“I already gathered that since you brought her on a road trip to your sister’s wedding. Tell me something I don’t know.”

“Like what?”

I raise my eyebrows at him waiting for him to talk.

“Shit, RJ, I’m not a chick. What the hell do you want to know?”

“How do you feel about her?”

“Did you seriously ask me how I feel? Not sure I’m comfortable with that conversation. Like I said, she’s cool. She’s smart and passionate about things she believes in. I enjoy spending time with her. But she’s so damn shy. I can make her blush just by kissing her. She’s met our whole family, and I have yet to meet anyone in hers.”

“Like you said she’s shy.”

“Yeah, but it’s always me making a move. Even when we’re in public, she won’t even hold my hand unless I grab hers first. It’s like she’s embarrassed.”

“Okay, let me fill you in on something. It’s not you. Ember told me herself that guys have always overlooked her. Girls have never been that accepting of her, so she’s insecure. You need to talk to her and continue to tell her how much you like her. Coming from a woman, not your sister, we want to be reassured. She needs a little push. And don’t forget that you and the guys are a little intimidating. You’re good looking and confident. I remember how Abbi acted when she first met Jimi, look at how that turned out.”

“Are you kidding me? Why would anyone overlook her?”

“I don’t know but let me know if you want me to talk to her. You’re bringing her tomorrow night right?”

“Yeah, she’s coming.”

“Great, then make her feel special and I bet you’ll see her open up.”

“Can’t we quit talking about this shit now? I’m pretty sure we’ve crossed into heavy chick territory.”

“Yep, but know I really like her.”

“Me too.”

Our sweaty bodies stick together as we try to catch our breath. I try to shift over, but he tightens his hold on my ass and keeps me in place.

“Don’t move, I need a minute.”

“I don’t want to move at all. As far as I’m concerned we can stay this way all night.”

“Don’t tease.”

“I’m not.”

“Thank you for this weekend, Sparkle.”

“Anything for you, I’m glad you had fun.”

Earlier tonight we met all our friends at a bar near downtown. We wanted somewhere small and low-key so we could celebrate without Sayge being recognized. It was more of a pub with pool tables. We split into teams, and I was paired with Tripp, which led to a lot of laughs. He took every chance he could to goad Declan.

I watched Robbie and Ember and even though she was still quiet, she was affectionate. They were small g

estures, but Robbie seemed happy.

I drove tonight so Declan could drink as much as he wanted. The guys did shots from the minute we walked in the door until last call. We ended up bringing Nate home with us, and Declan helped him to the guest room. He passed out before he hit the bed.

Lucky for me, Declan wasn’t that drunk, and he decided to get creative. I was in the bathroom getting dressed when he came up behind me and tore off my black nightie. Then he guided me over the counter and bent me over slightly.

“Baby, I want you right here, right now. And I want you to watch.”
