But when she moved her arm, I was a little more focused on the way her tits moved in her dress. She looked like a goddess in her skin tight red dress.

“It seems…fancy,” she said.

“Yeah.” I ran my fingers through my hair. “I honestly have no idea why Mason is being so formal about it. He’s not usually into all that. But I definitely want you to come.”

“Well…okay. If you’re sure. I really could just spend the night here. I still have a few things to unpack.”

“Which Ellen will do.”

Penny smiled. “I hid a few boxes from her so she wouldn’t have to do any more work.”

“You’re ridiculously cute. But you’re not staying here tonight.” We’d been glued together all week. And I’d never felt so at peace in New York City before. Tonight I was heading into the belly of the beast. And I needed her beside me. She calmed me.

I was nervous enough about going to the part of town I used to frequent. But I was also nervous about trying to clear the air with Mason and Matt. And I didn’t like when I felt nervous. It made me feel out of control.

“Come here,” I said to Penny.

She closed the distance between us and smiled up at me.

“I want you there. End of story.” I tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. “Besides, you’re already all dressed. And you’re going to be the best surprise for them.” My hands slid to her ass.

“Oh, no,” Rob said and walked into our room unannounced.

I let go of Penny’s ass. Couldn’t he knock?

“Did you already tell Mason and Matt that you have a surprise for them? Because remember when you told me you had a surprise for me? And then showed me Penny? They’re going to think she’s a prostitute, man. That they get to share.”

“I don’t think Mason and Matt share women,” I said. At least not that I remembered. “Besides, Mason has already met Penny. He knows she’s my girlfriend.”

“Well, there’s a first time for everything. Penny is plenty sharable.”

Penny frowned. “What does that mean?”

“That there’s enough of you to go around,” Rob said.

“Excuse me?”

“Chill,” Rob said. “I’m not making a comment about your weight. But your tits.” He groaned. “And your ass. It’s enough to share is all I meant.”

She picked up a pillow off the bed and threw it at him.

Rob caught it with one hand before it hit him. “If you want to hit me, I prefer you do it with your hands. Or your tits.” He winked at her.

“Your brother is impossible,” Penny said and turned to me.

“Rob, quit it.”

“What did I do?” he asked.

“You know what you did.”

“I do not.”

I shook my head. “Be respectful of my fiancée.”

“You know the rules, man. If there’s only an engagement ring, a girl is still fair play.”

“What happened to bros before hoes?”
