Page 31 of Breaking Free

I shake my head and march back to the living room. He’s just another guy.

“So, I hear you’re looking forward to a certain someone showing up,” an inebriated Ronan says when I enter the kitchen.

I glare at Renzo who pulls Ronan into his side and kisses his temple. “I tell him everything.”

I roll my eyes and glance around to make sure nobody else is paying attention. “What do you want me to say? Yeah, he’s hot.” I barely whisper the last two words.

“And you like him,” Renzo says.

“I wouldn’t say that,” I mumble, reaching around him and into the fridge.

“Ooh, is this hate fucking?” Ronan asks.

Renzo chuckles. “Not sure they’ve even gotten that far yet.”

“I really hate that you two know about this.”

“Nah, you need us,” Renzo says. “We’re your only outlet. Look, I know I give you a hard time, but if you like him.” I pin him with a look. “Or think he’s hot,” he amends, rolling his eyes. “Then just do whatever you wanna do. But watch the eye-fucking. It’s easy to notice.”

I groan. “Yeah, yeah.”

“Dom’s on his way,” Jay says, popping over my shoulder. “He just texted me.”

Renzo meets my gaze before his eyes bounce to Jay and back. “Y’all are friends, too?”

Jay laughs. “Too? I’d hardly say Trev has even been nice to the guy,” he jokes, bumping my arm. “I told him not to worry about him taking his spot on the team. But anyway, Dom’s cool. Nice to look at, too, yeah?” he says with a wide grin and a wink before walking off.

Ronan and Renzo wear matching expressions as they look at me—brows raised, lips slightly parted. Renzo speaks up first.

“Um, do I really need to say it?”

“What?” I ask, annoyance creeping into my tone.

“Jay and Dom could totally hit it off. You know Jay’s flirtatious and to the point. If he doesn’t know you’re into this guy, he could make a move.”

My eyes find Jay who’s resting his arm on Bryant’s shoulder as he talks to Shea and Liv. All eyes are glued to him, everyone entranced by whatever he’s saying. He has that way about him. People love being around Jay. He’s just a positive and good-hearted person. I have no doubt Dom could be into him.

“I’m not worried about it right now.”

“Who’s the new guy,” Violet says as she pushes her way between us to get to the fridge.

We all look toward the door and I find Dex and Jayden talking to Dom. Renzo looks like he doesn’t know what to say, which is weird for him. He’s always running his mouth.

“That’s Dominic,” I answer. “He transferred from Grand Valley.”

“Oh, football player? I mean, he has the size,” she says, holding a beer.

Renzo gazes down at his sister. “You’re drinking that?”

She makes a face. “No, it’s for Dex.”

“Yeah, he’s on the team,” I tell her.

“He’s hot.”

“Yeah,” me, Ronan, and Renzo all say at the same time.

I don’t even realize my slip until I notice three pairs of wide eyes staring at me. “I mean, what?”
