I shook my head. “Apparently.”
Noah glared at the wall that separated the two rooms, then down at me. “What does he mean?”
Shit. I opened my mouth, but nothing came out. His brows shot up, and he stepped past me and ran into the living room.
“You hooked up with her?”
I ran in behind him, glaring at Gavin.
Gavin looked afraid for a second before looking at me. He sank into himself. “Sorry.”
Noah turned, looking back and forth between us. “Really? Gavin?”
“What’s that supposed to mean?” Gavin stood.
“I’m . . .” Noah let out a huff of a laugh. “Impressed.”
I dropped my face in my palms. This was my worst nightmare. I didn’t want them discussing this.
“I didn’t think I was the first, but I definitely didn’t think you would balls up before I did,” Noah said, and I glanced up to see them fist bump.
“Hey, no. None of that.” I pushed them away from each other.
“What?” Noah smirked. “Would you rather I be jealous?”
I shook my head.
“Ave, I’m used to this. I understand how it works. If my dads got mad at each other for spending time with my mom, they wouldn’t have lasted a week.”
He had a point.
“I won’t tell the others, but honestly, this is a good thing. For all of us,” he said, looking at Gavin. “Our relationships are getting stronger and more intimate. That’s something that makes me very happy.”
Gavin cocked his head. “That’s true. We’re all in this together, and seeing you guys didn’t make me jealous. I mean, yeah, I wouldn’t have minded trading places with you.” He elbowed Noah. “But I want all of us to be happy. You guys being together means that we’re moving in the right direction.”
I rubbed the back of my neck. This was better than them fighting. It was just weird and definitely something I’d have to get used to.
“Now, let’s hurry up. The others should be at my house by now.” He looked down at my bare legs, and I realized I was standing in front of both of them in just my bra and underwear.
I turned and ran up the back stairs to my room, ignoring the sound of laughter from below. Once I was decent and wearing a pair of jeans and a baggy t-shirt, I joined them again. Noah found all his clothes from the night before, and we headed over to Gavin’s. Luca’s car was parked on the street, but Sky’s was missing.
Daniel and Tessa were standing in the kitchen, watching Luca and Vince devour the stack of waffles on each of their plates.
“Hey, guys,” Vince waved with his fork while Luca just gave us a nod while chewing.
“Are you guys hungry? Have you had breakfast?” Daniel asked, turning to face the back counter.
“We haven’t,” Noah answered for both of us.
“Take a seat. We’ll have some more ready in a minute,” Tessa said as she mixed more batter.
“Better make the whole box. Sky can eat a dozen alone.” Gavin put his hand on my lower back, much lower than he normally would and ushered me to one of the bar stools.
Vince glanced at me, then Gavin’s hand, and back up at me with a raised brow. I waited for him to say something, but he just shoved another forkful in his mouth with a teasing look.
Noah passed behind us, brushing a kiss on the top of my head as he passed. Vince’s other brow rose, but he stayed quiet. I knew this was bold behavior for them, and I appreciated him not pointing it out, especially in front of Gavin’s parents.
When more waffles were ready, Daniel loaded a plate, and Noah took it and set it in front of me. I thanked him as Gavin reached forward and handed me the syrup bottle.
