Chapter 18
Devon's POV-
It was Friday afternoon and I stood in the school's courtyard with my cap and gown. Graduation day had arrived. I reflected on the last year. It was quite the roller-coaster ride. I felt a tap on my shoulder which caused me to turn and find my best friend. I hugged her.
“Happy Graduation Day!” She tells me. I had to laugh. The Donitelli's followed her and hugged me along with Shane who came to stand beside me, grabbing hold of my hand, he kissed my cheek. Shortly after the ceremony had ended, we took pictures and headed home.
I couldn't help but wonder how tonight's festivities were going to go. I thought of Sidney and what she had told me about Marty. I knew she had a crush on him back in the day when he gave her her first kiss but I had no idea that those feelings could be revived with the way he was behaving. I hadn't said anything to Shane because this was a between best friends kind of thing. I'm sure he'd figure it out eventually, all on his own. After a few celebratory drinks, Shane took me home for some alone time before the party was to start.
“So?” He started. “How does it feel?”
“Like I'm free.” I say and laugh as I stick my arms to either side of me, as though I was flying.
“You do know that there are other ways of feeling like you're free right?” He brought me to the couch and we sat down.
“There is?” I paused playfully. “Oh, you mean leaving a place where you're unhappy like my old home, right?” He looked at me darkly and then nodded.
“Sure, that could be another way.” He smirks as he sees my mouth open to begin talking again.
“Or maybe you mean walking around this place naked?” I give him a wink. He thought that was funny. He kissed my neck as I let my head fall back to enjoy the feel of his lips further.
“You're getting warmer.” He says and kisses the other side of my neck.
“Mmm.” I say as I savoured this ever growing heat building inside of me. “I have a good one.” I finally say and wait for him to pull away. “Getting lost in you.” I say.
“It's about time!” He playfully rolled his eyes as he crashed his lips to mine, making me tumble backwards on the couch giggling.
Shane's POV-
I love how witty this woman was. She was quite the tease but in all the right ways. I hoped that that would never change. I felt her hot hands pull my dress shirt out of my pants, running up the skin of my back, sending shivers down to my core. My free hand found its way rubbing up her leg and under her skirt. Judging by how her nails were now digging into my back, I knew that she was ready for me. I proceeded to unzip my pants when I heard the door to our apartment open. I inched my head up and to be honest, I was relieved to see it wasn't my parents, but my sister.
“Oh my God!” Sidney says and covers her eyes before turning. “I'll be right outside. Come and get me when you're decent.” I groaned and buried my head in Devon's breasts as she laughed out loud.
“That's so not funny.” I tell her, helping her up.
“Come on. It kind of is.” She tells me as she starts removing her top while walking to our bedroom. She looked back toward me. “Aren't you changing?”
“I don't know if I can go in there with you looking like that.” I tell her. She put her head back and laughed.
“Keep wasting time boy and you'll never get a taste.” She tells me. I took my opportunity and ran after her, ripping my dress shirt off, throwing it onto the floor. As I wiggled out of my pants, she slams the bedroom door shut and locks it. After throwing her onto the bed, I made sure to give her a good taste of what she'll be enjoying later, much like she did with me. When our release came exploding out, I desperately found myself selfish and wanting more of her but I knew that if we didn't come out for air, we'd have my sister's wrath to contend with.
Marty's POV-
I got out of my car and noticed Sidney pacing the bottom of Shane's apartment stairwell. I couldn't help but laugh at myself. When she noticed me, she stood still and gave me a shy smile.
“Why are you out here?” I asked.
“I was up there until I walked into... Um...” She said and blushed.
“Seriously? He couldn't keep it in his pants long enough until after the party?” I say and she looks at me and cracks up.
“Thanks! That's what I was thinking.” She says. “Anyway, they must have forgotten I was out here waiting because that was about, oh...” And she looks at her watch. “Well, about fifteen minutes ago.” I had to laugh. Might as well pop a squat and I sat down and pulled her hand so she sat beside me, on one of the last steps. I found myself without anything to say.
“So where's your girlfriend?” She asks me. I chuckled.
“There is none.” I tell her. “You interested?” I caught a slight blush from her. “Well, that's not a no.”
“It's not a yes either.” She tells me. I laughed lightly and looked down to my feet. “Let me ask you something. What made you become a complete ass?”
“What do you mean? Girls don't like this?” I ask her putting a smug look on my face and puffing my chest out.
“You're so sure of yourself with the arrogance; it's like your shit don't stink.” She tells me.
“I didn't mean to come off that way.” I tell her. “I'm seriously the same old Marty your brother's awesome sidekick that gave you your first kiss.” She looked at me.
“You knew that?” She tells me. I nodded and nudged her lightly in the side.
“Yeah.” I tell her. “And it's one of my favourite memories from when I lived here.” I watched her as she looked at her feet, blushing. I heard the door open up and footsteps walking down the stairs. We turned to find Shane facing us.
“It's about time Casanova.” I say to tease him. Shane started laughing. “Let's get this party started!” I cheer as Sidney follows me up the stairs.
Sidney's POV-
I found myself staring at Marty's butt the entire way up those stairs. I was also juggling the fact that he carried the memory of my first kiss around with him since that day, six years ago. Maybe he hadn't changed so much. It seemed like this facade of his was pretty much just that, a facade, not Marty truly trying to be himself.
“I'm starved!” I say.
“I'm with you on that one.” Marty follows my lead. “Unlike these two, we didn't start the night with desert.” I knew Devon would blush but to my surprise, she held her own and I found my brother blushing.
Half an hour later, the delivery guy was at our door with loads of chicken wings, pizza and mozzarella sticks. We sat at the dinning room table laughing about memories from the old days. I found myself watching Marty as he told Devon about the time that Shane had sleepwalked and locked himself outside with a foot of snow and only boots. I remembered that night. Mom and Dad were in full panic mode, trying to find him as Marty was still sleeping soundly on the floor of Shane's room.
“I swear, I don't know how you never tripped on me dude.” He told Shane. Everyone was laughing, I myself, to tears because all I saw in my minds eye was my mother's horrified look as I remembered the night. We continued like this, sharing old stories until people started arriving. There was a good mix of people we had gone to school with along with some that Shane and Marty used to hang with as well.
I saw Marty in the corner with a few girls falling over him in drunkenness. I smirked to myself.
“You've been eyeing him all night.” Devon said as she stood beside me. “Don't let your brother catch you.”
“Catch Sid doing what?” He says as I turn to the fridge to the counter and poured myself a shot of tequila. I chased it with its traditional salt and lime.
“Nothing big brother.” I say and pour a shot and hand it to him. “Here you go. I need a bit of air.” And I start for the door.
“Need company?” Devon asks. I shook my head.
“Nah, I'll be fine.” And I closed the door behind me, noticing Marty looking my way. I walked down the stairs and sat on the bottom steps. Mom and Dad didn't think about it completely. A balcony would have been great. Then again, the silence felt nice as well. I heard footsteps coming down and some giggling. This drunken chick stumbled and knocked me off the step altogether.
“Ooopsie! I'm swoooorrwy.” She tells me in her less than meaningful slur.
“Here.” I see a hand and when I grab it, Marty's standing there with a bottle of beer for both of us. “Thought you might have wanted a drink.”
“Lost your entourage have you?” I say with a slight bitterness to my tone.
“If I didn't know better, you almost sound jealous.” He tells me. I feel the heat of my anger settling in my face, or perhaps that's the liquor kicking in?
“Hardly.” And I hand him his beer back as I tried to get around him again. “Will you let me get by please?” I take a deep breath. He stood his ground.
“Not until you tell me why you're mad all of a sudden.” He tells me, taking a step toward me and putting down the beers. I held his eyes. I needed to escape. It became harder to breathe all of a sudden.
“I'm not mad.” I say.
“Could of fooled me.” He tells me and I roll my eyes at him.
“Fine. You said you weren't this whole Gods gift to women type dude and there you were, flaunting your stuff for those bimbos up there.” I tell him.
“So, you are jealous?” He crosses his arms over his chest looking all fine and takes another step toward me. His hand reached out and push a strand of hair behind my ear. I found myself stuck to the spot I stood in. “In case you haven't noticed, I'm out here and not in there.” I looked at him. I knew he had a point but my stubbornness wasn't letting me fess up to it all.
“Why'd you bring up that kiss earlier?” I asked him. He shrugged his shoulders.
“Because I felt like being honest.” He tells me. “I haven't changed Sid.” He says and then I find his hands on either side of my face and his lips pressed on to mine, memories flooding, my heart beating hard out of my chest.
“What the...” I began and he closes the gap between us again. This time, my body responded as my lips danced with his, my hands found his chest and rested there as he cradled my face in his hands still.
“Still the best first kiss ever.” I say as he puts his forehead against mine.
“Yeah. What you said.” He says breathlessly.
“Huh?” I pulled back slightly.
“You heard me.” He says. “You never forget your first kiss.”
