I started laughing.

“I’m joking!”

“See, that’s why I don’t fuck with you.”

“You literally just stole my food.”

“One slider.”

“That’s how it starts.”

He shook his head, laughing.

“Everything good, baby?”

I looked over.

Xay.

He had walked up so quietly I hadn’t even noticed.

“Yeah.” I looked at him. “I’m good. Just talking to Levin.”

Xay’s eyes moved to his brother.

Xay slid his arm around my waist and pulled me against his side.

I looked down at his hand.

Then up at him.

“You finally going to speak to Heather?” I asked.

His jaw moved.

“Yeah.”

“Good.”

I took another bite of my slider.
