“I’ll call my attorney today, and he’ll meet with you tomorrow,” Shaun said. “He’ll get it done quickly.”
“Thanks, Shaun. I appreciate it.”
We surfed for a while, and then Gabriel and I headed back to our houses.
“Looks like Ava is enjoying the pool.” Gabriel smiled. “You should join her.”
“I think I might. I’ll see you later, bro. Um, who is that chick sitting on your patio?”
“Shit. She said she was leaving.”
“You brought a girl home last night and didn’t tell me?” I narrowed my eye at him.
“I didn’t have a chance.”
“What’s her name?” I asked him.
“I can’t remember, bro.” He chuckled. “Now, I have to be the bad guy and kick her out. I have no idea why she’s still there.”
“Good luck. Yell if you need help.” I smiled. I set my board down and jumped in the pool.
“Who’s that girl over at Gabriel’s?” Ava wrapped her arms around my neck.
“I have no idea. He thought she left already.”
“Oh. She said good morning to me. She seems nice.”
“You won’t see her again.” The corners of my mouth curved upward. “What do you want to do today?” My lips met hers.
“I have to go back to my apartment and grab a few things.”
“Has Hannah found an apartment yet?” I asked.
“She said she’s still looking. I honestly don’t know what is taking her so long to find one.”
“Sublet your apartment to her and permanently move in with me.”
“Are you sure?” She smiled.
“Positive. You’re already here, and I do not intend to let you return to your place.”
“So, you’re holding me hostage here?”
“You bet I am.” A smirk crossed my lips.
“There’s no other place in the world I’d rather be held hostage at.”
“Good. Then we’ll get the rest of your things later. But first, I have something going on down there that needs to be taken care of.”
CHAPTER37
Ava
After meeting with a couple of my clients, I returned to my apartment to finish packing. My phone pinged, and when I grabbed it, I had a text message from Grayson.
“Hey, babe. I just met with Shaun’s lawyer, and he’s going to file the restraining order against Claudia.”
“That’s great news. I’m at my apartment packing the last few things.”
