Addie and I stepped over the dimly lit threshold; the words Death & Co were engraved on the bottom in calligraphy letters. I loved this place and was glad Jace picked it. Normally, I would have tried to get out of being with Addie’s friends, but once she mentioned this bar, well, I had no choice but to come.

“Don’t think I don't know you, Daimon. Be on your best behavior,” Addie said, and then grimaced, knowing me all too well. “Just try to be nice.”

“Lover, I'm always nice.” I smirked as I wrapped my arm around her waist, pulled her in and kissed her neck. The place was buzzing with people enjoying their drinks. The mute light, soft music, the bar wall lined up with hundreds of bottles of good drink, what was there not to like about this place? “Come on, Addie, I’ll be nice.” I winked and took her hand, taking her further inside. Addie spotted both her friends who were sitting at a small table off to the side.

“Addie.” Elissa waved.

“Hey, babe.” Addie went willingly into her arms and they hugged.

“Hi,” Jace said awkwardly to me and he held out his hand to shake mine.

“Hey,” I responded, taking his hand and shook it.

The girls continued their jabber while Jace and I sat quietly, both of us not knowing what exactly say to each other. Addie and I ordered our whiskeys, while the other couple nursed their drink.

“Fuck, Addie I had the worst day last week. I'm going to have to move out of my place.” Elissa pouted.

“But, babe, I made you laugh didn’t I?” Jace added and poked her in the side.

“Don’t you dare say a fucking word.” Elissa laughed as she pointed at him.

“Ah, come on, you loved the leopard undies I wore,” Jace said and winked as he teased her. I picked up my drink watching their exchange. They were so different from Addie and me. More playful and light hearted. Our relationship was hard and serious.

“Jace, it was utterly ridiculous,” Elissa muttered her face turning red.

“Did it make you laugh? Did you forget for a split second about losing your place?” Jace asked, taking her hand into his.

“Yes.” Elissa smiled.

“What are you guys talking about? No wait, should I even ask?” Addie held up her hand.

“He wore a leopard thong thing. It wasn’t even a thong…I think…it was…” Elissa held out her hands and tried to explain in. “It was like a tiny triangle with a leopard print and a huge metal hook that hooked itself in his crack!”

I had to close my mouth not to spit out my drink. I swallowed without choking myself as I began to laugh. Addie’s head fell back, her stunning laughter filling up our area.

“I wore it to make you laugh and feel better. You were having a shitty day.” Jace slinked away, putting his head down.

“You’re right, babe, and I was happy you did. I laughed hard. Damn did I laugh,” Elissa reassured him.

I laughed, as the image involuntarily popped into my mind. Addie smiled at me as she watched me. She then started to laugh, taking my hand and squeezing it.

“So it hooked on your ass?” I asked through my laughter.

“It wasn’t so much a hook. It was a flexible metal,” Jace continued and so did our roaring laughter. “You could manipulate it.”

“Did—did—it—hurt?” I tried catching my breath.

“Whatever, it was for Elissa.” Jace pouted.

“Yeah, it was.” Elissa snorted and took his face into her hand, squeezing his cheeks. “And for your question, yes, I will.” Elissa winked.

Jace’s face turned white. “Really?”

“Yes. I said yes,” Elissa announced loudly.

“You said yes to what?” Addie stopped laughing and leaned in closer.

“Relax. We’re not like you two crazy fuckers who get married right away. I said yes to moving in with him.” Elissa leaned in and kissed Jace on the lips, reawaking a stunned Jace.

“I thought you didn’t want to?” he said underneath his breath, as a slow grin appeared.

“That’s why I wanted us to go out. I wanted to tell you today,” Elissa shrugged.

“Congratulations to you both,” I said loudly as I hailed the waitress for more drinks, to celebrate.

“Thanks,” Elissa said, still looking at Jace.

“Wow, I swear I knew you two were good for each other,” Addie commented.

“Yeah, well, blame your wedding. I slept over. Literally, I slept over him,” Elissa joked.

“Yeah, I finally pegged her down.” Jace poked Elissa.

“Do you want me to move in with you?” she threatened.

“You said it now. You can’t take it back, right, Daimon?” Jace asked me.

“He’s right.” I raised my glass.

“Thanks, I guess you guys are going to be sticking together.” Elissa wrinkled her nose.

“Don’t bother with Daimon. It’s not a road you want to go down on,” Addie noted.

“Yeah, only you can handle him,” Elissa said knowingly.

The four of us were having a good time as the night progressed. I had to admit, it I liked her friends.
