“Nope. I just packed my bags and blew that popsicle stand.” She attempts to seductively accentuate the word blew as she stares intently at Trent.
God, first this bitch strolls into my apartment drunker than Snooki at the Jersey Shore house, interrupts my finger-banging session, and now she's trying to flirt with Trent. This entire situation is comical. I look back and notice Amy watching the entire spectacle go down from her cozy spot on the living room couch. Amy just grins back at me and I flip her the bird. She laughs loudly before giving me a sympathetic smile, indicating she realizes how hard this entire ordeal is going to be.
“Well how about I go ahead and call everyone, let them know where you're at, and then you can sleep in the spare bedroom tonight.”
“I don't want to go to sleep right now. I want to meet your friend.” She's still staring at Trent, who is currently looking back at me with an amused grin.
“Well my friend—” I start to say but then I am abruptly cut off by Trent.
“Boyfriend.” He's smiling warmly at me, and I can't help but return the smile.
“Lizzy, this is my boyfriend, Trent Hamilton.” I'm shocked that he's already prepared to call himself my boyfriend. We haven't even banged it out for fuck's sake, but I can't deny the fact that I love the idea of Trent and me together.
“Oh. He's your boyfriend? Shit. Where did I go wrong? He's fucking hot.” She appraises him greedily with drunken eyes.
After hearing Lizzy say the word fuck for the fifth time in the last fifteen minutes and eye-fucking Trent for another fifteen minutes, I realize my top priority is to get her boozed-up ass to bed.
“He's all right, but I think it's time for him to leave. He probably has to be up early tomorrow.” I'm attempting to discreetly hint to Trent that we need to cut my sister off from conversation for the rest of the evening.
“Elle is right. I've got an early surgery schedule tomorrow. Nice meeting you, Lizzy.” Trent stands up from the kitchen table and gestures for me to follow him to the door.
“Surgery schedule? What the fuck? You're hot and you're a fucking doctor! Well fuck me sideways and call me Sally. My little sis has hit the jackpot! I'm so fucking jealous of you right now!” Lizzy slurs.
Then she proceeds to pull out a frozen pizza from the freezer.
“I'm fucking hungry! Pizzzzzzzzzaaaaaaa. I want pizzzzzaaaaa.” She tears open the cardboard box and throws the frozen pizza into the oven, which is still currently off. “I can't wait to eat this shit.” Lizzy plops herself down and rests her head in her arms on the kitchen table.
Fingers crossed she passes out.
“I got this, Elle. You go ahead and tell Trent goodnight.” Amy walks into the kitchen and takes over drunk-girl babysitting duties.
“Let me walk you outside. I'd like to say goodnight to you without my sister screaming out about your hotness.” I smirk at him as we walk towards the front door.
Trent places his hand at the small of my back and leads me towards the elevator. We make our way downstairs and outside to his truck. He walks around the back and drops the tailgate down so he can sit on it. Trent wraps his arms around my waist and pulls my body between his thighs.
“Come here, little spitfire.”
I make myself cozy in Trent's embrace and wrap my arms around his neck. He's warm and comfy, and I wish I could stay tucked in his arms for the rest of the night.
“Thanks for letting me off the hook tonight with the boyfriend comment. I think that was the only way Lizzy was going to stop being so relentless in her drunken pursuit of getting into your pants.” I laugh into his chest.
I feel Trent take a deep breath, and strands of my hair blow out past my face. “You really don't get it yet, do you? It's okay. I'm a patient man. I have no problems with waiting until you catch up.”
“Catch up? What are you talking about?”
“When the time is right, we'll have this conversation, but now isn't the right time because right now, I'm going to kiss you.”
Trent gently lifts my chin so I'm looking up at him. His eyes are piercing yet tender. He softly presses his supple lips to mine and proceeds to give me the sweetest kiss I've ever received.
“Ellie girl, tonight was amazing, and I'm one lucky son of a bitch for having a beautiful girl like you agree to have dinner with me.”
“You're crazy, but I'll take the compliments. And I had a wonderful time too. I'm sorry our night was interrupted.” I look down at his hands placed on his lap and start to trace small circles with my fingers on his palms.
“No worries. I'm glad I got to meet your sister Lizzy.”
I raise my eyebrows and give him a look of disbelief. “What? Now you're being really ridiculous. Lizzy is completely shitfaced and not at all like the Lizzy I know.”
