Chapter 236: Could I Just Speak To You?
Callan
Few weeks on
My sister, Tina was having a few people over for whatever reason. She was whining that I should come, but I honestly had no interest until she bargained with me and told me Jane could bring her friend, her friend being Brianna. How does she know I want that? I don't know but I huffed and agreed. It is not often that there are actual events where her and I would be at the same place. She always has a private hang out at home which I am not at all complaining about or if I take her somewhere that again no one knows about. Bryce has a date tonight, so I know she didn't invite him.
For that reason, I know I can be here with the girl and not have it become some dramatic thing. That is until I walked into my sister's apartment and remembered that Hannah would be here. Of course, she would, she is friends with Tina. Fuck. My sister lives alone, she has always been a very independent person. Jane and her are basically opposite, Jane and my mother still live together and shop together and go eat at all fancy places around the city. Tina is more low key and not as bubbly.
Brianna was already here and sitting with Jane in the corner, they were talking amongst themselves so they hadn't noticed me coming in. It was about seven women and four dudes, most of whom I know. The first pair of eyes to settle on me were Hannah's. I had been avoiding her ever since that incident that got a little too intense. That was a month ago now but trust me when I saw she had tried to come around. She showed up at my club with tiny dresses and kept trying to find me hanging around. I haven't been hanging around though because I have mostly been with Brianna. She texted, she called and she even sent me nudes. I had to tell her to back off because if Brianna saw those nudes, she would get the wrong idea. When I told Hannah I wasn't interested in her sending me those, she immediately jumped into question.
“Why? Are you dating Brianna?” She had asked. I don't know even if the girl keeps tabs on me or if it was just common sense but I told her yes and to leave me alone. So we will see.
Sure, I have known Hannah a long time but Brianna knows her and I fucked around a lot and I know she would be upset if I continue to casually hang around the girl because she is in my inner circle. I don't know who I am anymore for caring about something like that but here we are.
“Callan?” Tina stood from the table she had set up with finger food and drinks.
She came and gave me a hug even though I never hug them back and started leading me further into the room. The men bowed their heads in respect and Gabe was there, who is Hannah's brother and my buddy. He came over to slap my back and say hello but my eyes glided past him to the girl in the corner with her eyes locked on me. She smiled and I wanted to fucking kiss her. Damn her.
“I need to say a few hellos.” I patted Gabe on the shoulder and moved past him. Hannah cut in and quietly whispered.
“Callan, can I speak to you for a minute?” I couldn't decipher her expression but she is a spitfire. So if she is mad, she will make trouble for me tonight. Still I saw Brianna's eyes land on her and I just quickly moved past Hannah, ignoring her.
“Hello, Callan.” Jane hopped up and hugged my arm. Again, I don't even hug them but whatever, they are my little sisters.
“Hi,” Brianna's soft breathy voice made my dick already twitch. I sat down beside her and leaned into her ear.
“What? No hug?” I teased her for not following my sister's lead.
“I thought I would ruin your reputation.” She whispered back in amusement.
“A kiss then?” I found myself asking.
What the fúck is wrong with me? I just really want fucking kiss her, I know it could gain a lot of attention but fúck it. Let them mind their business, her cheeks blushed and her eyes snapped up and darted around my face to read if I was serious. I can tell she wants to and when I cupped her face, she closed the reminder of the gap and pressed his lips to mine. I didn't overdo it, I just gave her a kiss and pulled away. Jane had a shit eating grin on but I ignored it, I felt Brianna scoot closer to me so she was tucked into my side. Since I leaned back on the sofa and extended my arm, she was basically at my side with my arm mostly around her. Jane and her had no interest in mingling, they were in their own little world here. Gabe came and sat on a chair not fair to me and chatted a little bit. Shit talking like we mostly do.
I kept feeling eyes on me and I knew who it was, I just tried to ignore it. Hannah was looking not only at me but she was glaring very openly at Brianna. I remembered the time she told me I got so drunk that I was calling her Brianna and telling her shit. I didn't even want to know what I said at the time because I was afraid I said more than my sober mind has admitted. Still, it shouldn't shock her that I am with Brianna. I obviously had something going on with Brianna to be calling her name when I am shit faced. My eyes shifted downward when Brianna was talking and subconsciously placed her hand to be around my dick. She is damn close to it, I can't let myself get hard in the middle of a damn party but I would love to take her into the bathroom and fuck her against the sink.
It was very adult party for Tina, finger food, glasses of wine and friendly chatter. I remember when a lot of the people here tonight used to throw house parties that always got out of hand and were damn fun when I was young. I was a troublemaker, nothing has changed. Instead of finger food and wine, it was drugs and liquor. Instead of friendly chatter, it was a hollering voice and grinding bodies on the sweaty dance floor which was really just the living room or whatever room in one of our mansions that they had moved the furniture out of. Gabe has wandered off to go hit on some girl, so I turned back to Brianna. I couldn't keep my damn hands off her. I had my arm around the back of the sofa but I would let my fingers graze her shoulder and upper arm. I would place a hand on her thigh, I would leaned into her and whisper little dirty things in her ear that made her blush in front of Jane. I kissed her damn temple like a jackass, I haven't touched her in a few weeks now that now I on overdrive. I have been definitely making up for lost time without even realizing it.
After a year of using meaningless hookups to try to get me to stay away from Brianna Fletcher, after the filtering of nameless pussy after pussy, after denying myself the truth of who I wanted beneath me, I am finally here. I don't have to pretend I didn't see her when I am fucking some random girl and her pretty eyes pop into my head. I don't have to restrain myself from watching that sexy video she let me take, I jerked off to that more times than I will ever admit.
“Hey, Callan. We were thinking of getting out of here.” Brianna whispered to me after a couple of hours. I saw her try to make the effort to talk to Tina but I don't like the way my sister spoke back. Not friendly at all and Brianna backed off right away.
Now that people were starting to get up and leave, Jane jumped at the opportunity of leaving because she is definitely bored. She needs chaos to enjoy herself, she is too fidgety otherwise.
“Let's go,” I tipped my head for the girls to get up.
“Tina, thank you for having us or me, I appreciate the invite.” Brianna smiled at my sister.
“Sure,” she nodded but Jane stepped up and hugged her so she was off the hook.
“Callan?” I heard a quiet voice behind me and when I glanced back, I furrowed my brows.
“What is it, Hannah? I am leaving.” I let her know.
“Could I just talk to you for a minute?” She huffed, Brianna paused and wasn't sure what to do. She just gave a general wave to everyone else and started walking out with my sister.
I jerked between following Brianna or staying to see what the hell Hannah wants.
“Just come to the other room for a second.” Hannah tried leading me away. No, fuck that. I followed Brianna.
“I drove,” I called out to Brianna so she knew I came outside. She looked behind her and I think I saw relief on her face.
“Jane ordered a car, but why don't you have Callan drive you home so you aren't going off on your own.” She offered it to her best friend.
Brianna was already walking to me and hesitated for a second but took my arm when I didn't react to her more intimate gesture. She was sort of hugging my arm. Whatever it was, I am not bothered by it, so I don't know why she hesitated. Actually I do know why.
