Alex steps back and smiles up at me while stroking my cheek. “Tommy, I—”
“Ugh, gross.”

“I’m positive,” she tells me. “Go on. I’ll be there soon.”
I kiss her cheek and hesitantly leave her with the scummy chick that can’t seem to leave Parker alone. And now she seems like she doesn’t want to leave Alex alone.
I hope she doesn’t become a problem that I have to handle.
