Chloe was getting angrier, the more she spoke, and I didn’t blame her. But I also didn’t want her to do something she’d regret.
“Is Savannah here?”
“No. She’s lucky, or I’d kill her.”
I winced. That was what I was afraid of.
“How about we finish bringing your stuff inside, and then we’ll figure out where you go from there?”
Chloe looked over to where I was standing, still holding the cooler. “Oh my God. I’m sorry.” She motioned me toward the kitchen. “You can set it down on the counter.” She snatched up her luggage handle. “I’m going to put this in my room really quick.”
I nodded to let her know I understood and headed toward the kitchen. I opened the cooler and removed her half of the food. Once I had everything out, I started putting it away as Chloe came out of her room.
“You don’t have to do that, Liam.”
I ignored her as I opened the fridge. “So, what are you going to do for real?”
Her brow furrowed. “What do you mean?”
“Well, I hope you’re not really going to kill your roommate. So, what are you going to do?”
She snorted. “I don’t know. I feel bad, kicking her out, but my house is small, and I didn’t buy it with the intention of living with a roommate.”
“You can move in with me.”
Chloe laughed and smacked my arm. “You’re funny. Thanks for the laugh.”
Too bad I was half-serious even though I fully understood it was way too soon to move in together.
She put her hand on her hip. “No, I’m just going to have to sit Savannah down and talk to her. Calmly and rationally tell her that I have boundaries and that she just crossed a major one.”
I tried to think of all the people I knew to see if someone else might need a roommate. “I think I might have an idea.”
Chloe’s brow shot up. “Really? And you’re just telling me this now? I would have slept with you days ago if you had led with that.”
It was my turn to laugh. I kissed her on the cheek and grabbed the cooler off the counter. “Let me get back to you,” I said as I headed to the door, my mind on helping Chloe.
“Wait.”
I stopped in the living room and turned.
She rushed over to me, grabbed my face, and kissed me. “Thank you. And if you don’t come up with anything, it’s okay. I’ll still let you get in my pants.” She looked away with a blush. “If you still want to, that is.”
I grinned. “Of course I do. Just because the trip is over doesn’t mean we are.”
She turned her eyes back to me, and she smiled.
“I’d better go.”
She patted my chest. “Right, right. Let me know what you find out.”
I kissed her again. “Will do.”
I hurried outside, put the cooler in the back, and grabbed my cell as I got behind the wheel.
“McNally.”
“Hey, it’s Liam.”
