Instead of finishing “solo,” Koa turns the “o” into “Okay.”
“Not real good at board games and shit, but if you have a gaming system, I’m down.” JT opens the back passenger door, and I move to climb in.
Koa steps in front of me. “You’re in the front.”
“Got it. I’m in the front.” I walk around the back of the Tahoe, and when I round it, I see Theo standing beside the open door with flowers in his hand. “What is this?”
“Flowers that have been in my vehicle since I came over, in hopes to grab you and take you out.”
“Thank you.” I hold the daisies, gerbera daisies, carnations, roses, and all in various shades of pink, to my nose and inhale.
Theo shakes his head. “Can’t smell them, can you?”
I climb in. “Maybe tomorrow.”
“You sick?” JT asks.
“I gave her a bloody nose earlier today,” Theo jokes.
“In lieu of flowers,” I add.
Koa leans forward and gets all up in my face. “You wanna give that a little more depth?”
Theo climbs in the driver’s seat and looks him over. “You good?”
“Need the story behind you giving Riley a bloody nose.”
I snort-laugh, and the way Theo looks at me and starts to laugh is like the sweetest.
“It’s a really long story, so Riley, sum it up.”
I give him the condensed version—well, sort of—all the way back to the house.
As we all pile out of the Tahoe, I’m holding the flowers, feeling now is actually the right time to tell Theo about the slap.
“I called him a dick, he then called me a puck bunny. That’s when I slapped him.”
“He called you what?” Theo hisses through clenched teeth.
I place a hand on my hip and point my beautiful bouquet of flowers at him. “You don’t get to be pissed, because I’m not.” I bring the flowers back to me. “I know who I am. I earned that by calling him when he was pissed and I was toying with his boy’s emotions.”
Koa and JT both start laughing, and Theo glares at them.
“You puck boys shouldn’t judge the girls you call bunnies, the ones you stick your dicks in. It takes two, you know, and women have needs just like you all do.” I look him up and down, lift my nose in the air, and then march my ass toward the front steps, feeling quite proud of myself.
As I take the second step up the stairs, I feel hands grip my hips, stopping me and keeping me right there as JT and Koa make their way past us and into the house.
He turns me around, and I am high enough up that we’re eye-to-eye.
“You can’t weaponize my signs of affection against me.”
“Huh?” I ask, and my heart starts beating faster as he moves closer while licking his incredibly sexy and, might I add, skillful lips.
“You pointed the flowers at me. I got them for you as a sign of affectio—”
“Right. I get it,” cutting him off, I nod.
“Then we agree?”
