to "squirm" on top of him. He bites his lip as he lightly grunts, holding onto my body tighter.
"Damn it, Princess! Quit teasing my manhood!" He groans, "Am I gonna have to bend you over my knee and spank you?"
I chuckle happily, biting my lip as I go in for a slow kiss. Oh damn. The thing he does with his lower lips where he drags it against mine and just barely touches my skin as he kisses me. I lick my lips, "accidentally" brushing them up against his lips. When I look into his eyes, they are already staring at me softly. I let my lips lightly brush his once more before laying half my body on his. I listen to his strong heartbeat
"What do you want for our one year anniversary?" He kisses the top of my head, rubbing my bare shoulders to warm me up.
There's honestly nothing Evan could give to me—well, besides his penis and a romantic dinner.
"The Book Publishers position?" I joke, making him chuckle.
His hands somehow find themselves under my arm and in the crook of my neck. I begin screaming and laughing at the tickling sensation. Evan sticks his tongue out at me as he tickles me. I beg for him to stop but he doesn't. In fact, he does it harder. He ends up chasing me and pinning me down as he tickles me harder. In the end, tears fall down my face as I recover from all of his tickling.
