ignores us,” Sean said.
    “I wish she would ignore me,” I said.
    “Scarlet, my mom likes you,” Sean said. “She would tell me if she didn’t.”
    Mike nodded. “She does, Scarlet. You’re just a little different for her.”
    “Different?”
    “Yeah. You actually have a personality,” Mike said.
    I laughed. “Thanks, I guess.”
    “Mom and Dad are making me sign a prenup,” Sean said.
    “That isn’t surprising. All they care about is money.” Mike looked at me. “I hope you don’t take it personal.”
    “I’m fine with it. Sean is the one who’s upset about it.”
    “It just pisses me off. It’s my marriage, you know?” Sean said.
    Mike shrugged. “We’re both momma’s boys. We do whatever she says. She used to breast feed us. That’s real love.”
    “Are you always this gross?” I asked.
    Mike turned to Sean. “You told her about Lucinda?”
    Sean grinned. “Yeah. That wasn’t my finest hour.”
    “And that dum b as fuck girl that believed you and I were the same person just so we could screw her?”
    Sean laughed. “I forgot about that. That was hilarious.”
    “Man, you have a good woman on your hands if she still sticks around.”
    “I tell Scarlet everything. If she hasn’t run for the hills yet, I don’t think she’s going to.”
    “Don’t pull that twin trick on me,” I said.
    “You did think I was Sean when we were in Vegas,” Mike reminded me.
    “But I didn’t try to sleep with you,” I said.
    Mike looked at me. “But you were rambling on about anal sex.”
    I felt my cheeks blush. “Oh no.”
    “Apparently, you like it or something?” he asked with a smile.
    Sean caught my embarrassment. “Okay. We’re done with that conversation.”
    “And my bo ther has a huge cock apparently?” Mike added.
    “ Look! Free laser tag!” Sean said.
    “What? Where?” Mike said, looking over his shoulder.
    Sean pulled me away before Mike turned back around.
    “Thanks for saving me,” I said as I started laughing.
    “It was either that or naked chicks. I didn’t think he would believe me if I said girls were walking around the park in nothing but heels.”
    “It’s Mike—I’m sure he would have.”
    “You’re probably right. Was he bothering you?”
    “No. We’re just talking.”
    “About what?”
    “Personal stuff.”
    “You’ve gotten really close to my brother.”
    “Well, he did risk his life to protect me.”
    “So did Ryan.”
    “And I can’t get any closer to him.”
    “I don’t know. It’s you guys we’re talking about here.”
    I pushed him gently. “Shut up.”
    “You know I’m joking, baby.”
    “So, when are you going to tell your parents?”
    “Oh. I guess when we get back.”
    “Should you tell Mike first?”
    “Nah. He said he didn’t want the company. I don’t think he’ll care either way.”
    “It’s always nice to be courteous.”
    “When has my brother ever been courteous?”
    “When he risked his life for me.”
    “Damn. He’s going to be exonerated for everything because of that.”
    “He should be.”
    He sighed. “You’re right.”
    We caught up with everyone and saw Andrew shake his hips as he danced on the green, spinning his club around.
    “I’m guessing your dad won the game?”
    “You’ve never seen his victory dance?”
    “No,” I said with a laugh.
    “He does it with everything.”
    “It’s cute.”
    “Not when you’re playing ball with your friends.”
    “It’s cute no matter what context it’s in.”
    He rolled his eyes. “Sometimes I worry yo u’re going to leave me for my dad or my brother.”
    “They are both good choices.”
    He eyed me. “Even my brother?”
    “I already said this like a million times. He’s a really good guy. He’s just like you, Sean. He wants to change his ways.”
    “Do—you think he has feelings for you?”
    I rolled my eyes. “You think everyone is in love with me. First it was Cortland, and now it’s your brother.”
    That comment didn’t seem to
