âSooooo, what the fuck is up, bitch?â Delaney's voice sounds through the phone, making me smile.
Itâs the day after what I have decided to call the best date of my life. True to his word, we cuddled and watched a couple of rom-com movies until we both fell asleep. And this time, when I woke up, Matteo wasnât gone. He had one arm holding me against him and one leg hiked up over me, almost like he thought I was going to try to leave. If only he knew I couldnât even if I tried.
When we finally got out of bed, he made me breakfast, and we just enjoyed each other's company. We didnât talk much, but the silence was comfortable. After breakfast, he said he had to take care of some things at the restaurant, so here I am, lounging out by the pool with Rob baking away nearby.
âI donât even know bitch.â I laugh. I wish I fucking did. âHowâs work without me? Do you miss me yet?â
âBitch, donât even ask me that. You know I canât stand Staceyâs dumbass. If she has to ask me one more time how to put a jack and coke into the system, Iâm going to lose it.â
âShe irritates the fuck out of me. Iâm sorry youâre stuck with her,â I say, hoping she canât hear the smile in my voice.
âNo, youâre not.â Delaney laughs. âSo, when are you coming back?â
âI honestly have no idea,â I sigh as I sit up on the lounger. âI donât think Matteo has made any progress on figuring out whatâs been going on.â If he has, he hasn't said shit, which is going to really get on my nerves. I need to ask him about that. âHe still has someone with me wherever I go. Bitch, I canât even lay out at the pool by myself.â
âThatâs kind of fucking hot. I love me a protective man.â
âOf course you do.â I snort. Delaney loves any man that gives the aura of fucking crazy.
âDo you think he will let you go out for your birthday?â
Ugh. Iâm dreading turning thirty. I know people say age is just a number, but this one feels different. I feel like I need to start planning my funeral instead of celebrating. Iâve been very careful not to tell Matteo about my birthday coming up.
âHeâll let me go, but I know heâs going to demand that someone go with me.â
âThat is seriously going to kill the thirtieth birthday vibes, but weâll make it work,â Delaney decides.
âDo I even want to know what you have planned?â
âItâs a surprise, bitch. I just need your sexy ass to show up. And if that isnât clear enough, I better see a minimum of three inches of cleavage.â
âThree inches of cleavage. Got it, boss.â I laugh.
âAlright, Iâve gotta go. Iâll text you the time and place. Later, bitch.â
âByeeee,â I sing out just before she hangs up.
Opening up the book app on my phone, I lie back down as I
