“She hasn’t given me a reason to be jealous.” Alec said after a moment.
“So, you would be okay if a random guy came over here and gave her a hug?” Emmy pushed.
“If a random guy tried to touch her, she would probably throat punch him.” Alec said, without even
thinking about it. Emmy grudgingly had to agree to that.
“Whatever. One day, one of you will get jealous and I will be here tough and say I told you so.” Emmy
stood up and pointed her finger at us. “It will happen and you two…. will have iting.” She stormed
out
as Jasper tried to hide his smile but went after her.
“When was thest time she gotid?” Alec asked me.
“Apparently, Jasper isn’t holding up his end of the bargain.” Iughed as Alec finished eating. “Do you
get
jealous?” I asked.
“Only before we were mates. You didn’t want to open up to me and I had a hard time reading you.” Alec
shrugged. I knew there was more. I’m sure he would never admit it but I think Ace made him really
jealous.
“Hmm…” That almost sounded like a challenge but I had more respect for him than to make him
jealous.
“Don’t you f ucking dare try.” Damit, he caught on.
“ME? I would never do that to you.” I faked being hurt. Alec rolled his eyes at me as he got up and too.
our trash to the trash. I heard some girls giggling a table over, I didn’t realize we had an audience.
“Ready?” Alec asked as he came back and pushed in his chair.
“Yeah. I am.” Standing up, I walked in front of him the whole way to the car. Part of me wanted to take
our
bikes but if we needed to bring anything back with us, that wouldn’t be good. However, I would be able
to
tease him this way too. As he pulled out, he floored it, making me toss my phone in the back.
“Really?” Alec asked. “That was a tad dramatic.”
“Oh, sorry.” I said as I turned around to grab my phone. Shoving my as s over at him, I made it look
difficult
to get my phone.
“Do you need help?” Alec asked after a minute.
“Nope. I got it here.” Sitting back up, I gotfortable again.
“Good.” Alec moved his hand to rest on my thigh.

“Have you seen my
Tor
“No, why?”
“Just curious”
“You’re talkative today.” Alec muttered.
“Sorry?” Slightly hurt, I looked out the window.
“I’m not saying it’s a bad thing but you’re acting strange.”
“Stranger than Emmy?”
“No one is stranger than Emmy.” Alec concluded.
“True.” Feeling slightly defeated, I just looked out the window and tried to act sullen and moody like he
thought I should be acting. We didn’t talk the rest of the way to the my store. Which, surprised me. I
was
feeling rather hurt and annoyed but he didn’tment. Instead, I just kept my mouth shut and when we
got there, I went inside without waiting for him.
Everything was there but still wrapped up. The chairs needed assembled, my officeptop was still in
its
package and there was ayer of dust around everything. Taking a moment to look around, I started
with
the front. The front desk was taller. Penny got it right with how it would allow me to see the entire shop
and still have privacy. Behind it, was my office. It wasn’trge since we didn’t have much room to sta*
with but it was private. A small desk sat against the wall. What surprised me was a nket covering
something in the car corner. It wasrger but a sign on it said, ‘Ice-Keep out’.
Moving on, there was a built in 360 mirror beside the bathroom. They had indeed created more room i
the bathroom but kept theyout the same. The sage green I had picked was amazing. It was honestly
everything I envisioned this being. The cabs looked great. The ink room was slender but had a ton
of
shelves. A single countertop was waist high so I couldy out what I needed. This was perfect. Just
what
I wanted and needed.
