“How did this happen?”

“How’d what happen?”

“You’re the best sexI’ve ever had and you don’t even wanna cuddle after,”Dennissaid, stepping into boxers while I zipped my shorts.

“Ew,no.”I scrunched my noseat the thought.“We’re not doing that. I have rules against cuddling and sweet kissing, too.”I found my bra near the coffin and was putting it on when I noticed his back.“Did I do that?”I touched a long line of bloody scratches.

“Yeah. While I was eating your pussy.I loved every second of it.”

“I’m surprised I didn’tpass out.” I was only somewhat joking.“Your skill level is insane.”

“I could say the same for you.”He watched as I tugged my shirt over my head.When I was finished, he was still looking at me.

“What?”

“How the hell did I get such a perfect bind?”

“Told you I’m worth the wait.”I put a hand on his chest and kissed him before walking away.“See you in a little while.”I smiled over my shoulder and left the room.

I was halfway down the hall when I decided to see what everyone else was doing. I continued past the bathroom and came to a stop at the living room’s entrance.“Hi guys,”I said, catching everyone’s attention.“What’re you doin’?”

“Trying to watch a movie,”Ari said.“For the record, these walls arenotsoundproof.”

“Eh,”I shrugged, “can’t say I didn’t warn you.I’ll be back. I’m gonna shower.”

“Try not to scream loud enough to break any windows while you’re in there.”

I laughed before practically skipping to the bathroom for a quick shower. Once that was finished, I checked the mirror to assess makeup damage and frowned at what I saw: emptyspace.

I groaned in annoyance. It’s still so easy to forget about this stupid mirror thing. To make matters worse, I forgot to bring clothes. I wrapped in a towel and pranced into the living room, where all eyes fell on me.

“Sorry!”I ran past the tv to my shopping bags.“Don’t mind me. I forgot clothes,”I explained, kneeling to dig for a brand new outfit.“Just pretend I’m not here.”

“You’re such a mess,” Arisaid.

“That’s what good sex does! Skewers the brain. I wish I could give Dennis online reviews. One hundred out of ten. Off the charts! I don’t know if you guys know this,” I pointed to Sean and Mateo, “but holyfuck,is your friend good in bed—”

“Jesus fuck, Emy—”

“Ten stars!” I concluded over Ari. “I’ll be back again.”I straightened up and left.

Back to the bathroom we go! I changed into an outfit that purposely showed off most of my new tattoo before fixing my makeup based on a guess of how a shower would usually ruin it—typical smudging and clumped mascara, easy fix—then went back to the living room barefoot. I’ll wear shoes if we go somewhere. I continued to the kitchen, then spotted a pizza box and pulled it out. A yummy treat sounds fun.

“Can I have some of this?”I asked, leaning across the bar divider to hold up my prize.

“It’s not mine.”Mateo glanced at me before going back to the movie he was half watching.“I think Dennis got that.”

“Perfect.I’ll take that as a yes.”I opened the box and grabbed a plate. Hmm… there are three pieces left. Meaning one for him and two for me! Yup, that seems fair.

“You’re really gonna eat his food?”Ari asked as I came back with a plate of cold pizza.

“Of course not. This is mine now.”I sat and picked up a slice, trying not to smile at the way she was cuddled up against Sean. He had an arm around her and she wasn’t even acting shy. This is a definite improvement.

I started eating and kind of watching the movie, but quite honestly I’m a bit too hyper to pay attention. I started dancing to the music in my head while I ate. I need to run some laps or something. I have way too much energy. This is a problem. I need to readjust.

“Emy, are you okay?”
