We have a meal to prepare for the gang. Kitchen,” I point to the kitchen and laugh as Ava sticks her tongue out at me and drags her feet. “I’ll see you in a bit.” I tenderly kiss Ezra on the lips, sipping him down. We sit down to a delicious meal that Ava, Cortez, and I prepared, while Ezra made a dozen phone calls, showing off his prowess as the Boss, and the happy couple dragged over a few bags from their apartment. The conversation was light as we tried not to scare Kayla and Ava with the monster hidden under the bed. Not only was I nervous from Ray Hunter’s reappearance, along with the knowledge that he has a helper with close access to us, Ezra informed me he wanted to have the talk just before my final examine with Dexter. Today started off fantastic. I wish I was still lying on my stomach between the Ezes, blissed out from the haze of the in-between state of awake and dreamland. Is today a stressful day? Holy fuck it is… I just hope it doesn’t get any worse.
