Chapter 19

Cody

The timing was awful. Cody had planned to put work aside while he spent the weekend with Julie, even if they were going to be in the same room as her father and uncle. She'd asked him to go. She wanted him there. That shit meant something to him. So, he should have been in a good mood when he picked her up, but he wasn't.

Cody had just checked his email to find that he'd been turned down for a job, one that he really wanted. He'd been outbid, and that pissed him off. How could he have bid wrong? What had happened? He'd been doing the same thing for the last couple of years. He knew what he was doing, so where did he go wrong?

Of course, Julie noticed, and within minutes, she was calling him out on his attitude. It wasn't the great start to the weekend that he'd been looking for.

When they got to her parents' house, Cody tried to play it cool. He was about to walk into a house filled with the people Julie loved, three of them being his biggest competition. While he could put business aside, she'd reminded him that her father and uncle most likely couldn't. Knowing that her dad had been talking shit about him at home, he was pretty sure she was right. Then there was Jason, her best friend, the one Cody hadn't even known about until Jessie had told him just the day before. Cody wasn't sure why, but just the thought of the guy was pissing him off.

When they got to the door, he couldn't stop himself from covering her hand with his and letting her know that they were in it together, totally and completely together. Seeing her relax from his touch hit him deep, and he knew there was no way he was letting anyone ruin their weekend.

The door opened, and she was wrapped in some big fucker's arms in seconds. Cody instantly saw red. When the words my girl came out of the guy's mouth, it took all Cody had not to step forward, rip her away from the punk, throw her over his shoulder, and carry her away to safety. A safety that didn't include a best friend, her father, or her uncle.

“Who the fuck is that?” the punk asked.

He knew as much about Cody as Cody knew about him, not a damn thing, and that pissed Cody off even more.

Julie linked her arm with Cody's, and he instantly felt them both relax a bit. She nudged him to move, and he did. When she got to the living room, she stopped, and Cody felt the tension fill the room in seconds. She looked over at her brother and the woman sitting on his lap, and Cody could tell she was surprised. She was also very sweet, as she moved forward to hug the woman. When she stepped back, she grabbed Cody's hand and linked their fingers together, and he squeezed her hand to let her know everything was going to be okay, he'd make sure of it.
