Chapter Seventeen

“But you’re sure he hasn’t choked on his own vomit or anything, right?” Melanie asked as she headed for the hall.

“I’m sure,” Tyse smiled patiently. “He was just completely and utterly passed out in his room, but definitely breathing. And no vomit.”

She didn’t care if Tyse felt she was being over concerned. Jack told her about his conversation with Jay when she woke up that morning, and then she wasn’t able to get a hold of him when she returned his call. The last thing she wanted to worry about was where Jay was.

When she entered his room, she could literally smell alcohol in the air. There were various bottles on the nightstand and floor, and Jay was sprawled across the bed in just his boxer briefs. He was on his stomach with his face turned sideways, and Melanie felt for his breath against her hand.

With a sigh she began picking up the bottles, but then thought against it. Instead of disposing of them, she lined the mix of beer bottles and hard liquor along his nightstand.

When she walked past the bed, his hand reached out and brushed her skirt. She paused to look at the hungover smile on his face as he rolled to his back. Good God, she wished the sight of him didn’t make her stomach dance like it did. She wanted to climb up on his body and lick every one of his tattoos.

“Whatcha doing here, pretty girl?” he mumbled as he rubbed both his hands over his face. “Thought you were staying with Jackoff for the weekend.”

Melanie sat on the edge of the bed, and when he looked at her, she looked him straight in the eye. “Checking on you, asshole. You wouldn’t answer my calls, and even when I got a hold of Tyse and he said you were home, I still had to make sure.”

“Why?” he laughed as he sat up. “Ah, holy fuck,” he exhaled, holding his head between his hands.

“Slight headache? Couldn’t be because of that, could it?” she pointed to the nightstand.

Jay glanced at the bottles nicely lined up and smiled. “Yeah, I spent the night with Jack, too.”

She rolled her eyes at the empty bottle of Jack Daniels and started to leave the room.

“Hey babe, where you going?” Jay called.

Just hearing him call her that made her want to kiss him and strangle him at the same time. But she wasn’t sure if she was in the mood for his attitude this morning. When Jack told her that Jay got pissed talking about Jordan, all sorts of images flashed in her head. She’d put off telling Jay that her ex had moved closer to her because she didn’t want him to do something stupid.

“I’m going to lunch with Tyse,” she finally answered.

“What the fuck? Why?” Jay asked, sliding off the bed. He came across the room where she was standing at the door.

“What do you mean why? Because I’m hungry and I asked him. It was a two-and-a-half hour drive from Jack’s and I left pretty much right after I woke up.
