Jesse (Broken Hill Boys 5)

He pulls me along into the Ryder’s massive garage and I look around in awe. His place is incredible. The kind of shit the boys have in here is amazing. Actually, thinking about it, it’s sickening to know how much money is in this room alone, but I guess that’s just what’s normal for people in Broken Hill.

Jesse walks up to his boat and grins proudly. “Look at her,” he beams, “isn’t she beautiful?”

I look up at the boat and back at him. “Ummm…yes?”

“Damn straight,” he says. Jesse walks forward and starts looking over his boat and throwing in all his skis, wakeboards, life vests, and tubes.

Nate and Tora soon come down, dressed and ready with Tora’s arms filled to the brim with beach towels. Nate slips his phone into his pocket. “Everyone’s coming,” he says toward the boat.

Jesse’s head flies up on the other side. “Even Jackson?” he asks, making me roll my eyes with his newly found obsession with my brother. It’s ridiculous really.

“Yes,” Nate groans. “Even Jackson.”

“Fuck, yeah.”

We pile into Jesse’s Range Rover and as usual, Nate kicks Jesse out of the driver’s seat. I don’t know what that’s about. Maybe it’s a big brother thing where he always needs to feel in control. As he turns on the car and I glance into the front, I finally see the time. 7:10 am.

“What the fuck, Jess?” I screech. “It’s only seven in the morning. Why the hell are we doing this now? Couldn’t we have slept for another few hours and then left?”

Nate and Tora grunt while Jesse looks at me as though I’ve lost my mind. “Are you kidding? I want to make the most of the day. Besides, it’s the middle of summer and Broken Hill Lake is going to be packed. Do you have any idea how good it is to wakeboard when the water is like glass? Trust me, it’s best to be the first ones on the water.”

I roll my eyes and take his word for it. After all, I really have no idea what I’m talking about. We get about halfway there when Nate looks back into the backseat. ‘In three, two, one,’ he mouths.

“Shit. I gotta take a piss,” Jesse says. “Pull over.”

Nate follows instructions and as Jesse jumps out and pulls his dick out of his pants, I look up at Nate. “How’d you know he was going to do that?”

“Because it’s Jess. He’s like a big kid. He gets too excited and forgets to act like a human being. If you don’t remind him to pee before you leave, then you’ll be stopping on the way.”

I laugh and shake my head as I realize that he’s right. I never really noticed it before but since summer came and Jesse’s been out every day, living life to the fullest, there have certainly been more than a handful of times where we’ve had to stop on the side of the road for Jesse to pee.

The idiot in question gets back in the car with a relieved smile and orders Nate to step on it. We get to Broken Hill Lake in no time and just as Jesse had wanted, we’re the first ones here. I watch in amazement as Nate backs the trailer into the water with practiced ease while Jesse sits in the driver’s seat of the boat.

The engine is turned on and in the blink of an eye, the boat is floating out on the water and Jesse is taking off like a fucking pro. It’s honestly the sexiest thing I’ve ever seen. The wind blows through his hair and a massive smile is spread wide over his face. The boat whips and turns and as he drives past me and Tora on the shore, we watch as water is sprayed up in a perfect arc.

As Jesse fucks around and Nate parks the car, I notice Jackson’s Charger pulling in with Puck’s Escalade following behind. Soon enough, everyone is here and Jesse is bringing the boat in toward the shore and attaching it to a buoy to get our day started.

I can’t tear my eyes off him, especially as the early morning sun beams down on his tanned skin. He presses a hand to the side of the boat and launches himself over the side until he’s dropping down into the water.

The water comes up to his waist and he starts walking toward me when the idiot trips over his feet and drops right down into the water until his whole body is submerged. Jackson howls with laughter up in the parking lot while I hear Nate chuckling as he makes his way back down here.

Jesse gets back to his feet, grinning with embarrassment as he flicks his hair, making water droplets glisten in the sun as waters rushes off his body, leaving him looking like my next meal. I’m completely mesmerized. How is it possible for someone to look this good? It’s like a scene out of ‘Aquaman.’
