I couldn’t even pretend to be annoyed with him as the ride stopped. He stood up first, grinned at me and held out his hand.

Chapter 12

We were all physically exhausted when we got back to base. Mentally, we all were too wired to sleep like we wanted to, even though it wasn’t that late in the day.

As soon as we got in, I immediately carried all my bags to my room.

“Can you guys throw all your dirty laundry in your hampers? I’ll come by and wash them for us tonight,” I stated as they placed some of my bags on my couch.

“Laundry can wait,” Remy stated as he climbed onto my bed and laid down on it.

“You should probably go through your bags and decide what you want to keep,” Noah added as he took the other side of my bed.

“You know Jemmy and the girls will be over here the moment their duty day ends,” Drake said dryly as he took a seat on the floor.

“Can we choose some of the outfits we want you to keep?” Jaxson asked hopefully as he began to sift through my bags.

I laughed. “Sure,” I said as I began to take some of the clothes out and laid them on the foot of my bed.

My phone chimed, and I pulled it out. I saw that it was Anna.

Tink: Hey girl, did you get home yet?

Blake: Just walked through the doors. We’re sifting through all the clothes you got me. Thanks again! It really wasn’t necessary!

Tink: Umm…you took a bullet for me!

Blake: I did my job lol

Tink: Whatevvs! Don’t become a stranger!

Blake: I won’t!

Tink: Have you heard from Lincoln?

I grimaced, hoping I wouldn’t have to talk about him again.

Blake: No.

Tink: He’ll come around.

Blake: I won’t hold my breath.

Tink: Mark my words.

I laughed and shook my head. “That was Anna,” I explained to the guys. “She wanted to know if Lincoln contacted me yet.”

“Did he?” Remy asked with a frown.

I laughed wryly. “Nope. Don’t you think I would have told you if he had?”

“Well, we do know how private you liked to be when we were making our connections,” Noah teased.

I mock-glared at him. “Talking about conversations and sharing details on intimacies are two completely different things. If he contacted me, I would let you guys know. It’s just as important for you guys as it is for me.”

“I want to see you in this and this,” Jaxson stated, apparently done with the conversation as he held up a scarlet red dress that looked like it would fit Ella better than me and a long white and powder blue fairy/ seductress dress.

I looked at the red dress dubiously but then reminded myself that we would be leaving soon for our weekend getaway to his playoff game. We were bound to go out for dinner sometime that weekend, so I could wear it for him.
