“You okay, babe?”

Leaning into him, I press my hands against his chest. He wraps his arms around me and just being close to him like this helps calm me down. “I’m fine. Thanks for making me smile.”

“You don’t look fine. Well, you always look fine. But you don’t seem fine. Whose ass do I need to kick, Lemon?”

“You going to kick my mom’s ass?” I ask with a begrudging laugh.

“No, but I could give her a serious talking to for whatever she did to you. Really lay down the law here.”

“I’d actually kind of like to see that. I can’t picture you giving a serious talking to… to anyone.”

“That’s it. We’re doing this.” Jameson grabs my hand and starts tugging me towards the kitchen.

“No. No. Absolutely not. We just got into a fight. It’s stupid. It’ll blow over. I don’t want to talk about it.”

Jameson keeps tugging on my hand.

“Jameson, please stop.”

He stops so suddenly that I knock into his back. When he turns around to face me, he grabs my arms. “Shit. Sorry. You okay?”

“I’m fine. I just don’t think today is my day. All I want to do is go home and go to bed. Try again tomorrow.”

“I’m okay with the first half of that.”

“Correction. I should go home and go to sleep. And try again tomorrow.”

“Where’s the fun in that, babe?”

“Not everything in life is fun.”

“Shit, Lemon. If you’re going to make me wanting to fuck you into a lecture about me being immature, I’m going to kiss you right in the middle of your mom’s house to shut you up. Just giving you fair warning.”

Narrowing my eyes, I frown up at him. “You’re annoying.”

“That’s better. You know how much I love annoying you, babe. Now, how are we going to turn that frown upside down? We could go back to your place where you know I can put a satisfied smile on that face. Or do you want to stay for dinner here and eat something first?”

“Why do you have to be so sweet and reasonable? Can you please just be an immature asshole so I don’t have to feel like an immature brat all by myself?”

“The whole time I’ve been working on this door, I’ve been thinking about coming all over your tits later.”

I burst out laughing. “There it is.” Staring up at him, I smile. “Thanks.”

“Anytime, babe.” He rubs his thumb over my bottom lip until it curves into an even bigger smile. “There it is.”

I don’t want to need him like this. But I just… do. I can’t help it. Jameson is nothing like I expected. He’s not what I thought I was supposed to want. But somehow he’s exactly right for me. How does he always know what I need even when I don’t?

“So, we’re staying?”

“We have to eat, right?”

“We definitely need sustenance for what I have planned for you later. I hope you’ve been thinking about how I’m going to spank your pussy when we get home. Because I have.”

“What have you done to me, Jameson Waters? You drive me completely crazy, and I can’t get enough.”

“Did you just say something extra nice to me, Lemon? I wish I knew what I did so I could do it again.”

“You don’t need me to tell you what you did. Because you’ll do it again, anyway.” Pressing up on my tiptoes, I slide my hands up Jameson’s shirt. He pulled out all the stops for dinner tonight. Wearing a proper button-down shirt with his best jeans and cowboy boots, instead of work boots. I’ve wanted to rip all of it off of him and fuck him ever since he put it on. My hands press against the hard line of his jaw, and I bring his head down to mine. And I kiss my best friend’s little brother—I kiss the man I love—in the middle of my mom’s house.
