Perfect Strangers

“It will be only one person, fucking Brody!”

With an apologetic look towards her he let out a small growl before rolling his eyes and untangling his hold on her and headed towards the door. “What do you want?” he ground out as he opened the door to see Brody, Cass, Avery, and Stavros stood like little children, with wide eyes and excitable faces.

“I need the keys to your place,” replied Brody.

“Why? You’ve got your own keys?”

“I didn’t bring them, I need them,” he replied as he stood nodding his head towards Cass and winked.

Rolling his eyes, Kai dug out his keys and threw them to him. “You stay out of my room.”

“So, are you coming home tonight?” he asked with a raised eyebrow.

Cass’s eyes grew wide and a snort left her mouth when she clocked Myla slowly walking towards them over Kai’s shoulder. “What the hell have you done to her, Kai? She looks like she’s been dragged through a hedge backwards?” laughed Cass.

Turning to face her as she stopped at his side, he slinked his arm around her shoulder and pulled her in closer. “We made up,” smiled Myla.

“I suppose you lot had something to do with Myla being here tonight, am I, right?” Kai asked with a raised eyebrow.

“It was all Cass, she planned the whole thing, blame her,” replied Brody. He winced when she elbowed him in the stomach and whispered something unintelligible to the rest of the group. His eyes grew wide and then he looked at Kai, “It was me too,” he replied quickly, looking pained.

With a smug smile, Cass winked at Myla. “You’re welcome by the way. Now you guys go have fun and Myla? I want all the details tomorrow.”

With a cackled laugh, she grabbed Brody’s arm and dragged him away from the door.

“I’m so glad you guys are back together, Myla’s been lost without you. Look after her,” scowled Avery. She leant in and kissed Myla’s cheek before pulling Stavros in the same direction as Brody and Cass.

“And then there was just us, again,” Kai whispered.

Turning around to face him, she grabbed his shirt and pulled him closer. “I love you, Kai Baxter.”

“Say it again,” he whispered.

“I love you,” she laughed

and leant into kiss him. “Let’s get out of here,” she whispered.

“Where do you want to go?” he questioned as he looked at her longingly. “I’ll take you anywhere you want to go.”

“There’s only one place I want you to take me, Romeo,” she replied.

“Oh? And where might that be, Juliet?” he asked after her as he watched her walk through the door and head towards his car.

“Euphoria,” she shouted with a laugh.

EPILOGUE

With a small laugh escaping her mouth, Myla dished up the usual Saturday morning full English breakfast and listened to Cass and Avery squabble across the table, like two-year old’s.

“I’ve put you extra, Cass,” she smiled placing the full plates down on the table, cutting them off from their bickering.

“Awesome bitch, I’m so hungry I could eat everyone’s breakfast,” she mumbled and quickly began shoveling a fork full into her mouth.

Avery winced as she glared at her across the table. Picking up the bridal magazine she turned to Myla, “What about this one?”

“It’s too short,” she replied with a roll of her eyes.

“Okay, this one?” she asked hopefully.
