Chapter 12

Autoimmune Disorder

Nothing Gold was a large bar that took on a club vibe after nine p.m. on weekends. It was one of Scott’s favorite spots to pick up women, which made him wonder why the hell he’d decided that it would make a good venue for his friends to hang out with Lauren and hers. Especially after Thursday night. He’d been replaying every detail of their sexcapade for the past two days, and his dick had gotten hard every time. After it was over, they’d put themselves back together, and he’d walked her to her car. Then Lauren had planted a kiss on him that was a promise for more. And Goddamn, did he want more.

“Scale of one to ten, how hot are these chicks?” Xavier asked as he took a sip of his beer.

“Depends on your taste,” Scott replied as he covertly eyed the doorway.

“You know my taste.”

Alex watched Scott intently, obviously interested in the answer.

“If you care so much, why didn’t you ask before you agreed to come? It’s a little late to be picky now. Besides, I didn’t invite them here for you to try to bang them all. They’re a fun group to hang out with.”

Xavier looked skeptical. “Fun means ugly.”

“Jesus Christ, you really are a bastard. Fine. There are four of them. Quinn is the girl-next-door type, dark red hair, freckles, very pretty. Simone is African-American, taller than the others, and curvy in all the right places. Cass is blond, bold, and beautiful. But she reminds me of a praying mantis: she’s awesome to look at, but just may bite your head off after she’s done with you. And lastly there’s Lauren.”

The guys looked at him with expectant eyes. When he didn’t continue, Alex spoke. “And Lauren is?”

“Off limits.” Scott took a long drink of his beer and looked again toward the door. Thankfully the girls chose that moment to make an appearance, so he didn’t have to deal with any shit from Xavier or Alex. He hadn’t told them anything about Lauren. When he’d called to see if they wanted to hang out with some girls, they’d both accepted without much explanation on his part. But he also knew that if either of them tried to hit on her, he wouldn’t react well, so putting it out there seemed like his best course of action.

Lauren spotted him and led the girls toward them. “Hey,” she said as she made her way to him.

“Hey,” he replied. Scott looked at her for a moment, probably a second longer than could be considered casual appraisal, before snapping out of it and introducing the girls to his friends.

“Thanks for meeting up with us,” Cass said. “I mean, I’m sure you could’ve thought of someone else to do—I mean something else. It was nice of you to include us.” Her lips quirked up slightly as she looked pointedly between Scott and Lauren.

Yup, definitely a praying mantis. “What could be better than hanging out with you beautiful ladies?” Scott replied, kicking up the wattage on his smile.
