He looked down. “I forgot I was wearing this.”

His tee said: I hate to be sexy, but I’m chubby and can’t help it.

“Are you guys about to make out? Because you look like you are,” Kai said, having approached at some point.

“You brat,” Declan said, reminding me that he was there too.

“I can’t believe Marcus missed out on Asshole Spencer defending your honor.” Kai’s hand smacked against his mouth. “I mean…Cuddle Buddy Spencer? In our defense, we thought of the name when you were a jerk to Corbin.”

Spencer shook his head, but the corners of his mouth curled up in a small smile. “No offense taken,” he told Kai, then to me, “Can we talk?”

Oh God. He was going to tell me he didn’t want to be CBs anymore, which would be my fault as I’d ignored him for days because of my dumb crush on him. This was all because the Beach Bums had fallen in love. Now I was crushing on people. “No,” I said.

Logically, I knew there was a chance Spencer wasn’t going to tell me he didn’t want to be CBs anymore. He had just defended me, after all. But fear and emotions in general were almost always stronger than logic.

Declan groaned. “Jesus, Corb.”

“He means yes,” Kai added.

“No, I don’t.”

“Then I guess I’ll just have to keep stalking you,” Spencer replied. “And who will I cuddle if it’s not you?”

“What? No. That’s our thing. You can’t do it with anyone else,” I said because the thought of it made my stomach ache.

“Please don’t ask to use my office,” Declan complained. “Every time Marcus and Kai use it, they fuck in there. I swear everyone else has sex in my office more than I do.”

“Sounds like you and Bastian need to get on that,” I said, ignoring the fact that Spencer and I didn’t have sex because he didn’t want to have sex with me. Not really.

Spencer eyed me, not speaking. It was intense, like he was searching for something, trying to dig deeper inside me than anyone ever did. What was he looking for? And would he like what he found?

“Come on, Corb. Let’s go home.” He held his arm out for me, and I couldn’t help stepping into his embrace. The second I did, I melted into him, into the comfort of Spencer’s warm, soft body and the feel of his strong hold around me.

“So fucking cute. I’m taking a photo for my baby,” Kai said.

I couldn’t pull my face out of Spencer’s chest to respond. This was…fuck, I’d missed this. I needed this. How could we find a way to make this work?

“I’m going to have security walk you guys out to be safe,” Declan said. “Who knows if that guy has beef with you now or not.”

Spencer nodded.

Neither of us had our car with us, so Spencer ordered a ride from his phone, and then we went out, the car pulling up right away. The second we were in the back seat, I cuddled into Spencer’s side again. “You must have missed me a lot,” I said.

“I did. It’s frustrating as shit. I’ve been driving myself crazy.”

“Me too,” I admitted.

He danced his fingers up and down my arm the way he did when we were in bed. This whole thing was…a lot. I didn’t know how it happened so quickly or what it was, just that it was stressing me the fuck out. I feared losing it, or that he wouldn’t want me in whatever way it was I wanted him.

“This is all your fault,” Spencer added.

“What exactly is this?” I mean, he’d left me an opening, and I needed to figure out what the fuck was going on so I didn’t have to keep avoiding him.

“We’ll talk at home.” Which was likely a good idea.

We were quiet the short drive back to our building, then quiet in the lobby and the elevator up. Like always, we automatically went to Spencer’s apartment, my nerves multiplying with each step of the way.

We took our shoes off, for me just for something to do, but then I couldn’t hold back anymore and blurted out, “I might want to date you!”

Spencer grinned, his forehead wrinkling in a playful way. “Might?”

“Yes. I’m not confirming or denying anything. This is weird as fuck. I’ve never wanted to really date anyone before. This is all because of Marcus, Parker, and Declan! Well, them and the Poddies too.” I was pacing Spencer’s living room, him not joining the conversation, which made me even more nervous. “First, they fell in love, and then, when I told them we’re CBs and all the things we did, they said we were dating, which made me realize I wanted to date you—might, I mean. Might want to date you, and now it’s all I can think about!”
