Wanna Bet? (18 page)

“
Sure” I shrug
and follow him to the pool table “I’ll rack, you break” I offer as
we reach is.

I try my best
to ignore my friends as the game progresses but it isn’t easy when
they are only about ten feet away from us.

“
Come on
Brooke” Sophie cheers.

“
No fair, you
get cheerleaders” Andrew chuckles tapping me on the shoulder with
his cue as he joins me at the top of the table so I can line up my
shot.

“
You have your
fan base” I smirk and nod my head at the group of girls that are
huddled by the table watching his every move.

“
Bend over any
more and you’ll give your fans a heart attack” he smirks back at me
and nods to the bar, I turn to see a group of men staring down my
dress.

“
Ass” I mutter
as I take my shot much to his amusement.

“
Tis a very
nice one” He winks at me and hits my backside with his
stick.

“
You’re just
jealous because I’m more entertaining to watch” I tease
him.

“
Want to bet
on that?” he asks raising an eyebrow.

“
What’s in
it?” I ask not about to back down from the challenge.

He takes a
step towards me so only our pool cues in front of us are separating
us and lowers his voice.

“
I bet that I
get approached by someone of the opposite sex before you
do”

“
That’s not
fair, you know everyone here”

“
Not everyone,
people we know aren’t included”

“
What happens
if I win?”

“
If you win,
I’ll do what ever three things you want, you win and you have to do
three things I want and just so you know in advance it will be very
embarrassing so back out while you can” he smirks at me.

“
No chance”
h
is arrogance surprises me,
he’s so sure he’s going to win. “You’re on” I whisper and lean up
to kiss his cheek.

“
Go tell your
friends not to come up then” he smiles at me.

I head over
to the table where they are all sat, I walk around Tucker who
hasn’t even noticed my approach because of the girl sat on his knee
and make a beeline for Matt who is thankfully not sat down but just
returning to the table.

“
You owe me,
so make sure no one I know comes over to me at the table no matter
what I do next okay?”

“
What are you
going to do?” he asks looking amused.

“
You don’t
want to know, but I am going to kill you tomorrow and not speak to
you for a month” I grumble as I head back towards Andrew who is
racking the balls setting up for a new game. “Your break” he grins
at me.

I bend over
to take my shot but stop when I catch sight of him lifting the
bottom of his shirt up to scratch his stomach revealing a few
muscles I’m sure he spent hours at the gym to get. I hear a few
giggles from girls around the bar and roll my eyes when I notice
that one of them is Sophie’s.

Once I have
taken my shot I look up at the ceiling and pretend to look
thoughtful.

“
What’s
wrong?” Andrew asks coming around to stand next to me and look at
the ceiling
as
well.

“
Just
wondering how I’m going to make it obvious which itch I need
scratched” I shrug and he bursts out laughing.

“
Watch and
learn” he winks at me bending over so his rear is at the right
angle for the ladies to ogle.

I position
myself so I’m in direct sight of his corner vision and directly in
front of the guys sat at the bar as I wrap my leg around the pool
cue three times.

He misses his
shot and turns his head to get a better look at my leg I pull the
cue out from the coil instead of unwrapping my leg from it and
smile sweetly at him “Did you miss?”

He shakes his
head at me and watches at I bend over the table slowly to take my
shot, my ball goes in and I stand at the side of the table, I don’t
look at Andrew I just look at the table putting on a concentrated
expression and mindlessly run my index finger from my throat to my
chest and back up a few times. I bend over the pool table still at
the side and look over at the men sat at the bar and smile shyly at
them looking up from under my lashes.

I miss the
shot and pout at the table.

“
Brooke” Luke
says and I hear him ask someone what I’m doing. I look up to see
Matt pull him back down when he tries to stand and shake his head
at him. Everyone at the table is watching me, Matt looks amused,
Sophie and Kate look impressed, Tucker looks annoyed and the girl
who is still sat on his lap is looking at me curiously.

One of the
men from the bar stands up and starts to walk towards us but Andrew
strips his shirt off then makes a point of looking at his shirt and
then his cue before he looks around helplessly, as if timed a girl
steps out of no where and takes his shirt from him making him grin
and raise his eyebrows at me as the guy from the bar finally
reaches me.

“
Can I buy you
a drink?” he asks staring at my chest.

I glare at
Andrew who just smirks at me.

“
I’m sorry,
that’s very generous of you but I’m actually here with my fiancé” I
tell him putting disappointment into my voice and slipping my left
hand behind my back as I gesture towards Andrew, the girl he’s with
hears m
e and walks away from
him pouting.

“
Oh, sorry” he
says then returns to the bar shaking his head.

“
So we’re
engaged?” Andrew chuckles down at me as he wraps and arm around me
and pulls me under his arm.

“
You cheated;
I have no clothes I can take off!” I accuse adding a pout for good
measure.

“
Uh huh, not
gonna work on me” he ruffles my hair and then grabs my arms
spinning me around so I’m face to face with him.

When it’s too
late I realise he still has no shirt on and I let my eyes trail
over his upper body, “What do you want me to do?” I ask nervously
when I drag my eyes up to his.

“
We’ll get to
that in a minute, see that girl sat on your friends lap behind us?”
he asks and I move my head to the side to look at the girl on
Tuckers lap. “What about her?” I ask still watching her.

“
Look at this”
he pulls his phone out of his pocket and logs into Facebook, after
a few minutes he passes me the phone and I’m watching a video. It’s
of two young girls and two young boys, no older than
ten.

“
What am I
looking at?” I ask looking up at him.

“
Just keep
watching” he says and I move my eyes back to the video.

The camera
zooms in and I notice the little girl is me, I’m dancing in a
paddling pool and calling out to someone called Mel, the second
little girl joins me in the po
ol and dances with me, then we both start screaming when
two boys run past us and throw what looks like ice cream in our
hair. The video goes blurry as me and the girl start chasing the
boys around the garden.

“
That’s me,
but I don’t understand” I admit looking up at him once the video
has ended.

“
That’s me,
you, my brother and the girl in the video is Mel. Mel is also sat
on your friends lap over there”

“
Okay…” I
frown and look back to the girl who is apparently Mel. I squint at
her but still don’t recognise her at all not like when I saw Andrew
in the restaurant.

“
I don’t
remember her” I tell him turning back.

“
I don’t think
she remember you either so don’t worry about it”

“
How many more
videos have you got?” I ask looking at the phone in my
hand.

“
There’s a
few, get your phone out and I’ll add you on Facebook and tag you in
them”

I walk past
him to the table my friends are sat at.

“
Can I have my
phone please?” I ask Sophie, she has my phone and purse in her bag
because I didn’t bring one.

“
Why? He
already has you’re number” she frowns at me getting her bag off the
floor.

“
He’s sending
me a video” I reply impatiently.

“
You have to
show me it!” she exclaims handing me my phone I shake my head at
her and return to Andrew logging into my Facebook app.

“
Brooke
Daniels right? Which one is you?” he asks showing me the list of
Brooke’s that have come up from his search, I point to the third
one and accept the request on my phone.

“
Okay I’ll tag
you in them later, want you’re first challenge?” he asks me
smirking.

“
Of course” I
nod at him and prepare myself mentally.

“
You have to
get eight people to do a body shot”

I turn to the
table and count six people, I look back to Andrew and note he’s the
seventh; he notices me trying to work it out mentally and grins. I
turn and head to the bar to order the eight shots, limes and some
salt.

The girl with
Andrew shirt comes to stand next to me at the bar and I smile to
myself as an idea comes clearly into my mind.

I place the
tray of shots, lime slices and salt onto the table and gesture for
Andrew to join us.

“
You six have
to do a bo
dy shot, each, off
each other” I announce to them.

“
What? Why?”
Luke asks but is cut off by Katie nudging him.

I clear the
table and gesture for Matt to lay down, I set him up for the shot
and Sophie comes to take it, as soon as he is up and off the table
Sophie lays down and I set her up for one. I do the same for Katie
and Luke then Tucker lays down on the table I call Mel over and
everyone except Andrew is surprised that I know her name, they all
stare at me and I look away when she starts licking the salt off
Tuckers stomach. She lays down on the table once he is up and he
does the same to her but again I look away. I set Andrew up for the
shot as soon as he is led down and just like I told her the girl
from the bar does the shot. Everyone sends me different looks but I
ignore them and set the girl up for Andrew to take his
shot.

“
You cheated”
he laughs at me once the girl has jumped down from the table and
rejoined her friends.

“
You said I
had to get eight people to do a body shot, not that I had to be one
of them” I smile my most innocent smile at him.

“
You wouldn’t
have done it anyway would you?” he asks

“
I only just
met you, I can’t lick you when I don’t even know you” I
shrug.

“
I’m going to
have to be more specific with the other two I can see”

“
While you
think of them I’m going to get another drink, when I come back I
expect to see you fully clothed” I call over my shoulder as I sit
on a bar stool waiting to place my order.

“
What was that
all about?” Matt asks slipping onto the stool next to
me.

“
I lost a bet”
I glare at him “Don’t ask and I’m seriously going to kill you
tomorrow, do you have any idea how drunk I’m going to have to get
just so I can get through the next two things I have to
do?”

“
What have you
got to do?” he asks grinning at me making me glare
harder.

“
I don’t even
know yet!”

“
Anyway Soph
sent me over to ask if you’re going home with Andrew
tonight”

“
No!” I answer
surprised that Sophie would even have to ask

“
She said
you’d say that so she wants to know if you want to stay in our room
tonight”

“
Why?” I ask
frowning at him confused.

“
Umm … well”
he doesn’t finish the sentence just gestures with his head to our
table, I look over and see Tucker whispering something in Mel’s ear
making her giggle and bite her bottom lip.

“
Oh … I know
her … or I used to anyway. He wouldn’t bring her back to the room
would he? I mean, he knows there’s only one bed”

“
Can I have
four shots of tequila, a jager bomb and a bottle of beer please?” I
ask the bartender as soon as he stands in front of me.

“
I’m not sure
but you can stay in our room just in case” Matt says frowning at
the drinks being placed in front of me “Who are they for?” he
asks.

“
Me” I say
distractedly as I pay for the drinks.

“
Brooke you
are not going to drink all them and not be sick” he says
unbelievably.

I don’t
reply. Surely Tucker wouldn’t bring someone back to a room knowing
that I’ll be in the bed too, first shot. He wouldn’t do anything
with her after last night, this morning and this afternoon, second
shot. Although he is all over her and has been since we got here,
third shot. Maybe I didn’t drop my knickers quick enough, fourth
shot. He’s probably laughing at me for everything I told him about
the dream and stuff I wince and slam the now empty jager bomb glass
down.

“
No?” I ask
Matt picking up my beer and taking a sip.
