Chapter 1: Scotch

"Not even bothering with a glass anymore are we, Colin?" I teased the preppy man as I watched him gulp down scotch from the bottle He chuckled slightly as he sat it on the pool table, leaning over the table himself to line up a shot.

"Everyone's gone now," he reasoned humorously, "No need to fake civility." I glanced around the room in slight disbelief, he was strangely right. I hadn't noticed, but everyone seemed to have deserted us. Colin's apartment was empty except for us.

Logan was with Rory in New York until tomorrow night and Finn had left with a redhead hours ago. Not long after that the party had died down; it was a well documented fact that once Finn was gone the party was basically over.

"Your go, Steph," Colin motioned towards the table as he leaned heavily on his cue. I took a sip of the champagne I had in hand, eyeing my best friend over the rim of the glass carefully.

This was pathetic… He hadn't sunk a single ball since we started playing three hours ago. And I suck at pool!

"You're being stupid," I told him blandly, earning a surprised eyebrow arch mid-swig, "Did you really think that you and Miss Milk Maid would be together forever?"

He lowered his bottle slowly, his voice quiet and his eyes distant, "No."

"So stop moping," I stomped my foot at him, "She's so not worth this!" Colin shrugged, so I continued, "I found her kind of dumb anyway."

"She was pretty smart for a milk maid," Colin defended her by reflex. Gah! He was so frustrating.

I scoffed, "For a milk maid." Then in a sing-song voice I teased him a little, "Mr. Vanity strikes again." I downed the last of my champagne, setting the glass on the edge of the table.

Colin nearly choked on his scotch as he started to laugh, "If I was only concerned with looks I'd just date you!" I paused for a second, unsure if that was Colin or the scotch talking.

My three glasses of champagne helped push me forward though and I found myself flirtatiously playing along, "So why don't you then?

Dramatically he rolled his eyes, "Who could put up with the constant chatter?" I giggled at this, he had dealt with the 'chatter' since we were six!

"You listen to it anyway, Colin," I sashayed around the table, eyeing him mischievously as I stole his scotch right out of his hand. I watched him leer at me as I downed the last bit of scotch left in the bottle before letting it clatter to the floor. I turned around, finally looking back at the pool table to take my turn.

"Maybe I should be paid back for all my trouble then," Colin whispered in my ear from behind, his voice strangely husky. I'd never heard it like that before and it sent a shiver running up my spine as his lips latched onto my neck. He touched me with a fierceness and a fire I never would have associated with my oh-so-straight-arrowed Colin.

My cue slipped from my hand and fell to the floor as my eyes fluttered close in euphoria. Letting my sense of touch cloud over the rest of my senses with passion. The feeling of his mouth moving around my neck and shoulder, nipping at sensitive spots to bring amicable sounds from me. And his hands… They were driving me insane as they whispered down my sides and over my stomach, his fingers grazing over the skin of my exposed midriff, causing goose bumps.

I gasped out in pleasure as I pressed up against Colin, feeling his arousal rubbing against my bottom. I lifted on arm behind me, wrapping it around his neck and lacing my fingers into his brown hair. My other hand slide between us, skimming up the inside of his thigh playfully.

Colin groaned into my neck, a sound that sent my adrenaline rushing. I turned around in his arms and Colin pushed me up against the pool table. His mouth took mine for the first time and I swear I felt electricity running through my entire body!

His tongue slipped into my mouth, sending my mind into overdrive as his hands slid down my back before grasping my bottom. I let out a gasp, Colin's name tumbling from my lips as he picked me up to raise me onto the table. I could feel the green felt rubbing against the tops of my thighs beneath my short-shorts as Colin stood between my legs.

I gripped his shoulders tightly as our kiss passionately heated up, our bodies pressed together as close as physically possible. I felt his warm hand dancing across my bare back, hot against my skin and setting my entire body aflame with want. And then his other hand came up to my face, fingers traipsing across my cheek softly.

We broke apart briefly for air, our eyes meeting for a moment before Colin pulled me back in. His eyes had been dark with lust; a wild passion was obviously hidden behind that preppy exterior and now it was attacking me full force.

Colin's hands moved slowly but surely, confidently feeling each inch of my body as he slipped them underneath my shirt. He cupped my breasts, his thumbs rubbing over my erect nipples tauntingly. Moaning, I moved my hips against his instinctively, enjoying the feeling of his hard erection reacting to my movement.

The shirt was pulled swiftly over my head, breaking our kiss. I smirked at Colin seductively as I moved my hands down to the buttons of his shirt. One by one as I opened the white dress shirt I kissed down Colin's chest, leaving little nips and marks as he had on my neck. It was only fair after all…

When the last button popped open I sat back up, pushing the shirt off his shoulders and to the floor. I pulled him closer to me by his belt, slowing kissing him as our chests were pressed skin to skin. Colin deepened the kiss, turning the embers from smoldering to roaring hot as we basically pawed at each other.

I tugged his belt off and threw it sideways to the ground. Colin pushed me backwards, knocking the balls behind me away as we scooted onto the table. Grinning up at Colin I couldn't help but tease him breathlessly, "You finally managed to sink something."

Colin chuckled darkly, nuzzling my neck before he began to assault my breasts with his mouth. Beneath me the green felt rubbed against my back as I arched into him, my hands lacing into his hair and gripping hard before pulling him back up to my mouth.

"I'll sink something else too…" Colin murmured against my lips as his traced along my waist band before snapping open the top button of my shorts. I giggled lightly before drawing him in for another kiss, my hands going towards the snaps for Colin's slacks.

I woke up with a slight buzzing in my head, groggy, and feeling oddly sweaty. A small movement for comfort told me I was wrapped in the arms of someone very naked and very male. My eyes shot open and my body up as I tried to focus my mind on what had happened last night.

Looking down I saw Colin just beginning to stir and it all come flooding back. I blushed as Colin looked up at me. He was holding his head, no doubt already nursing a massive hangover with a throbbing headache. His eyes locked on me instantly though, lust darkening the brown iris and awakening feelings in me that I had never affiliated with Colin before last night.

We sat awkwardly on the pool table, staring at each other without a word. And then my phone rang, making us both jump. I scrambled to find it in the mess of clothes strewn around the room, being careful not to step in the broken glass from the champagne flute.

It was an alarm telling me to get ready for the gala my mother was hosting tonight. I quickly started to redress, stealing Colin's shirt since mine seemed to have disappeared and I was in a bit of a hurry. I stopped at the door; Colin was just buttoning his pants.

"I'll see you tonight," I rushed out finally, leaving before he had a chance to stop me. Not that I'm sure he would have.

I scurried quickly to my car and drove like mad to get to Hartford and my parents' home. I was suppose to have been there ages ago for make-up and hair. Not to mention my mother expected me to help her run the event tonight!

Even when I pulled into the drive of the massive mansion though I found myself unable to get out of the car. I sat anxiously waiting for a way to sneak in without anyone seeing me to hit me. My father absolutely spoiled me, but I doubted he would deal with seeing me in a post-sex, slightly hung-over state particularly well…

Taking a deep breath to steady my nerves I got out, deciding to make a run for my room. It was probably the best option right now. The door was unlocked and I walked through the foyer and up the stairs without any problems.

"Stephanie?" a feminine voice called my name from behind, looking over my shoulder I saw my sister-in-law Amanda. The perfect society woman in each and every way, I was so not in the mood to deal with her! So instead I rushed down the hall towards my room.

Once inside my old sanctuary I snapped the door shut and collapsed against it, forehead resting against the cool wood. I just needed to get showered and changed without anyone else seeing me and I was golden...

"Nice of you to join us, dear," my mother's voice spoke sarcastically, I jumped. Turning around I found my mother with her team of stylists set-up in my room. Gowns were on racks and the two women I knew to be hair and make-up were leaning against my vanity.

My mother was eyeing me, up and down. I pursed my lips, knowing I looked far from presentable, "I kind of need to shower first…"

"No kidding," Her sardonic reply came as I walked quickly enter the bathroom, my face flush.

When I came back out in a robe and sat at the vanity I watched my mother walk into the bathroom herself. I scrunched up my face in confusion, earning a scolding from Nell the make-up girl. But my face soon turned to horror when I saw her walk out, Colin's shirt in hand.

She was examining the tag closely, a smirk playing across her face, "So you and the McCrae boy finally did something? I told your father he wasn't gay."

I gaped at her, which only made her grin wider.

Review?

A/N: Just to clarify, I used the word 'Gay' in the title to play off its original meaning of happy, Colin's lack of it, and how Steph's mother uses it in the fic for being homosexual. It is not meant offensively, I just thought it would be an interesting title given the content/subject. So I apologize if you take it badly, it's all meant in good humor.
