TATE

“From the Ground Up” by Dan + Shay

“He’s not gonna bite,” Quinn jokes over her shoulder, laughing softly under her breath when Maverick’s eyes narrow even more toward me.

“Not sure that his bite is what I’m worried about at the moment, Grease,” I tell her, right in her ear, which makes her shiver in my arms.

We just got to her house not even five minutes ago and, after another hot-as-fuck kiss on her front porch, walked inside to find her brother staring daggers at the two of us from his position just inside. Thankfully our clothes dried off a lot on our drive back to her house—but I wouldn’t mind getting this over with so we can get her changed and head to my place so I can do the same.

“You big baby,” Leigh huffs in exasperation, slapping Maverick’s shoulder playfully. “You’re the one who told her not to fight it, remember? Actually, if I recall correctly, you said fightin’ it would be pointless and what’s meant to happen is gonna happen no matter what. So, Cowboy, suck it up and let it be.”

Maverick finally looks away from where I’m standing, Quinn attempting to block me the best she can with her tiny body. Thankfully, with her standing guard the way she is, her brother can’t see the raging fucking hard-on I’ve been sporting since the kiss outside the front door, giving me the time I needed to get control of the situation.

“Just cuz I said it doesn’t mean I wanna see it.”

“That holds no logic whatsoever, honey,” Leigh continues, smiling up at him.

“Doesn’t matter if it does or not,” he mutters sullenly.

She rolls her eyes at him and gives both of us her attention, ignoring the giant daggers of anger Maverick’s eyes are shooting in her direction now that she’s clearly discounting his feelings.

“It’s good to see you again, Tate. It’s been a long damn time,” she greets, playfully shooing Quinn away and wrapping her arms around me in a friendly hug.

“I’d say too long, Leigh. Feels damn fine to be back.” I look at Quinn before finishing. “Like comin’ home.”

Quinn blushes, much to my surprise, as I’m not used to seeing her do that. I give her a wink before turning back to Leigh. “It’s good to see you, too, and congratulations on y’all’s engagement,” I tell her earnestly.

Maverick grunts.

“Would you stop?” Leigh jokingly snaps over her shoulder before stepping away from me and whipping her head toward him. She must have mouthed something to him, because his scowl gets just a little bit harsher.

“Soooo . . .” Quinn sings. “What are y’all doin’ here?”

Maverick grunts again and Leigh sighs, clearly knowing her man well enough to realize that any attempt to pacify him at this point will just fall on deaf ears. She looks back at Quinn and me and gives us a wink before walking back to his side. His arm immediately comes up and around her shoulders to pull her back against his front.

Guess he’s not too big on sharing the attention of any female in his life.
