CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
I couldn’t get enough of the way Lucy looked at Chase…or Hush. I mean, he was Hush at dinner while Lauren was there but before she came, he was so much fun. He was so alive and cool. With her there, he was quiet and gave one or two-word answers.
Still, the chemistry smoldered between him and Lucy.
She was in love.
I felt it.
I hoped he didn’t think I was a creep for smiling every time he shared a look with my sister. I wasn’t. I could feel the love in my chest though. Whatever she felt, I felt. It was such a nice contrast to how I’d been feeling since watching Eric nearly rape her.
“Twin, let’s go in the kitchen,” Lucy said standing. I nodded and followed her.
“You okay?” I asked.
“I had to get away from Carmen.”
“Luce, she’s playing nice tonight,” I pointed out.
“She’s trying to get Abel’s dick later on.” I cringed and shook my head. I did not want to hear anything about my brother’s dick. “I want her to leave, Sissy,” she whined and laid her head on my shoulder.
“Hopefully she will after dinner is over,” I said. I hooked my pinky with hers and pulled her over to me.
“Are you okay, Nora? I’ve been crying so much these past few days and every time I do, I think about you. Are you still sad over Eric?” She tucked my hair back and kissed my lips.
“Yeah, but seeing you with your new boo makes me very happy.” I gripped her hips and she gripped mine.
“He’s really great,” she sighed in that dreamy tone that couples newly in love have. It was light, soft, and beautiful.
“He’s huge and so handsome, Luce. You did good.”
“He’s six-eight,” she told me like she still hadn’t gotten used to the fact.
“Shit.”
“I know. That’s what I said when he told me. I mean, I’ve worked with the man for a year and I thought he was at least six-seven so I shouldn’t be shocked but he’s damn near seven feet tall and he has the dick to match.” We both laughed identical laughs then covered our mouths once we realized how loud we were.
“Did you tell him we like to kiss and fool around?” I asked her knowingly. I could tell by the look on Chase’s face when we kissed at the door that he didn’t know.
“Not yet. Soon.”
“Okay. Soon.” She stared at me and pushed her fingers through my long hair. We kissed and I slipped her my tongue. I pulled back when I saw Chase’s hulking figure appear in the doorway. “Or…now.” I tapped her shoulder and she spun around to see her man looking mighty perplexed.
“Hey…” She grinned like she did when she was nervous.
“Hey yourselves. What the hell is going on, Crazy?” He pulled her against him like she was his property and God it was hot. His strong, tattooed forearm locked around her and made her look like a waif.
“So, there’s something I need to tell you about me and Nora.” We were both jittering balls of nerves.
“I’m listening.” He kissed her neck and I turned my head to hide the blushing. I wanted a Chase for myself. Did they sell them in stores? Could I apply for one like a credit card?
“We like to kiss,” we both said.
“I can tell. Is thatallyou two do?”
“Yeah. We kiss and feel each other up. It’s one of the many perks of having someone with the same DNA as you. It’s like masturbation,” Lucy shrugged.
“It’s not but we’ll go with that,” Chase laughed.
