I shook hands with River too.
“Music to my ears,” Reese replied.“But we’re thinkin’…throw some burgers on the grill first?We have a shit-ton of stories about Lucas to share with you.”
“I swear to Christ!”Luke exclaimed.
Greer cracked up.“Let’s start with the time he whined in his Chinese food about how he’d be the last of us to meet someone.”
Oh, this was gold already.Pure fucking gold.
I threw an arm around Luke’s shoulders and kissed the side of his head.“I wanna hear every story.”
“That’s what I’m afraid of,” he muttered.
“Can I first get the story about how there are absolutely no more snakes inside the house?”Macklin hollered.
Reese was already back inside, but he had no problem raising his voice.“We don’t give spoilers in this house, subbie!”
“I’m a switch!”was Macklin’s argument.

My man is home where he belongs.
I fucking was.And that was a great picture of us, just chilling on the front porch at Mclean.Me with my arm around him, and him with a dopey smile aimed at me.
“Come back to bed, darlin’,” I called.“We’re not done.”
“Be there in a minute!I’m ordering breakfast.”
I yawned and stretched out across the mattress.Breakfast sounded great.

“Can everyone come here and approve their profiles?”I hollered, repositioning the laptop across my lap.“West needs them so he can finalize the website.Oh, and pizza’s here!”
Since I was severely injured, I couldn’t move from the couch.
