I look at Eli.

Then Noah.

Both are fighting laughter.

“Okay, guys.”

I pat their knees.

“You gotta move.”

Noah sighs dramatically.

“Already?”

“Yeah.”

I look at Kane.

“Make room for my man over here.”

Chaos.

Absolute chaos.

Jalen gets to his feet.

“HER MAN.”

“After one date?”

“Kane Haverhill got locked down at a bookstore.”

“Somebody check on Krista.”

Kane’s grin is so smug now I want to take it back.

I point at all of them.

“Calm yourselves.”

“You said my man,” Eli says.

“It was contextual.”

“Sounded definitive.”

“Fine.”

I scoot sideways as Noah and Eli finally move.

Kane sits beside me.

Immediately.

His thigh presses against mine.

His arm goes along the back of the couch.
