He shoves one of the glass dishes into my hands. “There’s still time.”

Glad he’s distracted by the melting dessert, I step back and let him in.

And when I turn around to follow him into the room, Luke is no longer in sight.

Chapter 25

Luke

With the bottomhalf of my white T-shirt transparent, my pants dripping onto the floor, and my slip-on sandals full of water, I knock on the door to my room.

The only reason I have my phone on me is because it was already in my hand when she sent me her room number. But I didn’t bring my room key.

I also didn’t bring a condom.

I didn’t even pack condoms for this trip.

This wasn’t supposed to be that sort of vacation.

I knock a second time.

“Yeah, yeah,” Jacob says from the other side.

He pulls the door open a little, then all the way. “What the fuck?”

“Don’t ask.” I stride past him and right into the bathroom to strip off my wet clothes.

My Little Royal is eating hand-delivered ice cream in her suite, while I’m wet and cold in my shared room with my cousin asking me a million questions.

She definitely owes me.

Luke

“You son of a bitch,you did it.” I slap my hand down on Jacob’s back, swaying into him with the movement.

He grins at me, his eyes slightly glazed. “I’m a Mr. now!”

We both giggle. Like children. Then we clink our glasses of whiskey together and take another sip.

“I’m happy for you, man.” I let out a contented sigh. “I know I give you a lot of shit, but you’re a good guy. And she’s lucky to have you.”

“Nah.” Jacob shakes his head. “I’m the lucky one. But feel free to go tell her that anyway.”

I snort and take another drink. “I want her to keep liking me, so I’ll pass.”

Jacob hums as he nods. “She’d probably like you even more if we could go on double dates. So maybe you could go find that girl you’ve been obsessing over and make her fall in love with you.”

“Love is a big ask for one night.” I down the rest of my second drink. “But lust…” I take a step away from Jacob. “Speaking of which.” I reach into the breast pocket of my navy blue suit and pull out a little foil square. “I took your condom.”

His eyes move to my hand and widen. “That’s my wedding night condom!”

“I know.” I widen my eyes back. “You really should have brought more than one.”

“But—”

“Congrats again!” I wave the condom at him, then slip it back into my pocket. “I’m proud of you, man!” I back farther away from the outdoor dance floor.
