Most of all—and the most special one out of them all—we’re in love with each other.
“I love the positive side of you,” he urges. “I think my positive side has been rubbing off on you.”
Yeah, sure, bud …
As I raise an eyebrow at him, he throws his head back and laughs. We both know that’s the complete opposite of what he is, but I wouldn’t want him any other way. I adore his black attire, his tattoos are breathtaking, and his jewelry would have any girl on her knees.
As our lips brush delicately together, the door is slammed open. I can’t help but let out the squeal that leaves my lips. Both of our bodies flinch before we look over at whoever ruined our moment.
Elijah stands at the door with his mouth dropped open in shock. He stares at me like I’m a ghost. “Amelia, come over here!” he suddenly screams over his shoulder before running over to me.
When he yanks me off of Leonidas’s lap, I laugh as he pulls me into his body.
“Trinity, I missed you so much!”
“I missed you, goof.” I squeeze him just as hard.
I pull away from him when I hear a gasp from the doorway. Amelia stands at the door with a hand covering her mouth.
“Trin!”
I run to my best friend and squeeze the living shit out of her.
“I can’t believe you’re here right now,” she whispers out, amazed. Pulling away, she frowns at me.
“Ow!” I exclaim when she punches me in the shoulder.
“How come you didn’t tell me you were coming?” she grumbles.
Note to self: Amelia also hates surprises.
I roll my eyes. “Duh, it was a surprise. It wouldn’t have been one if I’d told you.”
Rolling her eyes back, she pulls me into her body again. “I’m so glad you’re going to watch our home show.”
Feeling a hand on my shoulder, I see Elijah smiling down at me.
“Leonidas will definitely sing better today, knowing his girl is watching him.”
I hear the guy of the hour laugh. When I raise an eyebrow at him, he blows me a kiss.
“He’s right. I’ll only be singing for you tonight.”
There goes my heart, beating at an unhealthy rate.
The room is filled with silence as soon as an employee walks in.
She carries a clipboard. “Found them. I’ll get them out right away.” She speaks into an earpiece that is attached to her ear. Glancing up at the band with firmness, she states, “You guys are on in five minutes. Get going now.”
She disappears out the door, but not before giving me a glare. Judging by the look she sent me, I’m going to guess she doesn’t like me.
How rude …
I can’t imagine dealing with people like this every day. No wonder why X3 hates it here. I would too.
The triplets all let out groans. As they glare at one another, I chuckle.
“Triplets shit,” I remark for them.
