Chapter 85

"You’re like a married couple with a child." Jake observes and I steer the conversation away by telling them that we should be ready around ten because it takes fifteen minutes to get to the club and the VIP entry opens at half past ten.

"Where are you going?" Eddie asks.

"To a club." I answer.

"Can I come?"

"Ha, let’s see how you don’t say no to this one." Niall laughs, and everyone’s watching me.

"Well the big scary guys at the entrance will not let you in."

"Why not?"

"Because you’re too young." I tell him and spot the waitress walking over with our desserts. "Look! Chocolate cake!" I say and Eddie gets distracted, clapping excitedly as a plate of Chocolate Mousse is placed down in front of us.

I feed him half of my dessert before I eat the rest, and by the time we finish eating altogether, Eddie is leaning back against me and rubbing his belly with his eyes closed.
