“So Henry said he wants to take you away for the weekend next month,” Jennifer says, taking a sip of her cranberry and vodka.
“What?” I nearly shout.
“Yep, he wants it to be a surprise so you better not let on I told you.” She points a finger at me sternly.
“Oh, hell yes. Regan is going to get a kiss on both lips,” Holly cheers.
He wants to take me away? Yikes, I don’t know about that. How can I avoid things when I can’t rush home? He
’s going to expect things, and I’m not sure I can do that.
“Where?” I ask.
“My parents’ have a vacation house in the Virgin Islands, so he’s going to take you there. It’s beautiful, you’ll love it there. The water is so blue and the house sits right along the shore,” Jennifer replies, and even with the loud music in the bar her voice is echoing in my head.
“You lucky whore. You are going to get laid in the clear blue water of the Virgin Islands. You are going to scare the fish for damn sure,” Holly laughs.
I force a laugh and toss back the rest of my drink. “I’m sure,” I say. What that hell am I saying?
“Please stop, it’s my brother,” Jennifer moans.
“You don’t want to hear about Regan sucking his cock so good in your parents’ bed that his screams echo through the house?” Holly says, laughing hysterically.
Even though it’s not something I want to think about, I can’t help but burst out laughing. Especially when Jennifer’s eyes bug out and her mouth drops open.
“Alright enough, Jennifer is going to have a coronary,” I say, using her as a scape goat.
“Fine. Hey, has Tenn made you any more romantic dinners?” Holly asks, getting that dreamy look in her eyes.
Jennifer dips her brows, and I kick Holly under the table. Fucking idiot. “Tenn made you a romantic dinner? When?”
“No, no. He just made me dinner. Nothing romantic about it at all. Hell, we need to eat, right,” I say, forcing a laugh.
She studies me and turns her head to Holly. “Why’d you say it was romantic?”
Fuck, fuck, fuck.
“Ummm it was with Tenn, anything with him is romantic. I mean watching him sleep is romantic. Like I don’t know how Regan sleeps in the same bed as him sometimes.”
I’m going to fucking kill her.
“What?” Jennifer screams. “You’re cheating on my brother with Tenn?”
“I am not. Holly is making a big deal out of nothing. Tenn and I eat dinner together, we live together. Yes, I’ve slept in his bed before, a very long time ago, long before I met your brother. And just so we are all clear, I’ve never done anything with Tenn. I’ve never kissed him or anything.” I try to clear my name for no reason at all.
“You need to tell my brother this shit. It’s not cool, Regan.”
“She doesn’t need to tell your brother shit. We live together, we’ve been friends a hell of a lot longer than you and her. She’s my go to and I’m hers. If your brother has a problem with any of that, tell him to come talk to me,” Tenn says, coming out of nowhere.
It has to be one of the sexiest things ever. Him being all alpha male, defending me. “Tenn, where the hell did you come from?” I ask.
“I’m always around when you need me,” he says with a wink.
“So, you stalk her now?” Jennifer asks with anger in her voice.
He pulls a chair over to the table and rests his arms on it. “Jennifer, do you have a problem with me?”
“I have a problem with you coming between my brother and Regan,” she says, jetting out her chin.
