"Ready to head home?" Teenie asks in my ear.

"Yeah. Bed sounds nice."

"Bed? Yeah, a bed sounds reeaall niiice," I hear a man slur as a strong arm comes around my right side, and hot breath at my neck. Tequila is a potent smell, and I immediately know it's Brendan.

Turning to face him, I state, "So go find a woman, tie her up, spank her, whip her, and do all other sorts of things with her. Your bed. Your business."

"I don't want another women."

My eyes go wide and my mouth almost drops to the floor. Even in his obvious drunken state, his eyes are gazing at me with such fervor that my body goes from tired to amped and tingly in his personal space.

"You're drunk."

"Maybe I am, and maybe I'm not," He responds then takes a long swig of his Corona.

Just seeing his lips touch the top of that bottle, his Adam's apple move as he swallows, and his tongue swipe a trickle of beer that escaped the side of his mouth has me hot and bothered. If I didn't want him so much, I would smack him for trying to tempt me.

"You need to get home. You don't look so good."

"Addy," he says as he puts his arms around my shoulders. I'm sure this steadies him more than showing some kind of friendly gesture. "You think I can have any woman in the place, but in fact, I can't."

"Bren, your drunk. You need to go home."

"Alone. Alone. All alone." It sounds like he's starting to sing. What was going through his head to make him drink so much? Now I feel bad, and my responsibility as his family is to get him home. I can't call Brayden or he'll know we were out together. I have to do this by myself.

"Teenie, help me call a cab. I'm going to make sure this one gets home."
