Chapter 135: Date Night, Part 1

"Chloe! Come downstairs," Trent called.

Why was he calling me to come downstairs? We'd spent all day down there hanging out with Jax and the twins. Trent was supposed to be coming up to bed.

With a sigh, I kicked the blankets off and headed to the living room. Dozens of candles were spread across every surface, the flames flickering and casting hypnotic shadows across the walls.

I slowly entered the room, my gaze wandering in every possible direction. A tray of cheese, pepperoni, crackers, and fresh fruits sat atop the coffee table.

"What's this?" I asked, mesmerized.

"Date night," he said proudly.

"Date night?"

He nodded. "I got rid of everyone for the evening so we could have some privacy." Trent held his hand out to me, and I took it. He guided me toward the couch. "Sorry I can't take you out on a real date, but it's not safe."

"It's okay." I smiled. "This is perfect."
