I was buck naked<br \/>\nin his arms. I should\u2019ve dressed, but I didn\u2019t have the energy.<br \/>\nHis breath felt good on my neck as he answered. \u201cI was up with the guys. I missed you.\u201d<br \/>\nMeaning: he\u2019d either been fighting or drinking with the group of guys he considered<br \/>\nmore family than family.<br \/>\nI lifted one of his hands to inspect the knuckles, rubbing a thumb over them. \u201cThey don\u2019t<br \/>\nlook bruised up.\u201d<br \/>\nHis body tensed, all six feet of pure muscle.<br \/>\nChanning had a face for the fashion runways, a body of tattoos that could appear in any<br \/>\nmagazine, and an attitude that made him a leader among the rowdiest and most criminally<br \/>\ninclined. He was whip smart, ruthless, cunning, cocky, and had a charming side that had started<br \/>\nsome of our fights. He could be too charming at times, putting his name on a lot of girls\u2019 to-do<br \/>\nlists. It\u2019d been a problem for us since we were kids, and though it\u2019d gotten better over the last<br \/>\nfew years, I knew women came onto him regularly.<br \/>\nBut being transparent here, that wasn\u2019t the cause of our problems lately.<br \/>\nHis voice was quiet. \u201cI wasn\u2019t fighting.\u201d<br \/>\nI turned and tried to smell his breath.

He did this when he was trying to<br \/>\nfigure out where I was going with my statements and if that\u2019d take us into a fight.
