Chapter 35

"What the fuck are you doing here?" I snap, trying hard to ignore that I'm in my boxers.

Hunter and Xavier are looking around with curious smirks, while Tristan is looking at me with a look that could kill.

Just because he's talking to me doesn't mean that he has accepted the fact that I'm with his sister.

I shift my eyes to Summer. Her one hand holds tightly onto her boyfriend's, her red hair pulled in a complicated as fuck looking, braid and her lip tightly pulled between her teeth nervously. She looks right at me with wide eyes, obviously knowing who else is in the penthouse with me.

"I called you but you didn't answer, so I sent you a text and we all came over." Xavier responds, running a hand through his hair, his eyes finally finding my furious ones.

They just fucking had to come over when Avery was about to fuck my face.

Just thinking about her pussy above my mouth, her tits swaying from her abrupt movements, her ass in my hands, my tongue tasting her sweet flods, as her melodic moans fill the room, has me fucking hard.

But the fucking people standing around my living room are gradually killing the mood my girl had set me in.

To say I'm fucking annoyed is an understatement. Fuck. Now I speak like Ry, too.

"Yeah, we didn't think you'd have," Hunter trails off and walks over to the couch. I face palm, my eyes squeezing shut tightly when he takes my girl's bra strand between his fingers, and holds it up. "... company with you."

"Hunter, why don't you leave the bra alone and Aiden as well. We can come back later guys, " Summer chimes in, trying to save me and her best friend. I send her a thankful look before looking behind me towards the stairs, silently praying that Ry won't come down.

I know for a fact that she isn't ready to tell everyone and I also know that she wouldn't want her oldest brothers to find out this way.

"Yeah, Summer's right. Let's go." Tristan mumbles and with one last glare he turns around. My heartbeat eases down a bit and I let out the breath I didn't know I was holding when they all hesitantly turn around, toward the elevator.

My fucking name getting called from upstairs, though has all of their heads snapping in the direction of the stairs. Xavier and Hunter seem confused as their eyes furiously cut between me and the staircase behind me.

"Aiden?" My girl calls again. Xavier's eyebrows furrow when realisation hits him. My eyes keep the emotionless facade as they bore into his. I'm not scared or worried about what will happen, I just don't want Avery getting as hurt as she got when Tristan found out.

"Yeah?" I respond, not taking my eyes away from her brother.

"Do you need help finding my phone?" She asks softly, her approaching footsteps being heard closer.

I look at Hunter, he seems to have realised who the voice coming from the staircase belongs to, but the confusion still hasn't left his face.

It's as if he's trying to find a good excuse as to why his little sister would be here with me.

An excuse that does not include the two of us together. In any way.

"No," I answer in Italian, "I already found it, baby."

"What is taking so long the-" She stops mid-sentence when she sees them before us. Her shocked eyes shift from her older brothers, to Summer and to the hand holding hers.

"...you're sitting on my face." His words build excitement inside me. Before I get the chance to respond, to his demand, he walks out. I slump back against his warm pillow and check out his tight butt as he walks out of the room. Damn those boxers.

Aiden's footsteps fade away and I turn my attention to the ceiling as thoughts of what we'll do in a couple of minutes take over my mind.

The pulsating ache between my legs grows as I think about me sitting on top of his face, while his tongue swipes and thrusts inside my pussy.

His hands on my butt and chest, squeezing and playing with my tender flesh, meanwhile his name rolls of my lips making him groan against my heat.

I need holy water.

My eyebrows furrow when I notice that Aiden has been away for a good while. Surely it doesn't take five minutes to find a phone.

"Aiden?" I call, from the bed but the sound isn't as loud as I'd wished it was. That's what you get for screaming all night long, my subconscious reminds me.

I rip the black covers off me and stretch my sore body as much as I can. The satisfying crack coming from my spine has a contented sigh leave my lips. My bare feet touch the cool floor as I make my way into Aiden's closet.

A black dress shirt on the floor catches my attention. Grabbing it, I pull the shirt on and button all of the buttons up, leaving the top three open. The material comes down to the top of my thighs and hangs loosely down my shoulders.

"Aiden?" I call out to him for the second time when I'm standing on the top of the stairs. The eerie silence throughout the house, creeps me out, no matter how much I'm trying to ignore it.

"Yeah?"Butterflies fill my belly at the sound of his voice, though, it sound restrained, as if he's cautious of how he's talking.

"Do you need help finding my phone?" I ask softly, a hint of confusion in my voice as I descend down the stairs.

"No," Aiden answers in Italian. It's too damn sexy when he does that. "I already found it, baby."

My confusion grows. What is he doing downstairs then?

I continue down the stairs, rubbing my eye with my fist, "what is taking so long the-" I cut myself off when I round the curve of the staircase and stand on the last few steps, close to Aiden.

My eyes settle on the four people I definitely didn't expect here.

To say my heart has dropped to my butthole would be an understatement as to how I feel at the moment. It's like my heart stopped beating completely or like it's beat has increased by a thousand pumps a minute. Which I think is what most likely happened.

My three brothers stand before me along with Summer.

My eyes land on Hunter, his eyes moving between me and his best friend fast as he tries to figure out what's going on before him. Why I'm dressed in Aiden's shirt and why I'm at his place.

His eyes look furious. I don't think I've ever seen him this angry and confused before. Ever.

I barely look at Tristan, I'm too scared too. I'm afraid he'll explode if we make eye contact while I stand next to his best friend; my boyfriend that he knows, but definitely does not approve off.

Much to my dismay my eyes settle on Xavier last. It's as if he has a magnet that draws me in, because I sure as heck don't want to see the disappointment and anger expressed on his face, which, unfortunately, is exactly what I'm doing right now.

His hard eyes make me want lower my head and whimper away from him.

I'm sure that if I were a dog, my tail would be between my legs and my ears would be drawn backwards.

I just compared myself to a dog.

Summer stands next to him, her eyes lowered. I haven't seen her in what feels like forever. Our friendship isn't like before. We might meet up at school and hang out there but our time outside is definitely limited, she might come over to my place once a week.

My suspicion of her avoiding me is confirmed when my eyes land on the hand tightly intertwined with my brother's. Xavier's hand.

What the fuck...

Now I'm talking like Aiden.

"Fucking please tell me this is not what I think it is,"Hunter's voice pleads. My eyes move from their intertwined fingers to him. His light brown eyebrows are furrowed, his fists clenched. The rings adoring them seem to be cutting into his rough skin.

"I-" my body has a mind of it's own when I move toward Aiden and pull myself onto his side. "Yes," comes my silent confirmation, shocking both myself and Aiden.

By the slightly widened eyes, Tristan and Summer too.

His immediate reaction is to wrap his arm around my waist and pull me closer. Maybe not the right time to get butterflies.

"You fucked my little sister?" Hunter sneers disgusted at Aiden, making me almost flinch. I look at Xavier after a few seconds of deafening silence. His quiet and calmly apparent demeanour is scaring me.

"Yes he did," Tristan mutters with a roll of his eyes. I glare at him when Summer nudges his side with her elbow.

"For the thousandth fucking time. She is not a fuck." Aiden talks back, his eyes flicking between all of them.

"You're five years older than her!" Hunter shouts angrily, this is the first time I've seen him like this.

"Are you not disgusted by yourself!

? How could you let this happen?! I thought you knew better than this!

" He yells at me. My eyes sting, not because of someone shouting at me, but mostly because of who that someone is.

It's like Tristan finding out about us all over again. Only that this time, I don't have to worry about one of my brothers' reaction, but about two of them.

I love him, I want to shout, but I'm too much of a coward to do so, so instead, I grip Aiden's hand tighter when he threateningly steps forward, and swallow my tears back when I answer. "No I'm not disgusted by myself."

"Say it louder then," comes Tristan's sarcastic reply. The lump in my throat gets bigger. I blink away the blurriness in my eyes.

"You're one to fucking speak," Aiden scoffs loudly. He gently places his hand on mine and pulls it off of his arm, his thumb brushing over my skin softly before letting go completely.

I bite the inside of my trembling lip when Aiden moves forward, coming face to face with Tristan.

Their foreheads are almost touching, but Aiden's towering height keeps Tristan a few inches shorter.

"Pulisci la tua fottuta bocca la prossima volta che parli con lei o di lei.

Continui a mancarle di rispetto e non mi piace un cazzo.

" He grits out.

( Clean your fucking mouth next time you talk to or about her.

You keep disrespecting her and I don't fucking like that.)

"Non merita il mio rispetto." Tristan responds, pushing against Aiden's shoulder with his hand.

(She doesn't deserve my respect.)

I feel my heart beat in my throat when my other brothers step toward him.

Summer's eyes meet mine, a look of remorse on her face.

I look at her feeling betrayed, why wouldn't she tell me about her and Xavier?

We've been best friends our whole lives, she's supposed to tell me those things.

It's not like I have a problem with her being with him. She should know that.

"Xavier, stop." She whispers so quietly I have to read the words off of her lips. He shrugs her hand off his shoulder. She might have betrayed me by not telling me and I might be angry at her for that at the moment, but what my brother just did is definitely not something she deserves.

"Non ha fatto niente di male." Aiden says through gritted teeth. Clearly trying to ignore the way Tristan pushed him. His back muscles sit tense under his tattooed skin. His fists clench around our phones and the two bottles are of water he's holding.

( She hasn't done anything wrong.)

"Ha sbagliato tutto quando ha deciso di stare con te." Tristan fires back. Hunter and Xavier stand like audience by his sides silently.

(She did everything wrong when she decided to be with you.)

It's like a deja vu.

Only that this time, the first fisted hit comes from Aiden.

I almost run the nine feet toward them when Tristan stumbles back into Hunter and Xavier's fist meets Aiden's jaw.

His head snaps to the side, the things he held in his one hand falling to the ground. Aiden doesn't miss a second when he hits him back.

I lick my lips, tasting the savoury taste of my tears when I touch his naked back. My intention of making him stop seeming worthless at the time.

Xavier lands on the floor with Aiden on top of him. The fed up anger realising itself in the fists he throws on my big brother's face. I see Xavier's fists landing on Aiden's ribcage a few times.

Hunter and Tristan join. Mine and Summer's pleads for them to stop going unnoticed. The three of them are onto Aiden, who's pointlessly trying to fight against them. It doesn't matter that he's bigger than them, three against one is clearly a losing game.

The pained grunts leaving his lips pain me. My brothers' heavy breaths playing in my ears like the music in a horror movie.

"It's enough!" Summer gets ignored, much like me.

I wrap my arms around Hunter's waist trying to pull him back. Thankfully, he gives up and moves away from Aiden's lying body. "Penso che sia abbastanza." He says loudly, sounding out of breath. With a few more punches,the other two stop.

(I think that's enough.)

I immediately crouch down against Aiden. He sits up, breathing heavily. With one hand, he wipes away the small a mouth of blood running out of his nose and stands up with my help.

"Fuck you both." Tristan looks between us and walks into the elevator with Hunter.

"I don't want to see you at home." Xavier shakes his head at me and grabs Summer's hand. She gives me a guilty look over her shoulder and gets inside the metal box.

As soon as the doors close, I shut my eyes. The darkness now in view, disposing of the hard reality. Aiden's arms wrap around my body and only then do I open my eyes. I keep my face pressed against his chest, expecting the tears, I held in to fall but they don't and I find myself feeling grateful.

"Are you okay?" He asks after I've calmed down. Lifting my chin up with his hand. He wipes away the dried up tears on my face with the clean one.

I almost roll my eyes at the concerned look on his face. Despite being the one bruised up and bloodied, he makes sure about my well-being.

"You're hurt." I responds instead. My voice hoarse. "Come."

He gives into my silent command and follows me upstairs into the master bathroom. The sunlight from outside seems dull, despite it lighting everything up in gold. Aiden pulls himself up on the countertop when I motion him to do so with my finger.

Getting the first-aid kit from beneath the counter I put some of the clear alcohol on a cotton pad and clean his cut skin with it. His arms around my waist tighten and he flinches slightly.

"I'm sorry about all of this. " Aiden am whispers when I rub antibiotic ointment on his cut up lip. "It wasn't your fault." I give him a reassuring smile, that doesn't quite reach my eyes.

His thumb rubs circles on my hip, "you don't deserve anything they said, you know that right?

You didn't do anything wrong by being happy.

" I pull the first-aid stuff away and look at him.

My arms wrapping around his neck as I stand between his legs.

"I make you happy, right?" He asks, sounding insecure.

My eyes soften. Pulling his head down I kiss his nose, much like he does to me, "you make me the happiest I've ever been." I say. Meaning every. Single. Word.

"Really?"

"Really." I nod, making Aiden smile.

We just look at each other for a few seconds before he talks again. "How do you feel about Summer and Xavier?" Aiden asks.

My eyebrows scrunch together in confusion when I remember his stance from before, "you knew about them?"

He nods.

"For how long?"

"Since it started, months ago." Aiden shrugs.

I move out of Aiden's grip and look at him, "and you didn't tell me?"
