“Alright, shoot.” He didn’t hesitate for even a second.

“My car is still at the sandwich shop, and I don’t want it to get towed. I have Ford’s but I don’t want to swap it for mine, because I don’t want his to get towed either,” I explained.

“Oh, no problem. I’ll grab Rocco and we’ll pick it up for you. Can we grab you anything else while we’re out? Groceries or something?”

Wow, Elliot really might be the nicest guy I’d ever met.

I was officially feeling bad for my lie-by-omission. I’d have to come clean soon so my conscience cleared.

“I don’t have a fridge, so I’ll have to turn down the groceries, but it would be nice if you could pick up my new phone. It should be ready in about an hour.”

“Sure. Just text me the location, and I’ll grab it for ya. Thanks for letting us help you out with this stuff, Ebony. It means a lot to everyone.”

The words surprised me. “You’re the one doing me a favor. I should be thanking you.”

He chuckled. “Don’t worry about it. See you soon.” He hung up the phone, and I looked at Ford.

“Your friends are probably the nicest people I’ve ever met.”

He shrugged. “We’re family; we look out for each other.”

“Still, it’s really sweet.” I handed his phone over. “Let’s order that food. I’m starving.”

His lips curved upward. “I already did. It’ll be here in ten.”

I groaned. “I could kiss you for that.”

He flashed me a smirk. “Damn straight you could.”

I rolled my eyes, but couldn’t hide my smile.
