“Little sister is bossy,” Orion mutters as he walks by the living room.
“There we go! I found a volunteer,” Layla crows as I giggle at her.
“Want to take me out on the town to make sure my little sister isn’t cut up into little pieces on her online date, babe?” I ask, fluttering my eyelashes.
“Why are you so pretty even when you look like you’re having an aneurysm,” he mutters as he walks into the room. Smirking, I shake my head. He’s right, it’s not a great look for me.
“Are you up for taking me out?” I ask. “You can run him through your databases if needed.”
“The two of you together are trouble, aren’t you?”
“Yep,” Layla confirms. “So yes or no? He’s waiting for an answer.”
“I don’t think I’ve ever taken you out on a proper date, Lennon. So yes,” he says with a slow, sexy smile. I’m not one to care about going on dates with how crazy our schedules are, but I really want to do this with Orion.
He has so many firsts that we haven’t done. Fuck yes, I want this.
“Yes.” I nod. “Do you want to make sure he’s not a crazy person?”
“Absolutely,” she says as she finishes messaging Tyler. “I want to lose my virginity, not end up as a skin suit. Will you find out what you can, please, Orion?”
Orion blinks slowly at her, a blush crawling up the back of his neck. “There’s so much that I’m uncomfortable with in what you just said, but yes I can run a background check on him,” he says, taking my phone from her. “I’ll be back with this later, Little Love.”
I nod to show that I know he’s talking to me before turning back to Lay. “You did that on purpose,” I hiss as he walks away, amusement in my voice. “Poor O.”
“I can’t believe he’s still so uncomfortable with the topic of sex,” she says.
“I think it’s more that he sees you as his little sister now too,” I explain. “So he had multiple icks in what you said.”
“Ohh… okay that’s really sweet then. I promise to try not to fuck with him as much,” she says, grinning impishly. “Oh my god! I can’t believe I’m going on a date!”
I let myself get taken away by her squeals, because this is normal and fun, and I didn’t realize how much I needed this.
“What are you wearing?” I know full well she hasn’t thought that far along.
“Lenny, please help me. I have no idea!”
I jerk my head toward the stairs, excited. “Let’s go check my closet while the babies are sleeping,” I chuckle. Derek is out on the back porch, getting used to tandem wearing them in the baby carrier.
Layla shoots across the room so fast, I snicker as I follow her upstairs.
“I hear you’re going on a hot date.” Turner grins as I pass him in the hallway.
“I am, wanna help me find an outfit?”
“Too bad we can’t rip it off you,” he grumbles.
Think I should tell them that oral is still on the table? I’m kind of enjoying their blue balls at the moment.

“Fook me,”Roark mutters as Layla and I walk down the stairs to say goodbye to them. “Please don’t lose your virginity in the club tonight, Lay.”
Layla snorts. “Why not? It’s totally romantic,” she teases him.
Tori came over to hang out with Tesa, and they snicker at Roark’s face. “Miguel’s club sees a lot of sexual activity, let’s just say that. Don’t look too closely in the shadowed corners and you’ll be fine.” Tori shrugs.
“Oh my god,” Layla breathes. “I thought Ror was kidding.”
