Okay, onto NYE!
"When are your parents leaving for Aspen?" Ana asks as her heart rate slows. They had just finished another round of car sex and Ana was getting a little tired of the close quarters.
"I hate it too baby" he whispers kissing her head as he sits up and slowly pulls out of her.
"Well I don't hate it… but… I mean if we were only doing this like once a week… hell once a day, maybe it wouldn't be so bad" she giggles. "But you've got me in here like morning, noon and night!"
"You're exaggerating"
"Am not!"
"Well I can't help it, I can't get enough of you" he nuzzles her ear. "And if I recall, I was dragged out of bed at 9 am yesterday morning because someone couldn't wait"
"I brought you coffee!"
"Well to answer your question they leave tomorrow morning and you and I will have two glorious nights alone. Well somewhat alone, Elliott and Mia will be here. Have you figured out what you're telling your dad?"
"Well I was thinking I would tell him the truth…"
He stares at her with wide eyes. "And then he locks you up until we go back to school and I won't get to see you at all for New Year's Eve?"
"My dad isn't that unreasonable"
"He's a dad and you're his baby girl, and I'm the big bad man that's violating her" he smiles as he bites down on her shoulder.
She rolls her eyes. "Fine, option B is someone from high school"
"Better"
"But I don't know how I'll be able to swing the second night" she says as she pulls her shirt back on.
That night at the Grey House:
"You two" Carrick says pointing at Christian and Elliott. "You need to look out for your sister while we're gone."
"We will, Dad… Geeze, I don't even know why you're leaving her here? You know I'm going out. And Christian is too consumed with Ana to notice anything else" Elliott said rolling his eyes.
"Because she didn't want to come, and frankly your mother and I wanted some alone time"
"Ew dad. Spare us" Christian says
"Oh and like I wanted to hear about your shenanigans Mr. Rolling in at 5 am smelling like sex"
Christian covers his eyes. "Dad"
Elliott howls with laughter before wrapping an arm around his shoulder. "That's my boyyyy"
"Elliott" Carrick warns. "Look she's going to her friend's house for New Year's Eve anyway and we told her she could stay at Jessie's the following night if she wanted to. So just check in on her every once in a while but my guess is she won't be here much"
"Fine. I'll make sure she doesn't get into the medicine cabinet or drink any cleaning products" Elliott rolls his eyes.
"El" Carrick sighs. "So, you're going out I know, but in case you were thinking about throwing a party…" he says looking at Christian
"I'm not, I already told you. He's going out and Ana's coming over"
"Is she staying the night?"
"Define the night"
"Christian" Elliott warns.
"What do you think they're doing at Harvard, their neighbors for fucks sake!" Elliott jokes
"Language, Elliott" he says rolling his eyes and pinching the bridge of his nose. "Just… be smart, Christian"
He rolls his eyes "I know, dad"
"No drinking and driving"
"We know" they say in unison.
"Alright, you guys have money?" They nodded as the healthy allowance they get was more than enough for alcohol and they only asked for money when they really needed it. "Well you know where I keep cash in case of emergencies."
The next morning, Carrick and Grace were loading up their car to go to the airport.
"Have fun in Aspen… not too much fun though" Christian jokes.
"Bring me back something!" Mia squeals.
They loaded them up in the car as they all stand on their porch and wave to them. They're barely out of the driveway before their moving everything out of the living room that could be broken.
"Mia, I swear to God, two drink limit" Elliott warns as he moves some of their crystal vases off of the mantle.
"Oh please, I can probably drink you two under the table." Mia rolls her eyes as she moves her mom's favorite lamp into a closet.
"Yeah right" Christian rolls his eyes. "Two drinks is probably still too much. She'll probably be hammered, El"
"Did I look hammered two nights ago when I came home from Jessie's?"
They whipped their heads to look at her. "What does that mean?"
"It means her parents were out of town, she threw a party and I had about 7 beers and still managed to have a coherent conversation with mom and dad and do a statistics problem set before I went to bed. Lay the f off guys, I'm almost 16 and I go to private school… what else is there to do around here."
Christian shrugs. "I guess we were about that age"
"7 beers Mia!?" Elliott asks. "You make me so proud" he jokes.
"Alright we need to talk about who you're inviting. Christian's in college, but your my baby sister and your 15. I don't want to be corrupting all of your little friends. I'll go to jail" Elliott laughs.
"Come on just Jessie"
"Fine. JUST Jessie. And if her parents find out, you two stole alcohol and I had no idea." Elliott eyes her
"We know the deal, El. I would never get you in trouble"
"Fine. If the cops show up you immediately go to your room"
"Are they going to show up?" she asks with wide eyes.
"I don't know we're expecting a pretty big turnout. C, how many of your knucklehead friends are coming?"
"I don't know maybe like 15 or so?"
"And I'm expecting around the same. So it could get a little loud. Not that anyone could really hear us, and only a few people are parking in our driveway… but just in case"
"Well Jessie will be here in an hour. Can one of you take us to the mall?"
"Miaaaaaa" Elliott whines. "Kate is coming over soon… I don't want to be disturbed" he says eyeing them both.
"Yeah right, like I would bother you" Christian said rolling his eyes.
"Hey, I won't! Christian" she says giving him her best puppy dog eyes.
"Fine, I'll drop you guys off. How long are you going to be?"
"I don't know a couple hours?"
"Fine, just text me when you're ready. Ana is coming over around 3."
Meanwhile in the car with the Grace and Carrick:
"You know they're throwing a party, right?" Grace asks as she shakes her head thinking about her 3 very sneaky children.
"Of course. They must think we're stupid" Carrick chuckles.
"Do we trust them?"
"I trust Mia" he laughs.
"And Christian most times" Grace concurs.
"They're smart kids… they drink too damn much. But they're smart as shit. They won't do anything stupid. I'm most worried about our younger son and this Ana Steele" he says rubbing his lip.
"Oh? What are you worried about?"
He shoots her a look that said 'What do you think?' "Come on, Grace"
"Well… I think they're being smart. I think she's so sweet. I never thought anyone would be good enough for my baby boy" she giggles.
"I agree, she is something. She's got some gumption that's for sure"
"And you're not worried about Elliott?"
"Elliott is 21, almost 22… not 18 and he is about to graduate with a job. If he gets her pregnant at least he has a degree and will have options."
"True"
Ana is packing her bag to leave for Christian's when her dad comes into the room. "Ready for lunch?"
"Yep, just finishing getting my stuff together"
"Now you'll be safe. It's New Year's Eve. Lots of crazies out there. No driving once you get there, right?"
"Of course" she smiles.
"This Christian going to be there?" he asks with a raised eyebrow. She hated lying to her dad, but Christian was right. He wouldn't take too kindly to it.
"Daddy…" she sighs. "Yes, okay?... But he's not staying the whole night. Just girls sleeping over"
He nods happier with the second half of the answer. "Now I'm sure you're going to be drinking…"
She gasps and draws a hand to her chest "Never"
"Anastasia" he warns.
"Well… I am not of age, so I have no idea what you're talking about" she giggles.
"Remember what I told you?" he shakes his head.
"A lternate between alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. Of course! Words to live by!" NOT. I drink the non-alcoholic drinks at the end of the night when I'm hammered and trying to trick my body into not giving me a hangover.
"That's my girl" he smiles.
"Got big plans with the guys?" she asks referring to some of his best friends from the Army.
"Not big plans, just thinking we'll have a couple drinks and play poker."
"I'm glad you actually have fun… I would hate to think you just sit at home waiting for me to call when I'm at school" she teases.
"Yeah right. It's been a party here ever since you left" he teases back.
"Well no drinking and driving." She warns throwing his constant words back at him.
"Yes ma'am. Now let's move it, I'm starving. And I'm sure you're ready to get to your New Year's Eve started" he laughs.
After lunch, she heads over to Christian's and is surprised not to see him back from taking Mia to the mall so she shoots him a text.
Hey baby, sorry I thought I would be back by now. I stopped to get cups and a few things. Doors open. Help yourself to anything.
Kay! See you soon.
She walks inside and it's dead silent. "Hello?" she calls out. She thought maybe Elliott was there, and Kate came over hours ago so she thought. Maybe they went out. She shrugs and sits her things down at the bottom of the stairs and walks through the house and hears a loud thump. "What the…" she walks towards the noise and stops dead in her tracks at the entrance to the den on the other side of the kitchen. "Oh shit!" she said covering her eyes at her very naked best friend and from what she could see her boyfriend's very well hung older brother. Jesus… must run in the… wait they're adopted!
"Ana?" Kate looks up.
"Sorry! So sorry!" she says backing up with her hands over her eyes. About 5 minutes later, they walk into the kitchen
"Jesus, Ana. Don't you knock?" Elliott jokes as he grabs a bottle of water from the fridge.
"Well Christian said to walk right in! I'm sure he wasn't expecting you to be getting it on in the middle of the room where anyone could just walk in. There wasn't a door to knock on!"
"Well we obviously weren't expecting you yet"
"Oh hush, El. We're all friends here" Kate giggles. "Besides tit for tat, right? How many times have I walked in on you?" she laughs and rolls her eyes.
"That's different. You actually don't know how to knock sometimes"
"Like I thought my goody two shoes best friend would blow off class to blow her boyfriend" she says rolling her eyes.
She turns bright red and widens her eyes. "Kate!"
"Someone talking about me?" she hears from behind her and sees Christian strolling in looking smug.
"Yeah you sent your girlfriend in and Kate and I were christening Mom's new sunroom." Christian laughs loudly and catches a glimpse at Ana who is clearly still embarrassed. "You laugh, but you forget she'll be here for two nights. I would lock the door if I were you" he laughs as Ana blushes deeper.
"Oh Ana you know I'm just kidding right!" he said wrapping an arm around her. "Alright let's get this party started!"
"Well I have to go pick up Mia in an hour so my drinking is being delayed a bit aaaaand" he shoots Ana a look that makes every muscle down south tighten.
She smiles and bites her lip giving him the signal that they need to get naked. Now.
"Oh get out of here. Kate and I will go pick up Mia from the mall. I have to pick up alcohol anyway" he laughs.
"Perfect" he says grabbing Ana's hand and pulling her to the stairs. "And we'll definitely be locking the door" he winks at Elliott causing him to laugh loudly.
They're basking in the afterglow of their afternoon delight when he asks "Did you want to invite any of your friends tonight?"
"Ummm most of them are going to Pat's…"
"I'm sorry that you're not going to Pat's too. I know he's your friend"
"Hey. I would much rather spend the night with you" she says climbing on him and straddling him.
"I wish Sean was here though" he says
"Awww does someone miss his best buddy" she jokes. "Let's FaceTime him"
"We're naked" he says
"True. Let's just call him" he says grabbing his phone from the nightstand.
"GREYYYYYY what's going on, bitch?"
"And just who are you talking to, Mister!?" Ana giggles.
"Banana! Shit did you call me?" he says pulling his phone away from his ear.
"No I'm on Christian's phone" she giggled. "How are you, what are you doing? We miss you!"
"I miss you guys too, and even that blonde pain in my ass. I'm on my way to my friends place. His parents went to Vegas for the night"
"Oh fun! We wish you were here"
"I wish you guys were here. Next New Year's Eve, we all have to do something together"
"Deal" her and Christian say in unison.
"Well I gotta go, before they pull me over yet again. My parents are ready to beat my ass over these speeding tickets and if I'm on the phone I'm fucked."
"Alright, bye Seanny! Talk to you at midnight!"
"If I'm coherent enough to answer the phone" he laughs. "Bye guys, Happy New Year if I miss ya. See you in a few weeks"
About 8, people started to trickle in and they started the round of introductions.
"And this must be the famous Kate!" a group of guys surrounded her picking her up and hugging her before setting her down.
"Hi" she giggles and Ana breathes a brief sigh of relief that they actually knew who she was. Maybe he's more serious about her than she thought. She shrugged and nuzzled her nose into Christian's freshly shaved neck.
"God you smell amazing" she sighs.
He pulls her head out of his neck and stares at her. "Are you trying to have sex?"
"I'm always trying to have sex" she giggles. "But I just think you smell nice."
"Oh. Well thank you Ms. Steele. You always smell delicious" he growls in her ear.
"CG" a tall well-built guy comes over. "El told me you went and got yourself wifed up in your first week of college. Have I taught you nothing?" he jokes.
He laughs "Shut up Jeff. Jeff this is my girlfriend, Ana. Ana this is my brothers asshole best friend since they were kids"
He pulls him into a hug and ruffles his hair. "That's Mr. Asshole to you" he jokes. "But I'm just kidding" he says turning to Ana. "It's really nice to meet you. Elliott raves about you"
"Really? Well he's pretty awesome too" she smiles.
The night is going on without a hitch. Everyone was having a blast, and on their way to extreme intoxication. Ana was slightly worried that some of the girls that she hadn't met would give her some trouble but everyone was extremely welcoming and nice. She was even more thrilled that she didn't have the misfortune of meeting any party-crashers that had slept with Christian.
"I can't wait to get you out of this dress" she hears a voice and feels his warm breath in her ear and it makes the hairs on her neck stand up. "I am going to devour you, Anastasia." She knew this voice. This was the voice of her drunk and extremely horny boyfriend. She giggles and spins around and smashes her lips to his moaning in his mouth at the familiar taste of tequila.
"I'm going to devour yoooou, Christian" she scrunches her nose as she runs her tongue along the rim of her glass never once breaking eye contact.
"Let's go upstairs"
"It's so early"
"Just… just for like a little while"
"Later"
"Come on, just let me suck you dry" he whispers in her ear. She's about to concede due to his filthy, naughty words when Elliott comes in.
"BRO, pong, you and me let's go"
"Well I was—"
"You can fuck Ana later, let's go" he says pulling him away from her. She's about to head off to find Kate when she sees Mia stumble into the room with Jessie in tow.
"Oh my gosh this is so much fun" she giggles. "ANA!" Mia barrels over to her and hugs her tightly.
"Hi Mia" she giggles. "How much have you had?"
"Only liiiiiiike" she looks at her hands. "This many" she says holding up two hands and accidentally dropping her solo cup of beer in the process. "Oooopsies!"
"It's okay, I got it" Ana says grabbing some paper towels and cleaning it up. "Maybe you should have some water?"
"No way! I am fiiiiine. You sound like my brothers…. But I guess you are like my big sister now" she giggles. "My mom thinks you and my brother are going to get married"
Ana is sipping her drink when she chokes and immediately starts coughing. "Wh-wha-what?" she stammers out.
"Yup. Mar-ried" she says putting emphasis on each syllable. "But I mean… my brother is so in love with you he can't see straight. So it's a pretty safe assumption"
Her mouth falls open. Is this what people think? That Christian and I are just a done deal? Do I think that? Does he think that? I mean it's been four months… FOUR. She gives Mia a weak smile.
"You're so pretty"
"Thanks, Mia, you're pretty too"
"Guys don't notice me though, I'm sure guys hit on you all the time, driving my brother fucking crazy" she giggles.
"Mmm not so much. And definitely not when I was your age"
"Well you must not notice. I mean… I've had a thing for Christian's friend Dylan for forevvvvver. He's always been so nice to me but he'll never notice me… like that"
"Well you're 15 and he's 18. Maybe he thinks you're a little young for him."
"No, I'm just Christian's little sister and I'm almost 16!" she starts to sway back and forth and Ana is starting to notice the signs that this girl is more than a little drunk.
"Well you'll always be that. But when you're 18, maybe they'll see you a little differently" Ana winks.
"You think?"
"I do. You're gorgeous, Mia. But you still have tons of growing up to do. Hell so do I!"
"To growing up!" Mia says as she pours three shots of vodka.
"Mia, is that such a good idea?" She really didn't want to seem like the wet blanket or the mom and wanted Mia to like her but she knew a drunk girl when she saw one and she was crossing the line into blackout territory.
"Yes, relax. Come on, I'm at home. My bed is right upstairs. I'm safe. One shot"
"Famous last words" Ana jokes. "Okay, one shot"
"I AM NEVER DRINKING AGAIN" Mia coughs as she vomits into the toilet. That shot unfortunately came right back up moments later and it's only by the grace of God that she made it to the bathroom before it got everywhere. "It huuuurts Ana"
"I know, but I swear it will be over soon." She says rubbing her back and grabbing the glass of water that Jessie brought her.
"Don't tell my brothers"
"I won't" Ana smiles as she pulls her hair into a pony tail
"Promise?"
"Regretting that last shot, huh?" Jessie jokes.
"Shut up Jessica" she growls as she throws up again.
"Yes Mia, I promise"
"I think I'm done" she sighs as she sits on the ground and wipes under her eyes.
"Maybe no more drinking for you?"
"Are you kidding? Throwing up means making room for more drinking!" She says reaching for her drink as Ana pulls it out of reach.
She chuckles at her own personal words to live by in high school… and still sometimes. "Mia…"
"I promise no more liquor"
"You promise?"
"Swear!"
"Okay if I see you with a shot even near your lips I'm telling your brothers." Ana says sternly before smiling.
"Deal!"
"Where have you been hiding?" he asks coming up behind her and sliding his hand between her legs
"Christian!" she gasps looking around as there was a crowd of people in the room thankfully all too drunk to notice.
"You look sexy as fuck in this dress"
She giggles. "Well thank you, you look sexy as fuck in this" Ana says looking him up and down fixating her gaze on his crotch.
"Eyes up, baby"
Her eyes shoot up and she giggles. "I need you" she whispers.
"Now?"
"Right fucking now"
While Christian and Ana dart upstairs the party is still in full swing. Mia had switched completely to water after brushing and re-brushing her teeth.
"Why Mia Grey, where have you been hiding all night?" She hears a voice behind her and feels her heart start to race. Be cool, Mia. Be cool. Don't act drunk.
"I've been around. You're the one busy being the life of the party as usual" she teases.
"Hey, can't help being so cool" he says jokingly.
"Always so cocky"
"Oh Mia, you wound me!" he says putting a hand to his chest. "I prefer confident" Is Dylan Pearson flirting with me? Oh. My. God.
She rolls her eyes "that too"
"So what's new how's school? Making the boys chase you around?"
"Oh yeah" she says rolling her eyes again. She sees a look in his eyes that she can't quite place but chooses to ignore it. "What about you? How's the windy city?"
"Eh, it's okay. Definitely miss home though"
"Well it misses you too" shit Mia. Shut up! No more alcohol at all tonight. She says sitting her cup down."I mean like your parents"
"Oh just my parents?" he says narrowing his eyes at her and shooting her a smile that made her heart skip a beat.
"Well yeah who else?" she rubs her hands together as she feels them start to sweat.
He shrugs. "No one in particular"
There's an awkward pause and she shakes the thought out of her head that maybe he was seeing her differently. "I should go find Jessie, make sure she's still alive" she says scurrying from the room before she could do anything humiliating.
It's nearing midnight and they're all gathering around the large flat screen in their living room to countdown.
Christian pulls Ana into his arms and kisses her. "You're early, we're supposed to do that at midnight" she says as he pulls away.
"I want to kiss you every minute of every day Ana, fuck midnight. I couldn't wait" He rests his forehead against hers and wraps his arms around her.
She grins as she feels her heart flutter at his admission. "You're pretty amazing, you know that" she whispers. "I love you so much"
"ALRIGHT HERE WE GO!" Elliott cheers as they all start chanting.
"10…9…8…7…6….5…4…3…2…1…HAPPY NEW YEAR!" They all cheer and clap and many people seal it with a kiss to bring in the new year.
"Happy New Year, baby" Christian whispers against her lips. He tucks a loose tendril of hair behind her ear and pulls her into his chest.
She breathes him in as her face is nuzzled into his chest. "Happy New Year to you too"
Christian and Elliott are both so wrapped up in Ana and Kate that they don't notice someone being pulled out of the room.
"Ow!" she says as she's being pulled into the pantry in their kitchen. "What are you—" she's silenced with lips on hers. Soft, wet lips on hers and a tongue slipping into her mouth and a hand in her hair. She wraps her arms around his neck running her fingers through his curls as he lifts her off of the ground and pins her to the door. She feels him push into her and feels a pooling in her pelvis that she has never felt before. She has never been kissed like this before. Most of her friends had given their V cards away and she felt leaps and bounds behind her friends not really seeing what the fuss was about. She got it now. She moans at the feeling and almost if that was the reality check he needed he puts her down and backs away from her.
"Jesus." He runs his hand down his face. "I can't… you're fifteen"
"I know how old I am" she snaps pissed that the best kiss of her life with a guy she's had a thing for since she was 11 years old was cut short because he wanted to discuss her age. "I'll be 16 next month" she whispers.
"When I saw you today… fuck… I mean you were always pretty. But now… Wow. You are… gorgeous"
"You think… I'm gorgeous?" Great. Way to go, Mia. PLAY IT THE FUCK COOL.
"Don't do that" Dylan smiles that smile that makes everything down south tighten and it's a feeling that she's unfamiliar with but welcomes at the same time. "You know you are… and I'm… fuck Mia, I'm sorry"
"For what?"
"This" he says running a hand through his hair. "I shouldn't have taken advantage of you like that. I feel like such an asshole"
"Don't be… it was…" she trails off as she doesn't have the words to say. Lovely. Mind numbingly perfect. Awesome. Sexy?
"Your brothers would kill me"
"They don't have to know"
He groans. "Mia" he rubs her cheek. "You're… perfect" he smiles. "Tell me I can call you in a couple of years?"
"You can call me now" she reaches into his back pocket causing him to stiffen and pulls out his phone. Alright Mia! That was actually smooth! "Well you have my number, Pearson. Ball's in your court" she smiles. "Happy New Year" she says as she brushes her lips over his and struts out of the pantry with wide eyes completely unbelieving of what just happened.
"Jessie Jessie Jessie Jessie" she whispers to herself.
"MIAAAAA" Elliott booms. "Where you been?! Care for a round of pong with your favorite big brother?"
"Sure, where's Christian?" she giggles
He cocks his head to the side and crosses his hands. "Oh that's the love I get for giving you alcohol?"
"I'm kidding, we can play after I find Jessie!"
"Oh I think she went to bed. Home girl was druuuuuunk"
"What? When?"
"I don't know. 10 minutes ago? Honestly I don't know how she made it to midnight. That girl can seriously play some BP though. It's impressive. I might have to recruit her for my Beer Olympics team."
Mia darts upstairs to her room to see her best friend passed out in her bed. "Jessie" she nudges her.
"JESSIEEEEE" she whines. "Ughhhh God dammit! What is the point of having a best friend if she's too drunk when you need her!" She rolls her eyes and stalks to the door letting it fly open and is staring into jet black eyes. He pushes her back into her room and closes the door.
"You're a tease, Mia Grey"
"What!" I've never been called that before! "What did I do?"
He chuckles. "What didn't you do? You've been teasing me all night in this dress." Her cheeks flush red and she can barely make eye contact with him. "And then you felt me up!" he jokes.
Her eyes shoot up to his "Did not! If I felt you up…" she looks down at his crotch and then back up to his eyes. "You would know it" God alcohol makes you a little toooo bold.
His eyes widen and he steps back. "Do you want to go somewhere and talk?" he says looking at Jessie who was passed out on her bed.
Talk? No I want you to fuck me into tomorrow… or kiss. Kissing would be nice too. If you're not into the whole taking my virginity thing.
"Sure, we can go to the library" she says grabbing his hand and pulling him down the hall. They enter and she immediately turns the fireplace on and sits on the couch tucking her feet under her. He sits next to her and smiles.
"They sure don't make them like you in Chicago" Dylan smiles.
"Like me?"
"Smart, beautiful, charming"
Now or never, Mia. "I've had such a crush on you" she smiles. "For so long"
"How long are we talking?"
She looks in the air as if she's trying to do math "5 years and some change?"
"Jesus Christ. 5 years? Why didn't you say anything?"
"When? When I was 13 year old silly middle schooler and you were 15 or 16 in high school?"
He runs his hand down his face and pulls her into his lap. "You were never a silly middle schooler. You were always much more mature than everyone around you. Myself and your brothers included" he laughs. She smiles and looks off to the side wondering how to say what she desperately wants to.
"What is it?" he asks pulling her face gently towards him and looking into the most sincere pair of eyes she's ever seen.
She's silent. Do it before the alcohol wears off. If you make a fool of yourself, you can blame it on being drunk. "Do I really have to wait a couple of years?"
"For what?" he asks already knowing what she means.
She gives him a look. "You"
He shifts in his seat no doubt feeling himself come to life with the way she's sitting on him. "Mia…"
She twists her mouth to prevent from crying.
"Your brothers… and your parents… they're like my second parents. I spent more time in my childhood here than my house. You're like…"
"Don't say it. Don't you even say I'm like a little sister when your tongue was down my throat 30 minutes ago. Fuck that" she said getting off of his lap. "Chalk it up to feeling nostalgic about being home and back in this house and drunk and you realizing that I'm not 14 and I have tits and an ass now. But don't hand me some bullshit about my brothers, Dylan"
"Mia…"
"Don't Mia me. I'm going to bed, do not follow me" she growls. She opens the door when she feels a hand slamming it shut from behind her.
"Do not walk away from me" he says spinning her around.
"Don't tell me what to do"
"You're infuriating"
"You're an asshole"
"I know"
"You—what?"
"I know" he chuckles. "I'm sorry… I just… your brother is one of my best friends"
"I know that"
"He would not understand. All he would see is that I'm messing with his little sister"
"Is that what you see? Christian's little sister? What am I, some kind of… forbidden fruit?"
"No. Not at all. Do you think I wanted to be staring at you non-stop all night? Thank God everyone was drunk and your brother can't see anything besides Ana."
"You were staring?"
"How did you not notice?"
She shrugs.
"I didn't mean to lead you on… I swear, Mia"
She bites her lip and shakes her head. "I know. So a couple of years?"
"2 tops. Can you make it to 18 without making anyone fall in love with you?" he jokes.
"I've gone the last 5… what's 2 more?" she shrugs as she blushes.
He traces her lip with his finger before placing a kiss on her forehead. She looks up at him with eyes that he feels himself getting lost in. "You're so beautiful" He says before placing a kiss behind her ear and peppering them down her neck and shoulder. "It almost hurts to look at you… to know I can't have you"
"You can… you've always had me" she whispers as tears flood her eyes.
"Oh shit, please don't cry." He brushes his lips over her cheeks kissing away her salty tears before his mouth is on hers…
Meanwhile:
"Sex sex sex sex. Going to have sex with my really hot man" Ana drunkenly sings as Christian carries her up the stairs flung over his shoulder.
"There she goes singing again" he chuckles to himself.
She squeals and slaps his butt using it as her own personal drums. "Sex sex sex sex"
He sits her down to her feet in front of his door and shakes his head. "You are drunk"
"Says the man that just blatantly went down on me in his kitchen where anyone could have walked in"
"Buuuut they didn't. So relax"
"Could have"
"Weren't complaining when you came"
"Well…. Obviously" she said crossing her hands. He leans into kiss her when he hears a loud thump.
"Did you hear that?" he asks her.
"Hear what?" she asks leaning into kiss him but he's moving down the hall to see if he can hear it again.
"I swear I heard something"
"Okay Nancy Drew, I'm horny and exhausted and you have about a 10 minute window to get some before I pass out"
"Alright let me just check my parent's room and some of the others up here, make sure no one is in there. My parents will have a fucking fit"
"Fiiiiine" she says climbing onto his back and laying her head on his shoulder. She had changed into her sweats and his Harvard T-shirt earlier. "I'll take a nap in the meantime"
He chuckles. She's placing kisses on his neck and biting his ear as he checks all the rooms on the second floor. "Ana" he chuckles.
"What? I want sex!"
"Well what my baby wants, my baby gets. Just one more" he says opening up the door to the library. He's about to close the door when he hears a moan causing both of their ears to perk up.
"Okay okay, party's over." He cuts on the light. "We were clear that no one was to be up—WHAT THE FUCK!" his eyes widen to see his best friend on top of his sister on the couch in the library.
Ana's mouth drops open as she gets off of his back. This is not going to end well.
"Shit" Dylan says as he scurries to get off of her. "Christian it's not—"
"DON'T YOU GO THERE, DON'T YOU EVEN GO THERE. YOU WERE UP HERE FEELING UP MY SISTER YOU LITTLE FUCK." He says moving towards him. Ana senses where it's going and moves in front of him.
"Baby" she rubs his chest and looks at him. "No" she mouths having an inkling that this was the Dylan that she was telling her about and that this situation was probably mortifying for Mia.
"No? Why are you telling me no!? She's fucking 15!" he says looking at him with looks that could kill. He's moving towards him again and as much as Ana tries to stop him his hands are around his shirt and he has him slammed against a wall.
"Christian stop it! I am not a little kid anymore" Mia screams trying to get him off of him.
"You stay out of this, Mia! I knew it. This is exactly why I didn't want you here. I knew one of my asshole friends would get drunk and step out of line. I just didn't expect it to be fucking you, Dylan." He lets go of his shirt and backs up running a hand through his hair.
"Hit me I deserve it."
"Not getting laid enough in Chicago? Thought you would just come here and fuck with my sister?!"
"Christian, stop it" Ana says sternly.
"Stay the fuck out of this, Ana." He yells at her. Her mouth drops open. She expected a level of anger but she was not expecting it to come out directed at her.
"Christian, you're being so fucking irrational as usual… I…" Mia starts
"Did you sleep with her? Did you really fuck my little sister, Dylan? I will literally end you"
"NO he didn't! Because he cares too much about you, you fucking asshole. And here I thought that maybe you would understand. But no. You're just the dick you always have been. And I thought maybe Ana had changed you" she says storming out of the room and slamming the door.
"Stay the fuck away from my sister, Dylan"
"It's really not like what you were thinking, if you would just let me—" Ana screamed as she swears she hears the sound of bone crunching as her boyfriend's fist connects with his best friends jaw.
"If you're about to fix your fucking mouth to tell me some story like you're in love with her or she's not just a piece of ass to you I'll rock the shit out of you right now. I know you Dylan. You have fucked half of Chicago in 4 God damn months"
He wipes the blood from his mouth. "I get it. You're pissed. But it really is different with Mia"
"Get the fuck out of my house" he spits.
"Christian, it's late. He's drunk. He can leave in the morning"
"He can sleep in his car for all I care; he's not sleeping here with my sister down the fucking hall so he can prey on her."
"What kind of animal do you think I am? I would never do that. Mia is special"
"Don't you dare talk to me about Mia." He spits out through gritted teeth.
"Then you should be smart enough to see, that you fucked up. She's not a kid anymore, Christian" and with that he's heading for the door. "I'll call a cab"
"No, Dylan. Just sleep downstairs. It's so late. If I came home at this hour, drunk, my dad would have a cow."
"The hell he can, Ana. I don't give a shit."
She shoots him a look and he crosses his arms. "Be out of here by 8 and if you so much as look in my sister's direction before then, I'll give you a black eye to match"
"You yelled at me" Ana says as she climbs into his bed.
"Not now, Ana"
She furrows her brow. "You never yell at me"
"What did I just say?" She climbs out of bed and puts her hands on her hips. "I know you're not about to make this about you right now"
"Says the guy making it all about him. Instead of the girl in the room one over"
"What does that mean?"
"It means you embarrassed her!"
"What?"
"She likes him, Christian. And you ruined… what was probably the first… intimate moment of her life. With someone she cares about."
"That's my best friend, Ana. He should know that she is off limits."
"And maybe that's true… but you didn't have to hit him and you didn't have to talk to her like that. You could have let her explain"
"Fuck explaining. He was loaded and didn't want to fuck around with anyone here. So he went after my sister"
She shrugs. "I clearly am not getting anywhere with you, tonight" she sighs as starts to walk out of the door.
"I guess we're not fucking" he mutters petulantly
"You would be correct"
"Where are you going?"
"To check on your sister" she says before slamming the door.
Mia is sitting on the couch in her room with her arms resting on her knees as she cries into her arms when she hears her phone beep and sees it light up on her nightstand across the room. She walks over to see a text from an unknown number and her heart leaps into her chest when she reads the message.
I am so sorry.
I'm the one that should be sorry. You kept telling me no, and I just pushed. And now you and my brother… you've been friends for forever
Don't worry about that. Not your fault in the slightest. I like kissing you. It was worth it ;)
Her heart skips a beat as she clutches her phone to her chest. She hears a knock and is about to tell them to 'fuck off' thinking it's Christian when Ana pokes her head in.
"Hi"
"Hey"
"How are you?" she says sitting next to her on the couch. "So that's Dylan, huh? Cute" she teases as she nudges her. They're silent and she continues. "He's just being a big brother. Hell he's that overprotective over me sometimes"
"It sucks. Why would you put up with that? He's so irrational"
"Because I'm madly in love with him."
"He's lucky to have you, no one else would put up with his shit"
"Don't I know it" Ana giggles.
"Dylan texted me"
"What did he say?"
"That he was sorry"
"And to think he's the one with the bruised jaw" she laughs. "What a sweetheart"
"WHAT?!"
"Oh." Shit she was not there for that. "Yes… umm"
"He hit him. Christian hit him."
"Technically"
"WHAT THE FUCK" she stands up.
"Shhh. Not the time. Chew him out later. But you need some rest."
"I have to see him"
"Who?"
"Dylan"
"I don't think that's such a good idea"
"Ana, please… don't tell my brother"
"I wouldn't. But that's not the point, I think you seeing him now is just fueling the flame."
"Ana." She says giving her a look she can imagine she uses on Christian and Elliott all the time.
"Fine. Just… don't be stupid"
She squeals and hugs her tightly. "Thank you Ana!"
"If your brother finds out, I had no idea. He'll kill me"
"Of course!"
She's climbing back into bed with Christian and sees that he's facing away from her side. She sighs and slides under the covers before turning off the side lamp. Within 10 seconds he's spooning her "I'm sorry, I yelled at you. Please forgive me, baby. There's no excuse for it, but I was just so pissed. I literally saw red"
She sighs and turns to face him. "I know"
"Do you forgive me?"
"Yes" she smiles in the dark as he pulls her close and kisses her lightly.
"How's Mia"
"Not happy with you"
"I hit my best friend in the face"
"Yes, I've never seen you hit anyone"
"I feel like shit over it… but… it's my sister"
"I know"
"You think I'm being irrational and overreacting"
"A little…" he goes to say something but she stops him. "But… I am always on your side, Christian"
He smiles at his words and sighs "My sister hates me and things with Dylan are fucked"
"Well I'm here… and I love you if that's any concession"
"That's way more than a concession. That's… everything"
She smiles and snuggles into his chest "That's nice to hear"
He sighs "I'll take Harvard over this mess any day"
"Two more weeks"
"Can't fucking wait"
A/N: Soooo this just kind of happened… I wanted to do something with Mia, but couldn't think of anything and then this just kind of spilled out. The next chapter will pick up with Mia sneaking downstairs to see Dylan and what the morning holds... And of course—Elliott. As I was not planning for a Mia love interest, he is obviously not present for the outtakes… but you never know what could happen after the Charlie Tango crash! ;) I won't be elaborating on them obviously when Ana and Christian go back to Harvard but maybe I'll do an outtake of just them :)
I'll update the Pinterest board tomorrow!
