Elliot + Olivia
Porter’s patio, maybe for the first time in ever, looked like Grady's place. His sister talked with her hands as she sat between Victor and Oliver. Took two seconds to realize she was offering tips on how to beat some game they were into at the moment.
Grady and Eva were whispering to each other. Their baby slept in the carrier. The intimacy between them was thoughtless, from the small touches to finishing each other's sentences.
Porter should have been relaxed as a sense of home and contentment filled him, but his mind strayed to Iris. Fucking, Iris.
She was a bundle of complications.
The women he tended to date were sleek and sophisticated...and easy—not in the sense they readily had sex with him. He'd pamper them, act the gentleman, be honest when the inevitable question “Where do you see our relationship going?” When things ended they tended to part amicably. His relationships, his life, for the most part, all fit into a nice, neat, and easy box.
The Iris he’d slept with had given him the impression she didn’t give a shit what anyone thought of her. Then again their time in the hotel room seemed to be... Life outside of it didn’t matter. He was a man with an appetite, and she was a woman who didn’t mind sating his hunger.
Now she was a woman he’d gotten pregnant, who didn’t have familial support from what he could see, and was hungry for touch but nothing else.
A woman who was probably in his bathroom bawling her eyes out because her father was a dick. And he still had the need to take care of her, because who else would? His sister wouldn’t do any better than him. She’d turn mama bear and break some shit. That was out.
So that left him keeping his mouth shut and taking care of her himself. As much as it warmed him to have his family here, he had to take care of the one that couldn’t take care of itself just yet.
He stepped off the threshold and went to where his mother had taken up residence next to Wade, who sprawled on the porch chair, a water bottle dangling between his fingers. His blue eyes were clear.
“You scare her off already?” Wade asked. “That didn't take long.”
Knowing his friend was pulling his leg, Porter scratched his eyebrow with his middle finger. His mother narrowed her eyes but didn’t say anything. He said to his friend, “I thought finding your other half was supposed to mellow you.”
“My other half isn't here.” Wade sighed then made a face. “She's helping someone else get their career together. I miss her and it makes me grumpy. How the mighty have fallen and all that.”
Too amused by the ramble, Porter patted his friend's shoulder. “It happens to the best of us.”
His friend's gaze narrowed. “You?”
“Make a to-go plate,” Porter replied and focused on his mother.
She’d twisted her kinky curls for the occasion and set them free. She looked happy for him. He’d never truly realized how lucky he’d been until now.
