your lies made me happy.

Nick sat up and looked back at her, "Hey Kaycee." He said waking her up. He knew he didn't want Ryan to find her in his bed. He knew that she liked to cheat on Ryan for fun with him, but something like this might send his brother to the edge.

---

Gabby sighed as she got out of the car and frowned when she seen they were in the middle of nowhere. "Wonderful. Em I swear this better be worth it." She said as she stood there with her arms crossed. She hated being outside, but Emily asked her to go along and Clay was going to it made it worth it.

Jake smiled and shook his head at Gabby, "Emily you sure she's gonna make it." He teased. He helped set up the tents then sighed as he looked between them all. "So who's sleeping where?" He asked. He raised an eyebrow when Gabby said she was going to sleep in a tent with Clay so Emily could be alone with Jake. He could feel Clay glare at him.

@ momentai.

Kaycee pouted when she heard Nick and she blinked her eyes open. Her pout deepening, she rubbed at her eyes tiredly in hopes of waking herself up. "Why'd you have to wake me?" she asked tiredly before she yawned and buried her face against the pillow. "It's mean, Nick. Bad Nick."

---

Clay couldn't help but to frown at Gabby's idea and he turned a narrowed gaze onto Jake. "That's not happening," he said immediately. As much as he would prefer to share a tent with Gabby, he didn't want Jake taking advantage of the situation, not when he could prevent it.

Emily wasn't sure what to say about all of it and tried to focus on helping Jake set up the tents. "Um... So, guys, did anybody bring the snacks we'll be needing later?" she asked in hopes of changing the subject.

Nick sighed, "Look i just don't think Ryan would want to find you in here." He said as he bit his bottom lip lightly. "I'm sorry i'm just worried that you will get into an argument with him again." He sighed as he leaned back against the headboard of his bed.

---

Gabby frowned, "Ugh fine you two can sleep together." She said, looking between Jake and Clay. "Perfect for bonding." She said, looking at Clay. She grabbed her bag, "Come on Em let's get our stuff put in the stupid tent." She muttered. Part of her was sad she wouldn't be snuggling with Clay, but she understood he wanted to protect Emily. She looked at Emily when she got in the tent, "Sorry Em i tried." She teased her.

---

Jake sighed, "Yea i got them." He said, not breaking eye contact with Clay. He put his stuff in the tent, frowning as Clay looked at him. "You really hate me that much." He muttered before getting out of the tent. He smiled at Emily once he was done and walked over to her. "Alright you start the fire since it was your idea." He teased her. He wasn't going to make her do that, but it was fun to tease her.

@ momentai.

"There's going to be an argument either way once he finds out I asked you to help me," Kaycee pointed out quietly, though she shifted to eye him for a moment. "You don't have to worry about me, Nick. I can handle his tantrums. Besides, he's probably busy partying his ass off right now anyways."

---

"It's not about hating you. I don't hate you. I just don't trust you with my sister. Or any guy, for that matter," Clay said with a snort. He didn't say anything else, though, and instead glanced to Gabby. He knew she was upset with his decision, but he made a mental note to make up for it later.

---

"You know how Clay is. He'll sleep with every girl out there but won't let any guy near me," Emily told her friend with a sigh, "Thanks for trying, though." She turned her attention to Jake, though, when he came over and arched a brow. "Well, we need firewood first," she pointed out to him.

Nick nodded, "I know, but i don't want you to have to deal with his tantrums. It's not fair." He said as he ran his fingers through her hair. He stared at her for a moment before he kissed her softly. He couldn't help himself.

---

Gabby frowned at what Emily said and sat down in the tent for a moment. It upset her when Emily said things like that about Clay. She got out of the tent while Emily and Jake went to look for firewood. Gabby sighed and looked over at Clay. She sat down in one of the chairs they brought. She looked at Clay when he came over, "Are you sleeping with other people?" She asked him. She couldn't help but think Emily saw stuff she didn't.

---

Jake smiled as he walked off with Emily, "Your brother is going to kill me." He said, laughing. Jake started to pick up some wood and looked over at her as he took what she had in her hands.

@ momentai.

Kaycee was about to reply to his words, so close to telling him that she was used to it at this point. The words never passed through her lips, though, because she felt Nick's lips against hers. And, though she knew she should pull away because she had never been the one to cheat first - it had always been Ryan and she just revenge cheated, - she couldn't bring herself to pull away. Instead, she leaned into the kiss, returning it as her eyes closed over.

---

Clay watched Emily and Jake leave, though he hoped Jake wouldn't try anything with Clay not being around. Seeing Gabby come out of the tent, he noticed that she looked a little upset and he couldn't help but to worry about her. Making his way over, he was about to ask if something was wrong, but he was instead greeted with a question from her. "What?" he asked with a frown, "Of course not. Why would you ask that? Do you think I am?"

---

Emily smiled when he took the wood she had collected, though she focused on picking up more firewood that they could use. "I won't let him kill you," she promised as she leaned up to kiss his cheek. "Promise. He's just... A little overprotective." She didn't entirely understand it, but she didn't want to think about it too much either.

Nick kissed her and placed his hands on her cheeks as he deepened the kiss. He pulled her close as he began to kiss down her neck. He couldn't help himself any longer. He felt like he had held back so much lately and he wanted her.

---

Gabby looked at him, "I just...Em acts like she sees you with all these girls." She said, pouting. She looked back at him again. "I'm being stupid. I'm sorry." She said as she stood up. She wrapped her arms around him then kissed him again. She took his hands, "I'm sorry. I just let what she said bother me." She explained.

---

Jake nodded, "I know, but he's gotta let you free some time." He said. Jake frowned as he walked back to the camp, seeing Clay, hugging Gabby. He stopped then looked at Emily, "Hey let's go back and get some more." He said, not wanting her to see them. He knew they hadn't told her. He looked back when she saw them and Clay was kissing Gabby. "Damn." He muttered, knowing it was too late.

@ momentai.

Kaycee moaned quietly at the feeling, though she chewed on her lip in hopes of avoiding making too much noise. Her fingers traveled down his shirt before she slipped them under and ran her fingers along his chest. Before long, she pulled off his shirt. It was likely the first time she had initiated undressing, but she couldn't help it; the knowledge that she was doing this because she wanted to instead of for revenge made it more exciting.

---

"She's just worried about you," Clay told her quietly as he rubbed her back once she was in his arms. "You thinking these things doesn't make you stupid, Gabby. I can't blame you for being suspicious," he assured her as he gave her a gentle but tight squeeze in hopes of comforting her. "I'm doing my best not to hurt you, though," he whispered before he pressed his lips to hers. It was then, though, that he heard a noise and he pulled away to look to it.

Emily stared at the pair, wide eyed. It was clear she was upset and the look of betrayal on her features left Clay feeling bad. Emily couldn't believe what she was seeing and what upset her the most was that they hadn't told her.

Nick threw his shirt to the floor and then kissed her roughly. He slid his hands down to her pants and began to pull them down. He looked at her, making sure she was okay with it.

---

Gabby look at Emily, "Em." She said as she walked towards her friend. " we can explain." She said, seeing the anger in her friends face. She frowned when Emily said nothing. "Emily." She said, hoping her friend wouldnt tell her that she didnt want to be her friend anymore

@ momentai.

Kaycee was quick to wiggle out of her pants to help him get them off quicker. The moment her pants were off, she went ahead to pull off her own shirt and tossed it aside before she pressed her lips to his in a much more passionate kiss than usual.

---

Emily wasn't sure whether she felt angry or upset or just wholly betrayed. All of the emotions seemed to be swirling in her and she took a step back when Gabby approached. "Don't," she said quietly as she stared at her and there was a crack in her voice. "You lied to me and you didn't tell me. I think that explains enough, Gabby."

Nick moaned as he moved his hips against hers. He kissed her then gripped her hips tightly as he pulled her closer. He kissed down her body smirking against her skin.

---

Gabby frowned, "Em im sorry. We knew you would be mad either way." She said, looking back at Clay for help. Gabby crossed her arms feelinh upset. She had ruined her friends trust.

@ momentai.

Kaycee shuddered at the feeling and she watched him as she chewed on her lip. "Nick," she whined a little needily.

---

"It doesn't matter, you should have told me," Emily said with a frown. "Why? So you could continue telling Gabby that I'm bad for her?" Clay asked.

Nick smirked and pulled her panties off and ran his fingers over her before he pushed them inside of her. He bit his bottom lip lightly as she moaned and moved with her movements. He kissed her roughly as he moved his fingers faster.

---

Gabby frowned, "Every time i talked about him you instantly said he was a whore." She said. She looked at her, knowing her friend was upset. "I'm sorry we didn't tell you, but i'm not going to apologize for being with Clay." She said.

@ momentai.

Kaycee moaned against his lips as she tried to focus on returning his kiss. It was difficult, though, when she was also focused on moving with his fingers. Her moans came out quicker when he started moving his fingers faster, but her body continued to move with them and she closed her eyes.

---

"You know how he is, Gabby! Why would you put yourself in a position to get hurt?" Emily reminded with a frown before she looked to her brother. "And, you! Why did you have to get involved with my best friend? You knew the problems it was going to cause and you know you're just going to hurt her, it's selfish." Clay only sighed.

Nick smirked as he pulled away and pulled his jeans down. He put a condom on then pushed into her, kissing her to keep her quiet. He moaned as he began to move his hips against her faster. He kissed along her neck as he gripped her hips.

---

Gabby frowned, "Look you'll just have to get over it because it's happening! Plus you need to lay off of Clay because he has been nothing but good to me! You complain because he kept a secret from you, but you keep putting him down. So quit being a diva and knock it the fuck off!" She yelled at her friend. Gabby could get feisty when she was mad and it never ended well. She didn't think her and Emily had ever been in a fight.

@ momentai.

Kaycee moaned out against his lips, her arms wrapping around him. Her nails dug into his skin as she allowed herself to move with him and she occasionally arched towards him, surprised with how much she craved all of this with him.

---

Emily blinked but frowned as she stared at her friend. "I keep putting him down because of how many girls he's already hurt!" she snapped, "And I didn't want you added to the list - but me wanting to protect my best friend clearly doesn't matter!"

Clay frowned as he watched the pair, but he honestly wasn't sure what to do. Eventually, he sighed. "Look, let's just... Calm down," he suggested. He hadn't wanted to come between their friendship.

Nick groaned as he thrust into her faster, "Fuck me." He growled as he ran his fingers through her hair. He bit her shoulder as he moved with her. Nick kissed her roughly as he felt himself getting closer

---

Gabby narrowed her eyes, "Maybe you shouldn't worry so much about me and worry more about yourself! If you didn't but in all the time you would be able to get laid and not act like you have a fucking stick up your ass all the time!" She snapped. She frowned when Clay spoke and she glared at him.

---

Jake finished starting the fire, trying his best to stay out of something that was none of his business. He turned around, watching the two girls argue. He had never seen them mad at each other so it worried him.

@ momentai.

Kaycee chewed harshly on her lip in an attempt to avoid making too much noise. She was glad for his lips against hers again and she kissed him back just as roughly, though it wasn't long before her orgasm hit and the pleasure coursed through her.

---

Emily froze as she stared at her friend and she looked pained by her words. "Fine," she said after a moment, "You won't have to worry about me butting in anymore. You can have what you want, like you always do. Whatever, I don't care anymore." With a frown, she looked to Jake. "Can you take me home?"

---

Clay stared at the pair with confusion. From Emily's words, it was clear that she had given up and it made him worry that it meant she had given up on her friendship with Gabby as well. It worried him, since their friendship meant so much to Emily.

Nick moaned as he hit his climax. He kissed her softly as he pulled away from her. Nick smiled as he started to put his clothes back on. He laid back down and began to kiss all over her.

---

Gabby frowned when Emily wanted to go home, "No you stay and spend time with Jake. No need to punish him." She said. She walked away and got her things, "Clay take me home now!" She yelled at him. Gabby got in the car, slamming the door as she waited for him.

---

Jake stood there, looking at Clay before he handed him the keys to his car. "Um...just bring it back." He said, shrugging. "No rush." He told him. He looked over at Emily, not sure what to say to her.

@ momentai.

Kaycee felt herself coming down from her climax and she smiled as she enjoyed the kisses he gave her. Shifting, she cupped his face and pressed her lips to his gently, though she eventually forced herself to pull away to get dressed. Once she was dressed, though, she returned to give him another kiss. It was new, because she wasn't usually affectionate after having sex with him, not when she usually just had sex with him as revenge against Ryan.

---

Emily watched Gabby go with a frown, though she rolled her eyes slightly. She was certain that the only reason that Gabby was ordering Clay to take her home was because Gabby hadn't wanted to be there in the first place. She told Emily not to punish Jake, yet Gabby was punishing Clay when this had been Clay's idea in the first place.

---

Clay sighed as he took the key, though he didn't like the idea of leaving Jake alone with his sister. Regardless, he nodded slightly and frowned. "No funny stuff, Jake. I mean it," he warned quietly before he parted away from the guy and walked to the car. Climbing in, he buckled up and started the car before he drove, though the ride was silent because he wasn't sure what to say to Gabby. This wasn't what he wanted; he didn't want to ruin Gabby's and his sister's friendship because he and Gabby wanted to be together.
