His expression fell, his hands raised. “Look, little. You don’t have to wear it. I just wanted you to have it cuz it’s yours so—”
I hugged him, and he froze. Like literally locked up in my arms. He hadn’t been expecting this.
And neither had I.
My throat and eyes burning I hadn’t expected either, a frog in my throat. “God, would you shut the fuck up, big.”
“Big?” he questioned, and it sounded like he had a little bit of that frog in his throat too. His arms fell around me, hugging me back. His chin touched the top of my head. That was how tall he was. “What the fuck is that? Me?”
He said it with a laugh, a throaty, raspy one that made me swallow.
“Yeah, that’s you,” I said, smiling. I came away. “Little and big. I’ve officially decided.”
“Little and big,” he repeated, like we were cementing it. He watched as I put my necklace on, the same one he wore. We matched, and it felt like our own little thing. Like his Court stuff with the rest of the guys and Bow. We were little Mallick and big Mallick.
And I finally felt like we’d be okay.
