I can’t believe I said what I did.

Even more, I can’t believe he agreed.

But here we are, back at his house.

“If we’re going to drink, we need to do it at home.”

Home.

That meant his house. The one we now share.

Why did I ask for this again?

After stopping for a beer in the kitchen—because Porter insisted he’s not mixing beer and liquor tonight—he leads me upstairs to his office. It’s the one part of the house I haven’t yet been in. It feels wrong to intrude on his space, so I stay away.

It surprises me when my toes sink into carpet—the rest of the house has wood flooring.

When I ask him about it, he shrugs. “It just feels good on my feet when I’m spending the day sitting on my ass. I like the comfort of it.”

Fair enough.

I glance around the room and instantly curse myself for never making the trek up here.

I don’t care if it’s his personal space or not. That view is worth the risk of him finding out I’ve been up here.

Porter heads for a small shelf on one side of the room and I head for the balcony.

I step out into the night breeze, and the cool wind nearly takes my breath away.

“Holy…”

“Shit, right?” Porter holds out a glass to me. “I didn’t know what you’d like, so I chose my favorite for you to try first.”

I take a whiff and make a face. “What is this?”

“Tequila.”

I arch a brow. “Are you trying to make my clothes fall off?”

He laughs, and I love the way it rumbles out of him. “It’s funny you should say that. I always joke they wrote those lyrics about me.”

“If my clothes fall off, yours should too.”

Then I down the shot like the pro I most definitely am not.

The taste is awful, and I hate the burn.

“Blech!”

Porter laughs. “Right?”

“Okay, you drink now. It’s only fair.”

He tips the beer up to his lips and takes a big swig. “Blech!” he mocks.

“Right?” I tease back. “But I didn’t mean beer. Can’t you do one shot with me? For my birthday?”

His eyes flare for just a moment. “Didn’t you read the Tequila Clause?”

I think back to the myriad documents he had me sign and briefly remember some sort of NDA.

I’ll be honest, I didn’t pay much attention to anything Porter sent over. I could have signed a marriage license and never even known.

I was too anxious to make this legit, too afraid he’d rip it away before I got the chance to taste it. So I just signed.

Probably a dumb move on my part, but it’s too late now.

“Please?” I say again, already feeling the booze tickling at my head. “Just once. I won’t tell anyone you broke your own contract.” I zip my lips dramatically.

He laughs and shakes his head. “Fine. Fine. But just one. That’s it.”

“Deal.”

He sticks his hand out and I glance down at it, smirking at his signature move.

I slide my palm against his and he pulls me toward him.
