“Jack!” they both said.

“What? I didn’t say I wouldn’t look.”

She glared at him.

“Fine,” Jack said. “I’ll get the towel. And I won’t look.”

“Let me try again,” Ian told her. “Reach up for me.”

She eyed him suspiciously, but grasped hold of his upper arms as he grabbed her under her arms, lifting her.

“There, see. I did it without looking.”

Jack quickly wrapped the towel around her. Then Ian picked her up, carrying her out to the bedroom.

“Wait! I need to dry off!”

“You can’t do that on your own,” Ian said gruffly. “You might fall.”

These guys were too much. But without protesting she let Jack kneel in front of her and use an extra towel to dry her feet and legs. Then he moved to her arms.

Standing, he grabbed an oversized T-shirt that looked like it belonged to him or Ian.

“Um, I have my own clothes, guys.”

“This will be more comfortable,” Jack replied before pulling it over her head. She had no choice but to put her arms in the sleeves. “Besides, I like you wearing me.” He winked at her as she groaned.

That was terrible.

But at least it was a more Jack-like answer. Which set her at ease.

She didn’t miss intense Jack.

Nope. not at all.

Hmm. Denial had always been one of her biggest flaws.

“Is Uncle Willy all right?” she asked, trying to get her mind off ‘wearing Jack.’

What would it be like to feel his naked skin against hers?

“I just checked on him before,” Ian said. “He’s sleeping. We got him a monitor too. The nurse will be here soon.” He set her in the middle of the bed, then picked up what looked like a baby monitor from the bedside table.

She eyed it suspiciously. “I’m not a baby.”

“No one said you were,” Jack replied easily as he settled in front of her and proceeded to slip some fluffy socks on her feet.

Where had he gotten those from?

They were bright yellow and so darn cheerful. Definitely not something she would buy.

And yet you’re not telling him to take them off . . .

Only because she had cold feet.

“It’s just a tool we can use to look after you,” Ian said in a suspiciously casual voice.

Yeah. She just bet it was.
