My jaw tightened.
“Let me have a second to think,” April said.
She walked to a random cabinet and opened it.
She screamed at the top of her lungs as a family of cockroaches scattered up the door, looking for somewhere else to hide in the dark.
Auggie hated bugs.
She kept screaming as she lunged for me.
Next thing I knew, she was in my arms and I was hurrying through the apartment.
Time to get out of there before we caught some disease.
“Wait!” Rick cried out after us. “I need an answer! I have a lot of people who want this place!”
As I carried April in my arms, we looked at each other.
She started to laugh.
“What’s so funny,Auggie?” I growled.
“That place was so gross,” she said.
When we got back to my SUV, I opened the passenger door and put her on her feet.
She blushed. “Thanks for the lift.”
“Hey,” I said. “You’re staying with me. You have no choice. Got it?”
“I don’t take very well to being bossed around,Sebby,” she whispered.
I lowered myself down to her.
Almost as though I was going to kiss her.
She gasped.
“I don’t care, April,” I said. “You’re staying with me. End of conversation.”
She got into the passenger seat with a scowl on her face.
She may have turned into a beautiful, curvy woman…
… but she was still the same pain in the ass as she always was.

My laptop open.
Earbuds in my ears.
Papers on the coffee table.
Folders semi-organized.
