I bolted down the stairs quickly behind Riley as she ran away from me. I was right on her heels in case she fell down the stairs.  She was still wobbly on her feet and I was about to be sick every time I watched her little foot barely hit the edge of the step.  If she told me she wanted to go back down, I would have walked in front of her or even let her jump on my back for a ride if I had to.  I may have thought about wickedly using her body tonight, but I didn't want her to hurt herself in a stupid drunken accident.

It didn't help that I felt slightly guilty she was so trashed. I had pushed her into it which meant if she got hurt then it would be my fault.

I was relieved when she made it down in one piece without any broken bones or a head injury.

Aiden's eyes narrowed at me when I reached the bottom right behind her.  I was almost positive that he had already noticed that I was following her around the house.  All I would need was for him to open his big mouth and tell JD I was stalking his little sister tonight.  He would throw me out on my ass in a second if he found out.

Riley stumbled into the kitchen and grabbed another full double shot glass off the table. She waved it around in the air and downed it before I could even get completely in the room.   

Someone had pulled out the Jagermeister while we were upstairs. Did they want to get this girl sick tonight?

"Riley...what the hell?" JD was staring at her with his mouth hanging open as he took in her outfit.  JD needed to get his priorities straight.  He should be more upset about how trashed she was than what she was wearing.

"Don't." She snapped out viciously at him.

Anna started laughing so hard at them that she spit her drink out across the room. I cringed when I felt a few little droplets hit the side of my face. I scowled at her; that was fucking disgusting. It was a shame the look was wasted on her because she was too busy wiping the red fluid off her shirt to notice.

Riley's hand started inching closer to another full shot glass on the table. There was no way she could handle any more alcohol in her system. I snuck up behind her and grabbed the glass from in front of her before she could get to it.

Nope, little one. No more drinking tonight. You have had enough.

I smiled at her as I tried to play off the move like I just wanted another drink. In reality, I was pretty far gone and should have called it a night too. I threw back the shot before she could even complain about it. She looked like she was about to smack me across the face, but I didn't care. Riley was done drinking tonight and I would do everything in my power to make sure of it.

In my ten seconds of slowness, she reached across the table and stole another shot glass that Aiden had just poured for himself. She swallowed it down as Aiden watched her, grinning like a moron. 

I was going to punch him in the fucking face if he let her have anymore. This girl was going to end up in the ER if she continued drinking. She didn't know her limits and apparently, neither did anyone else.  I was getting pissed off at everyone in the room for letting her keep going.

"Let's go watch a movie. Kevin Smith, anyone?" Aiden suggested and looked over at Mark, who looked like a little kid being offered a surprise toy.

"Hell yeah." Mark barrelled out of the room, not needing to be told twice. Mark's personality always made me shake my head. That guy was always just a little bit off and constantly way too happy. 

"We're going to bed." Anna fake yawned as JD kissed her head.  I didn't fail to notice he had started moving his hands over her hips as she was bucking her ass back into him. Obviously, sleeping was not on the menu for either one of them.  I was bothered by the fact that he would leave his extremely wasted sister alone with a group of guys when she was vulnerable just to go have sex with a girl he could have anytime he wanted. Again, JD wasn't very bright sometimes. 

"Behave, Lil Bit. Aiden, don't let her drink anything else.  We don't want another incident." JD barked out an order like a drill sergeant. He looked at Riley like he was passing some sort of judgment over her.  

"That was one-time JD. Get off my ass." She huffed.  Little tears were prickling the corner of her glassy eyes.  

"Incident?" I couldn't help but be concerned about her reaction.  Did something happen to her? 

"Not going there." She frowned. From the way her body language changed instantly, I could tell it wasn't a pleasant story.

"Don't worry, boss, I got her.  I'm on duty tonight." Aiden stepped up, puffing out his chest like a good little cadet waiting for a treat. He looked too fucking excited about being her chaperone.

"I can handle myself." She argued back at JD.

"I doubt that." The words tumbled out of my mouth before I knew I had even said them. I had hoped she didn't hear me, but the sour look on her face told me she did and didn't appreciate my little side comment. I was really off tonight; I was usually much smoother than this. 

"Movie's on! Get in here!" Mark called from the living room.  

"Come on, Ry." Aiden walked over to her and spun her around.  Riley almost fell over and he wrapped his arms around her waist.  He pulled her against his body more than necessary which caused her tight shirt to ride up off her stomach.  His hands were touching her bare skin, caressing the spot just under her breasts.

She pulled her shirt back down quickly and punched his arm playfully. These two were playing up the flirty game with one another and it was pissing me the fuck off. The blood was rushing to the surface of my skin as my knuckles tightened. He shouldn't be touching her like that. No one should be touching her that way.

Everyone went out to the living room to sit down and make themselves more comfortable. Aiden plopped down in the middle of the couch like he fucking owned it.  It was a smart move. No one else could sit next to Riley that way and it forced her to choose between the chair and sitting practically on top of him. 

I wanted her to go sit in the chair, far away from  Aiden's overly grabby hands.

It felt like a sucker punch to the gut when Riley automatically bounced excitedly across the room to sit next to Aiden on the couch. She sat down and kicked her sandals off. She tucked herself into a little ball right next to him.

That left me alone with the chair in the corner.  The one that was placed in just the perfect way so I could stare directly at her. I had the best fucking luck.  I hated the fact I couldn't be the one next to her with my arm around her. I wanted to pull Aiden up by his spiked hair and punch him in the face until he moved.  

Riley took something off her wrist and began to move her hair up off her shoulders.  Fuck, she was even more gorgeous than I realized. Her long, thin neck was flawless except for this one little dark freckle near the base. I imagined running my lips over it.  Up and down, back and forth, while I was on top of her, thrusting in and out of her slowly.

Fuck, I needed to get it together.

Riley struggled to grab all of her hair to pull it up.  She had a ton of it. She kept trying, but her hands weren't moving well together. She began making these little frustrated noises as she squirmed around to try to get it all.

Guess what? Aiden came to her rescue yet again. He was so helpful.

He grabbed the tie from her and wrapped her hair in his hands to knot it on the top of her head.  Then, when he was done, he pulled her shirt down to cover her exposed midriff. His hands stayed on her hips, lingering where they didn't belong.  He had his eyes locked on her chest and he took his chance to brush his thumb near the top of the waistband of her tight cotton shorts.

My mouth was open and words began pouring out before my brain could catch up with it.

"Riley, you're wasted. I'll take you back upstairs. You need to go to bed." I began to stand up. I couldn't watch this anymore. He was feeling her up and she had no clue. He was taking advantage of her current state.

My conscience was calling me a hypocrite.  I was going to do the same damn thing to her that Aiden was doing. My demented brain was trying to justify it. It was feeding me lines about it being completely different because it was me and not him.

"I'm perfectly fine." She slurred at me with an attitude.

I could feel the muscles in my jaw tightening.  I was clenching my teeth so hard that I was afraid they would break in my mouth. I leaned back into the chair and grabbed my eyebrow rings to twist them.  I had to keep my hands busy before I lost it and dragged her upstairs, kicking and screaming. She was watching me twirl the metal between my fingers. She had a sassy, triumphant look on her face.

"I got her under control. She'll be fine." Aiden whispered and then leaned into her a little more.

Riley sunk into Aiden and he reached back to pull a blanket over her. He was probably trying to cover her up so he could dip his fingers inside her during the movie.  I would have made the same move.  I would have slid my hands between her thighs and forced her to come for me with everyone in the room still. I had never been shy about where I had sex.

If the blanket even moved one time near her legs, Aiden's face was going to get destroyed tonight. 

She laid her head on his shoulder and her eyes started to grow heavy. She kept looking over in my direction, taunting me.  It was driving me crazy. 

Mark began talking over the movie again. It was an annoying fucking habit. Even though I had seen this movie a thousand times, it still irritated me.  I couldn't concentrate on anything other than the blond Aiden had his hands all over. Aiden was laughing like he didn't have a care in the world.

I bet he didn't. He had her.

Riley's eyes met mine again and I stopped even trying to pretend I wasn't staring. I wanted her to know I was watching every move she made. I pushed my hair back off my head and leaned back in the chair to get more comfortable. I was going to sit in this chair all night to make sure nothing happened to her.
