It was a hot night and one she would hold close to herheart.“I didn’t make it up.Master K did.”
The elevator opened again, and she hesitated.
Bobby snorted.“They’re all in bed.I assure you.Mirandachecked a couple of hours ago.She said Josh and Grim and Nicole are happilyensconced in the honeymoon suite.Your parents are in theirs.It’s across fromGigi and Miranda’s.She said they seemed to be interested in spending timetogether.”
So her parents had their own wild night.She walked out ofthe elevator.“It’s not that I’m actually ashamed.But if my mother knows I spentthe night with two guys, she’ll think I’ve finally decided to settle down.Howweird is that?My parents generally think if I’m with one guy, I’m foolingaround because every woman should have to deal with two guys.”
“Well, your brother did prove that point.Hey, at least yourparents won’t tell you that your love life is a sin and you’re going to hell,”Bobby quipped.“My parents were fine with me and Will marrying you, but I’mworried me being gay is a bridge too far.”
She stopped and turned to him.“You need to give them thechance.I know over the years they haven’t been super supportive, but theyadjusted.They didn’t want you to leave Colorado, didn’t understand why youneeded so much school.They didn’t understand your jobs, but they went to graduation.They celebrated you.Maybe not the way you wanted, but the way they could give.So tell them.Give them a chance to prove you wrong.”
“And if they don’t?”
“Well, my momma will be perfectly happy to take you in.Thatwoman loves to bring in strays.Ask Grim.”She used the key card to get intoher room.
And was immediately faced with Gigi Dawson and MirandaMcNamara-O’Malley, who was still in a pair of pajama bottoms and a tank topwith bunny slippers on her feet.
And they already had mimosas.They held up champagneglasses.
“Welcome back, you slutty thing,” Gigi said with a grin.Shewas dressed in leggings and a T-shirt and sneakers.She had already been outfor a run.Gigi was a trauma nurse, and she was practically perfect.
For a few moments Olivia had been perfect for two guys.
Gigi’s expression fell.“Unless it was terrible.I’m sosorry.Was it terrible?”
“I think it was the opposite,” Miranda commented.
Olivia had to take a deep breath.“It was good.Excellent,really.But it was pretty intense.They’re tops.”
Gigi nodded.“Oh, yeah.I might have asked a couple ofquestions.”
“I swear she’s spent too much time with her cousin,” Mirandaexplained.
Gigi had many cousins.She was from a big family so theywere numerous, but Olivia knew exactly which one they were talking about now.“Harlow?I do not need a private investigator to look into two guys I won’t seeagain.”
Harlow Dawson was a badass PI.She had used Harlow’sservices many times.This would not be one of them.
“But,” Gigi began, and she had that expression that toldOlivia she had excellent gossip.Normally that was a good thing.It wasn’t thismorning.
“I want to hold on to the perfection of last night,” Oliviaexplained.“I can’t do that if I know who they are.Let me keep them as MasterK and Master G.Maybe someday I’ll want to know, but not today.”
She looked around.There was a whole breakfast buffet setup, and she remembered what she hadn’t before.It had slipped her mind.Gigiand Miranda were hosting a breakfast for Josh and Nicole and Grim in Olivia’ssuite, since it was the biggest.
They had to do it early since the happy threesome had aplane to catch at nine.
It was supposed to be a casual come-and-go kind of thingstrictly for family and close friends.
And it was starting soon.
All thoughts of the two hot guys she spent the night withfled.Well, the sexy parts.The part where she was in her maid of honor dresswith her hair down and makeup smudged did not.
“My parents are going to be here soon.I have to change,”she whispered more to herself than anyone else.
“Damn, sister, you need to change.”Josh walked into theliving area holding Nicole’s hand.“If you don’t and Momma sees you like that,she’s going to start planning a wedding.”
“Dad might start planning a funeral.”Grim joined them.Hedidn’t pretend anymore.He didn’t call them Mr.Barnes or Mr.Fleetwood.“Popswill want to know where the popcorn is.You know he loves a good family drama.Did Miranda’s brothers finally get their shot at you, Livie?”
Her brothers were obnoxious and she loved them.Grim wouldnever make her feel ashamed for having a wild night.Josh would cover for herwith their parents like he had a hundred times before.
