“Twin moment,” I say, pointing at them.It’s amazing how the twin thing is starting to show now that they’re close again.
“Anyway, I think we’ve given you enough time of dodging our questions,” Decker says, eyeing Foster and Hayes.
“Hold on, wait.”Hayes takes a stack of clothes into the bathroom, returning in jeans and a T-shirt, and sits on the bed.“Okay, let’s hear it.”
My forehead wrinkles.“I don’t kiss and tell.”
“Bullshit.”Decker tosses a nut in the air and catches it in his mouth.
“Try me,” Foster says, opening his mouth.Decker aims and throws, but it knocks off Foster’s teeth and shoots toward the window.“Again.”
I think I’m in the clear, that they’re too distracted playing juvenile games that I won’t have to talk to them about Hadley.Not that I don’t want to brag.
“So, what’s up?”Hayes eyes me.Leave it to him.He’s our captain for a reason.
I shrug.“We’re together now.”
The Davis twins stop what they’re doing and stare at me.
“Like, you hooked up?”Foster asks.
I shake my head and their mouths slowly fall open.“We’re together.We’re giving it a real shot.”
Even Hayes’s eyes widen, but he nods as if it took him a while to think about it.“Okay.You sure?”
“Fuck you.”
“You can’t blame us, Kodiak,” Decker says, pushing away the nuts.“I mean, you fake married her, and she’s your nanny.And you’re still contracted to her for how long?”
I’ve done the math.I did it before I asked her.If this goes south and I fuck this up, I’ll still own my end of the bargain, but I don’t see it going bad.“It’s fine.We’re on the same page.But I’m telling you guys, the feelings are there.”
Hayes walks over and holds out his hand.“I’m happy for you.Truly.”
Foster nods, crumpling his empty bag of chips.“Yeah, I’m proof it only takes the right woman.”
Decker doesn’t say much, but he’s never been a fan of this idea, so I’m not surprised.
My phone dings in my pocket, and I pull it out, seeing Hadley’s name.
“Hadley?”Hayes asks.
I nod.
“Well, there’s the difference.When is the last time he smiled when a woman messaged him?”Hayes laughs.
Hadley: I think I found her.
I blow out a breath, unsure why I started this search in the first place.
“What?”Decker asks.
I must be transparent with my facial expression.
Check out this Insta profile.
Do you remember if this was her?
I click on the links she sent.The girl is a blonde with bright blue eyes.
