“Why are you shirtless?” Jamie asks Cam.
“He’s trying to turn Noah on,” Hunter says.
“What!?” Jamie glares.
“Shut up. No I’m not!” Cam glares.
“I have to do his oil, but I need to buy the shit for it, brakes are done.” Hunter says. “How the fuck do you even get into a car with him? How did you not hear that noise?” Hunter asks.
Noah shuffles his shoe on the step. “What happens in that car is between me and Miss Britney.”
“He’s talking about Britney Spears.” Hunter blinks at Jamie. “That’s your boyfriend.”
Jamie bites a smile, nodding. “Babe, stop listening to your music so loud. Please be safe in the car.”
Hunter shakes his head. “I’ll buy the oil tomorrow and send you my bill. I’ll make sure to check the breaks again in a few months.”
We walk toward the rest of the guys. “There’s still time to run,” I whisper to Aiden. “I’d be scared too.”
“I’m not scared,” he hisses as we walk up the steps.
“Who’s hotter, me or Hunter?” Cam asks.
“Hunter.” Mark gets up, shutting his game off.
“You, babe. Of course, you.” Bo kisses Cam.
Noah grabs for Jamie’s arm, wrapping it around his shoulders, and a small smile spreads wide along Jamie’s lips. It makes me envious.
I want someone to look at me like that.
CHAPTER NINE
SAWYER
“I think I made a mistake,”Aiden whispers, glancing down at his cards.
“Well, too late now.” Hunter smirks at us, freshly showered now—without Noah or Bo’s assistance—wearing sweats and T-shirt.
“There’s plenty of food, help yourselves,” Jamie says to us.
“Mark, don’t forget you have a penalty.” Noah smiles.
“This is so stupid.” Mark grumbles.
“What happened?” I ask watching Mark take his shirt off.
“Mark tried to wear extra clothing the last time we played. He knows there’s a six-item maximum.”
“Who makes these rules?” Aiden looks at his cards. “This isn’t poker.”
“Can I have a drink?” I ask Hunter. I’m going to need it.
“Smart.” Hunter gets up and grabs a drink for me. “There’s plenty.”
“I want a drink too.”
“You drove. No drinking,” Jamie says to Aiden, looking at his cards, and I smirk, shrugging and taking a sip of my beer.
