Chapter 19
âIâll try and wrap up editing so I can leave early on Thursday,â Haiden said as he stirred his Bloody Mary and Cash grinned as he leaned forward and rested his elbows on the table. They were enjoying cocktails and a relaxed breakfast on The Penthouseâs patio. Cash was wearing one of the hotelâs robes and Haiden reclined elegantly in the suit he was born in.
âEsmerelda doesnât know what to do with herself, sheâs complaining about all the long weekends off,â he said and Haiden snorted.
âI think she knows weâre up to something,â he murmured and Cash winced.
âI think so too. Sheâs used to us having all sorts of guests but they donât usually visit every other weekend and sleep in my wing,â he said and Haiden beamed as he leaned and kissed Cashâs cheek.
âBecause Iâm special,â he replied and Cash chuckled as he reached for his coffee.
âSheâs been with us since Natalie was a toddler. I trust her to respect my privacy,â he said then sighed. âYou know I want to tell everyone about us, right?â He asked and Haiden waved it off as he nodded.
âI get it. You have to do whatâs best for your family and your business,â he said and Cash frowned.
âI donât like that it sounds like they matter more than you. I think we need a little more time before I turn everything upside down. Once I do that, itâs kind of like the point of no return,â he explained.
âOnce youâre out, youâre out,â Haiden said and Cash shook his head.
âNo, I meant for us. Iâm not going to introduce you to my brother and Natalie until weâre ready. Thatâs going to make everything so much more complicated and I want us to have time to figure things out,â he said and Haiden hummed thoughtfully as he sipped.
âIt has been nice, everythingâs so quiet and peaceful up at the Little Farm,â he agreed and Cash pointed.
âWeâd lose that. I donât know how Natalie will take it. She might think youâre cool or rad or whatever. Or, she might think youâre taking me away from her. Sheâs always been the center of my universe,â he said and Haiden blinked at him for a moment then laughed.
âIâm not worried about Natalie,â he said then cleared his throat and became serious. âBeau, on the other handâ¦â He gave Cash a pointed look and his appetite was gone.
âI have no idea how thatâs going to go. Telling him is the thing that scares me the most, right now,â he admitted and Haiden groaned sympathetically as he reached for Cashâs hand.
âHe sounds like he loves you and would do anything for you,â he said and Cashâs cheeks puffed out as he exhaled.
âHe does and heâs been there for me through everything. He held us together and made me finish college after my parents died, helped me build my own home and business and I wouldnât have survived Gretchenâs death without him. At times, heâs been as much of a parent for Natalie as I have.
