New Rogue

Chapter Ten

I make to climb off Regan’s lap but he grabs hold of my waist.

“You don’t want this.” His words are firm.

I raise my eyebrow at him, “you don’t know what I want.”

“You don’t want me.” He holds my eye contact.

I lean forward and brush my lips against his. “You don’t know what I want.”

He shakes his head, “you don’t understand.” He sounds stressed. “It is more than it seems.”

“Then explain it to me,” I rest my hands on his chest.

He shakes his head again and closes his eyes. I slide my hands up to either side of his face before leaning forward and pressing my lips to his. He is fast to respond and pulls me closer.

A laugh breaks out and I know Juke is now in the shed. I don’t stop though, I need Regan to break first.

He does, he pulls back before sticking his fingers up at Juke. Juke laughs even more and I raise my eyebrow at him.

“Dang, you just aren’t even going to stop with an audience.” He licks across his bottom lip.

“Go away Juke,” Regan snaps with a sigh.

Juke backs out with his smirk still in tact and closes the door.

I push back to get off Regan’s lap but he catches me and pulls me back. He presses his lips back to mine.

I lean away, “you didn’t want this just.”

“I did.” He disagrees. “But now I can’t let you go.”

I look at him confused, “I can’t sit here in your lap forever.”

His fingers tickle my side, “that is not what I meant.”

I sigh and stand from his lap. “Calm down caveman. It was just a kiss, not a marriage proposal.”

I grab my book off the table and stop the music on my phone before walking to the shed door. I push it open and walk out to find the other boys sitting on patio chairs.

Luke grimaces at me before looking away.

I roll my eyes at him, “relax. I was just trying to irritate him.”

Juke winks at me, “I think you ignited another feeling in him instead.”

I flash him my middle finger as I walk off towards the house.

School on Monday rolls around way too quickly. I am surprised to find all of the boys in uniform today.

“I didn’t think you were all still in school,” I query over breakfast.

“Juke is in your year but the rest of us are in the year above. We don’t have any lessons on a Friday, we have free study.” Ithan explains whilst eating a chocolate muffin.

We all head outside and Juke drops his arm over my shoulder. “Riding with me again sunshine?”

A hand grasps mine before tugging. I stumble into a hard chest and look up at Regan with annoyance.

“She rides with me,” he grumbles before staring down at me in challenge.

I roll my eyes at him but allow him to pull me toward his bike. He sits on the front this time and I climb on behind him.

He starts the bike and I make sure my skirt is tucked down again.

I thought the attention was bad when pulling up at the school with Juke but it is so much worse now. Every single pair of eyes are on us when we pull up. I carefully climb off without flashing anyone.

Regan surprises me when he takes my hand in his and begins leading me up the steps. People move out of the way for us and gawk openly.

Regan stops beside my locker and waits for me to put my bag inside.

I glance around and spot Callum standing further down the hall with the football team. He is watching me.

“Stay with Juke today. I will see you at break and lunch okay?” He softly holds my face.

“Okay.” I am still very confused as I look back at Regan.

I startle more when he leans forward and kisses me. It is not a long kiss but it certainly sends a message to everyone around us.

Regan, Luke and Ithan head off down the hallway and I am left dumbfounded with Juke.

I look at him, “what the hell just happened?”

“He just claimed you baby cakes,” Juke shrugs and shuts his locker.
