I’m just about to suggest it when my office door flies open, and my sister walks in unannounced. Not that I would expect anything less of her.
“Really? Is this what it will be like from now on?” She motions to where Lauren is standing between my legs and my hands still on her ass.
I can see from the corner of my eye, Lauren’s cheeks flush.
“Consider it payback for me entering your office when Chase stops by.” I laugh, never actually having caught my sister and her husband in a compromising position. Thank God.
Lauren tries to pull away, but I keep her close.
“Whatever.” She rolls her eyes at me before turning to Lauren and smiling. “Hey, Lauren, it’s always a pleasure to see you.”
I scoff, dropping my forehead to Lauren’s shoulder. “It would be a pleasure if you hadn’t interrupted. I told Natasha not to have anyone disturb us.”
“Ha!” She throws her head back in laughter. “Silly brother. Don’t you realize that that doesn’t apply to me? I’m your sister, so I do what I want.”
She shrugs, and I can feel the vibrations of Lauren’s body from her laughter, watching us interact.
I pull her tight against his body. “And yes, Kels, this is something you should get used to. Lauren and I aren’t going anywhere.”
Kelsey yanks Lauren out of my arms so fast that I worry she got whiplash, pulling her into a hug. “It’s about time my brother got his head out of his ass. I’m so happy for you.” When she releases Lauren, she claps her hands together. “Oh my God, you need to come over for dinner. I know Chase is dying to meet the girl who had my brother a hot mess for years. And I know Finn has probably been blowing up your phone with tons of photos of Liam, so you could finally meet him too. Finn is such a softie when it comes to him.”
“Kels,” I warn.
She waves me off. “Whatever, Finn, I’ll just save all the juicy details for later.” She turns back to Lauren and uses her whisper-yell voice. “We’ll talk later, Laur,” she says, just to get a rise out of me. While I’m not sure what they will talk about, I love the idea of the two of them being close again. We both come from a tight-knit family, and it’s important to bo
th of us.
“Umm, don’t you have work to do?” I quirk an eyebrow at my sister, hoping she gets the point to leave.
“Actually, yes, I do. So, Lauren, I’ll see you soon, right?”
“Yes, that’d be great. I look forward to it.” Lauren waves, reluctantly stepping out of my grasp. No, that’s the opposite of what I want, especially with Kelsey now leaving.
“Yay!” Kelsey jumps in excitement. “I’ll let Chase know, and we can find a night when he’s not at the station. You two have fun.”
I groan as she exits, leaving the door wide open.
I turn to find Lauren sitting in my office chair. “So, a softie, huh?” she teases.
I walk around her and spin the chair so she is facing me and brace myself on the arms of the chair. “Baby, you know there is nothing soft about me.”
Her eyes drift to my crotch, and I smirk.
I am just about to press my lips to hers when there is a knock on the door. I close my eyes and huff out a breath before turning to find Natasha standing there. “Sorry to interrupt, but I have a Jaxon McAdams on the phone. He said he had been trying to reach you on your cell, but you didn’t answer.”
“Oh, okay. I don’t even know where my phone is. Send him on through.”
Lauren leans over the desk and hands me my phone, showing three missed calls from Jax. “Oh, thanks, babe.” My office phone rings.
I pick up the phone. “Hey, Jax, hold on a second.”
“Sure.”
I place the call on hold and turn to Lauren, getting up from the chair.
“I should get going. I’ll see you later?” I nod as she leans up and kisses me. I’ve been staying over Lauren’s most nights, really only going home for clothes. We haven’t talked much on the subject of moving in. Yes, we lived together once before, but she hasn’t approached the issue yet. But then again, neither have I. Things are going amazing right now.
I watch her leave and chuckle as she walks past Natasha’s desk and waves with a smile on her face, but I know Lauren’s sweet smile and that was definitely not a sweet smile. I can’t hold back my laugh as I take the call off hold and sit in the chair Lauren had just been in.
