“Game?” I look to my girl for help.
“We, ugh,” Laney’s cheeks flame. “Well, we spout off our lines as they come and the one who nails the most wins.”
“It’s the southern bible,” Devin explains as if this behavior is normal. “Any true southern woman worth their salt is going to know a line or two of this movie by heart.”
“And what’s the prize?”
Laney shows all her teeth looking up at me fearfully.
“The golden penis,” they all say in unison.
“Courtney was in charge of that,” Laney squeaks.
“Eighteen speeds, brother,” my sister says, pulling a vibrator from a gift bag at her feet. “Would you like to stick around for the demonstration?”
“I think the boy may pass out,” Deidra says, sipping her drink. “Someone get Drum some pork and beans.”
They all burst into laughter, and I’m so lost, I may never come back.
“Walk me out?” I swallow as sweat gathers on my forehead. There is entirely too much estrogen in the room. I turn and run smack into the damned door as my sisters cackle at my back.
If there is a hell made specifically for me, I couldn’t imagine a better depiction than this. “I’ll see you later,” I say, waving a hand behind me.
“Aww, at least give him the ass end of the armadillo cake!” That gem is yelled at my back as I take in the brisk air of the porch.
“Hey, you aren’t mad, are you?” Laney says as I reach my car.
I turn to her and drag her toward me, her Dolly tits pressing against my chest and try to wrap my head around what I just walked into.
All I can do is laugh.
And she laughs with me. “I told you not to go in there.”
Chuckling I look up at her as she eyes me with caution. “You.”
“Me?” She asks with doe eyes.
“Are just…” I shake my head, “incredible.”
“Really?”
“Crazy as hell and fucking amazing.” I crush my mouth to her peach-colored lips and kiss the hell out of her. She grips my jacket and sighs into my kiss. When we pull away, I can feel the eyes through the blinds without bothering to turn my head.
“You know they’re watching.”
“I couldn’t care less.”
“So, you’re not mad then?”
“No, of course not. I was fool enough to think you needed to take them in doses. As it turns out they’re going to be your greatest allies.”
“I really like them a lot.”
“Well, they’re all yours,” I say, pressing my lips to hers, “and so am I.”
Her eyes flood with warmth. “I think it’s going to turn into a slumber party, so I’ll see you tomorrow?”
“Yes,” I say, giving her one last kiss.
