”I just want to go back to my hotel room.” And take care of that itch.
“You’re right,” Kell spoke up, almost too loud. “You should go get some rest. Jayce, Neil,” Kell gave them each a pointed look, “Ailey shouldn’t go alone. Why don’t the two of you take her to her hotel room?”
My mouth popped open and I stared wide-eyed at Kell. Neil looked taken aback while Jayce gave Kell an amused look.
“The both of you better make sure she gets there safe and sound,” Kell added with a grin.
Jayce wrapped an arm around my shoulder and Ren let him pull me up and off the back of the ambulance. My knees were a little shaky, but aside from that, I was fine.
“You coming?” Jayce tossed the question to Neil, who looked befuddled but took my hand anyway.
Kell gave me a smug look. I wanted to be peeved at him. Could he be more obvious? Another part of me, though, couldn’t help but squirm inwardly in excitement.
I hadn’t been able to have that conversation with the two of them like I’d planned.
It looked like I was getting my chance.
