CHAPTER 20

Range

Getting ready to pick up my girl from work, I couldn’t help the smile that came across my face when I thought about seeing her again. After spilling my guts about my shitty upbringing, I was so mentally exhausted I thought it best we gave each other time to recuperate. Well, that time was over and I wanted my woman in my bed tonight.

I heard Maxwell run in and grab something then slam the door on his way out like a fourteen-year-old child. Looked like he was still pissed I’d called Buck about his behavior and had decided to continue his late night rendezvous away from home. Max was a grown man, and he certainly didn’t need my permission to fuck whomever he wanted, but I was glad I had the place to myself tonight so I could spend time with Clover alone. After everything that happened, we needed this time together to reconnect, although I already knew we were still on the same page.

I grabbed my keys and wallet, itching to head out the door, when I remembered I needed to grab my piece as well. Buck made sure he taught all of us how to properly care for a firearm so that in case anything happened to him, we knew how to protect ourselves. Shooting was one of the things I’d excelled at mainly because I would picture my old man’s face on the target and hit the bull’s-eye every time. Buck thought I was a natural and made sure I took all safety precautions during our lessons. When he’d left the gun in the lock box, I made sure it was always cleaned and oiled in case I ever had to use it. I attached the holster to my leg and secured the gun, hoping I could hide it from Clover. I didn’t want her to get worried. Somehow I just knew my girl would not like the idea of me carrying. But if she found out about it, she was gonna have to get over it, at least until this fucker decided to leave town. Satisfied it was well-hidden under my jeans, I set off to pick her up but ran smack dab into Sebastian walking in the door.

“Dude, where you going in such a hurry? Is there a fire or something?”

“Naw, man, just going to pick up my girl.”

“Your girl? I didn’t know you were seeing someone. When did this happen and how come you didn’t tell me?”

Shit, with all the stuff that had been going on around here, I’d forgotten to fill him in. Sebastian could be sensitive when he thought he was being excluded from things in our lives. It wasn’t that I’d planned on keeping it a secret or anything; telling him just had completely slipped my mind. I knew I had to do some damage control before he went into full drama mode.

“It hasn’t been that long since we’ve been seeing each other, but I was actually gonna invite her over to a get-together so she can meet you guys.
