Good, now I can really let my hair down.

CRANE

I’m torn.

Kai would die if he knew what Sierra was doing; dancing on a fucking pool table in front of nearly every college guy we know.

She’s a senior, and a lightweight.

I pinch the bridge of my nose, knowing there is no way I can leave Sierra here, and Liza flips her shit when I tell her she’s going home alone tonight.

“I don’t owe you shit.” I shrug, aware that Jaden is staring at Sierra like she’shisgirl. “I never said we were fucking exclusive, Liza.”

Liza is incensed.

I mean, I get it, we’ve spent most of the night making out fairly heavily, but I don’twanta fucking girlfriend.

I don’t need the extra stress.

“Crane, come home with me. Please,” Liza begs, and I sigh, shooting a gaze at my best friend’s little sister who is showing far too much fucking flesh for my liking.

“I can’t.”

Liza follows my gaze, folding her arms.

“Tell me you haven’t got a thing for Sierra-fucking-Carson,” Liza snarls, waving a hand in Sierra’s direction. “She’s a slut!”

“Fuck off, Liza.”

“Excuse me?”

I shake my head, not wanting an argument with her.

How did I get into this with her?

It’s casual sex, nothing serious.

“What's the difference with what Sierra is doing with your ex versus what you’re doing with me?” I shrug, getting more fucking annoyed by the minute. “In fact, fuck this. Shall I order you an Uber?”

Liza laughs, shaking her head.

“No thank you, I’m going to hang out with my girls. I’ll leave you to drool over a girl that you can’t have.”

Is that what she thinks this is?

I won’t be able to live with myself if anything happens to Sierra, and I’m quite enjoying getting out of my mind. I’m still cradling the whiskey that has plenty of life left in it yet.

It’s got nothing to do with anything like that.

But then I’m drawn to Sierra, like a moth to the fucking flame.

She’s doing that sexy dance girls do so well, even when they’re fucked up, the one where she gathers her hair into a pile on her head, shaking her hips from side to side as she releases her hair, her hands trailing over her curves as she mouths the words to the song.

Jaden is fucking mesmerized, and I can’t blame him; she is ridiculous.

Kiki is nowhere to be seen, but the guys are getting too close to Sierra for my liking.
