Shit. The photos Molly took must’ve already gotten on the shelter’s feed.
Noah starts laughing. “Wait—it gets better. All of these shots are taken byMolly Greene.”
“How do you know?” I demand.
“Says so right here.”
Damn it.
“Lemme see,” Sebastian says, an evil glint in his eyes. He’s never going to let me live this down.
Emmett joins in with a grin. “Send me the link.”
Oh, for fuck’s sake.When did my brothers start sharing Noah’s love of social media?
“Lemme screencap it first,” Noah says.
“Stop.” I reach for his phone.
He jumps back, quicker than the cheetahs he loves so much. “Uh-uh. Too slow! Check your phones, bros.”
My phone buzzes, and there are various pings around the table. All my brothers pull out their phones to check.
“Holyshit…” Huxley says with a laugh. “Look at those soulful gray eyes.”
“Women will adopt the dogs in a heartbeat if you come with them,” Griffin says. Is it a joke? He’s a grumpy bastard and sometimes it’s hard to tell.
“So. Is Molly Greene the one?” Noah’s tone grows sly.
Everyone turns in my direction.
“‘The one’?” I keep my voice cool.
“The girl you’ve been pining over all these years. Why else would you look at her like, ‘Take me home with you, please!’”
“Shut up!” But Noah’s correct.Fuck. I was trying to play it unaffected, but it’s impossible when Molly was giving me an encouraging smile the entire time she took the pictures.
“Stop pining and man up,” Grant says decisively. “Ask her out.”
Emmett nods. “Exactly.”
“Like you asked Amy out?” She hated him for years because he made her redo all her work over and over again to prevent her from seeing other men.
“Well, I didn’t wait eight years, that’s for sure. Not even two,” Emmett says.
“I’m not sure that’s a lot better, manning-up-wise,” Huxley says.
“Carpe Molly, dude. Who knows, she could be madly in love with you,” Noah says.
Doubt that, based on how she looked when she spoke of her boyfriend. I hate how I keep missing her in-between-boyfriend periods to make my move. But I never find out until it’s too late, and by then she’s with a new guy. It’s like the world is conspiring against me.
“What’s the problem?” Griffin says.
“She’s happy with her boyfriend,” I say flatly.
“So? Boyfriends can be disposed of.” Noah grins. “Just hire a hooker to seduce him away from her.”
I shake my head. “That’s low.”
