“You know I will.”

“Okay, who had an hour and a half?” Lucy asks, looking towards the door. We all turn and see the group of incredibly attractive men walking through the door.

“They should come with a warning sign when they’re all together,” I say to the girls, who nod their heads in agreement.

“I had an hour and a half,” Quinn says, fist-pumping the air. Megan hands the pot over to Quinn who sneaks it into her wallet right before the guys get to our table.

Each guy walks to their girl and grabs a chair, pulling it to the table. Except for Cooper who, as usual, lifts Quinn out of her chair and places her on his lap.

“Hey, there,” Tucker says, leaning in for a kiss. His soft lips on mine make me want to deepen the kiss, but since we’re surrounded by our friends, I pull back.

“Hi.” I grin at him.

“What was the money hand-off about?” Todd asks, looking at Megan.

“You caught that, huh?” she responds, a coy smile on her lips. All of the girls look at each other and start giggling.

“Just made a bet about what time you guys would show up. Quinn won, so she got the pot,” Megan explains.

“You bet on us?” Levi asks.

“Of course, we do! It’s a given you guys will show up, so sometimes we bet on how long it’ll take before you do,” Sara tells him.

“Sometimes or every time?” Max asks.

“Uh… all the time,” Lucy teases, a sheepish grin on her face.

“We’ve become predictable, men! This is unacceptable,” Levi grouses, making the girls laugh.

“How long until we can get out of here?” Tucker whispers in my ear, making chills run down my spine. I clench my thighs to stave off the bolt of lust.

“Soon, I’d say. Since you guys are here, we’ll all be ready to go home in a minute.”

Tucker nods his head, but the look in his eyes tells me he’s right on the edge of throwing me over his shoulder and carrying me out of here. A frown line pops up on his face, and he leans back to pull his phone out of his pocket. Uncle Jack pops up on the caller ID. It’s odd he would be calling this late.

Tucker answers despite the noise in the bar. Suddenly his eyes grow wide and he looks at me. The blood drains from his face, and I start to get nervous. I wait for Tucker to hang up before asking him what’s going on.

“Dad’s trailer caught on fire. They weren’t able to get there in time, and it’s gone. With him inside it.”
