Kenzie

The police were useless. It was the same story every time I went. Brody’s friend tried to help, but unfortunately, there was nothing they could do until there was evidence Chace had committed a crime, and him knowing what went on inside my apartment at night apparently didn’t warrant any cause for concern. Jeremy wasn’t too impressed, and I was running out of ideas to keep Chace away.

“You need a lawyer,” Jeremy said as we walked to my car.

“I can’t afford a good one. Chace has money. Lots of it. I’m worried if it went to court, he’d win.”

“He couldn’t possibly win.” He took the keys from me and ushered me around to the passenger side.

“I’m not willing to risk it. Not yet.”

“Well, it’s bullshit.”

“I know. But at least uni starts back in a week.”

“So?” Jeremy started the car and backed out of the parking lot.

“So, Chace will have to go back to school. It’ll make it harder for him to harass me if he’s living three hours away.” I pointed him in the direction of Ryder’s house so we could go and see Cole.

I was nervous about Cole meeting him officially. He’d seen him a few times at the roadhouse, but they never really interacted, and I wasn’t sure how things would go. I was worried Cole wouldn’t like him because that would mean any feelings I may have had toward Jeremy would immediately become irrelevant, and I knew that would be too hard to cope with. He was quickly becoming a big part of my life, even after only a few days. There was something about him that drew me in.

“And until then?”

“Until then, Cole can stay with Ryder, and once I’m convinced Chace has left town, I’ll bring my baby home. It’s only a few days.”

Jeremy grunted in response and didn’t say anything else about it. “Okay, so tell me what Cole likes.”

“What? Why?”

“Because first impressions count, and if I want to keep spending time with his mumma, I need to make sure he likes me.” Jeremy smiled, and my heart melted at his words.

“You want to keep spending time with me?” I grinned.

“I haven’t got you out of your pants yet, so yeah.”

I punched him in the arm. “And if that happens, then what? You’ll get bored and move on.” I swallowed thickly at the thought that if I gave in to my feelings and things actually progressed that Jeremy might just get over it and find someone else to “spend time” with.

“Not likely. Once I get you out of those pants, babe, I doubt I’d let you put them back on. In fact, I think I might burn them all to be safe.”

I raised an eyebrow and didn’t say a word because Jeremy had just pulled the car into Ryder’s driveway.

We climbed out of the car and walked up the path. Jeremy was fidgeting beside me, straightening his shirt and brushing his hair out of his face. “Do I look okay?” he asked.

I chuckled and patted his arm.
