I shake my head. “Security showed up, but honestly, I was scared he might have.”
She nods. “Did you show him the video?”
“Nope. I was concerned about what he might have done to Keegan if I had.”
Natalie laughs softly. “Keegan could have handled himself. I don’t think you realize your ex-fiancé is not well liked, even by his so-called friends.”
A chair pulling out to my side startles me, and I jump away with my hand clutching at my chest. My brother drops into it with a smirk. “Ladies, thanks for the invite.”
“You weren’t invited,” Natalie says with a curled lip.
Nick steals a strawberry off my plate. “I know. You didn’t hear the fuck you between the lines?”
I roll my eyes, leaning forward and kissing his cheek. “What are you doing? How’d you find us?”
He nods toward my best friend. “She posted. I knew she wouldn’t eat alone.”
“I can eat alone,” Natalie spits out, crossing her arms.
I tilt my head. “Babe, I don’t think you’ve ever eaten out by yourself once. It’s not a bad thing. I wouldn’t want to do it. Let’s talk about how Nick just assumed it was me.”
He laughs. “As if the two of you have other friends you can tolerate long enough.”
Natalie and I exchange an amused glance, but we don’t acknowledge it out loud.
“Plus, I was in the neighborhood and figured I would warn you to dodge Mother’s calls for a few days,” my brother says, looking at me with concern.
I sigh. “I’m already not taking her calls. Let me guess. It’s about a certain son-in-law visiting my office.”
He nods, his eyebrows flickering. “What happened?”
I fill him in, getting irritated the longer I talk about it, and down another mimosa. Nick looks pissed when he hears how trashed my office was. I shrug because I already cleaned it up yesterday.
“We should list his phone number on Craigslist, saying he’s looking for a third. Post that one photo from Halloween,” Natalie says.
“People still use Craigslist?” I ask at the same time Nick asks, “What photo?”
Her eyes widen and she cackles. “Have you never seen thee photo, Nicky boy?”
“No,” I say, glaring at her before turning to my brother. “I’m sorry but you have a big mouth.”
Instead of being offended, he nods. “I do. My men love it.”
I scrunch my nose. “Please don’t.”
He smirks. “What photo?”
Pulling out my phone, I look through my notes app till I find the one I buried; the photo that Jared forced me to delete. I push it over to Nick. “One year, we all got hammered. Somehow we convinced him into a sexy bee costume, tights and heels too.”
Displayed on my screen is Jared spread eagle on a bed, his pale ass and balls on display through the thin tights.
Nick grimaces. “Well, there goes breakfast.”
“Oh, you wouldn’t fuck that?” I tease.
He gives me a pointed stare. “Not if we were the last people on earth and immaculate conception was guaranteed.”
Natalie snickers and grabs my phone. “I’m just saying I think it would go viral.”
