Yes? She said yes?
Shit, if I’d known it’d be that easy, I might have done it sooner.
Or, you know, not have my brother do it for me.
Peter elbows me, knocking me out of my shock.
“Great. I’ll text you.”
Audrey doesn’t say anything, giving me another one of those smiles before leaving that hits me in the gut.
“You should be thanking me.” Peter points at me.
“Why?”
“Because she clearly wanted you to ask her out and you didn’t.”
I roll my eyes at him. “We have a history. I have to take it slow.”
“If I took things slow with Nash, he might not be here right now. You needed a push.”
“Didn’t we already test the igloos?” I give him a skeptical look.
“Of course we did,”—he rolls his eyes at me—“but I need to know if they’re romantic. I can cancel if you want.”
“Please don’t!” I shout.
“Knew it. You’re so far gone for her.”
“Yeah, yeah.”
Except he’s not wrong. Maybe my brother giving me the push is exactly what I needed.
I guess there are worse things than interfering family.
ChapterThirteen
LOGAN
“Is everything ready?” I ask Nash.
He chucks the towel in his hand at me. “You’ve asked me thirteen times now it seems. Yes, it’s ready.”
I blow out a nervous breath. “This is my first date with Audrey. Everything has to be perfect.”
“First date?” Nash quirks a brow at me.
The bar is quiet for a Thursday night. It helps calm my nerves. Because if everything blows up in my face, then no one will see me leaving on my own tonight.
If all does go to plan, I hope Audrey will let me have a second date. And a third.
“Shut up.” I toss the towel back at him. “You know what I mean.”
“I do. And I know exactly how you feel.”
“Shit, you do.”
Nash left without a word nine years ago. With his sudden reappearance, he threw my brother for a loop. Now, the two of them are stronger than ever.
