“Can’t tell you that just yet.”

“How long do I have to be on lockdown?”

“Not sure,” Dad said.

“I have a girls’ night this weekend.”

“Aero’ll take you.”

I dropped my head and tried not to scream. “I don’t want Aero to take me.”

“Then you won’t go out.”

“This is totally unfair!” I said, throwing my hands in the air.

“You know the drill. If we get shit sorted, I might change my mind.”

“I don’t know why I even bother asking you,” I snapped, and stomped away from him. “I’m a fucking adult.”

“Baby girl?”

“What?”

“Sunday dinner with Wyatt.”

I faced him. “She forgave you?”

“What makes you think she had to forgive me?”

I rolled my eyes and tried to think of something quick. “Because you’ve been so freaking extra over the past few weeks, so I put two and two together.”

He sighed, crossing he arms. “Yeah, she forgave me.”

“Don’t fuck it up, Dad, I like her.”

“I like her, too,” Drake said.

“So do I.” He grinned.

“Good, we’re all in agreement,” Orion said.

“Dinner Sunday,” he repeated. “Drake, you’re cookin’.”

“I’ll help,” I offered.

“No,” my brothers said in unison.

Granted, I was a pretty terrible cook, but I could at least boil water and chop veggies.

“Both of you can suck it,” I snapped, and Dad chuckled.

“Okay, I’m gonna head out,” Dad said.

“Say hi to Wyatt,” I said, hugging him.

“I will.”

He left and I decided I needed some alone time, so I escaped to the guest room where I sat on the edge of the bed and broke down.
