I have no doubts. No questions. Not wondering at all if what I feel for her is love. It is. Every part of me is infused with love for Laney.

I won’t lose her again. Won’t let her question my position.

Laney’s eyes twinkle, her already beautiful red lips blushing further from her weeping. “I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry for pushing you away, I’m–”

“Don’t apologize,” I say. “You needed to come to this on your own time.”

“Yeah, what Mason said.” Nate jerks his head.

I glare at Nate with playfulness. “You can’t be copying me all the time when I say the right thing.”

“Why not? I’m just doubling down on the good thing.”

Laney grins. “Oh, I love you both so much.”

Nate and I both lean in, kissing her cheeks simultaneously. It’s so corny, and I love it. I’m eating it up.

Laney makes me cheesy and lovesick, and I want to feel like this the rest of my life.

“Put it on me, Mason, would you?” Laney holds up thenecklace box.

I check in with Nate if it’s alright. He spreads his hand out. “Do the honors, man.”

Getting to my feet, I circle behind Laney, and put the necklace against her neck.

Seeing the way the charm fits at the center of her clavicle fills me with pride.

Laney, Nate, and me. The three of us.

We’re unstoppable.

I clip it around her neck, relish the way Laney leans her head back to look at me, the darling smile on her lips.

Fuck, I have to kiss her.

Her lips accept mine without hesitation. A long, chaste kiss. A promise of so much more.

Nate sighs. “You guys are so cute together.”

Laney and I laugh.

I settle back into my seat. “Well, it’s only fair you get a turn too.”

“Now, this could be setting a bad precedent.” Laney laughs but doesn’t resist a kiss from Nate’s lips too.

Her whole face is flushed, all the way down her neck. Her skin almost blends in with her dress. “We’ll never get anything done if I have to keep eye-for-an-eyeing with kisses.”

I grin. “That’s just fine with me.”

Laney takes her champagne in her hand but doesn’t sip it. Just eyes us over the rim of her glass.

“I have a gift for you both as well.” She bites her lower lip. “But it will have to wait until later.”

My dick hops to attention in my pants. “Jesus, Lane. You’re trying to kill us.”

She grins, a beautiful, angelic devil. “No, not at all. I’m just making up for lost time.”
