Midnight Angel, Melrose Dawn [an ebook reader .TXT] 📗

/> Before I really got to study him, he strode forward and with large, strong hands, yanked Brandon right off me. As i laid there in awe, with my shirt pulled up on the side, reveling my stomach, the mysterious boy slammed Brandon against the wall. Even though Brandon had more bulk to him, this stranger seemed stronger, which shocked me. Brandon hit the wall hard and slid down it.
"What did i tell you about messing around with girls who don't want you? She's not your girlfriend and she does not need to be treated like white trash. From what ive heard, she's been trying to help you with your homework." He grabbed Brandon's white t-shirt and pulled his face close to his. "Apologize right now Brandon or god help you."
The whole time while the stranger was telling Brandon off, I had just been staring in awe at them both, now that they were both looking at me, I snapped back to reality.
I sat up and swung my legs over the side of the bed, pulling my shirt down over my stomach. My eyes moved from the floor up to Brandon's face. He slowly stood up and met my eyes with a look of humiliating dancing across his face.
"Sorry Ri, you know i was just playing with you. No hard feelings right?" Brandon dropped his eyes after he finished. I couldn't be mad at him, hes one of my best friends.
"Its ok Brandon, you were just having a little fun, but seriously next time you want to do a girl, don't force yourself on her. Your an amazing person hun, so you shouldn't have any problem getting a girl. i bet her clothes will fall off." I shrugged and placed my hands in my lap, entwining together.
"Okay, now behave yourself and don't let me come back and find you trying anything again. Ill be in my room." The stranger turned around and started to move towards the door.
"Wait Jace, why are you here anyways? Aren't you suppose to be at college? It's only the beginning of May." The guy named Jace stopped, then turned back toward us. His eyes met mine and he started to speak.
"Well little brother, since i only go to college a few hours away from here and i have a very nice car that i bought with my big pay checks, i felt like i could come home whenever i wanted to. But clearly im not welcome here. Good thing i did come home though, or Riley is it?" Jace arched his eye brows and i quickly nodded, then he continued. "Or Riley would have been in big, or should i say small trouble." He laughed and winked at me. I blushed and looked away. Brandon started fuming. He made his way to the bed and sat next to me, massaging his shoulder.
I glanced back up at the emo version model. He was still smiling at me. His pure white teeth shone in the light. The black t-shirt he was wearing was stretched tight across his muscular chest. I glanced down at the rest of this body, long torso, slim waist. The faded dark blue jeans hung loosely on his hips, but in other places at the moment seemed quite snug. I slowly slid my eyes back up and found him watching me examine him. Our eyes locked and i found myself unable to look away.
"Jace, you know i wouldn't have gone that far and seriously, even though your two years older then me, mine has to be bigger." The rest of what Brandon was saying was lost to me. Jace's eyes bore into mine and i could think of nothing else. He cocked his head to the side the same way Brandon did, but when Jace did it, it was like.. wow, he only had eyes for me. "I cant even believe all these years i let you push me around." Brandon was saying.
"Hey Riley, do you want me to give you a ride home?" Brandon looked pissed that Jace had cut him off.
"There's no need, dad said i could use the spare car when i needed. So when she is ready to go home, im more then capable of taking her, but as for leaving, you can get out." Brandon pointed to the door. Jace looked at it, back at me, then started laughing. His laugh was so relaxed and chill. And to me, a total turn on.
"Are you seriously kicking me out of your room?"
"Yeah, i totally am." And Brandon pointed to the door again, and Jace just looked at me. I suddenly got the strange feeling he didn't want to leave me there alone, but never the less to my amazement, he headed to the door and stepped out. Jace turned in the door way and with one last stunning smile at me, shut the door.
The snap of the door brought me out of my little fantasy world. I looked at Brandon to find him looking back at me funny. Shoot i thought, i had had a smile on my face. I quickly put a unreadable face on.
"Sorry about him Ri, he's a freshman in college down in Ohio and he thinks he owns the world. It's stupid really. So about this, still willing to help?" Brandon grabbed his chem book and started making funny faces while trying to read it. I giggled, you idiot.


Chapter 2

"Riley, seriously, ive told you already i don't know the answer, but give me the god damn candy already!" Brandon reached for the candy in my hand. I put the other one on his chest and shoved him away.
"Brandon, i brought this candy so when you got an answer right, you could have it, but in order to get the candy, you have to get the answer right. You've already had a ton of these." I waved the recces just out of reach. "And
