Wanted (Wanted 1) - Page 13

“Jeff, man can I just ask you a question?”

“You know you can Gun…shoot. ”

I ran my hands through my hair again trying to decide how you tell your best friend you are attracted to his baby sister you literally just met hours ago and he was about to leave you alone with her for who knows how many hours?

“Jeff, Umm, I mean I don’t mind at all staying home tonight, I didn’t have any plans but dude. You’ve never let anyone of your friends around your sister, matter of fact you threatened us with bodily harm if we ever laid a finger on her. So, now you’re just going to leave her here with me, alone when you use to make me leave anytime she would come over? I mean I think she is beautiful and, umm, I kind of…um, well I……. . FUCK…. . I don’t really know what I am trying to say here Jeff I’m confused as hell. ” I said as I looked back up towards the house and then back at Jeff who was just standing there smiling.

Jeff let out a laugh that caught me by surprise.

“What the fuck is so funny?” I asked looking at him like he had lost his mind.

“Dude, you got it bad. So fucking bad you can’t even talk straight!” Jeff said as he laughed his ass off and I just stood there in stunned silence.

“You don’t think I didn’t notice the two you staring at each other all afternoon? Or the fact that Ellie was devastated by what that fucker did to her but five minutes after she saw you she was pretty much like, Ryan who?” Jefferson said as he let out another laugh.

“Wait, I’m so fucking confused because Ellie has always been off limits. Dude you told me once you would cut off my balls if I ever so much as looked wrong at her. Are you trying to set me up for something here? I mean, if you want a fight we can just head to the gym and duke it out Jeff. Fuck man don’t play around with me like this. ” I practically begged him. Yeah. …. something was not right here. I don’t fucking beg anyone for anything.

“Listen Gunner, you’re my best friend. You’re like a brother to me. I would lay my life down for you and I know you would do the same for me. If I was ever going to trust anyone with my sister it would be you dude. ” Jeff said has he put his hand on my shoulder.

Just fucking great…. here was my best friend trusting me with his sister and all I was trying to do was calm the erection I got every time I was around her.

“Umm…. Jeff I need to be honest with you. I think I’m attracted to your sister. I mean I would never disrespect you or Ellie in anyway. If you tell me right now to back off and never look at her again, dude I will do it. It would be hard because I’m pretty sure your sister has me tied up in knots and I’m a bit confused by this entire thing but, I would do it for you Jeff. ” I said as I ran my hands through my hair waiting for Jeff’s reaction to my admission of being attracted to his little sister.

“Gunner, Ellie had a pretty fucked up childhood thanks to my mom. She pretty much told her she was useless just like she did me. In Ellie’s mind she will never be good enough for anyone. I only ask that you give her time. If she ends up having feelings for you then just see where it goes. Just keep in mind that she is innocent, very innocent and best friend or not, you hurt her, then I hurt you. ” Jeff said as he gave my shoulder a much harder squeeze.

“Jeff you know I would rather die than disappointment you man. I promise you that. I promise to take care of her whether it turns out we are just friends or it becomes more than that. Always dude. ”

Jeff gave me a hard ass slap on the back and we started for the door.

“Good to know Gun…. . good to know! I’d hate to have to beat the shit out of my best friend. Now, let’s go see how she is settling in shall we?” Jeff said as he turned to head into the house.

My heart started to beat faster and I was not sure if I was more anxious to see Ellie in my house or by the fact that I pretty much just got Jeff’s blessings. Man, this day just keeps more interesting as it goes on. What the hell else could happen?

As we walked into the house Jeff called out for Ellie. She came from down the hallway and had her hair pulled up in a pony tail and had changed into a pair of Jeff’s sweats and a UT tee shirt. I had never seen anyone so goddamn sexy in my life. I had to walk to the kitchen to adjust the damn hard on I was getting…again! I think my dick has gotten hard more just this afternoon then it has all fucking year.

“Hey honey, how are you feeling?” Jefferson asked as he walked up to Ellie.

“I guess I am okay. I think the meds are kicking in ‘cause I am really tired. ” Ellie said with a yawn.

“Let me go put this in my room and grab a few things out of my room. I really hope you don’t mind Ellie but I had plans for tonight and I’ve blown this girl off three times already. I can’t back out again. Gunner offered to stay home and help out if you need anything. ” Jeff said has he walked back to his bedroom.

“Oh, umm, yeah that is totally fine Jefferson. I don’t need to be babysat though. ” Ellie said as she watched Jeff go to his room and grab a change of clothes and head to the shower. I heard Jeff tell Ellie he knew she didn’t need a baby sitter then he hollered down the hall he was taking a quick shower.

I was still in the kitchen so I grabbed a beer out of the fridge. “Gunner listen, please don’t stay home on my account. I’m really fine. I think I just need to eat something and lie down and rest for a while. I’m sure I will fall asleep really fast. ” Ellie said as she looked everywhere except at me. She really was innocent and damn she was beautiful.

“Don’t be ridiculous Ellie; I have no plans for this evening. I was planning on just chilling and watching a movie or two. Are you hungry? We haven’t been to the store but I can run and get you something. You probably should eat since you are taking the pain medicine sweetheart. ”

She looked at me for the first time since she came out of the bedroom and her face instantly went red. My breath caught in my throat. Her eyes just held mine for what seemed like forever before she finally talked.

“I am kind of hungry. Oh gosh though, I hate to even ask you I’m so embarrassed. Um, I’m sure Jefferson has time to run and get me something. ” She said as she was about to turn and go ask him through the bathroom door.

“NO! Really I’ll go get it. I’m hungry myself and I haven’t eaten since breakfast. Let me go run and grab it and I’ll be back in no time. Just let Jeff know I ran out to get us something to eat. ” I yelled as I raced out the door.

I knew exactly what I would get her. I remember Jeff saying one time if she had her pick of anywhere to eat this would be the place. As I jumped in my truck and fired it up I could not help but smile. There was just something about that girl……. .
