Hundred Five
Ryley
Our moment at the table was interrupted when Luca sat down at the table. I still hadn’t eaten as I was busy helping a mother in need. I knew firsthand how hard it was when you didn’t get a moment to yourself. I was surprised no one else was willing to help her. She came here to eat so she wouldn’t have to cook and clean up afterward. Which I would have used all the time if I had that option while Channing was still a baby.
I gave Clare my number and told her to call me any time she needed
help or just a babysitter. I may have also kissed her son’s head with my saliva on my lips. He seemed to instantly calm down and I hope that healed his colic. I made a mental note to give her a call in a few days to see how he was doing.
“Luca,” Blake grumbled.
“Oh, don’t mind me, I’m just waiting on the cheesecake,” he shrugged.
“Why don’t I bring up my plate and then I can get you both a piece?” I said. Before I knew it, Luca was carrying my full plate of food and Blake was carrying me up the stairs.
“I could have walked,” I protested.
“This is faster,” Blake shrugged.
When we entered the apartment, Blair was in the kitchen making coffee. Blake finally put me down and I went to take over for Blair. I felt terrible for him.

“Mom’s still mad I see,” Blake told him.
‘Yeah, I’ll try again in a little bit,” he struggled,
“I’ll give you a piece of cheesecake to give to her. It should get you in the door,” I told him and he chuckled.
“Was dinner that bad?” Luca questioned. The three of them sat down at the kitchen island as I pulled the cheesecake out of the fridge. They chatted while I waited for the coffee to finish. I also ate my dinner. I may not have been in the conversation but I felt comfortable enough to listen.
Blake beat me to the coffee pot when it beeped to say it was finished.
“Cut the cheesecake, I can get this,” he told me pecking my lips. I didn‘ t say anything but when I turned around the other two were smirking.

I pulled down some plates and got them each a generous piece. I’ll need to make two next time or the boys won’t be getting any. I also cut a piece for Blake’s mother. I’m hoping it will get Blair out of the dog house. I slid a plate to all of them before I went back to my dinner.
Luca let out a groan as he took a bit.
“If you don’t mark her, I will, just for her cheesecake.” He moaned before he grunted when Blake hit him in the chest. Blair and I let out a laugh.
“It should get you out of the dog house,” I told Blair
“If she doesn’t beg you for your forgiveness after tasting this, she doesn’t have taste buds,” Luca commented as he stuffed his face.
“Would you like a piece for Becky? It might get you laid,” Blake told his friend.

“I don’t need cheesecake to get that woman in bed, I’m irresistible,” he
announced.
“I’ll be right in,” he linked before pecking my lips. I smiled, giving him a nod.
