As first kisses went with a woman, I could say I was all on board to do it again and again and again. Even watching Rommy and Kayson making out flooded me with heat.
Biting my bottom lip, I wished we were somewhere else.
A place we could be alone.
Thankfully, we’d called Dodge and Low about us flying over. We’d had time for a shower and change of clothes to wash the plane ride away before we saw Rommy. It also meant we could have Rommy for the day since they’d made sure she was covered with work.
At the thought of the phone call with Rommy’s parents, I smiled.
Nerves fluttered my stomach as I watched Quake put his phone on speaker while it rang and rang.
“Since it’s mornin’ here, I’m gonna think that you’re not checkin’ on Rommy at a club,” Dodge answered.
Kayson and I shared a look, and I waved frantically for him to say something while he gave me wide eyes.
It was then I realised it would’ve been great if we’d planned what we were going to say instead of just jumping the gun.
There was a sigh before Dodge asked, “I can hear two people breathin’ so I’m guessin’ Eve’s there too. Please fuckin’ tell me you two have pulled your heads out of your arses to see that Rommy is someone amazin’ you can’t do without?”
Kayson and I stared at each other. I swallowed thickly and said, “Yes?”
“You don’t sound certain.”
Kayson quickly added, “We are. It’s just new, but we want to make sure, which is why we’re comin’ to Australia.”
“And if I said stay the fuck away from her?” he asked.
“No,” I blurted. “Sorry, but we can’t, and I don’t think she’d want us to either.”
He grunted. “Text me your flight details, I’ll have a couple of brothers pick you two up. Names are Knife and Beast. I’ll make sure she gets away from work, but you come to the compound. I need to see that my girl wants this.”
Now I was certain Dodge understood that Rommy wanted this with us. She was willing to try.
When Kayson pulled back, they both smiled at each other, and it warmed my heart.
“We’re gonna steal you away for the day,” Kayson told her.
She spun around to her father, and he said, “Your mum and I have already cleared your schedule. The brothers are takin’ on your clients while they’re in town.”
My belly rolled.
Kayson and I’d eventually go back to America. Would Rommy want to come with us or… could Kayson and I live in Australia with her?
It was something we’d have to figure out.
The step we’d taken with coming here, though, to add Rommy into the relationship, was the right choice to make. I knew it to the very tips of my toes. Rommy was meant to be with us.
Since she’d left, there was a Rommy-sized hole in our lives.
What Kayson and I already had was amazing, but I believed adding Rommy would take us to a new level. One that would be full of love, life, and laughs.
Rommy clapped and danced on the spot, beaming at me. “While you’re here, I can take you both to so many places. We’ll have so much to do and talk about, and… Gah. I’m overwhelmed with happiness.” She hugged us again. “You’re here. You’re really here for me.” Her voice broke.
“Everyone out,” Dodge called, and people vacated the common room quickly.
Before Dodge and Low left with the others, Low walked by us with a watery gaze. “Thank you,” she mouthed.
While I nodded, Kayson tipped his chin up before he surrounded us both with his big body, and I held Rommy tightly to me.
