“No, you’re not.” He grinned, his fingers squeezing my butt cheeks as he moved in and out of me. I tightened my grip around his waist and bit down on his shoulder to stop myself from crying out in ecstasy.
I know you’re wondering what happened at breakfast that would have me fucking Xander again, and in the restaurant restroom, of all places. First off, you have to know that I’m not the sort of girl that stole other girls’ boyfriends. Not in high school, not in college. Not ever. I was never the girl to go after another woman’s man. I just don’t do that, but you have to understand that these were extenuating circumstances. Xander wasn’t really Gabby’s man and well, he just made it too damn hard to say no to. Way too hard.
I didn’t leave the house expecting to have sex with Xander again. That was not part of the plan. Not at all. I was planning on ignoring him, but that all went downhill as soon as we got into the SUV to go to the restaurant two hours ago.

“I’m so happy that everyone came home to hear my good news.” Gabby grinned from the passenger seat of my father’s Lincoln Navigator. “You guys, rock.” She looked at me and then Alice. “I can’t believe that even people that weren’t invited showed up.” She gave Alice another look and then turned back to Aiden who was driving the car.
“Why didn’t you ride with mom, dad, and Chett?” I asked Gabby, annoyed by her already and we’d only been in the car for five minutes.
“Because I wanted to drive with my fiancé and his brother.” She said as she smiled at Xander lovingly. “And I wanted to be in the Lincoln. It seats eight and I wanted the largest amount of people to enjoy my company while we celebrate this weekend.”
“Yay us.” Alice said and looked at me with a grin.
“Grow up.” Gabby rolled her eyes. “You two are college graduates now, you’re both twenty-two. Stop acting like you’re twelve.”
“Don’t talk to Alice like that.” I snapped at Gabby.
“Yeah, give it a break.” Scott spoke up from the backseat. “No one wants to hear you lecturing all day.” He continued.
“Scott.” Aiden stopped at the traffic light and looked into the back. “This is Gabby’s big weekend. Have some respect.”
“Yeah yeah yeah. No one died and made you John Boy Walton, Aiden.” Scott retorted and Alice and I laughed at his comments. Aiden looked at Alice for a second then and her face went red as her laughter died.
“See what you’ve done.” I turned around and looked at Xander, who was sitting in the last row with a smirk on his face. Henry was sitting next to him and looked slightly uncomfortable.
“Liv.” Gabby snapped. “Do not talk to my fiancé that way.”
“Am I lying?”
“That’s why you’re still single and can’t get a man.” Gabby snapped again, her eyes flaring at me. “You do not know how to treat a man.”
“And you do?” My jaw dropped at her rudeness.“I’m the one that’s engaged.” She flashed her ring and I turned away, wanting so desperately to shout that I was the one that had fucked him the previous weekend.
“Girls.” Aiden spoke up again. “That’s enough Gabby.”
“What? Liv is the one–”
“You’re being rude to Liv and to Alice, just stop it.”
The car was silent then. I don’t think any of us could believe that Aiden had spoken like that to Gabby. He never told her off. The only two he seemed to ride were Scott and I, even Chett didn’t get chastised much. I turned around and looked at Xander again, but stopped myself from glaring at him because Henry was there. We were all more than ready to arrive at the restaurant and Alice and I jumped out of the SUV quickly and walked towards the entrance.
“Who knew that Aiden would stick up for me?” She grinned and I tried not to roll my eyes.
“So we still sharing those pancakes?” Henry ran up to join us.
“Sounds like a plan to me.” I nodded and smiled. “Just remember—”
“No bacon, I know.” He completed my sentence for me.
“Hmm, I don’t believe we’ve been formally introduced.” Alice held her hand out. “I’m Alice, Liv’s best friend and number one supporter.”
‘Hi Alice,” He shook her hand. “I’m Xander’s younger brother Henry and general underling.”
“Nice to meet you underling.” Alice grinned.
“Nice to meet you number one supporter.” He grinned back at her.
“Alice, I was hoping to speak to you.” Aiden was suddenly by her side and I saw her looking over at him in glee.
“So just why did you come this weekend?” I asked Henry as we walked into the restaurant to join my parents and Chett. I could hear Gabby and Xander talking behind us.
“Xander asked me to come.” Henry lowered his voice. “To be honest, I’ve never heard of Gabby before this weekend.” He looked behind us for a quick second. “And she’s not the sort of girl I expected him to settle down with. I mean, I never thought he would get married, period.” He laughed.
“Oh? Why’s that?”
“My brother Xander is a playboy. A confirmed bachelor so to speak. He’s always said he never had any intentions to get married or to have kids.”
“Really?” I wanted so badly to turn around and ask Xander why he was marrying Gabby. “So why do you think he’s marrying Gabby?”
