*Excerpt*
She closes her eyes as he carefully puts
everything away, then he shifts, lifting her and settling her in his lap. He
does this, sometimes. A lot, actually.
They have very few boundaries. Between
their friendship and the hours they spend working together, Lola spends more
time with Tiny than almost anyone, and sometimes—when he’s carelessly
affectionate, drawing her into him on the couch when she’s half-asleep, when he
carries her to the breakroom for sleep and makes her favorite on his nights to
cook at the station, the way he always seems to be looking after her—it makes
it very hard to remember that they’re friends, that Tiny doesn’t see her as
anything more than the tomboy Dempsey befriended that never did go away.
She’s ok with that, with being the tomboy
sidekick. She knows Dempsey and Tiny and even Cal adore her, knows she has a
place in their little group—and she’s ok with that place being the one of the
guys' friends.
Sometimes, though, moments like this when
his hand strokes broad and warm protectively over her back and his chin nudges
into her hair, and she feels small and sheltered—moments like this, she
hates it. It’s hard to remember her boundaries, and what she isn’t, when he
holds her like she’s precious.
“You ok, Lo?” he murmurs.
She nods against his chest. “We should go
back,” she mumbles.
“Take your time. They’re not gonna miss
us.”
“We’re half the groomsmen, Tiny. They’re gonna miss us.”
He laughs this soft huff that makes her
belly squirm. Everyone says that Tiny is quiet—that he doesn’t talk, that he’s
closed off.
And she knows a lot of it is just that she’s
been friends with him for so long that she’s slipped past that silence and
reticence, but she sees him, with Dempsey and Cal, with their other friends,
where he’s content to be quiet and observe.
He’s talkative with her—laughs with her,
his placid calm mask cracking to reveal the wide smile that’s sarcastic, warm,
genuine, and soft.
She wants to believe that means something.
She knows she needs to get up and get some
distance because the wedding and the hand still sweeping over her back is
fucking with her head.
“You ready?” she asks, shifting away. His
arms tighten for a moment, steadying her before he releases her entirely and
Lola scrambles out of his lap.
Tiny is watching her, eyes dark and
patient as he nods, standing. “Yeah, I’m ready. Let’s go.”
