“You drove all the way into the city?” She nods against my palm as it rests on her cheek. “You can’t miss his first steps.” Fucking hell.
Deal, but wait. Did you save my number in your phone? I’m honored, Miss Unattached. Yeah. Yeah. You know what this means, right? We’re in a committed relationship now. Omg. Am I your first? You popped my committed relationship cherry, Kennedy Kay. Double honored.
“I can’t believe I’m going to be in Ryan Shay’s wedding,” Rio sighs. “A dream come true for me, really.”
“Rio, you’re staying, yeah?” “Yes! And I’m sleeping in Ryan Shay’s bed.” “No, you’re not.” She turns to Kennedy and me. “I have two more guest rooms. You can each have one.”

“Why? Why would that be there?

And that’s you, Miller.” He shakes his head. “And it’s in there because I’m so fucking in love with you, it’s too painful not to be able to see you every second of the day.”
“Kai,” I cry, fresh tears streaming down my face. “You can’t. We just…we got caught up in this. We had rules.” “Fuck your rules, Miller!” he bursts, pacing the hallway that leads to his room. “I’m not asking you to love me back.”
