“Gross!” Kacey cried.
“Come on, Dad! Really?” Karson complained as Lacey just laughed.
“Wow, I’m not sure if I should be proud or disgusted,” Jordie said, his face scrunched up.
“Maybe you should give him some pointers,” Regina sang, trying not to laugh.
“Yup, I’m disgusted,” Jordie said to Kacey. “I think your mom just asked me to tell your dad how to screw her.”
Kacey gagged. “Please, don’t repeat it,” she said, holding her stomach.
“Sorry, I can’t get the vision out of my head,” he said, trying to shake the image away.
It wasn’t working though.
“Hey, I know how to do you just fine!” Karl yelled and Regina waved him off.
“Please make them stop,” Karson cried out, leaning his head against Lacey’s, but she was no help, she couldn’t stop laughing.
“Lord knows I’ve never screamed the way she did,” Regina said, pointing to Kacey.
“I think I just died of embarrassment,” Kacey mumbled to Jordie and he nodded.
“I’m right there with ya,” he agreed just as Karl scoffed.
“Because obviously you don’t know how to enjoy good sex!”
“Oh God, Karson, make them stop,” Lacey said, covering Mena’s ears.
But Karson shook his head, his hands over his ears. “Sorry, can’t hear you.”
“You guys are ridiculous,” Regina said, shaking her head as Karl wrapped his arms around her waist. “Everyone does it. We all know they do.”
Jordie’s head hung as he shook it. Chancing a look at Kacey, he saw that her whole face was red, and soon he couldn’t help it, he started laughing. She looked over at him in horror, but even she couldn’t hold it in. Then they were all laughing. Holding his stomach, he decided he had never laughed that hard in his life. Kacey leaned against him, her perfume clouding his senses as she dissolved into giggles. This could only happen to them. Only the King family would do this. Anyone else would have been embarrassed and tried to hide their uncomfortable feelings, but not the Kings. No, they let their crazy flags fly.
He wasn’t sure how, but soon he recovered, wiping the tears away from his face. “This is great,” he chuckled, laughter still bubbling in his chest.
“That’s one word for it.” Kacey scoffed, shaking her head.
“So,” Karl said, squeezing Regina in his arms. “You two together now?”
Jordie looked over at Kacey just as she looked at him. Smiling, he laced his fingers with hers and nodded. “Yeah, she’s giving me a second chance.”
Regina aww’d while Lacey cried out in delight, almost bouncing on her heels. “I knew it!”
Karson nodded. “Cool.”
“Cool?” Kacey gasped. “You hit him this morning for being with me before.”
Karson pointed at her. “No, I hit him before because he broke your heart and lied to me. He told me earlier that he was gonna get you back. I’m cool with it. You two are good for each other.”
Kacey looked up at Jordie, shocked, and he shrugged. “Told ya.”
She shook her head then as Karl yelled, “Now, boy, I gave you a pass before ’cause you were messed up. But you hurt my baby again, I’ll hang you by your toes on a clothes hanger and skin you alive.”
“How very country of you,” Lacey commented. “I think I’ve heard Elli say that before.”
“You have,” Karson agreed. “That’s where he heard it.”
“What can I say, I am adapting to the South,” Karl said, but then his gaze cut to Jordie. “I’m not kidding either.”
“10-4, won’t happen,” Jordie said, holding up his hands. “Promise.”
“Holding you to that,” Karl warned.
“I think we all are,” Regina commented and soon everyone was nodding as Kacey looked up at him. Wrapping his arm around her, he kissed her forehead and she smiled. He’d lay down and die before he hurt her. He just couldn’t. It would be catastrophic if he did. He would not only lose Kacey, he’d lose them all. They all believed in him, supported him, and he couldn’t let them down.
He couldn’t let himself down.
“There is dinner in the kitchen. Might need to feed the appetite you built up,” Lacey teased.
“Might want to drink some hot tea after all that screaming, sweetheart,” Regina added, and Kacey’s face burned once more, while Jordie sputtered with laughter. She shot him a dirty look and he shrugged.
“Well, we are hungry,” he said and she shook her head. “And you do scream really loud.”
“We are never gonna live this down,” she groaned as the rest of the family laughed.
“Probably not, but I’m okay with it,” he said, pulling her to the kitchen.
“Why? It’s embarrassing!”
He looked back at her, his lips curved. “But it was fun.”
Her lips pursed as she shrugged. “Very true.”
“Hey, keep it down tonight though. Mena needs her sleep,” Karson called at them and Kacey let her head fall back.
“I need a place of my own,” she groaned as she plopped down on a stool. Jordie glanced over at her as he grabbed the two plates that had been left out and put them in the microwave. Turning, he leaned against the counter, eyeing her. “What?” she asked and he shrugged, not sure how she was gonna take his next suggestion. Figuring that it was now or never, he smiled.
“Come on, Dad! Really?” Karson complained as Lacey just laughed.
