I guessed that was what they’d been texting about earlier. My eyes found Wyatt. “Why black?”

Wyatt shrugged as he started peeking into the bags on the floor. “Your favorite color is black. I thought you’d like it more than pink.”

I stared back at the phone, remembering the game of questions we had played and how he had asked me what my favorite color was. “I do. Thank you. Both of you.”

“You three are cute,” Mac said as she carried more stuff into the bathroom.

“Where’s what Reid got her?” Wyatt asked as he continued to look in the bags. “I want to make sure he got the right stuff.”

“Reid got me something?”

Roe sighed. “I’m sure he’ll give it to you later.”

Wyatt rolled his eyes. “We should help Mac put all this away.”

“No!” Mac yelled from the bathroom before she came running in. “I don’t need your help.” She glared at Wyatt. “Back away from the bags, Wy.”

Wyatt put his hands up as he walked away. He returned to his spot on the bed next to me.

“You bought something we told you not to, didn’t you?” Roe said as he frowned at her.

Mac put her hands on her hips and gave him a look full of attitude. “You do not get to dictate what your girlfriend wears, Monroe Walker.”

Roe ran his hands down his face. “Please tell me you didn’t buy that see-through latex dress.”

I couldn’t stop my eyes from widening as I stared at Mac for her response.

“I only picked that out as a joke to rile you and Reid.” She chuckled as if remembering it. “And even if I did buy it, Lottie would look smokin’ in that dress and you would thank me for getting it for her later.”

“She’d be practically naked, Mac,” Roe argued.

“Is there a reason you don’t want to see Lottie naked?” Mac asked.

Roe carefully thought before responding, “That’s not what I said.”

The more Mac argued with him, the more delighted she appeared. “So you’re okay with her wearing it.”

Roe shook his head. “No.”

Mac smiled triumphantly. “What are you going to do, strip it off of her if she doesn’t listen?”

Roe didn’t respond.

“I guess now you understand why I would ever consider buying a dress like that for Lottie in the first place and why you would thank me.” She winked at him before returning to the bathroom.

“I wouldn’t wear a see-through latex dress,” I said.

Wyatt chuckled a little. “That’s too bad. Mac worked so hard to make Roe question everything he thought he knew.”

Roe rested his head back with his eyes closed. “Shut up, Wy.”

That only made Wyatt fully laugh.

I let out a little yawn before saying, “If I was going to wear something see-through, I would choose chiffon or lace.”

Wyatt’s laughter stopped abruptly and Roe’s eyes shot open before he lifted his head. I could feel them both staring at me, but my focus was on my new phone. Roe had already programmed in everyone’s numbers, including Bram’s.

“I have so many responses to that,” Wyatt said.
