LIAM
––––––––
“We’re on our way toRyder’s birthday,” I tell Jayden, who is on speaker.
Jessie thinks this is a game.She reaches over and rubs my cock.I grip her hand but keep my eyes on the road.
“Tell him happy birthday from me and that he’s getting old,” Jayden laughs.
“You can tell him that my face is too pretty.”I grin, indicating at our off ramp.
“Says you,” he taunts.
“Says half the women in the world,” Jessie pipes up.
“How are you, baby sister?”Jayden asks, with zero awareness that she’s currently trying to get to my dick.
I watch her roll her eyes.
“I’m twenty-five in a few months.You’re going to keep calling me that when I’m fifty, aren’t you, big brother?”
“Probably,” Jayden answers.
I chuckle.
These two have always playfully bantered, but underneath all this normality, a storm is brewing.Neither of us are being honest with each other, and its fucking shit.
“How’s the conference?”I ask, knowing it likely ended four days ago.
“Boring.Learning a lot, though.”
Liar.
Then again, so am I.
I’m almost certain he extended his time in Atlanta for a girl.But why lie about it?I couldn’t give a flying fuck if he wants to take a week off and fuck some woman in Atlanta, France or Timbuktu.
“When are you heading home, Jess?”her brother asks.
She snaps her head to me.“Um, haven’t decided.”
“Well, you can’t stay with us forever.It’s Liam’s house, and he doesn’t want my kid sister in the room next door.”
Jessie glances away while I fight the urge to console her.I don’t.Because it just makes me more of a liar when I learn who has hurt her and put an end to this sexual relationship.
I have to.
Do I want to fuck her, sinking deep inside her with my cock?Yes, I fucking do.I want it more than oxygen.
But that’s taking this a step too far.
When I shut this down, she can console herself with the fact I never penetrated her.
It’s not much, but it’s something.
So when are you going to start probing?
I wriggle my jaw.
