Hayes

Yes.

Nash

100%.

Romeo

Absolutely.

Kingston

I just want to hear you say it so I can drop this mirror off at your house later, and you can check to see if you’ve still got your balls.

Kingston

Waiting.

It’s for Ruby.

Romeo

Done. I can find some handiwork at the gym or at the house.

Nash

I need some yard work done this weekend.

Hayes

My fence is falling apart, and it could use some paint.

Kingston

My heart is full, brother. I’ll find something for your lover’s brother to do.

Thanks.

I set my phone down and leaned back in my chair. I knew I shouldn’t be helping this asshole out.

But I knew that Ruby needed someone to step up and help her.

And for whatever reason, I wanted to be that guy.

“Do you guys need anything else?”I asked, as Kingston, Romeo, and Hayes sat at their usual table, though River wasn’t there. I knew Nash was home with Cutler, but I was fairly certain River was avoiding me. I had to make a real effort to hide my disappointment. He hadn’t come into the bar since the day I’d berated him for helping Rico.

Four days ago.

And I hadn’t seen him when I’d gone to the hospital to see my dad. I’d even gone at the times that I knew he usually went, but my father would say that River had come early that day.
