I don’t know how to respond, so I just remain silent. Luckily for me, Evan speaks.
“Alright, goodnight, Gram, I’ll call you tomorrow.”
“Goodnight, Evan and Chelsea.”
I wave and take a few steps down, returning to Evan’s car.
Reaching his car, I expect him to do what he always does and open the door for me. But tonight, he pushes me against thecar. His hands on my hips as he presses his body against mine. My body has memorized his so it already softens beneath him, succumbing to him, like it knows he will give it the pleasure it’s seeking.
“You killed it in there.”
“I did?” Nothing I said or did stands out. I’m lost.
“You just fit in so easily.”
I blink up at him, trying to understand why that’s so special. “She’s so easy to get along with.”
“She means the world to all of us.”
“I can tell she’s special,” I breathe out as he leans in and kisses my cheek.
“She is, but so are you.” He kisses my lips briefly before saying, “Now good girls should be rewarded.”
“I thought I was naughty.” I lift my eyebrow in a silent challenge.
“Get in that car before I do something that will cause my gram to whip me with her wooden spoon.”
I laugh. “You guys are petrified of her.”
“You have no idea. Growing up, she was the boss.”
She still is, I want to say, but instead, I keep it light.
“Get me back to yours so you can show me who’s the boss.”
A sexy smirk settles on his lips. “Now we’re talking.”
Chapter 23
Chelsea
I arrive home tofind Nova visiting. Summer and Nova both turn to look at me as I enter.
Their faces are bright with curiosity.
“What are you girls doing?” I ask, though I suspect they’re here to find out about my time with Evan.
“Nothing, we're just wondering where you’ve been.”
I drag out a chair and sit down, noticing the teacups in front of them.
“Well, I’ve been officially dating Evan.”
“I fucking knew it,” Summer shouts, causing me to giggle.
Nova smiles knowingly at me. Now that they’re eager for my news, it adds to my excitement. I can't wipe the smile off my face.
“It’s so good,” I say, trying to downplay the flutters in my stomach when I think of Evan.
