DOMINIC (Slater Brothers, #1)

"We're payin' costumers, you have to kiss us. It's in the rules." Gavin Collins grinned when he shoved his way to the front of the line.

I was in a lot of Gavin's classes, and he seemed like a really nice lad. He was really cute as well, so when my face turned red it wasn't because I was angry with him. He was one of those lads that was seriously good looking, tall and lean but still remained nice and not arrogant. Which made him many girls' perfect dream man.

"Whatever," I muttered, trying to downplay my blush.

Gavin stepped forward, dropped four Euro into my basket, and smirked at my raised eyebrows. "I want an extra long kiss."

I felt horrified and flattered at the same time.

"What? Why?"

Gavin gave me a 'duh' look, but I didn't understand what I was supposed to get so I just stared back at him until he laughed and leaned the whole one hundred percent of the way into me, put his hand on the back of my neck, and pulled my head to his.

Then he kissed me, and because I was so shocked, I opened my mouth which he filled with his tongue. I couldn't pull away and the way his hand cupped my face, I could do nothing but mimic his actions and kiss him back.

This was my first real kiss.

That's all I could think of during the kiss; it didn't leave a lot of time to actually enjoy it. I blinked my eyes open when Gavin pulled away from me grinning.

"That was more than four Euros worth so here is another two." He chuckled and flipped another two Euro into my basket.

I just blinked at him before clearing my throat. "Uh, thanks?"

Gavin laughed, then winked as he moved aside in the line. The next couple of lads kissed me exactly like Gavin did, and it made me feel weird. These lads never paid attention to me at all during our time in school, not that I paid them any either, and yet they kissed me like I was their one and only. I kissed them back just like they kissed me, but there was no intensity behind my kisses. I was merely just moving my mouth and tongue.

My lips were starting to hurt and felt a little puffy, so by the time the last lad from the team in line stepped up to me, I was happy it was nearly over. I wasn't happy when I saw who the lad was though.

"No way," I hissed, "go to Destiny!"

Jason smirked at me and said, "I'm a brunette man, Bronagh, can't bend the rules."

I hissed at him. "That's bullshit, you hate me, and I hate you. This is not happenin'!"

He stepped towards me, and I growled.

"Problem with kissin' me, Bronagh?" Jason grinned.

"I have a list a fuckin' mile long!" I snapped making him snicker.

I grimaced.

I hated him so much, probably even more than I hated Dominic. I groaned then; Jason was back in school, and Dominic was here as well now. They both made my life hell and would totally be to blame if I ever killed myself.

Jason stepped forward to me again so I swung at him with my right fist making him laugh and jump back. I heard a deep chuckle from behind Jason then, a chuckle that made me want to shrivel up and die.

"I'm feeling a little jealous here, Bronagh, I thought I was the only guy that you physically assaulted around here."

I growled when Dominic stepped out from behind Jason and grinned down at me.

The lanky bastard!

"You must be Nico?" Jason said getting Dominic's attention.

Dominic looked to him and nodded, which made Jason smile as he said, "Some of the lads told me you filled in on tormentin' Bronagh while I was away. It's much appreciated, man. I didn't want her to get too bored without someone to annoy her."

I scoffed.

What a dick!

"When you're both done blowin' each other, you can kindly fuck off," I bit out making them both turn to me and grin.

I glared at them both.

"Rules say you have to kiss anyone from the ages of thirteen and eighteen if they are payin'," Jason smirked at me.

I wanted to kick him in the face.

"I know the fuckin' rules but why me? Why not Destiny? You both hate me, and I hate you!"

They both smiled, and I snarled.

I flicked my eyes behind the lads' forms and spotted a girl that for once made me happy at the sight of her.

"Micah," I shouted, "your boyfriend is tryin' to buy a kiss!"

Jason's face turned red when he looked over his shoulder and spotted Micah Daley, his equally evil girlfriend, storming towards us.

"You fuckin' cunt!" Jason hissed to me.

He turned to face Micah and held his hands up by his face. "I'm team captain; I have to kiss one of them, and I had to pick a brunette because they are my preference, but I was only goin' to plant one on her cheek. I swear."

Micah glared at him.

"Like I'd kiss any girl when I have you, babe. Especially Bronagh. Micah, she is disgustin'."

Thanks for the vote of confidence, prick.

I rolled my eyes.

"Give me the two Euro," Micah snapped and held out her hand.

Jason gave her his money then turned his body to look at her when she moved by him and headed towards me. Fuck!

"I wasn't goin' to let him kiss me cheek, I swear," I blurted out and resisted throwing my arms in front of my face.
