“You sure, man? You can’t fuck yourself up so close to the start of the season.”
“I know, man. It’s fine.”
“Alright,” he says. “We’ll meet you at your place in a few hours.”
“Sure,” I say before hanging up. A light drizzle starts, so I head back up to the house and kick back on the lounge with ESPN.
I feel like an absolute twat going out to this club. I mean, it’s not like I saw her reply, I’m just assuming she’s going to be there but if she is, I hope it doesn’t freak her out. I just need to see her outside of that room and having a few drinks at a club while letting loose is the perfect way to do that.
I find myself falling asleep and am woken later by the sound of my phone, screeching in my ear. I hastily sit up and realise I fell asleep with my phone right under my face. No wonder the damn thing seemed so loud.
With a groan, I answer the phone without looking at the caller ID.
“Hey, fucker,” Carters annoying voice says through the line.
“What’s up?” I say on a yawn.
“Not much, Bri and I were going to head around to yours for dinner,” he tells me.
“No can do, brother,” I say. “Jace and I are heading out.”
“Oh yeah,” he says with interest. “Where are you going?”
“That new club on main,” I murmur.
“Fuck yeah, count us in,” he says before calling out to Bri. “Babe, call Cass. We’re going out tonight.”
“What?” I grunt. “That wasn’t an invitation.” Far out. There’s no stopping them now. The whole family is going to be tagging along. I can just imagine it now, the second Cassie recognises Elle, it’s going to be on for young and old.
"Tough shit, bro," he says and I can tell by his tone he has a grin plastered across his face. "Bri has been begging for a night out to get messy and I'm sure Cass is too."
Well… this is going to be interesting. If Bri is getting messy, then Carter is too and I can only imagine the type of shit that's going to come out of his mouth tonight. Hopefully, Sean will come along and can reel him in when that inevitably happens.
“Fine,” I grunt. “Jace is bringing Lacey. We’re meeting at my place before heading in.”
“Ugh, is he still with that chick?” Carter asks in distaste.
“Yeah,” I laugh, “What’s your problem with her?”
“Dude, remember that chick in high school I screwed in the science labs before getting sprung by her boyfriend at the time?”
“Yeah…?”
“That’s her,” he says proudly. Oh geez.
“Shit,” I sigh, tonight really is going to be interesting. “I’d forgotten about that. You sure it’s the same chick?”
“Dude, I don’t forget my conquests,” he laughs.
"Don't let Bri hear you saying that," I warn him before checking the time. Crap. It's getting late. If I don't have a shower now, I won't have a chance before everyone start pilling in. "I got to go, man."
"Yeah, right. We'll be there soon," he says before ending the call.
With that, I hobble as best I can up the stairs and get myself showered and presentable before heading back downstairs and ordering a few pizza’s, knowing the girls are already going to be drinking and I’d rather they had a little food in their stomach’s before they get absolutely wasted. I mean, I can already tell it’s going to be an unforgettable night, I just hope it’s unforgettable for the right reasons.
Within the next half-hour, quite literally everyone shows up. Cassie comes waltzing in with Jax first, followed by Carter and Bri, Sean and Sara then Jace and Lacey. The second Lacey walks in, her eyes widen in shock quickly followed by pure panic as she notices Carter smirking at her from across the room and it’s clear Jace doesn’t know shit. Carter looks to me with a wicked grin and I realise he’s going to be the designated shit stirrer tonight.
Just great.
Drinks are poured, pizza is devoured and then the inevitable fight happens.
Who’s driving?
A funny looks comes between Sean and Sara before she says that she'll drive us all, only it doesn't solve our problem as there are nine of us to squeeze in an eight-seater car. But Carter does what he does best and crawls into the trunk of the car and hides.
“Nup. No way,” Sara says, shaking her head at my brothers. “I am not driving with that idiot in the back.”
“Come on,” Carter calls as his head pokes up and appears in the back window. “Get your asses in the car.”
“Babe?” Sean questions. He would never make her do something she isn’t comfortable with so if she says no, then the plans about to change.
She lets out a loud huff. “Fine, but if I get arrested you’re all going down with me.”
