She shakes her head. “He wouldn’t inform me something, both.”

Drew tells us to go sit on the desk with out him. I can hear him rummaging round as we take our seats.

“I’m beginning to get a bit of frightened,” says Bailey quietly.

Me too, however I don’t wish to make her really feel worse, so I take her hand. “I’m certain he’s simply winding us up. What on earth might it presumably be?”

“He might be asking us to return to our flats,” she says, ticking off every merchandise on her fingers. “Telling us each he desires to see different individuals. Telling me he solely desires to be with you, and never with me in any case.”

“You possibly can’t be critical,” I say, really shocked by the final one.

Bailey flushes. “It’s crossed my thoughts.”

“Andrew!”

“For crying out loud, I’m proper right here,” says Drew, wincing as he walks up proper as I’m in the midst of shouting for him.

“Inform Bailey you’re not about to dump her so we could be a couple.”

Drew’s face goes clean with shock. Bailey groans and covers her face together with her palms. Drew units some papers down on the desk and goes to his knees subsequent to her chair. He pulls her palms away from her face, holding them tightly in his personal.

“By no means,” he says, forcing her to have a look at him. “By no means. Do you hear me?”

“I do know it’s silly,” she says, squeezing her eyes shut.

“It’s not silly,” I say.

“And I’ll inform you as many instances as you want to hear it,” he says, nodding to incorporate us each. “Each of you. I would like you each.” He squeezes her palms once more, lifting them to press a kiss to every one. “Okay?”

“Okay,” Bailey whispers. She reaches for me blindly; I catch her hand and wind our fingers collectively, squeezing.

“Proper,” says Drew, standing as much as take his seat. “So. I’ve requested you right here right this moment—give up snickering at me, Coop, I’m critical—I’ve requested you right here right this moment as a result of I feel there’s one thing we have to focus on.”

“Clearly,” I say, glancing at Bailey. I’m attempting to lighten the temper, however I’m afraid she’s nonetheless not appeased. There’s a very glorious method to get round that—Bailey’s shit at being upset when she will get bare—however Drew’s adamant about speaking about no matter that is.

“You understand I really like you each,” he says, ready till he’s certain he has our consideration. “And you realize I respect you and I worth your opinions.”

“Okay, now I’m beginning to get scared,” I say. Drew presses on.

“So for those who say no, we will nonetheless again out of this.” Drew faucets on the papers on the desk. He doesn’t say the rest.

A protracted second passes.

“Again out of what?” Bailey lastly prompts.

“Oh,” Drew jumps a bit of. “Yeah. Um. Right here.” He pushes the papers at us.

Bailey reads sooner than I do. She appears up at him virtually instantly.

“Is that this what I feel it’s?”

Drew rubs a hand over the again of his neck. “In the event you assume it’s a proposal for the home over on Melbourne Road then sure, it’s what you assume it’s.”

“You made a proposal on a home?”

“It’s acquired 5 bedrooms,” says Drew defensively. “The homeowners are actually motivated. It’s a good time to purchase.”

The person appears positively terrified, a lot so I can’t assist however snort. And as soon as I begin, I can’t appear to cease. Bailey catches my eye and begins laughing too.
