With a grin, I open the game up on my phone and we huddle together to watch on the small screen. Flynn gets through another inning without letting anyone on base. I breathe a sigh of relief.
“He looks a lot like you,” Sabrina says.
“Yeah?” I ask.
She nods. “Why baseball?”
“He played basketball in high school too. Even had some offers for college scholarships, but baseball was always his number one passion.”
“Never football?”
“Nah.” I shake my head. “Three older brothers, four really with Brogan, he was more interested in paving his own way than following in our footsteps.”
“Big footsteps to fill.”
“Something tells me he’s going to be bigger than all of us. Twenty years old and stepping up for his team in October?” I shake my head. The pressure he must feel. Or fuck, maybe he doesn’t feel it at all.
“You’re proud of him. It’s sexy.” She lifts on to her toes and kisses me.
“Ooooh. I didn’t realize all this talk about my brother was turning you on.” I scrunch up my face.
“Youturn me on.”
“I’d like to.” My hands slide down to her ass.
She taps me lightly with one finger and then motions with her chin behind me, indicating someone is there. I growl against her lips, nipping the bottom one before I turn around.
Brogan and London stand there amused.
“Oh, fuck, it’s just them.” I turn back around and kiss her again. She giggles into my mouth. When we break apart, I open my stance to let them in. I wonder how long until we can leave.
“Are you following the game?” Brogan asks.
“Of course.”
His grin widens. “Hendrick says the bar is more packed than it’s ever been. And Knox says it’s insane sitting at the game and listening to the home crowd chanting Flynn’s name.”
“I am on the same group text thread as you.” Truth be told I love hearing it, even for the second time.
“God I wish we were there.” He can barely contain his excitement. On a daily basis, Brogan is the unrestrained version of my feelings. While I’m more reserved, he wears his emotions on his sleeve.
“Same.”
Sabrina looks up at me all doe-eyed, reminding me of her comment a few moments ago.
“I’mreallyproud of Flynn,” I say, then brush my lips against hers.
When I pull back, she rolls her eyes, but she snuggles a little closer.
“Okay. Not sure what’s happening here, but you two aren’t allowed to have inside jokes without me.” Brogan waggles a finger between me and Sabrina.
“I’m sorry,” I say, faking guilt. “Did you want to hear how your sister finds me sexy and I turn her on?”
Sabrina squeezes my arm, eyes wide. Her hands lift and she signs,What the hell?
Sorry, but it had to be done. He’s so nosey,I sign back.
“It’s funny because I know what you’re saying. Also, Arch?” He waits until I look at him, then flips me the bird.
