Peabody barks as I take him. As soon as he’s close enough, he licks my face.

“Thank you for keeping him so long.” Sara squeezes between Wyatt and me, and Peabody leaps toward her from my arms. She catches him with a laugh. “I missed you too.”

“It was no problem.” Tanya steps back. “I’ve got to go, but if you need me to walk him...”

“I’ll text you my schedule.” Sara moves back and sets Peabody down. Tanya waves goodbye and I close the door behind her.

Peabody runs over to Drew and jumps up on his leg.

“What can I say? We’re friends for life.” Drew picks Peabody up and holds him. He sniffs Finn and then turns to look at Wyatt. A low growl rumbles in his throat.

“I see absence hasn’t made the heart fonder.” I chuckle as I pass Wyatt.

“Fuck off,” he says. “Quiet, furball.”

We head up to the second floor where the primary is.

“If we need to do renovations, we can. I know a guy.” Drew pushes open the double doors and puts Peabody down on the wood floor.

I step up behind Sara and wrap my arms around her waist, resting my chin on her head. “What do you think, pip?”

“It’s a large room, plenty big enough for your new bed.” She tips her head to look up at me with a playful smile. “What do you think, boss? Are we all going to sleep together or is this going to be a multiple-bed situation?”

“We should all sleep together.” Finn opens the door to the closet.

“You just want to fuck her in her sleep,” Wyatt says, shaking his head.

A little shiver goes through Sara.

“It’s easier than picking your lock.” Finn comes out of the closet and winks at Sara. “A handy skill to have since Wyatt doesn’t like to share.”

“Wyatt’s good with sharing.” Drew stops next to Wyatt and bumps his shoulder against him. “Isn’t that right, fuck buddy?”

Wyatt closes his eyes and pinches the bridge of his nose. “Seriously? Is this like a reality show? Can we vote someone off the island?”

Sara fake gasps. “Absolutely not.”

While Sara might love sleeping with all of us, I can see some issues arising if we don’t have space away from each other too. We’re definitely not used to sharing.

“Maybe we go ahead and set up bedrooms for each of us. It’s not like we don’t have the room.” I rub Sara’s arm when she makes a disappointed noise. “We’re still adjusting to each other.”

“But we did so well at the other house.” Sara looks up at me with those sad green eyes.

I’ve never been the sucker for those. “We just got you back. Maybe we’ll all still end up in here, but we should have the option.”

I glance at Drew and Wyatt standing in the doorway to the bathroom, bickering like an old married couple. Sara takes a deep breath.

“Point taken, but I still don’t like it.” She snuggles into me.

“Until you’re safe, pip, we’ll stay together. Okay?”

She nods and grabs my hand. “Let’s get this tour finished so we can move in.”

The bathroom has a large shower and separate tub. It’s only a double vanity, but it has a separate water closet, which is nice. It has two walk-in closets that are massive. More than enough to share if we also have our own rooms to keep our stuff in.

There are two guest bedrooms on this floor with a shared hallway bathroom. And upstairs has a massive loft area.

“This might work as a home office.” Wyatt stands by a window that looks out over the street.
