Oh, he would be.
“I will keep showing up,” he said. “Even if she tries to ditch me. I’ll sleep in the park and follow her.”
Yeah, that was the right answer.
“Oh, my God! He learns,” Zayn said.
Dakota gave him a kiss on the mouth, freaking the man out.
“What the hell, Dude! I don’t know where your mouth has been. That’s like Jagger jumping the Major in the bathroom. There could be spunk everywhere!”
Jagger was accustomed to being the target of Zayn’s antics.
And he liked it.
“Get a black light, germaphobe,” he said, smacking him in the body armor. “I’ve marked my territory and you’ll never know where.”
Zayn looked horrified.
“Yeah, there too,” he said, pretending to read his mind.
Dakota would love to hang out and laugh with them, but he had a woman to get to forgive him, and that was a huge-ass task.
“Okay, I’ll check in later.”
He paused.
“She’s not in danger, right?” he asked. “This morning was just you setting me up, correct?”
They all nodded.
“Nope. She’s hidden. Make sure she stays that way,” Rogue said.
Immediately, he relaxed.
He was glad.
“We’re heading out to shake down some cops. Check-in,” Jagger said. “And bring tools and snacks—like we told you.”
He got it.
“Thanks, guys.”
Zayn wasn’t done.
“Can I make one last suggestion?” he asked.
“Sure,” Dakota said.
“Before you stick your dick in her AGAIN, marry the lady. Because with your track record, you’re going to do something dumb as fuck, and she’s going to kill you.”
He stared at him.
Then, shrugged.
“Okay. I’ll marry her as soon as I can get her to say yes to me.”
They all stared at him.
