"Victoria, darling!" My sister waltzed in, her billionaire husband following suit. Her tall, lean figure was covered with a form fitting, blue gown, her long blonde hair pulled into a complex updo. She smiled, leaning down to kiss my mom's cheek, her husband, Jack, doing the same. "Oh, and Austin and Laura!"

My brother, Austin, and his wife wandered in, his navy suit well tailored and her ivory dress form fitting. But they didn't look nearly as stuck up as our sister did. But she always looked like that. I stood, hugging Laura tightly before Austin broke us apart, pulling me into a bear hug. "Hey, baby sister," he smiled. "Who's this?"

Lip stick his hand out and smiled. "Austin, this is my boyfriend, Lip."

"Like Philip?" He nodded, laughing as Austin patted him on the back. "What are you drinking?" He took the flute from Lip's grasp, walking away and returning with a glass of scotch. "Sorry our mother is quite the fancy hostess." Lip shrugged, smiling as they continued in small talk.

"Oh, hello Noelle." I turned and looked up at my sister, plastering the most fake smile on my face as she did that weird cheek kiss thing like they do in Europe. "How are you?" Victoria was the oldest out of all of us, and she always used it to her advantage.

"Good," I smiled. I didn't care how she was, so I didn't ask.

"And you are," she asked as Lip walked up, setting his hand on my waist.

"Lip, Elle's boyfriend. Nice to meet you." She nodded, shaking his hand.

"This is my husband, Jack. Jack, honey, this is Noelle's boyfriend, Pip."

"Lip," he quickly corrected, shaking his hand. Jack nodded and smiled. He was much more laid back and nice than Victoria was, and I honestly had no clue how he stayed with her all these years.

"Very nice to meet you," Jack said, releasing his grip and hugging me quickly.

"Want to tour the house," I whispered. Lip smiled, nodding as we set out drinks down and I lead him up the stairs. "When I did live with my parents, this was my room." I pushed open the giant white doors, revealing a huge four column bed and a vanity.

"You lived in here?" I nodded. He smirked, shutting the door behind him and waking over to me.

"Lip, what are you doing?" He smirked, his arms around my waist as he pulled my back to his front, his lips pressing behind my ear.

"It's tradition for a new couple to have sex in the parents' house, baby." I laughed, turning to face him.

"We aren't really boyfriend and girlfriend, though."

"Hey," he smiled. "I meant what I said about freshman year. And everything else." I smiled, my fingers combing through the hair at the base of his neck. "C'mon, babe." His fingers were gripping my waist, his body swaying us to non existent music. I sighed, pressing a kiss to his lips. He smiled, deepening the kiss. He moved us over to the bed, throwing me down on it as he took his suit jacket off, tossing it across the room. He climbed on top of me, his head ducking down to press his lips against my neck. "You look so damn good in this dress," he breathed.

His fingers reached behind my back, unzipping the dress and pulling it down. His mouth was instantly paying attention to my chest, his hands wandering farther down my body. I pulled his face back to mine, kissing him hard as I unbuttoned his shirt. He peeled it off, his hands pushing the dress completely away. My fingers undid his belt and button, pushing his pants away. We were both left in our underwear, panting heavily as he stripped us down the rest of the way.

His reached for his wallet, pulling a silver packet out and tearing it open with his teeth. "Seriously," I asked, sitting up on my elbows.

"I'm always prepared, baby."
