The Bad Boy and The Sheriff’s Son.Chapter 24: words left unsaid .“I thought you wanted me to be in a relationship.”“Yes, I do, but with someone who doesn’t have homework every night,” she whispered close to his face to stroke his cheek when she stood and waltzed over to the bar.Derrick opened his mouth to argue that but the words wouldn’t come out when he looked over to see Ian on his phone paying no attention to him. The knot in his chest tightened enough for him to fight for breath and his mind felt like cotton wool when he stood up needing to walk. The music was loud and sweat covered his back and collarbone when he looked around and moved past the loud talking people.“Hey, are you okay?” a warm unfamiliar voice said grabbing his wrist gently so he turned to see the guy Boyd had been talking to. “I saw you watching Boyd and I before, are you friends with him?”“Yeah, occasionally,” he muttered with a hard swallow before looking down at his hand still covering his wrist with
The Bad Boy and The Sheriff’s Son.Chapter 25:.“Do you want us to be official?”“Yeah, god yeah, I mean after two months of getting to know you and sleeping with you…I’d like something official but this isn’t just about me, Derrick, this is about you as well. You said you mulled things over about me a lot…do you want to be in a relationship?” Jordan pressed stepping closer to him and seeing the conflict burning in his eyes. “Or are those so called friends of yours right?”“You’re insatiable,” Derrick murmured shaking his head.“To you?”“Yeah,” he agreed with a nod and tilted his head back with a sigh. “I still haven’t told you everything.”“Ditto!” Jordan exclaimed.“I’m older than you.”“Five years, you have a reputation, my dad and my best friend don’t like you, and you’re a grumpy asshole most of the time but some of the time you’re not like everyone thinks you are. I don’t care about that, I care about the person who gets up at eight when we’re hungover and makes bacon and egg
The Bad Boy and The Sheriff’s Son.Chapter 26: disgustingly cute .It was his routine now, if he wasn’t with Shawn, his dad, or on a rare occasion Laura, then he was with Derrick. That was always the best time and he’d rather be with him than anyone else selfishly enough. Jordan parked and ran up the stairs to the loft and pulled it open to see him relaxing and smoking on the sofa.“I thought you were getting patches,” he said stripping off his jacket when he closed the door over and walked over to him. “Lung cancer is possible.”“I know,” Derrick said dryly looking up to meet his eyes and let out a small grunt when he straddled his lap stealing it off him. “You have something on your chin…”“Oh, what?” he murmured pressing his thumb against it and drawing it away. “Oh syrup, we had pancakes.”“You’re disgustingly messy,” Derrick murmured putting his hands behind his head to watch him. Jordan hummed with a nod when he took a drag and exhaled passing it back to him to see lust shin
The Bad Boy and The Sheriff’s Son.Chapter 27: are we okay? .Jordan opened and closed his mouth wordlessly before chucking it aside and running at him. He caught him easily enough when he jumped at him and kissed him hard. Jordan wrapped his legs around his waist whispering his endearments against his lips when Derrick supported his weight.“You’re amazing,” Jordan whispered clutching the back of his hair with his fingers. “Are you serious right now? So you’re taking me to San Francisco, you’re giving me a thousand dollars to spend on whatever I want, and we’re staying in a nice hotel for the night?”“Deadly serious,” he confirmed with a blank expression when Jordan made an excited sound kissing him again.“You two are disgustingly cute! Will you leave before I puke?!” Demi shouted from above.Derrick rolled his eyes when he deposited Jordan back onto his feet and went to get their bags. Jordan was giddy when they left the loft and headed down to the car.“Has Shawn not said anyth
The Bad Boy and The Sheriff’s Son.Chapter 28: Everything, us, my life.Derrick met his challenge when he pushed him harder up against the pool and captured his lips with his. His mouth opened for him willingly when he stroked his tongue over his pistoling his hips into him. The water lapped at his back as well as Jordan’s fingernails when they dug into his shoulders.“Oh fuck!” Jordan cried out wrapping a hand around his own cock jerking himself off. “I think I’m about to come into a pool.”“Do it,” Derrick insisted and watched him intently when Jordan clamped up with a groan climaxing between them. They both looked down to see it floating in the pool and Jordan laughed closing his eyes.“Oh my god,” he whispered breathing hard and Derrick couldn’t hold back his own orgasm when let his lips rest against his throat when he climaxed. He shuddered his way through it and leaned into him basking in the afterglow.“I can officially mark off having sex in a pool,” Jordan muttered when D
The Bad Boy and The Sheriff’s Son.Chapter 29: The father son talk .Jordan attempted to do the dutiful son act by making dinner, healthy with salad because he worried about his blood pressure, and waited for him to come home. It was half five when the front door opened and Jordan braced himself with a small smile turning his back on him when he turned the sauce.“Are we going to talk about how you didn’t come home last night?”“I should have told you, I know, I’m sorry, I just fell asleep and didn’t wake up till seven the next morning. I didn’t mean to worry you but I was safe? That has to mean something.”“Yes, safe, but safe with who, Jordan? I’m getting really tired of waiting for you to tell me who you’re dating and why you’re so scared to tell me,” he said folding his arms over his chest and looked tired and frustrated.“I want to tell you.”“Just tell me, I’m your father, Jordie, why wouldn’t I understand?”“Because it’s who it is,” Jordan muttered turning the burner off bef
The Bad Boy and The Sheriff’s Son.Chapter 30: so it begins .Derrick looked drawn out and his eyes conflicted when he nodded slowly. “Okay.”“He’s wrong!” Jordan protested moving out of his arms and inhaling deeply when he stood in the middle of the floor. “I’m eighteen, I can make my own decisions about…everything. My career, my life, my love life, and he can’t force me to do anything.”“He just wants to look out for you,” Derrick replied softly lingering in the background.“My dad also said he’d support me in anything and he hasn’t.”“Can you blame him?”“I understand why he’s upset but telling me to end things with us? Yes, I do blame him.”Derrick sighed behind him before walking over and gripping his hand when he turned him around. “He’s your dad, he wants what’s best for you, like any parent would. This doesn’t surprise me.”“I’m not ending things!”“I’m not asking you to, I wouldn’t want that either, but you need to understand where he’s coming from, Jordan.”Jordan stared i
The Bad Boy and The Sheriff’s Son.Chapter 31: couples fight .The benefits of being in a fight with your dad meant that he wasn’t grounded and he could get drunk with his friends. He spent the night with Derrick instead of going home and to say things had been a little awkward between them was an understatement. Derrick wasn’t ready to talk to him and he couldn’t force him despite how much he wanted to pin him down and get it out of him. Jordan wanted to know all of them but speaking about the past was difficult in any case. During the night he woke up in his arms and chose to watch him sleep like a creeper. There was a soft almost vulnerable expression on his face when he slept and he wanted to see it forever. He wanted to help him, be there for him, and help him move on from what he was hiding so well. Ever since that day months ago his nightmares were few and few.There was the odd time that Derrick jerked out of his sleep with a gasp and Jordan pretended to sleep listening
