He watched you drive away with a wide smile on his face, but you were feeling a little tingly. 'Oh shit. This is bad.'He laughed behind his mug. "I know peaches. It's just funny how you get so flustered." You threw a spoon at him, grunting. "Fuuuuuuuck." Your head hung low. "Six days? Well, our flight is scheduled for Friday, so we have five days to finish up. All we have left is the sorta physical stuff."He slid off the chair to pour a cup of coffee, smiling as he offered it to you. "I was using my indoor voice peaches. Looks like you're hungover." He pat my shoulder, strolling back to his seat. "Lush.""Not seeping with you Frankie. Go way." Turning away, you mumbled something incoherently."It's two fifteen peaches. Cmon. Get in bed." Looking at him, then all of the guys who you knew not to argue with due to the stern looks on their faces, you conceded with your hands in the air. "OK. I give up."Will tipped his bottle in his friend's direction and smirked. "Well our sister stuck her tongue down your throat like she was looking for loose change." As you washed your hands you giggled, half from the comment, half from the buzz you had going from the beer. Skipping down the steps and out the door you plopped yourself back up on the table. The bathroom, which was facing the backyard, gave you the perfect view to the guys. The nightlight gave off a warm glow to the room and since you were the only one in the house you kept the overhead light off. "Because I'm not an animal. I also like to use toilet paper. You do have toilet paper don't you Frankie?"The five of you devoured several hamburgers, hot dogs and two entire bags of chips. The cooler was about emptied of the beer and everyone's was feeling good. Thankfully Frankie lived on ten acres. The only sounds came from the radio and the four bozos you called your best friends. And being that it was so private, the boys took it upon themselves to water the trees. Stumbling as you got up off of Frankie's lap, you stabilized yourself then walked towards the house. Behind you, Frankie huffed, "Need help there lush?""Huh?" You blinked a few times and realized what he was talking about. "Geez Frankie, that just came out of nowhere. I wasn't prepared." Your face was flushed. You swallowed hard and concentrated on his face. "I'm sorry." Benny finally showed with the groceries, unpacking them on the island. "Hey! Anyone gonna help me here?" "Aawwwww shit!" Frankie threw his arm around your shoulder. "You deserved that Miller!!" The grin on his face made you giggle. He looked into your eyes, his features softened and took your hand, crooning your name. "You're pretty great ya know?" You didn't have time to respond before his lips touched yours. What the hell was going on?? He sighed quietly against your mouth when he pulled back. "You shouldn't tense up when I kiss you. How are we supposed to fool people?"You huffed. "You wish, Frankieeeeee beeeeeaaaarrrrr."You jumped from the table, landing gracefully on your feet and winked. "Absolutely." "Oh excuuuuse me princess. But why don't you just go out here? The girl's tree is over there." He pointed his bottle to the left of him. You smirked. "If you don't I'll use a washcloth." As an afterthought you looked back to see Frankie giving his attention to Santi. Skipping over, you startled him by taking his face in your hand and breathed, "I'll miss you Frankie bear." Before you could change your mind, you took his bottom lip in your mouth and ran your tongue over it. Pulling him closer, your tongue poked at his lips hoping he would part his. When he allowed entrance you ran your hands through his hair and licked through his mouth, teasing his tongue. Frankie tensed for a few seconds but held onto your back, moaning quietly into the kiss. When you both pulled away, he looked flustered, but you were smug. "Be prepared Morales." Swiping the corners of your mouth with your fingers, you blew a kiss as you walked away.Frankie pat his back. "And it's supposed to. Guys, there's nothing going on. C'mon. She's pretty much our sister."After tapping your phone you sighed, "It's only 10:30 and I don't work tomorrow. You can have it. As soon as you think I'm sober, I'll drive."The party disbursed at one in the morning with Santi as the driver. Frankie, always aware of his surroundings from being in the service, took notice of everyone's intake. Santi nursed two beers the entire night and stopped drinking three hours ago. You would've went with them but had already crashed on the couch an hour ago. Frankie woke you with a nudge to your foot. Benny had made the mistake once of saying your name as he touched your face when you fell asleep at Santi's. You immediately jumped up and clocked him in the face before realizing your surroundings. He explained that Will was roughhousing with him without gloves on and "big bro caught me off guard."He laughed and slid his hands under your body. "You're not sleeping with me darlin." He carried you up the stairs with ease, kicking open the guest room door. Placing you under the covers, he leaned over, moving strands of hair from your face. "Goodnight angel.""THERE SHE IS!!"Taking a sip of the welcoming drink, you glared at his back. "Remind me to kick your ass later."Groaning, you pulled yourself up onto the opposite stool. "You know what I mean. Our clothes are gonna be on the entire time. I rented a room with two beds. So ya know, no..." You moved your hands back and forth between the both of you. "Well who could refuse Chinese food with my sexy girlfriend?" He walks over to you giving you a chaste kiss on the lips. "Shut up." You looked around and saw your purse layout on his couch. Finished your coffee you retrieved it and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "I gotta get home to shower then go to work. Uh, you wanna meet up at my place tomorrow night for Chinese and making out?" You searched for your keys, but not before giving him a wicked smile. He crossed his arms, smirking and air quoted. "'Sorta physical stuff?' Frankie huffed. "Ooooo, how am I supposed to take you to this wedding in six days if I'm in traction?"You cringed, eyes squeezed shut. "Stop yelling please."The sun shone a little too brightly through the window, rousing you at eight in the morning. "UUUGGGGHHHHHHH." Why you sat up so quickly, you'll never know. On the nightstand, Frankie had left you a bottle of water and Motrin. If you had the energy, you'd smile. After taking the wonder pill, you shuffled into the kitchen as softly as you could. The room was still fuzzy and a silhouette of your friend was sitting on the island stool. You grunted, opening one eye. "Time isit?" You didn't really care, you just wanted to sleep. He looked up to the sky then to you, shaking his head in amusement. "That won't be until tomorrow. You can stay in the guest room.""What are you losers talking about?" Grabbing another beer from the cooler, Frankie took it from you harshly. "You drove here Missy. That's enough." "...some kiss." You heard Benny say shockingly. The three guys looked at Frankie curiously. "Nothing's going on between you two? Dude, THAT looked real!"He scratched his patchy beard. "You gonna chance it?"Rolling your eyes, you murmured, "I'm not a lush. Five beers does not a lush make Morales." Frankie scrunched his nose. "You really are going to call me that aren't you?""Hey peaches, don't be sorry. I was curious what your reaction would be." He pat my leg. "Now that you know I might swoop in for a kiss from time to time, you can pretend to love it."Will was amused by his brother's agitation. "You were in Special Forces man, I'm sure you can handle making some hamburger patties!" Laughter roared through the backyard and you added smugly, "Yeah Benny, why don't YOU cook for us?"
