“It’s just like high school all over again. The big brother and the best friend being overprotective of Libby,” Maegan said, walking by Grace and Libby. She opened the door to the garage. “Last I checked, she was over eighteen, Will, and she isn’t your girlfriend, Luke.” Maegan looked over her shoulder at Luke and made a face. “So, she’s free to dress however she sees fit.”
I glanced over at Libby as she looked at Will and Luke.
“That’s right. I’m a”—she glared at Luke—“single woman, who is ready to have some fun.”
She turned and followed Grace, Maegan, Taylor, and Lauren out the door.
Colt walked up to me and took me by the arm. “Alex, you can’t let Lauren go out, looking like that. And did you see how Taylor was dressed? And what in the hell are you wearing?”
I smiled at Colt and gently removed his hand. I took a few steps back and smiled at three of the most important men in my life.
“I love all three of you, so I’m gonna keep it real. Two of you have your heads up your ass.” I looked at Colt. “Stop letting Lauren push you away.” I turned to Luke. “Stop pushing Libby away, you ass. Now, pull out the romantic shit that I know both of you have and do something about it. Frankly, I’m sick and tired of seeing the two of you mope around because you’re both too damn afraid.”
Will was smiling from ear to ear. “God, I love you.” He walked up and took me in his arms.
He kissed me as Colt walked by.
“She’s still my sister, you prick. Get your hand off her ass,” Colt said.
When Will pulled his lips from mine, he smiled. “You have no idea how turned-on I am right now.”
“Oh, Jesus H. Christ. Get a room,” Luke said as he pulled Will away from me.
Luke took my arm and led me outside. I giggled as I looked back at Will.
This is going to be one very long evening.
After eating dinner at an Italian restaurant in Corpus, we headed to a dance club. I glanced over to the dance floor and saw all the girls dancing. They had pretty much been just dancing together in their little group since we got here.
Luke and Colt were talking about an idea Colt had for logging in the vaccinations for the cattle. I was just about to give my input when Luke quickly stood up.
