she huffed. “Go on, big guy, get out of here. I’ve got this.” I stared at my best friend for a minute. She had been through some shit over the years too, and I felt horrible for not being a larger part of her life when she went off to college and got into all sorts of things she regretted. One of those things was getting pregnant by the wrong man. Knowing that Zeke stepped up and has given my bestie and her son the best life after everything she went through still warms my heart to this day.
“Where’s Josh?” I asked.
“Big Brother Kane has him today,” she told me with a wide grin plastered on her face. “We were going to head out Christmas shopping and then see if we could hide the presents somewhere clever. Erin flip-flopped her head from side to side in one of her crazy-quirky gestures and then shrugged her shoulders up and down once. “We ended up having hot sex in the shower instead. Also, on the balcony, and then…”
“We get the dirty little picture you’re attempting to paint,” my sister told her. Anna wasn’t a prude at all, she just never cussed. It was her thing. She always told me that if you couldn’t come up with better words, you weren’t using all of your creativity or your brain. My sister was an author though, so she had all the words at her disposal. I usually just had my middle finger.
“Oh Anna!” Erin sighed. “Do I need to have a talk with Joker about how to sex you up really good so that you’re less judgy when other people are enjoying it?”
“I’m not judgy, but Zeke is like my long-lost brother. There’s no way I want to hear about him taking you to pound-town all morning long.” Anna shivered. “Now, if you want to hear about what Joker and I get up to, I’ll let that marinate on your brain for a while.”
“Nah!” Erin hurriedly responded. “You’d take all the fun out of it without the dirty words. I can just imagine it… ‘Joker! Oh, wait! What is that? Do you have a Mag Light in your pocket, or are you just excited to see me!’ Then the scene fades to black and we never know if he threw you up against the wall, tossed you on the bed, fucked you dirty in the shower just so you could conveniently get clean again.” She waved the thoughts away. “No, you keep your fade to black sex to yourself, thank you very much.” I couldn’t help but laugh at the two of them. They had always gone back and forth with one another that way since Erin came back from college and Anna and I had grown so close.
“She’s laughing,” my sister announced.
“That’s a good sign,” Erin agreed with her.
“I’m sitting right here, you nuts!”
“We know,” they both said at once, which sent them both into a fit of giggles. I knew what they were doing and thank fuck! It was working.
“I was thinking that I could use some fresh ink from my bestie,” Erin blabbed out of nowhere.
“Won’t your husband, my former mentor, be upset that I’m adding to your collection?”
“Um, no! Besides, it’s my body. I can have anyone I want to ink me!”
I laughed at that. Zeke may not have started out in the MC, but he was just like those guys and fit right in once he joined. He was a possessive as fuck asshole. There was no way he’d allow just anyone to tat up his wife. Then again, I wasn’t just anyone. “You know what? Let’s go. I need to get out of this house for a bit anyway.”
“Are you bringing the kids with you?”
“No, she’s not,” Anna told me. “That’s what I was coming over here for anyway. I was going to offer to babysit for a while so you could get out. Turns out, I just had better timing than I thought.”
“Thanks, Sis.” I pulled Anna in for a hug. “I owe you.”
“Nothing. You owe me nothing. Now, go with Erin and enjoy the day.” I turned to head to my bedroom to go get dressed, since I was still in a pair of Deck’s boxers and the tank top that I’d slept in. “Wait, do you have plenty of Moo Juice stocked up in the fridge?”
“Moo Juice?”
“Oh, this should be good,” Erin clapped her hands waiting for my sister’s reply.
Anna cupped her boobs and gave
