“That we are.” He clears his throat. “So…you guys cleaned.”
“We did.” I smile at his change of the subject.
“Was it not good enough or something?”
I look around. “It was good, but it could always be better.”
He rolls his eyes and then looks down at his watch. “Do you need to get ready for the party tonight?”
“I do. Is Asher still clueless?”
Calloway nods. “Yeah, he’s out running errands with Yak. The guy might like to talk, but he’s not going to spill the beans on something like this.”
“Good.”
“I’ll see you later?” he asks as I get off the stool.
“You know it. Go have fun with Maggie.”
We start walking our separate ways when I realize I forgot to ask him something.
“Oh, Calloway, I forgot to ask…” I say as I turn to face him.
He pauses at the door and looks over his shoulder. “What’s up?”
“Road names. Did you already pick one out for Asher?”
Calloway smirks. “I did.”
“Well, are you going to tell me?”
“You’ll find out later.”
“You’re not even going to give me a hint?”
“You already know.” He winks and then walks outside.
I huff. Fucking brothers, man.
ASHER
As we pull down the drive to the clubhouse, it becomes evident that a party is happening.
I look over at Yak. “Did you know about this?”
“No, but hurry the fuck up. I’m ready to get out of this cage,” he says as he rubs his hands together.
Tide lets us through the gate, and true to his word, as soon as we stop rolling, Yak is out of the truck and heading up the steps to the clubhouse. I laugh under my breath as I shut the truck off.
“Hurry the fuck up,” he says impatiently right outside the door.
“You know, Yak, maybe that’s why you’re single. You don’t know how to take your time,” I tease as I get out and start heading his way.
“Fuck you,” he says with no heat.
Instead of walking in ahead of me, he pushes me through the door, making me stumble.
“Surprise!” everyone yells as soon as I cross the threshold.
