Chapter Eleven

Max

"What in the unholy hell are you wearing?" I couldn't help the snort of laughter that burst from my mouth when I walked into the apartment and saw Tony dancing around the kitchen in a pair of skimpy bright blue briefs with bananas all over them. After the shitty night and morning I'd had, it was good to feel a bit of the weight on my shoulders lift.

"I'm not sure if I want to kick my brothers' asses or kiss them," Tony muttered as he sautéed veggies in the pan.

I slid in behind him, wrapping my arms around his waist and letting one hand slide over the front of the ridiculous briefs. "What do your brothers have to do with the banana briefs?"

"The whole lot of them think they're a bunch of damn comedians," he grumbled, shaking his head. "These were the other part of their big birthday surprise, something about they knew how much I loved B-A-N-A-N-A-S and they couldn't resist getting them for me. I realized how long I've been putting off laundry when I reached into the drawer and these were the only underwear I had left."

"I'm not following at all." Usually, I was pretty good at deciphering what Tony meant versus what he said, but I felt further from an explanation than when I'd unlocked the front door.

"Everything comes back to the night of the Pride show," he explained, setting the spatula on a small plate next to the stove before leading me over to one of the stools at the breakfast bar. "I might've gotten a little excited during Peter's performance, so now they've made it their mission in life to never let me live it down."

"Okay, and how do a pair of underwear factor into their humiliation?" I needed a cup of coffee ASAP.

I'd gone home last night because my roommate had been leaving increasingly agitated voicemails for me saying we needed to talk. I'd been putting it off because I figured the asshole would like collecting my half of the rent even though I wasn't staying there, and I wasn't in the mood to deal with him when life had been going well lately. Unfortunately, he'd gotten my attention by threatening to toss all my shit in the dumpster if I was going to ghost him. It was a bit depressing to realize all of my worldly possessions fit in the rusted-out bed of my pickup.

Solving the mystery of the banana briefs seemed like a great diversion for a few minutes. After breakfast, I'd send Tony on his way to work and start looking for a new place to store my shit.

"Because he was dressed up like Gwen Stefani and performed “Hollaback Girl”. You know, the cadence about how this shit is bananas and all that? Well, they've latched onto it like... Well, I don't even know what like because it's too early in the damn morning, and I'm pissy about the fact I have to find time to do laundry and we're supposed to be going over to Mama's for dinner tonight.
