Liv chuckles. “She’s not that dense.”
“I’d say give her a melatonin but then I’d feel like an asshole because that kid is my bestie.”
She raises her brows. “Yeah?”
“Sorry, baby.” I press my lips to hers and my blood immediately sprints right to my cock.
“I think you get along a little too well,” Liv admits before my tongue slips inside her mouth. I don’t bother to answer that question until I’m slightly satisfied with the way Liv’s body rubs up against mine and pull back a little.
“Do you feel an overthrow of power, Opie?”
“I feel a lot of tag-teaming.”
“Depends on what it is.”
“Like?”
“Movies and food and?—”
“You can stop right there,” Liv retorts, placing a hand on my chest. “Because food is an important issue.”
“So is not being inside you, but we all have to make sacrifices here, Liv. It’s part of the process.”
She rolls her eyes. “Yeah…okay. I guess you moving across the country is?—”
“All done,” I tell her, receiving a furrowed brow and wrinkled nose.
“What?”
“I flew into Cali last night. Spent all day getting shit off the moving truck, then came here.”
“You…found a place already?”
“Not for Rapture Ink but for myself, yeah. I wasn’t going to make Mia uncomfortable by forcing myself to live here, plus I know this is an adjustment for you and Rory. But…when my lease is up next year, we might be having a different conversation here, Op.”
“I can’t believe you didn’t tell me.”
“You mad?”
She immediately shakes her head. “No. I just…would’ve helped.”
“That’s what Miles and Devin are for, baby. They need the work or they don’t function properly.”
“Are they staying here, too?”
“Unfortunately,” I grumble even though I’m not that pissed off about it. “They’re staying with me at the house I’m renting.”
“They’re going to drive you crazy.”
I lift my shoulders. “They already do.”
Liv wraps her arms around my waist. “I can’t believe you’re here. That this is real.”
“It’s real,” I vow with a small kiss to her nose. “I’m gonna go look at a few places tomorrow for the shop. You wanna come? You can help me vibe it out.”
She nods. “Yeah, I’d love to. I can have Mia watch Rory?—”
“Bring the nugget, too,” I suggest. “She knows me. She’ll be able to help with shit.”
