They were down for brunch now and Evelina's cheeks were still a faint pink from Noah's offhand compliment back in the bathroom. Did he genuinely think she looked pretty without makeup? Or was he just saying that because he knew it would make her happy? Evie wasn't exactly sure, but she'd take the compliment regardless. It made her feel good inside.

His words bounced around in her mind throughout the meal, though she stayed relatively quiet despite the constant chatter around her. She was still tired from being woken up so early and she knew that if Noah was going to constantly wake her up at that time that she would have to get to bed earlier each night. If she didn't and became sleep deprived instead, she would turn into an actual monster, she was sure of it. By the time the meal came to an end and they were out on the beach for the volleyball competition, Evie was feeling a tad more awake. She'd had a couple cups of coffee with her food and was feeling the effects of it finally. Once everyone had gathered down on the sand, Madeleine and her fiancé made their way to the front of the group. Evelina watched, putting her dark hair up into a high ponytail as it was decided Madi and Joshua would play against each other but choose who would be on their teams.

Of course, it wasn't exactly a surprise when Madeleine called Noah onto her team. Evie wasn't blind; she'd noticed the way her sibling had been eyeing the man since he'd arrived at the beach house. But to her surprise, Joshua called her up next, onto his team. She rose a brow, briefly glancing at her fake boyfriend, before stepping forward to join Josh's side. She'd changed into a proper beach outfit after brunch, but decided to re-tie her shirt while she waited for the teams to assemble.

Sure enough, it didn't take long and before Evie knew it, they were on their respective sides of the net and starting the game. But as Joshua taunted Noah, the girl found herself frowning and stepping over to elbow Joshua in the side. "Shut up and serve already, dumbass," she smirked at him, hoping to egg him on.

What she wouldn't even admit to herself, though, was that hearing Joshua tease Noah like that sparked something inside of her. She wasn't sure what, but it didn't sit well and she wanted to put an end to it before it was taken too far.

hank god for Evelina.

Snapping himself out of the pain he planned on inflicting Joshua with, the words leaving Evelina's mouth made Noah take a step back his eyes still not leaving Joshua's. "Just a little fun, Evelina." Noah felt his aggravation rise in his chest as he listened to the other male say Evelina's full name. Was that a step too far? No, fuck it. Within seconds Joshua had gotten into position, left hand tossing the ball up into the air while his right palm spread evenly onto the side flinging the ball over the net.

Noah didn't wait, this was now a Josh vs. Noah game in his own mind. He moved quickly in the sand, his tattooed arm coming up palm now spiking the ball back to Joshua. He watched as the ball dove into the sand, his feet now planted in the warm sand. "
Oh my god Noah!" Brown eyes flicking over to Madeline who was now clapping in excitement he grinned. Yeah, he was pretty good at volleyball.

The game continued, both Noah and Joshua trying to now throw the ball at each other. Needless to say, Noah was out of fucking breathe. He needed a beer. A tall one. Maybe a whole pitcher. Feeling a hand now pressed against his sweaty chest, Noah frowned looking down at Madeline who was smiling widely up at him. "
Why don't you take a break? I can serve." The girl spoke sweetly, making Noah's frown deepen at every word. He took a step back so her hand would fall off his chest before looking over at Evelina. It wouldn't hurt to take a two minute break. Turning completely, the boy managed to get two steps in before he heard the whack.

"
Oh my god! Evie! I am so sorry!"

Madeline had hit Evelina with the ball, head on. Noah hadn't hesitated as he rushed to Evelina's side, pushing Madeline to the ground in the crossfire. "
Evelina!" He spoke clearly, his hands now on either side of the brunette's head.


"Bad boy, Good lips."

Evelina was admittedly surprised by just how good Noah was at volleyball. He played like he was a professional and it definitely impressed her, but she didn't fail to notice how he seemed to always spike the ball towards Joshua extra hard compared to everyone else. Well, apparently those two hadn't exactly gotten off on the right foot. But it was whatever, so long as nothing actually came of it.

Evie's carefree attitude came to an abrupt halt when Madeleine ventured over to her fake boyfriend, however, and placed a hand on his chest. The action had the brunette frowning deeply, her bottom lip sliding between her teeth. Why the hell was Madi acting like this? She had a fiancé for fuck's sake. What was going through that girl's mind that caused her to feel the need to hit on Noah, too?

The younger sister was a moment too late in dragging her gaze away, though, for just as she was about to, Noah lifted his head and met her eyes. Her cheeks flushed a bit as she realized he'd likely caught her watching, but she flashed him a smile nonetheless, knowing her family and the other guests were likely watching. They had a show to put on and she couldn't let herself forget that. If she did, their cover would be blown. No sooner had that thought crossed her mind did Evie suddenly feel the ball smack her right in the face with a muffled 'oof' on her end. The girl stumbled backwards before landing on the her bum in the sand with a yelp, her hand automatically flying up to her aching nose. Madi's voice rang loudly in her ears, but her sister's apology barely processed in her frazzled brain. Had Madeleine seriously just hit her in the face with the ball?

Just then, two warm hands met her cheeks and Evie lifted her head a little to see Noah crouched in front of her. She blinked a few times to clear the stars from her vision, then shot him a little smile. "Hi," she mumbled, about to giggle softly when she felt something warm and liquid trickling towards her top lip. Brows furrowed, the brunette lifted her hand back to her face and lightly touched beneath her nose, only to pull her fingers away and find blood on the pads. "Ugh, seriously? You just had to make my nose bleed, did you, Madi?" Evie bit out, a deep frown on her face as her eyes flickered towards her sister, who had ventured closer with the rest of her family. They were all concerned, but she couldn't care less. She was fine. It was just a bit of blood and a sore nose.

Nothing to freak out over, right?

H
eart attack.

Noah felt like he was having a heart attack. The brunette stare down at the girl, hands not moving from her cheeks. What the fuck was wrong with Madeline? That was on purpose, the ball wasn't accidentally aimed at Evie's face. He watched as Evelina's lips turned up in a smile before she breathed out a shaky 'hi'. Noah let out a soft laugh, shaking his head slightly as he kneeled down into the warm sand. "Hi." He smiled lightly his thumbs brushing her cheeks softly. He had heard the ball come into contact with her face, there was no way it didn't hurt like a bitch. His lips parted to speak before they pressed together in a firm line, watching the blood now trickle from Evelina's nose.

"
Evie, I am so sorry! My hand slipped!" Noah didn't turn at the voice of Madeline who was now being him. He was going to lose it if he looked at the older woman. "Come on, we have to get some ice and possibly a tampon to stop the bleeding." He attempted to make light of the situation, slowly pulling Evelina to her feet. In one motion Noah had the brunette up and off of the sand, carrying her bridal style. Yes, he knew that she was going to resist but getting hit in the head was not something he wanted to mess around with. She could end up passing out or something. Joshua was now standing next to Madeline, his hands on either of the woman's shoulder. "Eveli--" "Don't." Noah kept his voice low, his eyes staring harshly at Joshua for a moment before he moved quickly past them. "If I had known you liked getting hit in the face with balls, I would have tried that to begin with." Noah looked down at the girl in his arms, a grin overcoming his face as he made his way into the beach home.

"
Mr. Decker, Madam Evelina! Are you alright?"

Noah walked past the butler, making his way to the stairwell before he turned slightly to face the man. "
Please bring some ice and a first aid kit up to our room." Noah instructed his feet now turning to go up the large stairwell. Once he had made it to their room, he pressed his back into the door his elbow coming down to jiggle the handle until the door opened. Carefully he set the girl down on the bed, propping up pillows behind her head. "Here you are Mr.Decker...if you need anything else plea--" Noah shut the door, turning the lock on the door before making his way back to the bed. He was too pissed to talk to anyone besides Evelina. Noah's eyes softened as he poured some of the ice into the clean rag, his face now turning towards Evelina. "Tilt your head back and pinch your nose you goon. If not the bleeding won't stop." Noah let the corners of his mouth tug up slightly, his body now coming to rest on the edge of the bed next to the girl.

Although Evelina didn't want to admit it, a volleyball to the face really did hurt like a bitch. She was pretty certain her nose wasn't broken, of course, but that didn't mean it hurt any less. Madeleine apparently had quite the strength when it came to serving. Her second apology had the younger sister scowling in irritation, not completely convinced that Madi had done this accidentally. Of course, she'd need quite the aim to actually hit her right in the face like this, but it wouldn't be the first time that the two had gotten into major disagreements that involved physically harming the other.

Thankfully, before Evie could snap another response at her sister, Noah was speaking, his words causing the brunette to roll her eyes a little, though an amused smirk tugged at her lips. He helped her to her feet and, just as she made to start walking back to the house, he suddenly swept her into his arms. "Noah!" She gasped softly in surprise, her hands automatically going around his neck to hold onto him tightly. Swallowing thickly, she ignored the others who had gathered, her lips parting to insist that she was alright and could walk just fine. Noah didn't need to carry her like this. But maybe he was doing it for show, considering they did have an image to uphold around these people.

What the man said next, however, had Evie cracking up despite the blood leaking from her nose. She'd lifted a hand to help catch the red liquid before it could stain either her shirt or his bare chest, but her smirk was still visible behind her fingers. "You sure you're not the one who just got hit in the head?" She teased lightly in response, eyes meeting his as he carried her inside. "But god, please don't ever put that sick image in my head again," the young woman added with a giggle.

Moments later, the two of them were back in their bedroom, the butler having dropped off what Noah had requested on their way up. But as Evelina lay on the bed with a few pillows propped up behind her head, she couldn't help wanting to refuse Noah's care. She wasn't hurt that badly. The blood just needed a tiny bit of cleaning up, that was all. Yet she followed her fake boyfriend's instructions regardless, a tiny sigh escaping her lips as she tilted her head back and pinched the bridge of her nose, wincing a little at the pain that resulted.

"I'm fine, Noah. Seriously, it didn't hurt that bad. My nose isn't broken or anything. It's just a tiny bit of blood," Evie mumbled, dark eyes flickering towards him as he sunk onto the bed next to her. "Besides, Madi's done worse to me before anyways. We've always been rough on each other." Biting her lip, she looked away from him and let her gaze land on the windows across from where they were sitting, the view of the ocean calming her like it always did.

Evelina was stubborn.

One of the most stubborn women he had ever met and the thought of that intrigued him. Noah frowned as the brunette waved him off, his eyes rolling as he pressed the ice now to the side of her nose. "You're absolutely right, it's not broken." He spoke softly, wiping the blood from her nose before he leaned to his right keeping his foot from falling asleep as he leaned on it. "That doesn't mean you should just let it go." Noah's eyebrows furrowed together at the mention of how this is how Madeline and herself always were with each other. "Well that's pretty fucked up."

Letting his gaze wander to the window where she was staring out, he sighed slightly. He didn't like this side of her, she was quiet. Not her normal self. Noah removed the ice from the girl's nose, laying it on the night stand on the side of the bed before he stood stretching his legs out slightly before getting into a more comfortable position on the side of the bed.

"Do you want me to go down and tell your parents you are in for the rest of the day?" He reached over, his thumb and index finger now gently tugging at the girls chin before her gaze was on him instead of the windows. "I don't need your sister finishing what she started. It'd be a damn shame if you had to get a nose job." His lips tugged up into a grin as he let his fingers drop from the girls chin. He had already made up his mind when it came to Madeline. He planned on confronting her the next time they had a moment alone.

As the bag of ice was lightly pressed against her nose, Evelina couldn't help wincing a tiny bit, the cold combined with her sore nose not exactly a comfortable feeling. She didn't move away, however, and instead let Noah clean up the blood before returning the ice to her swollen nose. She shrugged a little as he mentioned how fucked up it was that she and Madeleine often fought like this. "We've grown up doing this, so it's whatever," she mumbled quietly, a soft sigh escaping her lips as she spoke. She was used to the way she and Madi sorted out their differences.

The girl's gaze lingered on the window until she suddenly felt Noah's fingers on her chin, turning her head until her eyes found his. A frown tugged at her features at his words and she parted her lips, about to argue that she was fine to rejoin their volleyball game. But, of course, it wouldn't be Noah if he didn't make a ridiculous comment before she could say anything. The softest of laughs left Evie's mouth at that, her lips quirking upwards in a bemused smirk. "You don't think I'd look good with a nose job?" The brunette teased, amusement shining in her dark hazel eyes. But she soon turned serious again, not wanting to be forced to stay in and take it easy the rest of the day. "But honestly, I'm fine to go back down and play, I think. I don't feel dizzy or anything," Evie stated finally, biting her bottom lip as she eyed Noah.

Admittedly, the skin where the boy had placed his fingers on her chin still tingled, even after his hand dropped back to his lap. Evelina tried not to think about that, especially when there were more important things to be focusing on, but the thought was hard to ignore. Besides, now that things had calmed down again, the girl realized that Noah was still shirtless, his sculpted chest mere inches away for her to see. Even if the two of them argued constantly (well, more like he got under her skin and she got mad at him for it), Evie couldn't deny how attractive Noah was.

That thought alone was dangerous, though, and the brunette knew it.

His fingers felt as if they had just touched a hot stove, the tips tingling as he moved his digits off of the girls chin. Thankfully his thoughts drifted to how he was planning on confronting Madeline the next time he saw her. There was no need to be flinging balls at someones head. Sure, he had served his ball purposely at Joshua but at least he could admit to it. Madeline was a privileged little girl who will never grown out of the shoes her daddy put her in when she was little. It was just that simple.

The sound of Evelina made Noah's eyes flicker back over to her own brown ones. She wanted to go back out there and keep playing? Was she out of her fucking mind? One more ball to the face and she would definitely need a nose job. He frowned his eyebrows coming together as he turned his body so he was fully facing the girl. "Are you out of your mind? You just got hit in the face and you want to try that again?" He groaned, shaking his head at the stubborn girl. There was no way she was going to sit around and do nothing all day, that he was sure of. He bit down on his lower lip, weighing his options before looking back at Evelina. "We can go back, but you are sitting the rest of the game out." He spoke, placing the bag of ice on her nose once more. "And you have to keep the ice on it."

Ten minutes, they couldn't even get ten god damn minutes.

"Evie! Are you alright?!"

Noah's head snapped towards the door at the shrill voice of Madeline. "Why is the door locked?" Noah rose from the bed, padding over to the door before quickly unlocking it and swinging it open. Everything felt as if it was moving in slow motion. Noah's hands were now gripping either of Madeline's arms as his back lay flat on the floor, the older sister now on top of him face buried in between his chest. What the fuck just happened. Madeline must have went for the door at the same time he opened it, causing the collision. Madeline huffed, her face now crimson as she let her hands find the tall man's shoulders.

"Oh! Noah." The girl purred, her face lifting slightly as she grinned at the boy. "I'm happy to see you too." Noah blinked, his elbows locking upright as he pushed the girl as far away from his body as possible. The bitch was crazy if she thought he'd be happy to see her in the way she described. His cell phone was in his pocket and that was the only hard thing on him.

Evelina knew Noah wouldn’t approve of her wanting to return to the game, but the competitive side in her didn’t want to sit out. Still, she knew the man beside her had a point. It wasn’t exactly the most brilliant idea to go play when she’d just gotten whacked in the face with a ball. With a resigned sigh, she grumbled something along the lines of an “okay” as Noah suggested she sit on the sidelines instead of playing. At least that way she could still watch the game, right?

Only seconds after that thought passed through her mind, Madeleine’s voice rang out through the thick wood of the bedroom door. A loud groan escaped Evie’s lips as she watched Noah get up to open the door, not in the mood to see her sister after what she’d done to her. What happened next, however, took the brunette by complete surprise. One second the door was closed and the next, it was flung open with both Noah and Madi on the floor, the older woman splayed across her fake boyfriend’s chest.

“Madeline Jamieson!” Evelina cried out as she overheard her sister’s comments. She scrambled from the bed, eyes wide and lips parted in shock despite the ice still being held to her nose. “What the fuck are you doing?” She questioned irritably, glancing between her and Noah. Biting down on her bottom lip, the younger sister side stepped over to the man and extended her small hand towards him to help him to his feet.

”I was coming to see how you were feeling,” Madi exclaimed as she got to her own feet. Her answer had Evelina narrowing her eyes in annoyance, her hand releasing Noah’s once he was upright again. “Well, I’m fine. Besides, it looks more like you’re just desperate for attention, so why don’t you go bother Josh for some instead of hitting on my boyfriend?” The younger woman snapped, clearly annoyed by Madi’s antics. It was obvious her sibling was just being a bitch rather than actually caring about how Evie felt and the girl was in no mood to deal with that right now.

It had all happened so fast.

One moment he was being pulled to his feet by Evelina and the next he was back on his back. His eyes closed quickly, hands coming up to deflect the attacks coming from above. What the fuck was going on? Noah remembered Madeline 'falling' on him by accident, to Evelina screaming and helping him up, and then shouting from a very pissed off Joshua. Oh, right so that was what happened.

-----rewind two minutes------​

Noah frowned as he got back to his feet, his hand gripping Evelina's as she helped him up. The girls hand was gone within seconds, her anger now focused back on the older sister. "Noah? What the fuck?!" The voice came quick and Noah had barely enough time to turn his head in the other mans direction before he was wrestled to the ground.

-----present------
If Joshua hadn't charged at him when he was fully to his feet then Noah wouldn't have lost his balance and tumbled to the floor so easily. Noah had to give it to Joshua, he was strong...but Noah was always getting into fights. He knew that you never put all your energy into your first swings. "Fucking amateur." Noah spat his teeth gritting together now as he lowered his hands from his face, his body now pushing up until Joshua's back was now on the ground. By the way Joshua's muscles gave in so easy Noah knew that the man was tired. With his weight, Noah pinned the other to the ground, pushing his body onto him so he couldn't move. "Are you done?" He grumbled, annoyed by the whole situation. Sure, he knew that he could beat the living shit out of the other male but then he would for sure be kicked out of the gig.

Joshua stayed silent, his face flushed in embarrassment as he let his body relax so it wasn't fighting Noah's any longer. There was no way he'd win a fight against Noah, it was naive to even think it. "I'm done." Joshua muttered, his eyes shifting to the side instead up into Noah's own dark ones. Noah sighed, slowly pressing himself up and off of the man. He extended his hand, helping the other up off of his feet. The last thing he needed was a full-out war. Noah ran a hand through his hair, his gaze now moving to Evelina's direction his lips tugging up slightly to reassure her. Noah turned his head back to Joshua, though this time his right eye came into contact with the other's fist sending Noah back onto the floor with a loud thud.

mood: furious, in pain

Evelina was pretty sure she had never felt so angry in her entire life. It was bad enough that Madeleine had gone and "accidentally" fallen on top of Noah, but for Joshua to come bursting in and actually hit the poor man? He had most definitely crossed a line and he was going to pay for it. Yet everything began to happen so quickly that Evie barely had time to react before Noah had the fight under control.

One moment Josh was pinning the brunette to the ground before the roles reversed and then the next moment, the two were standing again, this time in an agreement that they were done. It all happened so quickly that Evelina felt like she'd just experienced whiplash. The young woman huffed loudly in irritation, just about to drop her bag of ice onto the bed and sit beside it when out of nowhere, Joshua let his fist fly right into Noah's eye. A startled gasp escaped the woman's lips, eyes widening in shock. "Joshua, what the fuck?!"

Before Evie could think twice about what she was about to do, she was leaping towards her sister's fiancé and slapping him clean across the cheek. "You fucking bastard," she growled angrily, shoving him backwards until his back hit the dresser propped up beside the wall. "You're being an immature little bitch right now, Josh. Get the hell out of my room and take Madeleine with you. I'm done with both of your shit right now," she snapped, eyes narrowed in fury as her hands gripped his arms tightly. Then, with another shove, she let him go and spun around to approach Noah.

Without a word, the young woman helped him to his feet, a scowl on her features all the while. Holding his hand in hers, she led him into their bathroom, slamming the door behind them and locking it as she did so. For a second or two, she simply stared at the wood, trying to calm herself down. Then she slowly turned to face her fake boyfriend, raising a brow as a small, halfhearted smile tugged at one corner of her mouth.

"We're gonna look like we beat each other up now."

Noah wasn't sure if he was delirious or emotional. Maybe a mix of both at this point. Maybe.

He pressed his fingers gingerly to his now swollen right eye, frowning at the sensitive skin underneath. Well, that was going to be black and blue by nightfall. He lifted his head to watch Evelina slap Joshua, his jaw slacking at the scene in front of him. She literally just bitch slapped him. It was official, Noah was going to marry this girl. Wait, what?

A smirk tugged at his lips as Evelina lost it on the two of them, his head shaking slightly. She may have been small but she was not one to be fucked with. He blinked, eyes now focusing on her as she helped him up for the second time today. He gripped her hand, his fingers interlocking with hers as she tugged him into the bathroom and out of sight of the two dipshits. Door slammed shut and locked, Noah's eyebrow raised curiously as he watched the brunette now stare at the wood against the wall.


At her comment his lips pulled up before he let out a laugh, shaking his head. "That is completely fine with me. Can you imagine how many chicks I could get in this shower if I said my girlfriend beat the shit out of me?" He teased, pushing her shoulder lightly before turning to look at himself in the mirror. Thankfully the hook to the eye wasn't as bad as he thought it was going to be. Joshua had hit him but not as hard as he probably wanted to. Noah pressed against the swollen area once more before shrugging his shoulders, his head now snapping back to the brunette with a toothy grin. "I've had worse."

The young woman hadn't looked to see if Joshua and Madeleine had left the room as she disappeared into the bathroom. Admittedly, she didn't care right now. The door behind her was locked, meaning she and Noah were guaranteed some quiet privacy without irritating siblings and fiancés ruining that and giving them both headaches in the process. Well, worse headaches than they already had, thanks to the ball to the face and fist to the eye they'd already suffered.

Of course, trust Noah to make light of the situation. Evelina rolled her eyes at his comment, but couldn't quite conceal the amused smirk that had replaced her smile. "Seriously? They'd think you were weak as shit, Noah. That's not hot," she teased back, pushing his shoulder in retaliation before pausing as he turned to eye his face in the mirror. Chewing on her lower lip, Evie gazed at his reflection, wondering just how black and blue his eye would turn by morning.

"Like the bruise on your ribs?" She questioned as he faced her once more, raising a brow in seriousness despite the toothy grin he'd shot her way. Her brows were furrowed in slight concern, though Ev tried to push that away before it could become too obvious. With a little sigh, she stepped up beside him to assess the damage to her own face, a scowl quickly forming on her features.

"Even my eye is starting to bruise a little," Evie mumbled, irritated that this had happened. A bit of dried blood remained on her skin where it had trickled from her nose and, with a huff, she reached for a washcloth. After wetting it with water from the sink, she began to lightly dab around her nose, ridding it of the remaining dried, cracked blood. "We can both sport black eyes and ice bags now, though, huh? That's a hot look," the young woman commented, her eyes flickering up to find Noah in the mirror, a tiny smirk finding its way to her mouth once more.

Letting out another laugh the male shook his head, elbowing Evelina softly. "Oh no toots, that's where you are wrong. They will think I'm a perfect gentleman for not hitting back." He grinned, looking back into the mirror at himself noting the serious look taking over the brunette's face. Oh, right his ribs. Noah's grin faltered, his fingers now instinctively touching the slightly bruised area. He had completely forgotten all about that whole incident, he had been so wrapped up in Evelina's world he forgot about his own. "Yeah well, that wasn't the worst I've had either." Noah spoke quietly while his eyes focused on himself in the mirror.

Realizing the words slipping out of his mouth, Noah frowned his eyebrows pulling together. Evelina was beginning to grow on him and it was obvious. Everything about her was inviting and that honestly scared the shit out of the tall man. Clearing his throat he shook his head, making room for the girl who stepped up aside him to check on the damages to her own face. He eyed her, a smile now forming as she spoke about how their look was now considered a 'hot look'. Bloody nose or broken nose, Evelina was still gorgeous and that was starting to become a problem.

"Beautiful." Noah mumbled, his hand now coming up to pull a stray piece of hair that was threatening to fall in Evelina's face behind her ear. He bit down on his lip, removing his hand instantly before taking a step back from the sink. The feeling in his chest was constricting, something he wasn't ready to face. Standing in the bathroom without a shirt on in his swim trunks with Evelina beside him made him feel naked. He let out a cough, pushing his hands into the pockets of his trunks. "We should probably get back before anything else unfolds."

Evelina surprised herself with a little giggle as Noah teased her right back, elbowing her in the process. "Yeah okay, I'll let you keep believing that," she retorted playfully, casting him an eye roll before things turned more serious between them. In the reflection of the mirror, she noted how the man's grin faltered as his ribs were brought up, which caused that feeling of concern to grow within Evie once more. What had happened to him? She wasn't sure, but she knew it was more than him simply being clumsy.

Still, the woman let the subject drop, though not entirely because of her own free will. It mostly had to do with Noah himself; her fake boyfriend had stepped a little closer to her now and Evie was all too aware of the heat between their bodies. It had her pausing, swallowing thickly as he mumbled the word 'beautiful' before brushing a strand of hair behind her ear. Her breath hitched in her throat as she stared at him in the mirror, dark eyes watching his every move.

How in the world was it possible for him to make her feel all... fluttery inside? They were supposed to be fake dating for crying out loud. He couldn't be making her feel like this. And yet, he was.

Only when Noah moved away from her, his voice breaking the silence between them, did she manage to snap out of the daze he'd put her in. Clearing her throat, Evelina averted her eyes and nodded. "Yeah. Yeah we probably should," she agreed, managing to flash the man a weak smile before sliding past him and opening the bathroom door so she could escape the sudden awkward air between them. Deciding to keep her bikini and t-shirt on and not change outfits, Evie simply grabbed her bag of ice and turned to Noah once more, standing near the door of their bedroom. "C'mon, we should get you an ice bag, too," she said quietly, chewing on her bottom lip as she eyed him shyly. It was so unlike her to feel bashful around anyone, but somehow Noah was on the receiving end of her shyness and she didn't know what to do about it.

The silence between them was unnerving.

It wasn't awkward, it was sexually tense which frustrated Noah more than he'd like to admit. He let a breath out that he had been holding once the door was open, allowing his chest to exhale what he had been keeping in. Maybe being in the bathroom wasn't the best idea with Evelina around. Normally, he would have coaxed her into the shower but it seemed different now. Sure, he still wanted to do that...but not in a trashy way. In a respectable way. Noah moved slowly behind Evelina, keeping his eyes focused on the ground as he managed to take in some much needed breaths.

At the sound of her voice, Noah's head snapped up noting the bag of ice in Evelina's hand. Oh shit, that's right they were still fucked up. Ice was probably a good idea. He tilted his head, eyebrows raising at the sudden shyness coming from Evelina. Was she being effected by this too? His lips tugged up, giving her a half-hearted smile as he nodded and grabbed a stray t-shirt from the ground. He needed to get more clothes on, that was something he never thought he'd do. "Yeah, I would hate to have a black eye for the wedding." He teased, trying desperately to get out of the strange atmosphere.

Noah opened the bedroom door, waiting for Evelina to walk past before he closed the door behind him and stepped in sync with her down the hall. He stayed quiet, reaching down to intertwine their fingers together slowly as they made their way down the stairwell. To his surprise, everyone was gathered int he foyer at the bottom of the stairs. Everyone but Joshua. "Ah! There you two are! We came back in for lunch!" Jack spoke up, a glass of gin swirling around in his hand. "Noah, my boy, would you like a glass?" Noah could hardly contain his excitement, his head nodding faster than his mouth. "I thought you'd never ask." Noah leaned down pressing a kiss to the top of Evelina's head before untangling their fingers, reaching out at the newly poured glass from Jack. "You'll have to excuse Joshua, he had to go rest. Headache or something, right Madeline?" Jack eyed the woman standing next to their mother, nodding her head. "Yeah, he should be back in awhile!" She chirped, taking a small sip of her own drink.


Though, Joshua was not in his bedroom he was now in Noah and Evelina's with Noah's cell phone in hand.

A small laugh left Evelina's lips as Noah tried to lighten the air between them with yet another joke. "Yeah, Madi might throw an actual fit if you show up with a black eye," she commented with a smirk, her hands tucking her hair behind her ears once more as she spared the man a glance.

Before long, the two were hand in hand again and walking back down the stairs, ready to rejoin the volleyball game. Well, they expected to, at least, but it seemed as though everyone had gathered downstairs instead, drinks in hand as they mingled. Evie rose a brow in surprise, though smiled softly seeing her father make his way towards them, offering Noah a drink as he did so. Her smile grew slightly when, moments later, she felt her fake boyfriend plant a kiss on the top of her head for everyone to see. "Thanks for offering me one, dad," she teased lightly, just as her mother came up beside them.

"Oh, Evie! Your face!" the woman cried softly, eyes going wide as she took in Evelina's slightly swollen nose and eye, both of which were beginning to bruise. The woman’s reaction had her daughter immediately wanting to scowl, though she painted on a sickly sweet smile instead. “Don’t you remember me getting hit in the face with a volleyball, mom?” She questioned innocently before turning away and wandering off to grab a drink for herself.

Evelina returned a minute later with a vodka cran in hand, taking a sip with a small sigh as she rejoined the little gathering. It only took a few seconds for her to find Noah again and she quickly sidled up beside him, her small hand reaching out to intertwine their fingers as he conversed with her father. Debbie remained standing next to her husband, every so often throwing disapproving glances Evie’s way, to which her daughter blatantly ignored.

Apparently Evie was supposed to be able to avoid getting hit with volleyballs in the face.

Gin wasn't even something Noah enjoyed. But at this moment it was the best tasting drink he had ever had. Noah took another small swig on the liquid, noting as it burned slightly down his throat. He was so caught up in the drink he didn't even notice his 'girlfriend' take off in search of her own drink. When her fingers slid back in between his own, Noah glanced at the brunette letting a smile now grace his lips. "What do you have there?" He tilted his head, eyeing the drink for a moment before grinning. "Ah, something fruity." He teased, bumping his hip into the girls slightly before turning his head back in Jack's direction.

Jack was talking about going fishing at some point, or at least that is what Noah thought he was talking about but he was distracted by Joshua now making his way down the stairwell. He frowned, his hand giving Evelina's a slight squeeze before noting the small smirk Joshua had on his lips. Eyebrows now pulling together, Noah tore his gaze away taking yet another sip of the drink but this time finishing the small glass. He needed a refill.

"My apologies! My head was pounding!" Joshua exclaimed, throwing his hands up dramatically before being reconnected with Madeline by his side. Noah rolled his eyes, setting the empty glass on the table waving at the server for another drink. "We also have a new groomsman to the group. I apologize for the last minute change, he should be arriving shortly." Who adds people to the wedding party literally less than a month before the wedding? "The more the merrier!" Madeline grinned, pressing a kiss to the man's cheek before returning to the group.

As Noah turned his attention to her, Evie couldn't help but roll her eyes in amusement at his light teasing before suddenly remembering they were right in the middle of the family gathering. That meant acting extra coupley, something she wasn't particularly in the mood for after getting hit in the face with a ball. Still, she forced herself to act the part. After all, neither of them could afford to let their secret out.

"What? Are vodka crans too girly for you?" The brunette teased in return, letting out a purposefully obnoxious giggle as she hip checked him back. The wide smile that spread across Debbie's face as she watched the couple satisfied Evelina; clearly their little act was working quite well. Just as the older woman was about to comment, however, Jack spoke up again, drawing their attention back to him as he went on and on about fishing. None of it interested Evie, but she lingered regardless, her hand still intertwined with Noah's. She had zoned out after a while, but when she felt a squeeze to her hand, she lifted her head to see what he wanted. No sooner had she done that did she hear Joshua's voice calling out.

The sound of it had the brunette woman groaning to herself, her brows furrowing as she turned to glance at him. Yet what he said had her pausing in confusion. Another best man? Who the hell added another best man a month out from the wedding? Releasing a heavy sigh, Evie let her gaze trail back to Noah only to see him on his second drink already. "Whoa, take it easy, babe. You don't want to get too drunk before dinner," she murmured playfully, letting go of his hand so she could grab his drink to take a sip for herself.

The horrid taste had her scrunching up her face in disgust, though, and she quickly placed the glass back into Noah's hand. "Yeah, okay, I'm definitely not helping you finish that," Evie joked, her brown eyes finding his as she spoke. Then she took another few sips of her own drink, needing to get rid of the lingering taste of gin in her mouth.

Joshua was up to something, Noah could feel it.

Whatever it was, it was more thank likely not going to be good. Noah couldn't help the worry lines start to indent in his forehead, looking down at Evelina when she mentioned taking it easy on the drink. "What?" He murmured focusing his gaze now on the brunette beside him. Right, he needed to pace himself even thought two little drinks wouldn't even touch him never mind give him a buzz. They could revisit that when he's eight drinks in.

The warmth from her hand was gone, his eyes now moving to see the horrid look on the girls face. He grinned, rolling his eyes as he leaned down pressing a kiss to the girl's forehead. "And that is why you stick to the fruity drinks, toots." He teased lightly before taking another sip of the drink, placing the bottom onto the napkin on the tabletop.


_____________________​


Dinner had arrived much quicker than Noah anticipated and he was on his...seventh drink? He had lost count, Jack kept handing them to him. Half of the wedding party was too-far gone at that point. "Toots, your dad is hilarious." Noah hummed, leaning down to press kisses on the tip of Evelina's bruised nose. "I kind of dig the bruised look." He let a warm smile reach his lips, his head slightly spinning or maybe that was just the room. Jesus, whatever Jack was giving him was strong but at least he wasn't the only one ready to fall on his ass. "Evelina! You're married next! Noah, my boy!" The sentence wasn't even coherent, Jack was now being pulled--no dragged by Debbie who was the least bit enthused with her husbands behavior. "That's enough for you Jack, Joshua's second best man arrived we need to introduce him."

Noah blinked, turning to look at Evelina once more before showing his teeth in a toothy smile. "You hear that toots? We're getting married."


"Evelina, it's so nice to see you."

The tone of voice was too familiar, enough to sober Noah up in a second. The male blinked, unsure if he was now hearing things. Turning his gaze, Noah watched as Marcus started to head towards them. How the fuck did Marcus know Evelina? Had they met before? He frowned, his eyebrows pulling together as he looked down at Evelina.

By the time dinner rolled around, Evelina was safely onto her fourth or fifth drink. But with her being a whole lightweight, she was easily pretty far gone by now. And with drunk Evie came touchy, giggly Evie. Even with dinner in front of her, she couldn't keep her hands off of Noah, who was sitting right beside her this time, rather than across the table. Her hand remained resting on his thigh throughout the majority of their meal.

As her fake boyfriend addressed her moments later, the girl found herself giggling, scrunching up her nose as he kissed it several times. But scrunching it hurt much more than she anticipated and she winced as her nose quickly grew sore. Damn, she'd forgotten about the whole volleyball episode given her current intoxicated state. Ah well, it didn't matter when she was getting cute compliments from Noah. "I kind of dig you," the woman giggled up at Noah, giving his thigh a squeeze before laughing as her father chimed in, just as buzzed as the rest of them. "Uh huh, sure, daddy," she mumbled, though she couldn't quite resist flashing Noah a wry smirk.

Just then, however, things took a much different turn. One moment they were joking around and the next, Evie was suddenly hearing a rather familiar voice greeting her. She whipped around in her seat, a bright smile crossing her features as, sure enough, Marcus was there, approaching them. "Marcus! What are you doing here?" She questioned, giggling as she pushed herself to her feet, completely oblivious to the look Noah had sent her.

"I'm here for the wedding, of course," the man exclaimed playfully as Evelina stepped towards him to give him a rather friendly hug.

"Well you joined the party at just the right time," Evie grinned widely, admittedly more than excited to see her ex-boyfriend.

/ / /

The remainder of the meal seemed to pass by in a flash for Evelina. She and Marcus caught up a little, with Evie introducing him to Noah (completely oblivious to the fact that the two already knew each other). But after dessert had come and gone and the woman had drank a little more, she only had one thing on her mind. And that was taking Marcus up to her bedroom so she could have a little 'alone time' with him. In her buzzed mind, all thoughts of Noah had seemingly vanished, though the man himself had as well, thanks to Jack, who had stolen him to talk fishing with, along with the rest of his buddies.

Left to her devices with Marcus, Evelina had no issues sneaking him away from the group, giggling quietly as she tugged him up the stairs. "Whoa, Evie, take it easy, babe," Marcus laughed as he followed after her, amusement shining in his eyes. It was clear neither of them were exactly thinking about the fact that Evelina was leaving Noah behind and hooking up with Marcus instead.

"What, Marc? You liked it wild and crazy before. Or have you changed since we last slept together?" Evie taunted, grinning at him wryly before the two disappeared into her and Noah's massive bedroom together.

Hot.

Was it hot in here? Or was it just Evelina? Fuck, it was just Evelina.

The two were past their point of return drinks wise, Evelina was starting to get touchy and Noah was all about it. The male had just about choked on the piece of meat he had placed in his mouth when he felt Evelina's hand on his thigh. She was playing with fire and Noah was not about to let it be extinguished. Every little squeeze of his thigh only made that fire burn larger, heat building up on every inch of Noah's long body with every touch. If he was burned alive he would die happily at this very moment.

Though, all good things always come to an end.

The sheer sight of Marcus had doused every flame, turning Noah pale and cold. What the fuck was he doing here? How did Evelina even know the prick? He didn't let his gaze stray from the other man as Evelina had spoken to him as if they had been best fucking friends. His teeth snapped together, hands coming into fists as the brunette hopped to Marcus, throwing her arms around him in a hug. Evelina even had the fucking gall to introduce them! Marcus with his hand extending towards Noah's own. This was not fucking happening. The brunette was more than happy when he was swept away by Jack once dinner had come to an end.

_______________________________​


"I know, I know I have to go I'll see you boys tomorrow. Try not to black out now." Noah winked, grinning at the group of older men. Jack had swept him away right when he needed to be taken away the most. Noah needed to get out of Marcus' sight, he had to figure out what the hell he was going to do. He needed to just go find Evelina and try and relax before he had to pry the girl about how the hell she knew Marcus. She had to know how dangerous he was. Nothing ever good came about his presence. Noah climbed the stairs quickly, his head still buzzing slightly from the alcohol he had consumed. "Evelina." He spoke out, now pushing the door to their bedroom open. Maybe the two could go down to the beach and rela---wait, was that a fucking moan?

Pressing the door open farther, Noah couldn't help the lump forming in the back of his throat. "You have got to be fucking kidding me." Noah didn't hide the shock from his face, his hands falling from the doorknob as he stared at the sight in front of him. Shocked? Yes. Disappointed? Absolutely. Disgusted? One-hundred percent. Enraged? He was going to kill him...or possibly her. Noah let his gaze move from Marcus' bare back to Evelina's eyes, not leaving them for what felt like forever before he simply turned and left the room, slamming the door behind him.

Noah didn't waste time, the left over buzz from the alcohol completely vanishing with every heated step he took. Pissed was an understatement. He was going to take the first girl he saw and fuck her. It was going to be that simple. Oh, Madeline. Perfect. The older sister was making her way down the hallway, a smile playing on her lips as she had made it towards Noah. "Noah! I hope daddy didn't get you too drunk--hey, where are we going?" Madeline frowned, her feet now attempting to keep up with Noah's own footsteps his hand tightly gripping her arm. Noah didn't speak, his grip not letting up until they reached the door to the bedroom he was sharing with Evelina.

Flinging the door open Noah tugged the girl in behind him, ignoring the gasp leaving her lips as she saw the sight of her sister with Marcus. "What the hell is going--" Lips finding her own, Noah was quick to push Madeline up against the back of the door his hands cupping the girls bottom swooping her up with legs wrapped around his waist. "Complaining?" Noah grumbled, his mouth moving feverishly against the girls earning a soft yelp before a swift shaking of the girls head. "I didn't think so." His shirt was now on the ground, his hands not leaving the girls bottom as he walked with her around his waist into the bathroom.

"Ah! Noah! Oh my...god."

As soon as the words slipped the girls mouth, The bathroom door was slammed shut.

Evelina had forgotten just how good Marcus was in bed. The moment the two of them slipped into the bedroom, he’d swept her off of her feet and placed her on the bed, his shirt landing on the floor next to it only moments later. It didn’t take long for Evie’s pants to undergo the same treatment.

By the time Noah burst into the bedroom, however, her shirt had followed suit, leaving her in only her bra and panties, while Marcus was still shirtless. At the sound of her fake boyfriend’s voice, Evelina tensed beneath the man above her, pulling away from his kisses only to see Noah standing at the door, wide eyed as he took in the sight before him. He’d turned and slammed the door before she could get a single word out, however, leaving her in stunned silence.

It didn’t take long, though, for her and Marcus to resume their little activity, kissing feverishly and letting their hands wander all over each other’s bodies. Being so drunk, Evie didn’t really linger on the thought of Noah, at least not until she and Marcus were interrupted yet again. But this time it wasn’t just Noah there; Madi was being tugged into the room, too. Evelina pulled away from Marcus as she realized this, her eyes going wide as Noah scooped her sister up, her legs going around his waist as he carried her into the bathroom.

“Holy fuck...” The younger sibling whispered, her gaze flickering back to Marcus above her. The man simply smirked, lifting a hand to brush a few strands of hair from her face. ”Make him jealous, sweetheart. You deserve better than him anyway. C’mon, kiss me like you missed me,” he whispered, grinning as Evie gave in with a little sniffle and planted her lips on his.

Evelina could hear Noah and Madi in the bathroom as they went at it, obnoxiously loud. But it only made her more pissed off, resulting in her purposely moaning Marcus’ name louder than she needed to. But after another ten or so minutes of this, the girl still couldn’t get her mind off of Noah fucking her sister in the bathroom next to them. Before she could let Marcus convince her otherwise, she was pushing him off of her and scrambling out of bed. Her feet stomped against the floor as she raced to the bathroom, her hands reaching out to grasp the doorknob and throwing the door open.

“Noah, get the fuck off of my sister,” Evie cried, an exasperated look on her face. She was definitely still drunk and the way she was about to literally throw herself at Noah any moment was proof. Not that she’d let him break her fury so quickly.

Madeline was the worst kisser.

This was going to be the quickest lay he'd ever had. He wanted it to be over before it even started. Noah inwardly groaned, shaking his head as he pulled his lips from Madeline's. Her kisses were sloppy and unorganized. Two things that made absolutely no sense together and Noah was not about it. The thought of just playing the moan game was there, he didn't have to actually go through with the whole thing. As long as Evelina knew he was pissed that's all he cared about.

Madeline's hands were everywhere and it made Noah uncomfortable as if he was doing something he shouldn't be. He would never pass an opportunity, that was just stupid. But this one, he'd pass. Noah squeezed his eyes shut, pressing his lips against the girls neck as he tried to envision Evelina's neck instead of Madeline's. It was failing miserably, especially with all the squealing coming from the girl. If this was how she was he felt bad for Joshua. Pants now off, Noah never wanted so desperately to be clothed his hands now fumbling with Madeline's own.

The cry from Evelina halted Noah's fingers, his gaze now moving from Madeline's neck to the small girl in the doorframe. Oh, so now she was upset? He rolled his eyes, pulling his mouth from Madeline's neck before he took a step back the girl toppling from the wall to the floor. "Oh, so now it's okay for you to come in and stop me? That's rude, toots." He spat, taking two steps towards Evelina. "Two pump chump out there couldn't even make it two minutes so you had to come in here?" "Evelina you need to--" "Get the fuck out." Noah's gaze didn't leave Evelina's as the words spilled from his mouth. He had no time to deal with any bullshit that Madeline was going to attempt to start. This was between him and his girlfriend.

Silent, Noah was trying to think of his next words. What the fuck was he even supposed to say? How could you? They weren't even really dating, so why was he so upset? Was it because it was with Marcus? Yeah, let's go with that.

The bathroom door slammed shut by a mortified Madeline, followed by another slam from the bedroom door. It made Noah's ears ring and his mouth dry. The tension couldn't have been cut with a knife, it was too thick. The air was heavy and so was the breathing escaping Noah's lungs. He knew Evelina felt it too. "Fuck it."

It was then that Noah had made a decision, one of the hastiest decisions he had ever made in his entire life. He moved slowly his dark eyes not leaving Evelina's, his fingers encircling both of her wrists tossing her arms up and over his shoulders. Moving his hands down, he cupped her bottom and swooped her up pressing her own back this time onto the door. His gaze didn't shift the entire time his eyes locked onto her own. "Evelina." He breathed, his eyes finally shutting before pressing his lips to her own.

Game Over.

Evelina was fuming. Positively fuming. The deep scowl on her face was proof, but what wasn’t evident was the burning jealousy underneath the surface of her anger. She wasn’t exactly sure why she was jealous. After all, they were only fake dating. It wasn’t as if they were actually together. Yet she was sure as hell acting like it with the way she’d left Marcus high and dry and burst in on Noah and Madi.

For a brief moment, her eyes wandered over Noah’s half naked body, her bottom lip sliding between her teeth before she remembered she was supposed to be angry. A glare replaced her earlier scowl as Noah addressed her and she rolled her eyes at his little comment. Despite how much she wanted to snap at him in response, she forced herself to remain quiet instead. At least until Madeleine left the bathroom, soon slamming the bedroom door in her haste to get out.

Turning back to Noah, Evelina flashed him a deep frown, her lips parting to scold him for ever thinking he could get with her sister. Before she could, he was cursing quietly and stepping towards her, eyes locked on hers as his fingers found her wrists. Evie’s breath hitched in her throat, but she let him cup her bottom before sweeping her up off of her feet. A soft gasp left her mouth, her arms around his neck as he breathed her name before connecting their lips.

Evie melted into the kiss as if she’d turned to butter. His mouth on hers was hot and, well, sexy. She couldn’t get enough of it as she deepened their kiss, unable to help herself and the way she desperately ached for him now. What was this? Since when had the air between them turned into such sexual tension? Evelina wasn’t sure, but right now, she wasn’t going to question it.
