“Like age ever stopped you. Am I going to get a phone call from you, asking me to pick your drunk ass up?”
“Nope.” I grin. “Because the party is within walking distance of the hockey house.”
The downside? It’s at the football house. Normally, I wouldn’t step foot in that place, but it’s Aria’s birthday and her boyfriend is on the football team. They’re having a big party there tonight, and I’d be a shitty best friend if I didn’t go.
“Still, if you need me, call me.”
“I will.” I pull her in for a hug. “Love you, Lils.”
“Love you, Benny.” She pulls back. “I hate how much taller everyone is than me,” she huffs. “Soon, Raiden and Isaiah are going to be, too.”
“Sis, sorry to break it to you, but they already are.”
“You know what, like Bishop says, I’m fun size,” Lilly huffs again.
“I don’t need to know why Bishop thinks you're fun sized.” I groan, turning around and walking away before I end up knowing details about my sister's sex life I don't need to know.
I head back to my place, shower and change before going downstairs to meet up with my friends.
“Ready to get fucked up tonight?” Lucas asks.
“I haven’t gotten laid in days,” Danny groans.
“Is sex all you two ever think about?” I ask, chuckling as we step outside.
“Yes,” they say simultaneously.
Rolling my eyes, I shake my head. “How about we just go, drink, have fun, and not have sex?”
“What is wrong with you?” Lucas asks.
“Who hurt you?” Danny questions.
“If anyone needs to have sex, it’s you. When was the last time you got your dick wet?” Lucas asks.
“Probably not since Liam,” Danny states. “Dude, you need to move on.”
“I have moved on. Trust me, I don’t think about that asshole. At least not in a pining way. But I’m not the kind of person who just has meaningless hookups either.”
“Okay, fine. What if they weren’t meaningless? What if they were with someone you’ve got your eye on?” Lucas asks.
“Oh!” Danny’s eyes light up. “Roland.”
“What about Roland?”
“Don’t think we haven’t seen you checking him out any time you’re in the same room with him,” Danny laughs. “I say go for it. He’s hot. You know, if I liked dudes or whatever.”
I mean, I do know Roland is single, and he swings both ways. Maybe it was my mind making me think what I wanted to, but I’m almost positive he’s checked me out a few times.
“Maybe,” is all I tell them. “If the opportunity presents itself.”
“That’s what I’m talking about.” Danny chuckles, slinging his arm over my shoulder.
The party is in full swing by the time we arrive. Looks like we’ve got some catching up to do.
“Benny!” Aria squeals when she sees me.
“Hey, birthday girl.” I chuckle, scooping her in my arms for a hug. “Happy birthday. You look beautiful."
