Higher (East Knights book 1)

Monty

Tuesday 6:13pm

I hear the doorbell ring from the back porch. Trying my hardest not to wake Maggie up I get up to go answer the door. It's the pizza Ivy mentioned earlier. "Thank you." I say handing the boy around 5'6 a 20 dollar bill. I close the door behind me leaving the boxes on the counter in the kitchen. I open the fridge to see it fully stocked with everything you could ever need. Water, veggies, fruits, ahh beer just what I was looking for.

"Nice to see you again Montgomery" I hear from behind me. "Fuck!" I whisper probably louder than I should before hitting my head on the top of the fridge. "Sorry." I apologize handing the unopened beer over to Maggie's father. He shakes his head and hands it back to me. I study him before opening it and taking a swig of alcohol. "Hand me a water." He demands pointing towards the fridge. I nod and take it out handing it towards him.

"So," He starts before taking a gulp of the overpriced water. "You and Mags back together?" He asks not making eye contact. "Yeah." I say confidently before making my way over to the counter, where he's standing, "Good." He adds nodding his head. I look up at him shocked, that is not at all the response I was expecting. "Don't fuck it up this time." He says anger lining his tone. "Seriously," the room goes silent for a minute while we both continue drinking our beverages. "You fuck it up and it won't be pretty." I nod in understanding.

Maggie stumbles into the kitchen wiping her eyes from the nap she just took. "Daddy!" she screeches as she makes her way into his arms for a hug. "Hey baby, just talking to Montgomery." He says turning his eyes to be in contact with mine. "It's Monty sir." I reply as they break the hug with each other. He clears his throat before turning to look at me. Maggie walks over to me as I put my arm around her shoulder. "Montgomery, it was nice talking with you. I'll see you tomorrow Maggie." He says slyly before walking out the front door.

"Not sure he likes me very much." I add pulling out another beer for myself. "You're not wrong." Maggie says with pizza shoved in her mouth. I laugh at her before I take a piece off her plate and take a bite out of it. "Hey," she whines, "Not fair." She adds making a puppy dog face. "Oh shut it." I say laughing at her before giving her a quick peck on the cheek.

I take my beer and the slice of pizza I stole from her and make my way back outside, with her following behind. "I see why you smoke all the time," She says adjusting the chair across from me so she can sit down. "It's nice," She adds. Maggie plops her thin, freshly shaven legs on top of mine as I reach to pull out another blunt. "Wanna smoke?" I ask not expecting her to say anything. "Why not," She shrugs dropping her eyes down to her plate. "You don't have to." I say acknowledging the fact that she might not

"Hey," I say moving her legs off of me and sitting on the arm rest of her chair. "For real babe you don't have too, I'm not trying to force anything." I add trying to get her attention back to me. "No I know," She whimpers wiping the tear from her face. "It ju- just," She pauses and looks up at me before saying anything else. "It just makes me really hungry." She adds looking back down at her plate. "Yeah, trust me I know." I laugh trying to make her feel better.

She doesn't. "I just need to lose weight is all." I look her body up and down before saying anything else. "Lose what?" I say mocking her. She looks up at me slightly annoyed before dropping her face back to normal. "Nothing you don't get it." She says putting her plate on the floor to stop herself from eating anymore. "Don't get what?" I pry, I know I shouldn't but I can't help it. "You're not in the fashion industry you don't have people telling you you're too fat everyday." She blurts out before getting up off the chair and walking over to the sliding doors. She stands there for a few seconds before turning back to me and crossing her arms over her chest.

"You're not fat." I say as I make my way  towards her. "Honestly you're not fat." She uncrosses her arms, but instead of looking at me she turns and walks back into her room. "Maggie." I say after her. "Margot!" I yell and she turns to look at me. I put the blunt in between her lips and pull out my lighter to light it for her. She's so sexy. She takes it from between her lips and blows the smoke onto my face. Fuck. I could take her right now. I take the blunt from her and take a few hits of it before sitting on her bed. I can feel her starring at me. We're both thinking the same thing. Only question is who's gonna give in first?

I look up and down her body, while she stands in front of me, taking in a few more hits before handing it back to her. She takes a couple more before handing it back to me. When she does she decides to take her shirt off before coming closer to me. Fuck. Is the universe on my side today or what? She straddles me as I take the last few hits of the blunt before putting it out in my empty beer bottle. Suddenly I feel my lips being devoured by hers. I let my hands explore her body like they are used to. They go all the way up her back until I reach the clasp of her bra undoing it and letting it fall between us. Her lips move from mine to my neck, her hands tugging at the hem of my shirt. I help her pull it off of me, throwing it on the floor beside us. She pushes me back further on the bed while kissing down my torso. I can feel her hands reaching for my pants but i'm to impatient and already have them down to my knees before she can. I pull her lips back up to mine as my sweats stumble to the floor.

Once I reach for her shorts we hear someone stumble in the hallway. "Fuck." We both say frozen in shock. "Stay here," I say picking up my beer bottle and slowly walking towards the door. I open the door slightly peaking my head out to see who it could be. Nothing. I open the door and signal for Maggie to lock it once I'm about to close it behind me. "Hello," I say stupidly making my way closer to the front door that was left open. "Dude put some pants on." I hear from behind me. I turn around to see Kevin in the kitchen rummaging through the fridge. I took the last beer, probably what he was looking for. "What the fuck dude." I say before walking up towards him and hitting him on the arm.

"Monty!" Maggie yells as she runs into the kitchen. "I thought you died don't scare me like that." Kev laughs. I eye him before saying anything. Maggie runs up to him for a hug before sitting down at the kitchen counter. "Wanted to say hi to my favorite person." He says head still in the fridge. "I drank the last beer." I say waving the empty bottle in front of him. He looks down at my boxers before bringing his eyes back up to the bottle in the air. "Yeah, well mini Monty looks to be awake. Is that how you were gonna scare off the robber." Fuck. He and Maggie laugh as I walk back into her room to put my sweats back on. "Outta pocket," I start as I walk back in. "We were in the middle of something." I add looking down at Maggie.

She sighs and points to Kev who's still rummaging for God knows what in her fridge. "Kevin alcohol no here." I say in a voice directed at a child. "No shit." He replies back. "Then what are you looking for?" Maggie adds getting up and moving towards him. "I left some money here last time I stayed." Um, he did what? "Why?" I ask out loud waiting for his response. "Cause I thought no one used the fridge here." He adds looking up between both Maggie and I. He's not wrong. "He's not wrong." I say to Maggie when I feel her eyes starring at me. She shrugs in agreement before pushing Kev out of the way to look herself.

"You two have fun." I say before making my way back outside to smoke my last blunt.

Tuesday 8:16pm

"He leave?" I ask excitedly as Maggie makes her way out onto the porch. "Yeah," She replies. "Back to what we were doing?" She asks batting her eyelashes. Fuck yes. "Fuck yes." I repeat out loud nodding my head. She straddles me again before taking my shirt off her perfect body. I wrap my hands around her waist pulling her closer to me while I kiss down her neck.

Before we go any further she hops off of me and drags me inside throwing me down on the bed behind me. She climbs on top of me pulling my sweats down my body. She puts her hand inside of my boxers while I plop one of her nipples in my mouth. This right here is all I could have asked for. Fucking the girl I love, baked as fuck.
