#but my partner bought some death wish coffee (the best coffee) and i am drinking that right up đ
Love drinking strong coffee. Automatically I feel calmer, my mood becomes better, and my head feels like it has less aimless energy and static bouncing around inside of it making the world seem so much quieter. It also helps me get a better sleep with less severe nightmares if I drink it before going to bed. Top tier experience, would absolutely 100% recommend.

The Latest Scheme
Secret Valentineâs Day Gift for @prettyboysugden
Happy Valentineâs Day Lucy!
The Latest Scheme
Aaron was very frustrated. He had spent most of the afternoon trying to pick a car apart when he realized that there were actually working parts in good condition still on the car. He then had to be careful stripping the car and that had taken longer than usual and he still had another car to strip. He needed to finish this today as the pick-up for them was tomorrow. Adam had scoffed off earlier under the pretense of âneeding some time to work on his relationship with Vicâ which was mostly him grovelling to Victoria for his latest misstep.
He was hunched under the hood as he heard footsteps on the gravel leading up to the scrapyard. At this time and the way the person was walking, it could only be one person. Well that was it for the cars. They couldnât be finished by tomorrow and Adam was going to have to take them himself the day after and moan about it. He knew whatever he was here for at this time, it would not end well for Aaron.
He braced himself as he continued to work. At least he could pretend to resist the newest scheme for a bit longer. Who knew if he played his cards right he might even get him to help with the cars!
âI bought you coffee and a scone. Wanted to bring you cake, but there was only one slice left and I wanted that so you have to do with the scone Iâm afraid.â Robert said.
Oh this was bad. Aaron definitely needed a lawyer for this if he was being offered coffee and scone for free on a Wednesday afternoon.
âNo. Iâm not doing it. Whatever it is this time. I am not breaking into you ex-fiancĂ©âs home to steal her dadâs old dirty love letters or breaking into the safe to get his will, and I am definitely not impersonating a millionaire to steal his clients. I am done with your schemes to take over Home Farm. At this rate I will either end up back in prison or killed by that nut-job Lachlan!â his voice raised as he turned to Robert. By the end he was shrieking. Â
âCalm down, will ya? I am not asking you anything you paranoid freak! Canât I just bring my best mate in the whole wide world a coffee and a pastry?â Robert said teasingly with a smirk that Aaron knew meant death and destruction was on the way. He knew his friend well.
He took the coffee and the scone from Robert suspiciously. They both leaned against the half striped car. The truth was that his friendship with Robert had taken him by surprise. Almost one year ago, the two of them had found their ways separately back to Emmerdale. A series of bad decisions and even worst consequences had resulted in their first âmeetingâ.
Aaron shouldnât have been surprised on how often they got into schemes together. Criminal activity and misdemeanor was the foundation of their friendship. What was surprising that after accepting a coffee from Robert and a drink on a night out, they had hit it off immediately. Their bickering and Aaronâs temporary absence of âbest friendâ had resulted in them becoming fast friends. It was a mutually satisfying friendship.
Aaron had convinced Robert to tell Chrissie the truth about his feelings or lack thereof for her and break off the engagement after Lawrence threatened him yet again. Robert however, had taken his advice and blackmailed Lawrence; he would break if off with her, if Lawrence had made him a shareholder in the business. Obviously Lawrence had refused. This was how Robert had come up with the brilliant idea to steal old photographs and love letters of previous lovers that proved Chrissie might not be Lawrenceâs biological daughter. Obviously he couldnât get his own hands dirty and who did he know who could do it? Aaron obviously. That is how Robert ended up a silent partner in Lawrenceâs business, the main investor in Holy Scrap (as a thank you to Aaron for his hard work), Diddy Diner (because he was capable of caring for his family, thank you very much), and as of last month, an equal partner in Home James Haulage.
Robertâs interest in Home Farm was no longer necessary but as he was a grade âAâ control freak and couldnât let anything go if he could make more money out of it, he sometime still screwed with Lawrence. Aaron thought it was out of boredom mainly.
Now the reason Aaron was involved, or at least how he justified it in his own mind, was that he was a great friend. Case in point, Adam and how many times he had saved him. Aaron was ride or die for all his friends. That is what Aaron told himself and Chas and Paddy whenever they questioned his friendship with Robert. The truth though, was a bit different.
Aaron was totally in love with Robert. If he was honest with himself, he was insanely attracted to him from the first time he saw him and if Robert would show any indication that he might be interested, Aaron would confess his feelings on the spot. However, he knew Robert was straight. Aaron put it down as another case of unrequited love for best friend. God knows he already had the experience with Adam when they were kids, and as that experience had taught him, he would soon get over his feelings for him and instead become amazing friends. If he could only stop staring at Robertâs lips as he was sipping his Americano, then he would be fine. God those lips were just begging to be kissed.
âSo, there is something I need to tell you.â Robert said in a very suspiciously casual manner.
âI knew it! You want me to do something stupid. Why canât you just enjoy what you have right now and donât do anything stupid to ruin it?â
âWell because, Azza, I am not someone who can do that and anyway, you wouldnât like me if I was!â
âWho says I like you?â
âWell youâre still here. And might I add that in all of our shared endeavors, I didnât really have to persuade you. You could have said no anytime. You are just as bad as me!â Robert said with his signature smug face. God, Aaron could just slap him. Or kiss him. Whichever that would wipe that smugness off his face.
âSo go on. What is the price for this coffee that I have to pay? Are we breaking into a bank? Or perhaps organizing a hit?â Aaron said as he continued to sip his coffee.
âDonât be so dramatic, you dolt! Itâs nothing illegal. And certainly nothing that would get us in trouble. So you know that Chrissie has a sister, right?â
Aaron nodded. He knew that when they discovered that Chrissie was not Lawrenceâs biological daughter, Lawrence had done anything to keep that information away from his daughters, especially Rebecca, as he was certain that would cause a rift between his daughters.
âYeah. So?â Said Aaron.
âWell, what you donât know is that before I got engaged to Chrissie, Rebecca and I used to fool around. It got more serious with Chrissie so I ended it with Rebecca. She didnât have access to Lawrence as Chrissie did. She stayed away after that until she heard me and Chrissie are done. Now she is coming back. And the thing is that she never really got over me.â Robert said as if he was proud of the fact that someone had difficulty getting over him. Aaron could sympathize.
âSo what? You want to blackmail Lawrence some more now? Give me money or Iâll tell your daughter sort of thing?â Aaron said grumpily. He knew Robert had flaws. He would even concede that Robert wasnât going to win the best person award, but sometimes he wished he had a little bit if decency and not think of money and power all the time. It made Aaron more conflicted inside. He was best fiends (and maybe, sort of, kind of, a little bit, in love) with someone who didnât bat an eye at blackmailing and emotional manipulation. Well, Câest la vie.
âNo you idiot. Iâm done with them. Itâs actually the opposite of that. See Rebecca texted me a few days ago to let me know she was coming and I quote âso we could finally be together properlyâ and I donât want that life anymore. So what I need is something else.â Robert said. Strange thing was he kept his eyes down. It was the first time that Aaron had seen him like this. It was as if like he was almost shy about what he was about to ask.
âSpit it out then!â Aaron said impatiently.
Robert took a deep breath and blurted âwillyoubemyfakeboyfrienduntilshegoesaway?â
âYou what?â
âWill you be my fake boyfriend until she goes away?â Robert repeated slower this time.
Aaron was gobsmacked. On one hand that was the most outrageous request he had ever heard and he just wanted to laugh out loud. On the other hand, this was the plot of one of his many fantasies which normally ended with him under Robert. He didnât know to laugh or to cry. His lack of response must have alerted Robert.
âLook you donât have to do it if you donât want to. It was just an idea. If she thinks that she has a chance with me, she will make my life hell until I give in and play her game which is basically torturing her sister and I donât want to be dragged into another sibling drama.â Robert said.
Aaron composed himself enough to ask âbut you are okay with everyone assuming you are gay?â
âWell, bisexual actually. And this way I can finally come out to my family as well. Killing two birds with one stone and all.â
âIâm sorry; did you just come out to me?â Aaron asked. He was completely confused. Did that mean he had a chance with Robert? Did it mean that Robert was available to him? But wait a minute, if he was, then did it mean that Robert didnât like Aaron that way as he hadnât come on to him. Robert wasnât shy. If he liked someone he would just tell them. So that meant that he didnât fancy Aaron. Universe had a cruel sense of humor when it came to Aaron.
âTo be honest I thought you knew. Well at least we know you have a rubbish gaydar!â Robert had the audacity to say!
âSo what? You thought a little romance with the local gay will get the woman to back off? And why does it have to be me? I mean Finn would be a more believable option for you. I mean he is prettier and he hangs on every word you say. So why not ask him?â
âWell Finn isnât really my type!â
âAnd what, I am?â Aaron was hysteric now.
âWell yeah! I mean have you seen you?? You are fit and hot and very very sexy without even realizing it! I mean every time we walk into a bar, I am surprised that men donât just pounce on you!â Robert said with an animated voice. Aaron was speechless. Did Robert just say he was sexy?
âLook forget it. It was a stupid idea. You clearly arenât comfortable with it. Just forget about it.â Robert said while avoiding looking at Aaron.
âSo are we on tonight to watch the game? Is Adam coming as well? I can make some snacks if you wanted to come earlierâ Robert changed the subject.
Aaron cleared his throat. He couldnât believe what just had happened. Robert seemed to be embarrassed by his accidental confession and clearly didnât want to talk about it. Aaron suddenly felt shy as well. He never was good at taking compliments. And he didnât know if Robert was complimenting him or coming on to him. He decided to play along with Robertâs deflection.
âYeah, yeah. Adam said he would bring the beer. I can bring some crisps if you want. Say 5 ish?â
âNo need. I will be making fish and chips. Just come by 5 and weâll be all set.â
After a few awkward moments of silence, Robert chugged down the rest of his coffee, nodded his head and left the scrapyard.
Aaron could not move. He was sure that drool was falling down his face as he was unable to close his mouth. He was having an out of body experience. There was no way that Robert bleeding Sugden was attracted to him.
But it seemed that he was. He actually came out to Aaron and admitted that he found him attractive at the same time. It was as if someone had figured out all of Aaronâs deepest desires and had made them come true. So did that mean that he wanted to be Aaron? Surely he would have said something if he did. Instead, he had changed the subject and left. Perhaps Robert wasnât ready and Aaron could respect that. He would follow Robertâs lead and act as if nothing had happened.
He would definitely do that as soon has his heart stopped hammering in his chest! He needed some time to calm down first!
Tonight was a game night. It had become a semi-usual event that Aaron and Adam would go to Robertâs place a couple of times a week for watching football and playing games or watching films on Robertâs giant TV. If Andy and Robert were on speaking terms that week, he would sometimes join them.
For some reason, Aaron put extra effort into getting ready. He then felt foolish for taking extra time because it was just their usual football night. Nothing more.
He finally decided on his usual black jeans and black hoody. But in the off chance that the universe wasnât fucking with him, he put on his green sweater under the hoody. He felt ridiculous. There was no way that Robert wanted him.
A few hours later, he was completely convinced Robert wanted him.
It all started as soon as he got there with Adam. From the first moment, there was a charged feeling between them. It got so bad that even clueless Adam knew was something out of ordinary. Aaron was extra aware of Robert and he was trying so hard to not to be obvious that it was painful. During the game, Adam kept looking between them suspiciously. When Robert went to the kitchen to grab more beers, Adam finally snapped.
âHey, whatâs the matter with you two? Have you had fight or something?â
âWhat? No! Of course not!â
âThen whatâs with the weird looks?â
âThere are no weird looks! Shut up Adam!â
But when Robert came back Aaron turned red and turned away to look at the telly.
After the game, Adam was tired of both of them acting so strange, when Robert had gone to the loo, he ditched Aaron.
Robert came down the stairs a few minutes later. He froze on the doorway when he realized it was just him and Aaron.
âWhereâs Adam?â he asked.
âOh he just left.â Aaron was trying to sound casual.
Robert nodded his head and came to sit on the other side of the couch that Aaron was sitting.
âAnother beer?â he offered.
âNah youâre alright. I have to work early tomorrow and I donât wanna be hungover.â
âSo⊠fancy a movie? Or we could play some Fifa if you wanted?â
âWhat I want is you.â Aaron heard himself say. Fuuuuuuuuuck. Did he just say that out loud?! Judging by the way that Robertâs eyes widened and his face went red, it was safe to assume that yes, Aaron had said that out loud.
âI mean âŠ. Not that⊠I mean I want to âŠ. Look, just uhmâŠ. Could you forget I said that?â Aaron spluttered. He was an idiot.
âuhm⊠how⊠why⊠really?â Robert said in reply. He didnât seem repulsed by the idea. Aaron decided to take a chance. He had already ruined everything. What was a little love confession between friends?
âYeah. I mean I do fancy ya. I mean more than fancy⊠like sort of kinda inloveish ⊠yeah?â Aaron was hoping for a lighting strike or a giant hole in ground to swallow him so he could escape this utter humiliation.
Robert was silent for several excruciating moments. Enough to trigger Aaronâs fight and flight response. And since this was Robert, Aaron chose flight.
âSo I guess I will be going. No need to you know say anything. And I guess I will see you around. Or not if you know, you donât. So uhm. Yeah. Sorry. And thanks for you know. Yeah. Sorry.â Aaron said as he was pulling on his hoody and retreating to the front door. As he was about to open the door a pair of strong arms caught his arm and shoulder and turned him around.
Before he could say anything, Robert pressed him against the wall by the end of the stairs. His face was inches away from Aaronâs and he was directly looking at his eyes. Aaron held his breath. This was the look that had made him fall in love with him in the first place. The green eyes with such intensity, directing all of his attention towards Aaron. The heavy breathing and his parted lips was setting Aaronâs body on fire.
Robert finally broke the spell and looked at Aaronâs mouth.
âHow do you know that you love me?â
It took all of Aaronâs strength to form a response.
âBecause you are all I think about and every time I see you, it feels as if my heart wants to jump out of my chest.â Aaron said, without skipping a beat, looking directly at Robertâs eyes. The time for shyness and hiding was over. He had laid his heart to Robert. It was up to him to either take it or break it.
Robert was blushing which made his freckles more noticeable Aaron wanted to kiss all of them.
Robert took a step back. His face was unreadable. He had finally made a decision. He reached out with his hands and took Aaronâs hands in his. He brought one to his lips and kissed the back of his hand. He then looked at Aaron and smiled.
âYou know?â
âI know.â
There was no more words needed. Robert didnât let go of his hands as he took him upstairs. Aaron didnât think he would ever stop smiling.
Later as Robertâs head was cradled between Aaronâs neck and shoulder and they were catching their breath, Aaron remembered something from earlier.
âSo does that mean when you tell the Whites that you have a boyfriend, then it wonât be a scam anymore?â Aaron said as he was playing with Robertâs fingers.
âIs that your way of asking if I want to call us boyfriends?â Robert said while smiling into Aaronâs shoulder.
âMaybeâ
âHmmm, well I have a small confession to make. When Rebecca called before, I already told her I wasnât interested and I was seeing someone else.â Robert said.
âHang on a minute, so this morning, what was that? You trying to get in my pants by using a scam as an excuse?â
Robert lifted his head and looked at Aaron apologetically.
âWell, I wanted to ask you out but I didnât know how to do it. Iâm sorry.â He seemed genuinely upset.
Aaron looked at him with a frown for a second before deciding to put him out of his misery. He then cracked a mischievous smile which prompted Robert to bite his chin.
âOw! Stop it you muppet!â Aaron pretended he was hurt. Robert bent his head and kissed him where he had bitten him. He then turned to Aaronâs lips and they were both busy to think about anything else for a while.
âSo whatâs the latest scheme then, if not blackmailing the Whites?â Aaron said the next morning as he was drinking the coffee that Robert had just made. Robert turned around from the stove as he was making their breakfast. He was only in a t-shirt and underwear. He looked good enough to eat!
âWell, to be honest I am sort of bored with the Whites. But the other day I heard something particularly interesting that I think it would be an amazing thing to do with my brand new boyfriend.â He responded with a glint in his eyes. Aaron knew instantly that this was going to be one of those schemes that would either get them arrested or in feud with the locals. God he loved this man!
âAlright, letâs hear what am I going to go to prison for this time.â He already knew he would do it no matter what.
âHey I resent the implication that I would risk my boyfriend getting caught.â Robert protested.
âSoft lad. Go on, letâs hear it.â
âHow do you feel about puppies? Specifically how do you feel about messing with a couple of puppy breeders and potentially having to take over a breeding operation?â
Yup, he was in trouble alright.

NONE OF THESE QUOTES ARE RELATED
âOh, Garrett, letâs not talk about the time we âgot to knowâ one another. I know forty-five seconds was probably an all-time high for you, but trust me; most girls would prefer at least a minute,â
âIâm gonna be sick,â I say.
âIâm ordering you not to,â says Obi.
âAh, donât say that,â says Dee-Dum. âSheâs a born rebel. Sheâll puke just to make a point.â
âMaybe he just has a type,â I challenge.
âThe only type Carrick has is pretty with a vagina thatâs open for business.â
The promise of a cheap beer and a joint win out over chivalry.
âWhen I was in town earlier, I went to that store that sells English food, and youâll never guess what they had.â Her face is all lit up.
âAlcohol?â Thatâs just my wishful thinking that she bought me some.
Lisa trails after me, oblivious to my sarcasm and still gushing about Graham. âHeâs so gorgeous. Like unbelievably gorgeous.â Her voice lowers to a whisper. âAnd I hear heâs amazing in bed.â
I snort. âHe probably started that rumor himself.â
âWe donât need alcohol to have fun, Reagan.â
âYou sound like an after-school special.â
âYou look damn good in a Sentinel uniform.â
A hot flush that had nothing to do with embarrassment spread over me. âSo do you.â
âI know.â
I laughed outright. âWow. Healthy ego there.â
âStop being a bitch,â Magda spoke up, contributing her first words for the day.
âWhat? You got a patent on it or something?â Zoe returned
Him: How bout tmrw night? Iâm free at eight.
Me: Canât. I have the Spanish Flu. Highly contagious. I just saved your life, dude.
Him: Aw, I appreciate the concern. But Iâm immune to pandemics that wiped out 40-mil ppl from 1918 to 1919.
Me: How is it u know so much about pandemics?
Him: Iâm a history major, baby. I know tons of useless facts.
Shaking my head, I laugh. âGod, youâre soââ
âGood-looking? Hot?â
âI was going to say cocky.â
âEndearing, isnât it?â
âJust out of curiosity,â she says, âafter you wake up in the morning, do you admire yourself in the mirror for one hour or two?â
âTwo,â I reply cheerfully.
âDo you high five yourself?â
âOf course not.â I smirk. âI kiss each of my biceps and then point to the ceiling and thank the big man upstairs for creating such a perfect male specimen.â
So heâs a mutt,â he said.
âNo,â I said, looking at the shaggy bundle still baring his teeth in Judeâs direction. âHeâs well-rounded,â I added.
I fingered the lid of my coffee cup. âHe introduced me to that Blaze reastaurant on Thayer. It was really good.â
âI think it was the company more than anything,â Jared said, his eyes softening.
I explained his mistake and started writing it down in my own girlie script. âDo you see how I got there?â
Ryan nodded, unsure. âI see how you got there, getting there on my own is the persistent problem.â
âYouâre not old enough to drink,â he grimaced, ignoring my accusation.
I leaned closer to him. âWe donât tell the bartender that,â I whispered.
I just have a bad habit of lashing out at those I care about. Itâs a piss-poor excuse, I know, but I am sorry,â
âYou canât make her drink that many shots,â Shepley said. âTravis. Tell him.â
Brazil held up his hand. âIâm not making her do anything. For every shot she drinks, she gets a twenty. Itâs our present to her.â His smile faded when he noticed Shepleyâs frown.
âYour present is alcohol poisoning?â
âI drink,â he said. âI also smoke. But thatâs one thing they wonât let me do in here.â
âDisgusting. Iâm even less attracted to you than before.â
âWhat are you smiling about?â
âYou just said you were attracted to me.â His self-satisfied smile was contagious.
âYeah, but that was before you spoke.â
âIntimate relations. Intercourse. Coitus. Doing the deed. Nookie. Fornicating. Laying pipe. Screwing. Sex. Tapping that ass. Fucking. Need I go on?â
âI donât like country music.â
âNo one does. Just roll with it.â
Football is a religion around here, and he is the chosen messiah. Which sounds kind of sacrilegious considering the fact that heâs smacking a brunette on her ass as he leaves her at the classroom door.
"Nicknames are important. Feel free to pick one out for me. I can provide a list of suggestions. Big Guy. God. Master. Awesome Master.â
âHow about overweening ego?â I offer.
So if I did what my dad always wanted, Iâd be married, with two kids, no education, wondering which strand of pearls I should choke myself with before my husband comes home smelling like his secretary.
I feigned disinterest, kicked out my legs and got more comfortable on Dadâs recliner. âHer nameâs Lois, not Laney.â
Mom smiled. âWell, I think Iâm going to call her Laney. I like it better. It suits her.â
I scoffed. âYou canât just go changing peopleâs names, Ma.â
âWhy not, Bobby Jo?â she sang.
âWho the hell is Bobby Jo?â
She laughed under her breath. âYou are now.â
I laughed with her. âI think I prefer Lucas.â
âYou still didnât answer my question, Bobby Jo.â
"Garray already got to you, huh?â
âI think he must be an acquired taste,â I mumbled.
She sighs. Then a slight smile breaks through. âIâm going to miss seeing your ugly face every day.â
âShut up. You love my face.â
Her eyes roll. âYeah, itâs like looking into the sun.â
âSo beautiful it hurts?â I ask, unable to contain my smirk.
âBlindingly painful.â
âNext question?â
âWhy are you such an ass?â
I laughed under my breath. âEveryone has to excel at something, right?â
âWell, youâre doing a great job.â
Johnson pulls out some bills. âMy treat this time, yeah?â
âExcuse me while I take in this moment,â Rolondo says expansively, his arms open wide. âJohnsonâpunk ass, cheap motherfucker Johnsonâis paying.â
Gray and Ivyâs wedding. Now that was a drunken blur. Good times.
âI was thinkingââ
âUh-oh. This canât be good.â
âSmartass.â She grinned.
âYour team definitely has⊠potential.â
âI donât know if potential is the right word,â I tell her.
âOkay, but youâre going to have to snap the ball to me.â
âSnap the ball?â I make a face. âLike bend overâŠâ
His grin is evil. âAnd I put my hands between your legs. Donât give me that look. Dex does this for me every game.â
âIs this the point where I launch into a diatribe about the blatant homoeroticism found in football?â
âWhere have you been?â she asked. I arched a brow, fighting a laugh as the heat raced across her cheeks and down her throat. âWell hello, honey, Iâve been out boozing and whoring. I know my priorities are pretty off.â
âSara, you know youâre the only girl for me.â He laid a hand over his heart. âIâm just passing time until you realize that.â
Out of the corner of my eye I saw two girls at a nearby table watching his display with equal expressions of jealousy and dismay. âYeah ok. Cool it Romeo,â I said, laughing. âBefore you break every heart in here and start a lynch mob after me.â
âYouâre such a dick sometimes.â
I didnât lift my head. âDonât really think thatâs breaking news.â
And I like sex. Love good sex, elusive as it is.
âSex shouldnât be work,â he insists. âIt should be easy. Girls come to us, give us a good time, and we send them on their way with a nice thank you and maybe a pat on the ass if theyâre extra special.â
âI pity your bed partners.â
âThey have a good time,â Gray says. âA great time.â
âSure. You let them do all the work while you lay back like a lazy shit. Sounds awesome for them.â
He gives me a sour look. âWell, you sound like a girl.â
âIf I was one, I wouldnât be f**king you.â
âBut Henry really wanted me to go, and youâve been moping around the house lately.â
âI have not been moping!â
âStaring out the window,â she insists. âLike some tragic Jane Austen heroine.â
âAustenâs heroines arenât tragic. They are empowered.â
âSays you. All those repressed feelings and prideful denials.â Her snub nose wrinkles. âPathetic. Just own your emotions already.â
âHey.â
His smile grows. âIâve been thinking about you, Jones.â
âDonât strain yourself.â
I kissed her cheek and stood. âBesides, youâre the best mom Iâve ever had.â
âI bet you say that to all your moms.â
(In reference to the baby heâs carrying)
He raised his cynical eyes to her and grunted. "If he gives any indication that heâs going to shit or vomit, Iâm pointing him in your direction.â
âAnd they say chivalryâs dead.â
âWhat happened?â asked Hermione, her tone inevitably concerned. âI barely touched you.â
âShoulderâŠdislocated,â he rasped out.
âYou let me slap you when youâre injured?â
âI didnât let you slap me,â he replied drolly. âEvidently, itâs just a habit you have regardless of whether weâre in a relationship or not. Charming, by the way.â
âHow did you dislocate your shoulder?â
âFolk dancing.â
âDraco.â
âFighting bloody Death Eaters.
Obviously.â
Today I wore a pair of white jeans and a black sweater that made me feel as if I was seconds away from stripping off my clothes and finding the nearest pole. I glanced over my shoulder and Roth raised a brow as one side of his lips slipped up. âCan you walk in front of me?â
He chuckled deeply. âNot in this lifetime.â
On why he doesnt wanna be a gynaecologist  : âBut if Iâm going to have my hand inside a womanâs honeypot, Iâd much rather it be for pleasure than for work.â
The music is soft in the background, but soulful and deep. I like it. âWhatâs this? A study playlist?â
He shakes his head. âA playlist? Nah. Itâs the Black Keys. I buy whole albums, not individual songs. Iâm not afraid of commitment, babe.â
I smirk at his strange innuendo. âGood to know.â
âWhat will they do once I take you off the market?â I ask.
âI can only imagine the poor girls wandering around like a lost herd of sheep all summer, wondering where you went.â I risk another glance at the staring girls and shudder. âDo they even blink? Baa. Baa. Baa.â
âHow long do I have to keep up the happy part? Iâm getting a cramp.â
âThatâs the spirit.â He chuckles,
Matt helped her with her golf swing in the auditorium at lunch. Matt was the captain of the golf team, and Ariadne was thinking about joining, although first she had to learn how to play.
âCassie, why donât you put that book down and come learn how to golf?â Ariadne called to her cousin.
In response, Cassandra opened another book.
"Sound jealous, donât you?â
âNot likely,â I replied, turning my e-reader back on.
âUh-huh. Keep telling yourself that, sweetheart. One of these days youâre going to admit that youâre madly, deeply in love with me. Itâs my boyish charmâhard to resist.â
âIf youâd gone with your body being irresistible, it wouldâve been more believable.â
"Youâre going to do fine,â he says, rubbing my arms.
âDo not give me a half-time inspirational speech,â I order. The last thing I need is some rah-rah-rah about being my best.â
âSure. We can go to the bathroom and fuck away your nervousness.â
âIn my head, this went a lot smoother,â I offer.
âHow so?â
âUm, I guess I throw up my arms and say âsurprise,â and you say, âGoldie, youâre a sight for sore eyes,â and then I respond with, âyou, too.â After we get those awkward, trite greetings out of the way, you haul me into your arms and give me a movie star kiss. We pretend itâs raining and that weâre at the end of a Nicholas Sparks movie and you swear your undying devotion.â
âAccording to my mom, everyone dies at the end of a Sparks movie, so my devotion appears to be short-lived.â
âTrue, but the promised love is undying, so even after your ticker gives out, the devotion lives on.â
âWhat rhymes with insensitive?â I tap my pen on the kitchen table, beyond frustrated with my current task. Who knew rhyming was so fucking difficult?
Garrett, whoâs dicing onions at the counter, glances over. âSensitive,â he says helpfully.
âYes, G, Iâll be sure to rhyme insensitive with sensitive. Gold star for you.â
On the other side of the kitchen, Tucker finishes loading the dishwasher and turns to frown at me. âWhat the hell are you doing over there, anyway? Youâve been scribbling on that notepad for the past hour.â
âIâm writing a love poem,â I answer without thinking. Then I slam my lips together, realizing what Iâve done.
âI just have one question,â Garrett starts.
âReally?â Tuck says. âBecause I have many.â
[âŠ]
âHey,â I say as inspiration strikes. âWhat if I steal the words to âAmazing Graceâ? I can change it toâŠumâŠTerrific Grace.â
âYup,â Garrett cracks. âPure gold right there. Terrific Grace.â
I ponder the next line. âHow sweetâŠâ
âYour ass,â Tucker supplies.
Garrett snorts. âBrilliant minds at work. Terrific Grace, how sweet your ass.â He types on his phone again.
âJesus Christ, will you quit dictating this conversation to Hannah?â I grumble. âBros before hos, dude.â
âCall my girlfriend a ho one more time and you wonât have a bro.â
[âŠ]
(He texted her the love poem)
Her: Donât quit your day job, Emily Dickinson.
Me: Hey, u didnât say it had to be GOOD.
Her: TouchĂ©. D- on the poem. Canât wait to see your collage.
Me: How do u feel about glitter? And dick pics?
Her: If thereâs a pic of your dick on that collage, Iâm photocopying it and passing it around in the student center.
Me: Bad idea. Youâll give all the other dudes an inferiority complex.
Her: Or an ego boost.
All in all, Ellis seems like a decent man, and when the kids thunder out of the locker room and greet him like heâs Jesus Christ brought back to life, my opinion of him climbs higher.
âMy mom has officially dubbed you a âgood catch.ââ Dani takes a seat next to me on the back steps of the small two-story house where Iâve lived all my life.
I tap my glass of sangria against hers. âThatâs solid. Iâm going to put that on my Tinder profile.â
âJesus, sheâs hot!â Dani grabs my phone to pinch and zoom, first on Sabrinaâs face and then the rest of her body. âAre you sure sheâs not bi? Because itâs a crime that she has to suffer through life with a man.â
âI thought maybe youâd want to spend the weekend with me.â
And heâs quick to offer that reassurance again, adding, âNo expectations, by the way. Iâm not inviting you to, like, a three-day fuck fest or anything.â I snort.
My boyfriend, ever the wordsmith.
Hunter snaps, âItâs that we suck.â
Hollis tips his head. âYou got laid last night, didnât ya?â
The dark-haired freshman furrows his brow. âWhat does that have to do with anything?â
âEverything. We embarrassed ourselves in that game, got our asses kicked, and you still had chicks lining up to suck on your knob. Doesnât matter if we win or loseâweâre still hockey players. We rule this school, dude.â
âSpoken like a man without ambition,â Garrett says, his lips twitching.
"Uh-huh,â Logan says as if heâs in agreement, but Iâve known him long enough to be able to pick up on his sarcasm. âAnyway, this girlâŠsheâs the love of my life. Sheâs smart and funny and unbelievably compassionate. She forgives people even when they donât deserve it. Sheââ
âGood lay?â Pace interrupts.
âOh yeah. The best.â
"Was the sex really boring?â
âWhy is everything with you always about sex?â I pass the joint back. âAnd FYIâthe sex was fine.â
âFine?â He snickers. âWow, what a ringing endorsement.â
(Garrett when texting his âmanwhoreâ friend)
Garrett: Allieâs gonna crash in my room.
Garrett: Your dick can stay in your room.
"Did you have a girlfriend in high school?â I ask.
He waggles his eyebrows. âI had many.â
âOooh, what a stud.â
He sighed. âFine. I spoke with Hestia about your history lessons, arranged for you to begin self-defense lessons with Charonââ
âWhat?â Charon piped up from his end of the table. âWhen did that happen?â
âJust now,â Hades said around a bite of chicken. âIâm multitasking.â
âYou know, I donât actually have sex with every woman I talk to, Chess.â
âYou donât?â
âSo dubious.â He nudges me with his shoulder. âI do have some standards.â
âAnd they are?â
He gives me a cheeky look. âWhether or not I want to have sex with them.â
âYour vetting processes is foolproof, Iâll give you that.â
She exhales heavily. âIâm babbling.â
âIâm used to it,â I say, shrugging. âA lot of women lose their shit around me.â
Cassie rolls her eyes. âThey probably lose their lunches too.â
I interrupt her, clearing my throat loudly. âNo names,â I say, looking around.
âA code name, then,â she suggests. âI want to know if Horse ââ
I roll my eyes. âDo I need to ask why you picked that as a code name?â
âI was trying not to be subtle.â She runs her finger along the rim of her margarita glass and licks salt off her fingertip. âBecause heâs hung like a horse, obviously.â
âYes. I got the joke.â
âYeah, you should have, especially given the fact that youâve seen all of the goods.â
âIâm not referring to him as Horse,â I protest. âDonkey would be more appropriate, since heâs a jackass.â
âOh, that fits, too,â she says, laughing. âDonkeys have huge dicks.â
âConversation with you is always so classy, Sable. Itâs really a testament to how you were raised. Those classes in etiquette must have taught you a lot.â
âYou brought flowers,â I note flatly. Flowers from a football player? What kind of warped parallel universe did I just enter?
He shrugs. âChicks like flowers, donât they?â
âYour charm is overwhelming, only surpassed by your sexism.â
âIf you want, I can take these pants off and remind you what you were looking at.â
âThanks, but I had a late lunch. Iâm hoping not to vomit it up today.â
-Just a compilation of (I think) really great one-liners from books/fanfictions Iâve readÂ
