“You’re going to let him talk to me like that?” I look at Stone.

“Now you want me to talk for you?” He smirks, then looks back at Zoey.

“Who the fuck is she talking to?” He puts his hand over his eyes to shade the sun so he can look at the guy about six foot one with brown hair, wearing shorts that go to mid-thigh and an open button-down linen shirt.

“I think that’s Nash,” Romeo says.

“Who the fuck is Nash?” Stone asks, his eyes staying on Zoey as she puts her head back and laughs.

“He’s Caine’s brother,” Romeo replies like he should know who Nash is.

“Who the fuck is Caine?” Stone asks, not moving a muscle as he watches them interact.

“Sofia’s cousin Grace’s husband’s brother,” Gabriella informs us, using her hand to go through the people. “He got here last night.”

“Why is he so close to her?” Stone wonders out loud as Nash leans in to tell her something in her ear and puts his hand on her arm.

“Not fun, right?” Romeo teases, and I look at him and roll my lips. “Imagine sharing a wall.”

“Oh, stop, it wasn’t that bad,” Gabriella says, laughing.

“We changed rooms at two o’clock in the morning,” Romeo sneers.

“Well, if you would have taken care of your woman”—I cock my hip to the side—“then you wouldn’t have had time to listen to us.”

“It sounded like you were using a megaphone,” Romeo declares, getting up. “Right there! Right there! Right there!” He tries to mimic me.

Stone claps his hands together and laughs. “She was on the bed fully clothed and thought we were having sex.”

“We did!” I gasp.

“Gorgeous, I was in the shower, and when I came out, you asked me if it was just as good for me.” He grabs my hips and pulls me to him. “You were also half on the bed and half on the floor.”

I don’t bother answering him because my parents join us.

“Oh my God, we thought you guys were never going to come out of your room,” my father says, wearing just shorts and sipping something from a pineapple. “It’s almost dinner.”

I roll my eyes, but no one can see me since they’re covered. “Honey, leave them alone.” My mother sits at the end of the bed, wearing her own bikini and cover-up. “Remember when we first got together?” She snickers. “We stayed in the room for twenty-four hours straight.”

“I’m going to be sick.” Romeo sits up, putting his hand on his stomach.

“What?” my mother shrieks and takes a drink from her own pineapple. “It’s not a crime for us to have fun with each other.” She looks over at my father and winks.

“Is there any sweet tea left?” I turn to Stone. “I need to pour it in my eyeballs and hope it goes to my brain.”

He just laughs as he kisses me. “I’m going to eat.” He looks at Romeo, who shrugs and gets up to join him.

“Wait for me,” my father calls, joining them as they walk over to the food.

“Move.” I push Gabriella, who moves over to the other side. “I’m exhausted.”

“I thought you were going to rest and relax.” My mother looks at me. “You start your new job as soon as you go back.” In the past two months, I’ve completely moved to Nashville. The day after we got back together, Stone and I went back to Chicago, where I packed up all my clothes and made the move.

“I was celebrating getting a new job, Mother.” I take off the tank top I had on. A week after I moved in with Stone, although I already had the job, I went in for a formal interview. It was strange when you get a job and are like, I already have a family vacation planned. They didn’t even bat an eye and expect me in the office as soon as I return. I never thought I would be excited about family law, but I’m looking forward to it. But more importantly, I’m excited to be with Stone.

Five minutes later, Stone comes back with a plate for me. “Here you go, gorgeous.” He hands me a plate with a loaded burger and some fries, then a bottle of water. “I’m going to eat with my cousins.”

“Okay,” I say as he kisses me before bending to kiss my neck. “Have fun.”
