Bennet doesn’t respond, his eyes dark and haunted.
“What’s up, brother? I’m just kidding, Luis wouldn’t hurt her. It sure didn’t sound like she was hurting anyway.” No one in the house could have missed what was happening in here last night, but I’m 99% sure those were screams of pleasure and not pain.
After the other night, I decided I should move into the main house. Micah and Lukas offered to room together so I could bunk down here with everyone else.
“It’s not that, although if he did hurt her I’ll kill him.”
“I’ll hold him down for you,” I offer jokingly. “What’s wrong though?”
“We need to have a meeting. I’ll wake up Micah and Lukas if you could wake Luis and Six, and get them to come downstairs. Let’s meet in the living room in… ten minutes?”
“Yeah man, I can do that. Are you okay though?” Bennet is always pretty stoic, but he looks downright dangerous right now.
“My father called.”
Shit.
I hesitate at Luis’ door, not wanting to interrupt anything, but there are no obvious sounds coming from the room. Knocking gently, I wait for an answer but only get silence.
After a few seconds, I knock again. They’re obviously still asleep, but this is important. I try the handle and it’s unlocked, so I poke my head in. Luis is sitting up, a sheet barely covering the anaconda he calls a dick, rubbing a hand over his face. I’m actually distracted by it for a moment.
“You want to tell me what’s so important you gotta be knocking on the door incessantly before 7 AM? Or are you just here to stare at my dick?”
“Sorry, I wasn’t expecting…. I mean… How exactly did you fit that in her little body?” I’m legitimately curious.
He’s super annoyed now. “Very carefully. Now, what do you want?”
“Bennet called an emergency meeting. His dad called.”
Luis swears under his breath. Six stirs.
“Bennet’s dad called?” She sleepily pushes the hair out of her face and sits up, looking concerned.
I make an honest attempt to avert my eyes as she stretches. She is clearly not wearing underwear. “Yeah. He wants us all to meet him in the living room in ten minutes. Sounds important, so let’s not keep Daddy waiting.” I think I’m funny. And Six cracks a smile, at least.
“Alright man, we’ll be right down.”
Luis looks at me pointedly, waiting for me to leave. He starts to move the sheet, a clear warning.
Tossing the ice pack in Six’s direction, I bolt out of the room, yelling over my shoulder and giggling maniacally. “Thought you might need this!”
Downstairs, I help Mrs. C make a coffee tray. I add a couple of sports drinks and Six’s protein shake and carry it all to the living room as everyone is walking in.
Everyone sits down and I do not miss the way Six sits down a little gingerly. Just to be an asshole, I toss her and Luis the sports drinks, winking before I look pointedly away from them. Making a show of ignoring Luis’ glare and Six’s embarrassment, I try not to laugh. I do notice, however, that they both down the sports drinks pretty quickly. Victory.
As everyone gets comfortable, I notice everyone except for Bennet is still in pajamas. He’s never particularly casual unless he’s working out, but he’s wearing a full suit and tie. He’s clearly planning to go somewhere.
We’re all silently waiting for him to let us in on the emergency.
“It seems I’ve been summoned.” The muscle in his jaw ticks. “I have a meeting with my father in less than an hour.”
Everyone talks at once.
“I thought he was in Raleigh?”
“Are we sure it’s safe?”
“Do you think he knows about Six?”
