Chapter Twenty-Three

Jett

I knew she was worried about her mom. Avery and I had to do a lot of convincing, but we got her on the plane. Avery had to promise to check in on her mom daily. Quinn even asked her father to make sure her mother was okay. With recent events that was a stretch, but he was doing everything he could to be there for Quinn. I was pretty positive he too knew how much she needed a break. Apparently when Beau, her dad, admitted he never truly loved her mom, her mother didn’t take the news well and went back to her old drinking habits. She was hoping they would fall back into one another’s arms.

Quinn nervously sat next to me, firmly holding on to my hand. I watched her closely as she stared out the window with a blank look in her eyes. I tugged on her hand, and she looked over to meet my gaze.

“What’s going on inside that pretty head of yours?” I asked.

“Thinking about this weekend. I’m about to meet your entire family, yet I’m not sure exactly how to introduce myself,” she said, her cheeks reddening.

I lifted her hand to my lips and kissed her knuckles. “Well, I already took care of that. You’re my girl. They know that.” Her eyes widened, and I laughed at her expression. “You don’t have a say anything. You’re mine, face it, accept it, and move on from it.” She stared back at me, speechless. I leaned toward her and kissed her quickly. “They already know all about you, babe. They’re gonna love you.”

She stared back at me with a small smile on her face. She had nothing to worry about. My family was thrilled the moment I told them I was bringing someone. I never was one for commitment. I mean, I had girls I dated, but nothing ever lasted. I was entirely too focused on the goals I had set for myself. So they all continued to drill me for information, and I knew without a doubt they would love Quinn.

My parents and Harper flew out on Wednesday. They wanted to be there to help get things set up. I was pretty sure they’d also come early for baby Colt. They hadn’t seen him since right after he was born, so they needed another baby fix.

When our flight landed we got our luggage and retrieved our rental car. Quinn was so distressed I could almost see it pouring off her. She had a nervous habit of picking at her nails, making them click as she released them.

I placed my hand over hers to stop her fidgeting. She looked up, blushing. “Stop worrying,” I insisted.
