I lifted an eyebrow at him. "Don't you need to get to the gym?"
"Yes." He nodded. "And just so you stop worrying, Finn texted and said Conor was at the gym waiting to kick my ass."
He threw on a pair of gym shorts and a tank.
That explained why he didn't answer my text; he would not have his phone out on the mats. Ryan continued talking as he slipped on socks and sneakers. "Fuck, Conor is going to kick my ass today. It's never a good day when Conor is in the octagon with me."
"I don't care if Conor kicks my ass today," he said, giving me a kiss goodbye. "But you better be in this bed when I get home, woman."
“We will see about that,” I replied, then tilted my head.
As soon as Ryan left, I sprawled out on the bed with my thoughts.
Conor has always been impulsive.
The man never thinks before he reacts.A sigh left my lips.He's just like our dad.
He has always been extremely protective of the people he cared about, and he'd do anything he needed to for his family.
Damn.I’m worried about him.He's gonna to take his aggression out on someone innocent—Ryan.
I was so thankful that Chrissy had gone after him yesterday. There was no telling what kind of mess he could have made. I wouldn't have put it past him to storm into the police station or even the district attorney's office.
Sorry, Ryan, but it looks like you'll be taking Conor's aggression today.
An idea came to me, and I opened my phone and began a group message to my brothers, Ryan, and Chrissy.
Me: I've got an idea . . .
Me: Now that things are starting to settle down, and I'm home.
Me: It's been a long time since we made some good family memories!
Me: Let's start having a family dinner once a week.
Me: All of us together!
Me: We can start next week.
Me: What does everyone think?
I dropped my head to the pillow and waited for their responses. It only took a few minutes before my phone dinged. I brought it up and saw Finn was the first to respond.
Finn: Fuck yes!
I replied with a heart emoji, and then Finn sent another response.
Finn: Ryan and Conor are in.
Finn: Just waiting on you, Chrissy!
I smiled, knowing we could now move on. I didn't have to worry about any charges, and Brad was gone and out of my life. I could finally breathe and focus on all the good in my life.
Starting with Ryan!
We could focus on being together and starting our life as a couple. And that would start with me moving in with him.
A year ago, I would never have imagined Ryan and me together. I was done wasting time. We had both been through so much, and I just wanted us to move forward together.
