As Olivia was introducing Ryan to Carly and Nicole, his gaze drifted to the front door and a grin spread across his face.

"Well damn. Look who decided to grace us with his presence." Chase walked over, and he and Ryan shared a bro hug, then he hugged Olivia as well.

Olivia introduced him to Carly and Nicole. Chase gave each of them a once over, but Olivia noticed his gaze lingered just a tad longer on Carly. Soon, Bubba and Alex Bowman joined them, and it was clear that both of them had their eye on Nicole.

Carly was openly flirting with Chase, and he was clearly eating it up. Carly didn't have a shy or modest bone in her body. Olivia thought with a grin. It was crazy that she, Nicole and Carly were such good friends because three people could not be more different. Nicole was somewhat in between Olivia and Carly. She wasn't shy, just reserved. Very confident, but not showy. Drop dead gorgeous, but completely unaffected by it. She preferred to use her intelligence rather than her good looks to dazzle people.

They all made their way outside, where most of the guests had ended up.

Ryan could not take his eyes off of Olivia. Seeing her in that dress and high heels was turning him on, but not nearly as much as her new found confidence. She was no longer the shy girl he had known. She made conversation with everyone, laughed and joked around, went out of her way to thank everyone for coming. Everyone adored her. Her confidence was even sexier that that little tight dress.

He followed her back into the house where she had went to pour another drink. A few weeks ago, he would have swore it was the alcohol that had brought her out of her shell, but now he realized she didn't need the alcohol to be strong and confident, she had found that within herself.

He walked up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist and placed a kiss on her cheek. "Are you having a good time?" He asked.

She turned around and faced him with a wide smile on her face, as she wrapped her arms around his neck. "I am having a great time. Thank you so much for this." Her face was flushed, and her eyes were sparkling. She had never looked more beautiful.

Just as he was about to lean in to kiss her, something caught his eye.

"Is he hitting on my sister?" Ryan asked, his gaze directed to a spot in the corner of the living room.

Olivia followed his gaze to see Erin talking to William Byron. Her hand was on his arm, and she was laughing at whatever he had said.

"They are just talking. Besides, Erin's a big girl. She can take care of herself." Olivia laughed. Although it looked more like Erin might be hitting on William, Olivia wasn't about to mention that to Ryan.

She sensed he was about to go into overprotective big brother mode and she needed to distract him. She wound her arms around his neck tighter, pulled him closer and kissed him deeply. Before she knew it, he had her backed against the wall. His kisses made her weak and lightheaded. She could taste the whiskey on his tongue, combined with the whiskey she had already drank, and the taste that was just Ryan had her more intoxicated than an entire bottle of whiskey ever could.

"You have no idea what seeing you in that dress is doing to me." He murmured huskily.

She rubbed against him, feeling exactly what it was doing to him, also feeling pretty satisfied that she had successfully distracted him from Erin and William.

He kissed her again, even more passionately, his hand caressing her ass. God she loved kissing him, his kisses never failed to get her worked up, and that's what she was feeling now. "I want you Ry." She whispered in his ear.

"Tell me what you want baby." He began nibbling on her neck, she was still pressed against the wall.

"I'm trying to decide if I want to fuck you or get you in my mouth." She replied.

He sucked in his breath. That was so hot and so unexpected.

"Later you can have both. Whatever you want." He said. Fuck. He just hoped he could hang on until later.

To his surprise, she shook her head as she bit her bottom lip. "I don't want to wait until later. I want you now."

"Baby, we can't just...." She cut him off with another steamy kiss. Okay fine. It was Livvy's party. Whatever Livvy wanted, Livvy was going to get.

"Get a room." A snickering voice interrupted them.

Bubba of course. "In case you forgot, it's my house. We got a room. We got three of them to be exact." Ryan said.

"Don't let me hold you up then." Bubba walked away laughing.

However, every time Ryan and Olivia tried to sneak away to the bedroom, someone stopped them for something.

"Guess that's the universe telling me it's rude to leave my own party, even if it is to have sex with my super hot boyfriend." Olivia laughed.

"We'll make up for it later." Ryan promised.

They continued to mingle: Chase and Carly had made quite a connection and were having a hard time keeping their hands off of each other. Bubba and Alex were both captivated by Nicole, who pretended not to notice the daggers Bubba was glaring at Alex. Erin and William were still talking in the corner of the living room, but they were not touching so Ryan wasn't too worried.

As the evening wore on, the party began to die down. Soon, all that were left aside from Ryan and Olivia were Bubba, Chase, Carly and Nicole.

"Do y'all have to work tomorrow? Shit, I mean today." Olivia asked her friends.

"I took off. I knew it was going to be a late night and I would probably be hung over." Nicole said.

"Me too." Carly giggled.

"Everyone is more than welcome to crash. If you want to go home, get an Uber. No one is driving." Ryan said.

In the end, everyone agreed to stay the night. It had been a very fun evening, but Ryan and Olivia were ready to go to bed. It was later after all.

A/N: Yes, I was inspired by Erin's Instagram post to add that little tidbit in here. She and William are so freaking adorable together.
