“Yeah,” Liam agrees.
“So put us out of our misery,” Conor says.
“We want a Jessie-cation,” Mikey proudly announces.
“A what now?” Shane asks with a frown as everyone else around the table looks at them in confusion.
Liam grins at his oldest brother. “Conor got the road trip from Arizona. You got your time alone in Ireland. Me and Mikey should get a trip with Jessie too.”
“A Jessie-cation!” Mikey declares and I can’t help but laugh.
“No way,” Shane says with a shake of his head.
“Shane!” the twins shout in unison.
“I think this is our cue to leave.” Em laughs softly and she stands. “Thank you so much for arranging all of this. It’s been wonderful to see you all.”
Shane gets up and walks around the table to give his aunt a hug.
“This discussion isn’t over,” Mikey says as everyone starts to say their goodbyes.
When Em, Aoife and Noel have left, we head back to the kitchen to start clearing up.
“We were serious about some time alone with Jessie,” Mikey says as he loads the dishwasher.
“A Jessie-cation?” I arch an eyebrow at him and he smiles at me.
“We’ve never had that and you both have,” Liam reminds his older brothers.
“They have a point, bro,” Conor says with a sigh.
“But…” Shane starts to say but then he looks at me. “What do you think?”
“It sounds good to me,” I admit. I mean I get a vacation and some time alone with the twins. What’s not to like?
“How many days?” Shane snaps as he stuffs his hands into his pockets.
“Well, you both had four and there’s two of us, so eight?” Mikey suggests.
“Fuck, no!” Conor snaps and I giggle.
“One!” Shane offers.
“Um. No,” Liam replies.
“How long then?” Mikey asks, his face serious now.
“Two?” Shane suggests.
“Fuck that, Shane. Be serious,” Mikey replies.
“Three?” Conor suggests.
“Four and it’s a deal,” Liam adds.
I jump up onto the kitchen counter and watch the four of them negotiating over me like I’m a car or something. I should probably hate it, but I don’t.
Shane narrows his eyes at them. “Where are you taking her, first?”
