Flashing a smile at her and I looked over at Spencer.
“Car’s done for,”
“I see that.” He muttered looking over the wreckage that pulled into the pits.
We ended up finding a hotel right outside of Cottage Grove for the night.
“Who picked this shit hole?” I asked afraid to remove my clothes or shoes for that matter.
Alley dropped her bag on the floor. “Since you three aren’t eighteen yet, we did.”
“You could have found some place—” I began but was interrupted by Spencer’s glare to shut up. “Right,” I mumbled understanding he had no choice in the matter.
Alley had Spencer by the balls.
“Where are we all sleeping?” Sway asked rubbing her eyes. Emma was already asleep on the couch leaving two queen-size beds.
“Alley and I will take this bed and you and Jameson take that one.” Spencer saidlayingdown on the bed.
We were all so exhausted by the time we reached the hotel. I don’t think anyone had enough energy to argue, not that I would have argued sleeping next to Sway anyway.
“Keep your clothes on.” I whispered toSwaywhen she began to take her jeans off. “This bed is questionable.”
“Good idea.” She smiled looking down at me.
We’d slept in the same bed together before on a few different occasions and I soon realized she liked to sleep in just her underwear, no matter where she was.
Sway wasn’t self-conscious at all, nor did she have any reason to be. She’d walk around naked in front of you if you didn’t object. I didn’twantto object but for the sake of my self-control, I objected.
Once in bed, Spencer and Alley were fast asleep which left me wide awake staring at Sway.
“Stop looking at me,” she whispered startling me.
“Sorry, yousleeping?”
“Yes, but I’m answering you...strange.”
“Shit head.” I nudged her shoulder.
“Was it good?” she asked.
“Huh?”
Was what good?I wondered.
“Chelsea.”
“Oh...” Sway and I usually talked about these things but now I didn’t know what to say and I was curious as hell as to what went on between her and Cooper last night. “No, it was quick though.”
“Minute man, eh?”
“Not quite. I was thinking of someone else.” I told her honestly praying she didn’t ask who. Thankfully, she didn’t and I’m not so sure she even heard me.
Her eyes drooped shut once before opening. “Well she’s a bitch regardless.”
“What did you do with Cooper?” I blurted out.
“Uh...nothing much.We had sex a couple weeks ago and now he wants it all the time but,” her eyes opened and she smiled. I could see a faint blush to her cheeks. “hesucks...really, he does. It wasn’t what I thought it would be. It just felt like movements you know, something to satisfy an inch.”
