Everything Changes (18 page)

  “Won’t do that again will you” he winks and let’s go. I purse my lips and narrow my eyes.

   “Well that was mean!” I huff
I seem to act like a child when I’m near him. It’s like I want him to take the piss out of me.

   “Are we friends again?” Tyler whispers in my ear. I shiver again but it has nothing to do with the cold.

   “I thought we still were it’s not my fault you got your boxers in a bunch about it”

  He gives me a weird look but doesn’t say anything.

   “So am I allowed to come in or do you want to come to mine?” he asks.

   “Yours
I’ll go and get some stuff to take” he nods and follows me. “Just warning you now, Jack overheard our ‘discussion’ earlier” Tyler groans and follows me inside. The house is quiet. Justin and Melissa are probably in his room, and I’m guessing so is Jack. I sigh with relief and walk to my bedroom and pack a little bag of stuff I’m going to need. Once I’ve got everything I walk back in the front room. Tyler is sitting on the sofa on his phone.

   “
I’m ready” He puts his phone away and gets up. He takes the bag off me and leads me out the house.

  I’m not sure why but it feels different. We don’t talk much on the drive there.

  When we arrive I climb out
of the car and go to retrieve my bag from the back but Tyler tuts and frowns.

   “It i
sn’t heavy so it doesn’t matter” I pick it up and walk to his front door, leaving him at the car.

   “My place babe
I’ve got the key” I roll my eyes. He opens the door and I walk over to the sofa and drop down. He shuts the door and comes over to me.

   “Our easy going friendship has gone hasn’t it?” I ask. He stays quiet for a couple of minutes.

  “Yeah, I don’t know what to do” I crawl over the sofa and on to his lap and sigh. He wraps his arms around me tight and kisses my hair.

   “I think it
’s because we’ve slept together”

   “Me and you are not made to be just friends Cass, it’s like we are torturing ourselves with this. We have to hold
back on most things”

   “Do you think it would be better if we just gav
e up? Stop trying to be friends” The words leave a bitter taste in my mouth.

   “No. Fucking. Way. I can’t lose you Cass, even if we are struggl
ing, I just can’t lose you babe” We stay quiet for a little while, just me on curled up on his lap and his arms tight around me.

   “Do you ever wish we didn’t sleep together, Tyler?”

   “No, I know you being pissed and I on the verge of losing control wasn’t the best first time for us but I wouldn’t change it for the world. Having you wrapped around me made me feel like I’m complete. I felt whole just having that bit of connection to you” I melt at his words. “Do you regret it Cass?” he asks in a low voice. I can hear the trepidation in his voice in case I say I do.

   “I wouldn’t say I regret it, I regret that we did it when
you’re with Georgina but that is it”, he nods his head.

   “I’m sorry, I couldn’t take it no more. The amount of times I used my hand to try and keep me at least a little sane. But as you say my hand just wasn’t cutting it anymore, I needed you Cass. Like
I needed to breathe, I still do”

   “You’re like a born romantic, aren’t you? Did you swallow Romeo and Juliet?” I laugh softly into his chest. He brushes his hand over my ribs in a warning. I stop laughing immediately.

   “Oh, no you don’t mister!” he chuckles and stands up with me still on him. He wraps an arm around my arse and urges me to wrap my legs around his waist. I wrap my arms around his neck and snuggle my face in his neck. He smells so good. He picks up my bag from the sofa and walks into his bedroom.

  He drops me down on the bed and puts the bag beside the bed.

   “I need to be close to you skin on skin” He bends down and slips off my shoes and socks. He lefts the hem of my top and pulls it over my head, then he pushes my shoulder lightly so I fall down on the bed. He grips the jogging bottoms and I lift my hips so he can get them down. I’m sitting in my bra and shorts. He takes the shorts off so I’m just in my underwear and bra.

  He looks as If he is trying to decide if he wants me completely naked. Not that I’d mind but I know it would be too tempting. I sit back up and undo the button and slide down the zipper to his jeans. He slips his shoes and socks off and slides his jeans down.

   “So you do own boxers” I smile up at him. He winks and takes his shirt off. He climbs on the bed and gets under the covers. He pulls my arm so I’m draped all over his body.

   “Not good enough
”, he grumbles and shifts me so I’m lying over him completely. “Better” I sigh and rest my check on his peck.

  We lay in silence, it feels more like we are
regaining our connection back. We both drift off to sleep after a while. I sigh in contentment.

Tyler

  I can’t do it, I pace back and forward in the room I’ve been shoved in. Shit, shit, and shit. At this precise moment I’m not happy with my dick, it’s his fault! Cassie isn’t even here yet! Oh shit, I’m going to lose it. I fist my hands in my hair and tug, hoping the slight bit of pain would help. No such luck.

  I pull my phone out for the millionth time, no texts, and no phone calls. I’m praying she still turns up. I wouldn’t blame her if she didn’t. But I’m a selfish man and I need her here.
I send her a quick text, hoping it doesn’t look as pathetic as I know I’m acting. I haven’t even put on the suit yet. The sweat pouring off me would make me look like Lee Evans in the middle of one of his shows.

  I hear a soft knock on the door. I stride over to the door and fling it open. I see Georgina’s dad standing on
the other side. My heart sinks I was hoping it was Cassie already. I check my phone once again and see the wedding starts in under an hour. Jesus I feel sick!

   “What can I do for you, Steve?” I try and make my voice sound calm and unaffected but I know I’ve probably failed.

   “Just making sure you’re holding up, son” Basically meaning making sure I’m still here and ready to marry his bitch of a daughter.

   “Cool as a cuc
umber” The fake grin on my face should probably put him at ease. He nods and walks away. I close the door and lean up against it. I hear another knock.

   “I said I’m fine S
te-” the breath gets knocked out of my lungs when I see Cassie looking stunning on the other side. I grab her arm and pull her in the room and slam the door shut, I flick the lock and pull her tight against my chest. I take a deep breath. Fuck I can breathe.

   “Have you just got out the shower or something?
You’re soaked” I grimace and pull back.

   “Nope, this is sweat. Freaking out that I’m getting married the fact you hadn’t turned up yet. I thought I w
as going to have a heart attack” I sigh, I feel a little calmer now she is here.

   “Well go and have a shower and try and cool off”
, she says and pulls away. Not touching her makes me feel a little less calm now. I need to pull it together. Anyone would think I’m going to walk down for my death sentence. Jesus that’s what it feels like.

  I nod and walk into the little bathroom connected to the room and turn the shower on. I strip out my clothes and jump in the shower. In cold water at first is like a jolt to
the system. The water heats up I stand there leaning up against the wall letting the hot water beat down on me. How the fuck am I going to be married? I could handle it if it was Cassie I’m marrying. I squeeze my eyes shut and try and think of something else to take my mind off of it.

 
Cassie lying on her bed fucking herself with that damn vibrator, Cassie stuffing her face with pizza on my sofa, Cassie throwing her head back laughing at something I said, Cassie looking at me with them fuck me eyes at work, Cassie and I kissing for the first time.

  Before I even realise what I’m doing, I stroke my hard cock. The thoughts of C
assie and I has done this. Maybe I wouldn’t be so tense if I done this. I stroke again. Fuck it doesn’t feel as good as being inside Cassie. Nothing does. We pushed it by doing it the first time but fuck did I feel good. I can still taste her on my tongue. The taste of her coming in my mouth, I thought I was going to be like a damn teenager and come in my shorts.

  I stroke faster. I squeeze my hand a little tighter and groan. Ah fuck. I throw my head back and moan Cassie’s name.
Shit that was fast. Once I’m finished in the shower I open the little curtain and see Cassie sitting on the toilet. Not peeing just sitting waiting for me. She has a smirk on her beautiful face so I’m guessing she heard me.

   “
Nice was I?”

   “Always, baby
” I wink and grab the towel from the rack. She smiles and gets up and walks back in the room. I watch her light blue dress swish around her thighs. The back is non-existent. And the front has a low cut neck line her tits look amazing in it. Just got to make sure no other fucker sees her.

Cassie

   “Yes Tyler I am coming back, I just need some air” And to try and talk to her dad.

   “Can’t you just stand by the window?” he asks. I roll my eyes and sigh.

   “No. you’ll be fine! I’ll see you soon” I lean up and kiss his cheek. I turn when I feel a slap on my arse. I turn back around the stare at him with my mouth open.

   “Did you just slap my arse?”

   “I did, your arse looks amazing in this dress. I just had to, it was basically begging me too”, he grins. I laugh and turn and walk out the door.

  I find her dad pretty easy. He is leaning up against the pillar near the back on his phone. When I thought of her dad I was thinking an overweight, ugly man. Surprisingly he looks fit and toned for someone his age. Not many grey hairs and built like a brick shithouse. I blow out a big breath and build up the courage to walk over to him.

  I stand in front of him he drags his eyes lazily of my body and tells the person on the phone he will call them back.

   “
Well hello there beauty. How can I help you? I don’t remember Georgina having you as a friend. I certainly would have remembered you” he has a wicked smile on his face. I suppress my shudder of disgust. This is the man that had Tyler beat up because he wouldn’t marry Georgina willingly. He has people watching his family all because of her.

   “I was wondering if we could have a word in
private” I look around and see people filling in through the open church doors.

   “Anything for you sweetie
”, he winks and places his hand on the bottom of my back. I fight my natural instincts to move away from his hand. He opens the door to a room off the corridor near Tyler’s room. I’m quite glad he is freaking out in there I know he won’t come out until he actually has too.

  He closes the door and walks over the drinks cabinet near the door.

   “Drink?” I shake my head and sit on the edge of the arm chair. I’m not really sure what this room is for but I don’t want to spend too much time thinking about it.

  He sits
down the sofa to the side of me he sits with his elbows on his knees and takes a sip of his drink.

   “S
o what can I do for you darlin’?”

   “I want you to stop thi
s ridiculous farce of a wedding” I blurt out. Jump straight to the point Cassie. I see him tense.

   “
And why should I do that?”

   “
Because you know it isn’t right. You’re forcing Tyler to marry someone just because your daughter wants too”

   “Ahh so your Tyler’s little friend t
hat Georgina kept whining about” He swirls his drink around his glass and takes another sip.

   “
Yes” I almost sound nervous. Fuck sake Cassie don’t show him you’re weak. He will crush you like a bug.

   “You’ve upset my daughter badly, Cassi
e was it? She hurt her hand too”, he muses. I look up and see his hard grey eyes staring at me.

   “Technically she punched the wall, that’s not my fault and she was the one who kept coming after me. I’v
e never actively looked for her”

   “And why would she punch the wall?”

   “She tried to punch me but I moved. I’m not going to purposely let myself get punched”

  He stares at me.

   “I like you your strong and not afraid of me. I’ve had bigger men actually piss themselves because they have met me but you, your openly defending yourself to me about
my
daughter” I wouldn’t go so far as to say I’m not scared of him but he doesn’t need to know that.

   “
Thank you” I say gracefully. I know when to accept a compliment. Even if it was a weird one like that. I feel my phone vibrate inside my bra.

   “
So you want me to stop this marriage? Is it because you don’t agree with it or because you have feelings for Tyler?”

   “
Both. No-one should be forced to marry if they don’t want to. What are you going to gain from this forced marriage? You won’t get grandchildren if that’s what you’re after” He narrows his eyes on me. I hold my head up high and don’t show him I’m affected by his presence. He isn’t going to belittle me and make me feel weak.

   “I don’t need grandchildren from Georgina. I alrea
dy have some from my other kids” Oh Jesus Christ, there’s more?

   “So what do you get out of this then? Other than making two people’s lives miserable?”

   “Georgina may stop whining, an easier life maybe?” he downs the rest of his drink and puts it on the table.

   “You coul
d have that without all of this” I gesture my arm around the room. He doesn’t get a chance to say anything else when the door slams open. I openly gawk at the sight before me. Well fuck this is not what I was expecting. Georgina in her wedding dress has her legs wrapped round a bloke I can’t see because she is basically mauling his face. Both their eyes are closed so they can’t see we’re here. The mystery man pushes Georgina up against the door and hitches her up a little more. She moans and continues to attack his face. Poor man, I sneak a look at her dad and see his face his tense and red. His hard grey eyes are watching everything that’s happening. He stands up.

   “What the fuck do you think you’re doing Georgina!” he shouts. Fuck I think my eardrums just burst. The mystery man drops Georgina like a sack of shit and turns around the stare at us.
He pales when he sees Georgina’s dad. He slowly backs out the room and runs down the corridor.

   “Don’t make me ask you again
”, he growls. I’m glad I got the nicer version of him.

   “It’s not what it looks like dadd
y”, she whimpers. Not what it looks like? What else could they be doing? She was basically eating his face.

   “Not what it looks like? Are you fucking serious Georgina Rose? I’m not fucking blind! I know exactly what I saw. Or are you saying I’m wrong?” she shakes her head with tears running down her face. She gets a glimpse of me and narrows her eyes.

   “What the fuck are you doing here? And why are you talking to my daddy?” I shake my head before I can even answer her dad butts in.

   “It has no concern to you what she was talking to me about. Other than the fact you hav
e humiliated me in front of her” Georgina flinches.

   “But daddy! She wants Tyler!” she whines. He
r dad and I both wince. Fuck that voice.

   “Well looks like you’re not having him so what if she has him. Obviously you don’t
want him enough considering you was all over that boy” He practically spits the words out. He turns to me.

   “You can go. And tell Tyler
to as well. I’m sorry for this” I nod. My heart starts galloping in my chest. He’s free? He can be mine? I walk past him and walk past Georgina. I can see she wants to say something to me but stops when her dad clears his throat. I walk out of the room and close the door softly. As soon as I close the door the shouting resumes.

  I walk as quickly as I can to the room Tyler is in and swing open the door. I chuck my bag on the nearest chair and literally jump at him. He catches me with a dazed face. I smash my lips to his and fist his hair in my hands.

  He kisses me back with as much force and moans. I pull away and he stares at me.

   “Shit what are you doing Cass?” he asks slightly out of breath.

   “Your free, Tyler! Your mine!” I basically shout in his face. He frowns.

   “What are you talking about?”

   “I went to talk to her dad and as we were talking Georgina came bursting through the door dry humping another man. She was all over his face. How the fuck did you ever kiss her?” he looks stunned.

   “I don’t have to marry her?” he asks slowly. I shake my head grinning like an idiot.

  I watch as understanding crosses his handsome face. His eyes darken and turn to me.

   “Do you know what this means Cassie?” I shake my head. “This means your mine!” my breath catches in my throat. He puts his lips on my and kisses me. He pulls away and places me on my feet.

   “Grab your stuff!” I pick up my bag and do a quick check to see if Tyler has left anything. He puts a duffel bag over his shoulder and drags me out the room.

   “Will you slow down, you do know I have heels on right?” he stops briefly and picks me up and carry’s me bridal style out.
Ironic I think.

  He puts me down beside his car.

   “How did you get here?”

   “Melissa
” I shrug. He nods and opens the door for me. He drives out of the car park like the fire of hell is coming to get him.

   “What’s the rush?” I already know I just need the conformation.

   “In the next five minutes I’m going to be inside you, I promised myself that the next time we had sex there wouldn’t be a drop of alcohol in your body. There isn’t is there?” I shake my head and look at him. I place my hand on his leg and he puts his hand over mine.
