CHAPTER 15
JAMIE
WHAT’S DATING?
Tyler
How was PT?
Jamie
Good. Cleared for full practice tomorrow.
Yes! Rowan says: Yay Jamie!
So sweet. Are you working on Sunday?
I’ve got the early morning shift at the coffee shop and get off around 10am. Why?
Team Christmas party at my house. I’d love for you both to be there.
What time?
Want to come over for lunch and then hang out while I get things set up? I borrowed a Pack n’ Play from Mitchy so Rowan will have a place to nap. Even got one of those salt lamps in the guest room so he can have some light.
That would be amazing. Onething, though.
What is it?
Would you be okay with waiting to tell Rowan about us? At least for a little while?
Of course. I’m happy to follow your lead.
So does that mean no touching?
No obvious touching.
So…hugs?
We can hug.
Jamie.
What?
It’s honestly suspicious.
What is?
How nice you are.
Can’t wait to see you.
The hired cleaning service was just finishing in the living room when Jamie heard a knock on the front door.
“Coming!” He shouted, his sock-covered feet sliding on the wood floor. He pulled the door open and his face broke into a smile at the sight of Tyler and Rowan bundled up for the cold weather.
“Look at you guys,” he said, not giving ashit that he was probably grinning like a fool as he beckoned them in and closed the door behind them.
