I whispered just for her and Kayson, “We couldn’t go another day without seeing you. The texts weren’t enough. The calls or seeing you through a screen was never enough.”
“We’ll figure out where this is gonna go, but we needed to come in person to let you know you mean a fuckin’ lot to us, Rommy,” Kayson said before he kissed us both on the head.
She sniffed and lifted her gaze. Tears brimmed, but she was grinning big. “Walking away from you two broke my heart, but today, you’ve both healed it again. You both care about me and knowing that couldn’t make me happier. I know it’s weird and strange, and I don’t expect anything back, but the time I spent with you two was the best in my life. I knew the love I had for you two is ginormous. Fills me up each and every time I think of you both, and that’s a lot. Like a lot.” She nodded.
She loves us.
She said it.
Kayson’s fingers slid into her hair, and he stared down at her with an intense gaze before he roughly asked her, “You love us?”
“With everything I have, and I’m sorry if it’s too much and?—”
I pressed two fingers to her lips. “We travelled the world to get to you because you hold a piece of our hearts in you. Having you gone with those pieces dimmed our world. You belong with us, Rommy. Kayson and I love each other so much, but our love extends to you too.”
“Shit,” she snapped before burying her face again to cry. We just held her tighter.
Kayson leaned down and kissed the back of her neck. “Eve’s right. You have our love, little devil.”
“You guys!” she cried, lifting her face and wiping at it as she took a step away. “I can’t stop leaking. I’m just so happy.”
“Have at it then, Rom,” Kayson said.
“I’m glad they’re happy tears, Rommy.”
She let out a strangled laugh. “You both love me.”
We smiled, and I said, “We do.”
“That means, when I don’t have tears and snot all over my face, I can kiss you both.”
Kayson chuckled. “Yeah, Rommy. You can.”
“I want to do more too,” she announced. “Since you guys love me.” It was like she couldn’t believe we did and had to keep saying the words. Not that we minded. We’d reassure her all the time if we had to.
Kayson winked. “We’re down for doin’ more.”
Her gaze swung to me. “Eve, are you comfortable?”
“With you, I believe anything is possible.”
When a strangled moan escaped her, she covered her face. “Too sweet.”
I noticed some napkins on a table and pointed them out to Kayson. While he went and got some, I moved up beside Rommy to trace my hand over her back.
A door opened, and a tall guy with facial hair stomped in. He stopped and took in Rommy crying. “What the fuck is goin’ on?”
“Hi, I’m?—”
“Rommy, kid, you good? Did they do somethin’? Want me to kick their arses? Where the hell is everyone? Don’t move another muscle towards them, big guy. You might be a mammoth, but I can still fuck you up.”
Rommy laughed. “Dive.” She wiped at her face and sniffed up.
Kayson kept walking back to us.
“Don’t move,” Dive clipped. He picked up a chair, like he was going to throw it at Kayson, and I stopped breathing. I didn’t want to hurt anyone in Rommy’s family, but I’d put a stop to it somehow before he got close to Kayson. Hell, I’d even do the same for Rommy if anyone in the Diamond MC threatened her with a chair.
“Oh my God,” Rommy breathed, stepping in front of me as she laughed again. “Love you, Dive, but don’t threaten my people.” Kayson handed Rommy the napkins.
