Nanny for the Neighbors

“What, even you?” “What’s that supposed to mean?” Jack shrugs. “It’s just, I know you must meet a lot of girls at the club—” “I’m a professional! I! Don’t! Put! My! Dick! In! My! Clients!” I laugh, kissing the curve of his throat. “I know, baby. He’s just teasing.”

“God, I’ve missed you,” he tells my crotch. I snort. “Are you talking to me or my vagina?” He blinks innocently. “Both, baby!”

All this time, I’ve been so caught up in my own drama that I didn’t stop to think about the guys’ less-than-ideal family situations. Cyrus got disowned. Seb’s parents abandoned and lied to him. Jack’s family ignored him in favour of his athletic siblings. None of them have perfect families, but that hasn’t stopped them from making their own.
