My phone chimes in my pocket, and I pull it out. It’s a text from Lori, a girl I see from time to time, asking if I’m coming out tonight. I reply that I decided to stay in, and she offers to come and keep me company when she gets off work.
It looks like I’m set for the night.
I look back through the kitchen window at Ria pointing Sophie toward the mixer on the counter.
Jefferson and Emmett come around the side of the house, carrying trash bags, and Jefferson follows my line of sight.
“Guess it’s a hen party in there tonight,” he grumbles.
“Yep. Just you two and a house full of women, old man.”
“Can we come and hang out with you and watch the game?”
“Sorry, I have plans.”
“Traitor.” He stomps off toward the garbage cans.
Emmett chuckles. “He can complain all he wants, but I know he loves having all his girls under one roof.”
“Thank goodness it’s a big roof.”
“Ain’t that the truth? Enjoy your night, Brax.”
He slaps me on the back and follows Jefferson, and I head to my apartment to get ready for my guest.
