“I’m starting to build a collection of these you know.” She jokes as she pulls it over her head.

“That was the point,” I say with a grin.

My house feels so much more like a home with her in it. I’m finding myself wishing she were here all the time lately.

“I brought churros. And ice cream.”

Dream girl.

“From the food trucks we went to the day we walked around downtown. I had to rack my brain for the name of the churro food truck, but eventually it came to me.” She sticks her hand in the bag, reaching for one of the churros and dipping it into a scoop of ice cream.

“Our first date.” I have no idea if she considers that a date, but I do. Abby’s smile confirms she feels the same as she brings her body over to mine. I take a bite of the churro she has in her hand and moan as the cinnamon hits my pallet.

“It’s just a churro, Anderson. Calm down.” Abby’s tone is playful and sarcastic as she teases me.

“You know how I feel about cinnamon.”

Nodding her head, she grabs a heaping spoonful of the cookie dough ice cream and shoves it in her mouth before walking into the living room.

“New Girl?I’m sure you’re dying to see what happens between Schmidt and CeCe.” She smiles as she grabs the remote off the table.

“Oh, they’re end game, I already know it,” I say before digging my spoon in for a bite of the ice cream.

“You’ll have to keep watching to find out.” Abby’s shoulders pop up and down with a shrug as she throws herself on the couch wearing only my t-shirt.

Fuck I love her. And I need to talk to Chase.

I snuck out of Ford’s early this morning to get back before Chase woke up, but also because Summer is coming into town today. I’m excited to tell her how my ‘bold statement’ went. Summer encourages me to do a lot of things outside of my comfort zone and usually I don’t take her up on most of them, but last night’s idea actually sounded like a lot of fun and as expected, Ford loved it.

As I’m heating up a bowl of oatmeal, there’s a knock at the door and I know that it’s Summer. The moment I open it, she flies in and pulls me into the biggest hug.

“You had sex!” she shouts. Summer really needs to work on her inside voice.

“What? I did not just have sex. Also, keep your voice down!” I’m turning around to make sure Chase isn’t out of his room yet.

“Well obviously not just now. Last night. Right? He loved the coat and gave you the orgasm of a lifetime for it. I’m right, just tell me I’m right.” She has me rolling my eyes before I nod my head.

“Yes. It was a great idea, one of your best,” I say, grabbing her bag from the floor and walking it into my bedroom. She follows behind me and taps on Chase’s door as she walks down the hall.

“The fun one is here.” Summer calls out. I can hear Chase’s door open as I’m tossing Summer’s bag in my room and walking back out to the kitchen.

“You mean the trouble maker? You’re a piece of work, Kincaid.” Chase pulls her in for a hug and I busy myself with pulling my oatmeal from the microwave and putting it at the table.

“I can’t believe you’re going to be a daddy.” Summer’s voice has a playful tone to it, but she was completely shocked when I told her. She may need to see the actual baby before she believes my brother is going to have a child.

As I’m sitting down to eat since I’ve eaten nothing since churros and ice cream last night, my phone dings and I see the truck emoji pop up. Ford thought it was only fair to change his name to an emoji in my phone since I changed myself to a princess in his.

Ford

Hi Princess. Next time wake me up before you leave.

I didn’t trust myself to wake you up and not get distracted. I needed to get home.

It’s true. The way the comforter hit Ford’s hip just right in bed this morning, made my thighs press together in reaction. He looked like a damn GQ model laying there, so perfectly sculpted. Athletes and their annoyingly wonderful bodies.

With Christmas being only a few days away and Ford having to do some volunteer work over the next couple of days, I probably won’t see him a ton. I’ve made a small list of the things that need to get done beforehand and thankfully, Summer is here and can help with quite a bit.

After we eat and get changed, Summer and I tackle the to-do list. Having her around always makes everything feel easier. She just has this carefree, happy personality that she doesn’t take life too seriously, but also, she’s a piranha and she’ll take off someone’s head if they’re an ass to me or anybody she cares about.
