“I didn’t order enough,” Hailey said quietly. She grabbed a piece of garbage off the table and held it awkwardly in her hand like she wasn’t sure what to do with it.

“I thought Sean picked up the kegs,” Sarai said.

“He did.” Hailey shrugged. “But I had to order them first.”

“Told her to get four,” Sean said, rolling his eyes.

“I told you they only had two left,” Hailey replied.

“Because you waited until the last goddamn minute to order them.”

“Don’t talk to her like that,” Sarai snapped at Sean.

Sean’s scowl darkened as he looked at Sarai. He tilted his head a fraction, and his fingers tapped out a rhythm on the tabletop. I knew the instant he decided to take a verbal swipe at her, and I stepped forward, ready to stop him.

“Why don’t you sleep it off, Sean,” Clover said, disgust clear in his voice. “You’re being a douche.”

“That’s why you called him Ice Man,” Sarai said to herself. “Top Gun.”

“What did you say to me?” Sean asked Clover, getting to his feet. “Come on over and say that to my face.”

“I’m right in front of you, idiot,” Clover shot back, lifting his hands in the air in a come and get me gesture. “You’re being a douche.” He enunciated the words slowly and clearly.

Sean charged forward, but I stopped him before he reached Clover. In a normal course of events, I’d let Clover beat the shit out of Sean for being a jerk to the ladies, but we were in a very confined space. There was too big of a chance that Sarai or Hailey would get hurt if the guys got into it here.

“Come on, big guy,” I said, wrapping my arms around Sean in a bear hug. “Why don’t you sleep it off.”

“Fucking Clovis,” Sean muttered, the fight going out of him.

I half carried and half dragged Sean into the bedroom. All the beer he’d consumed had finally caught up to him, and he was practically passed out in my arms. Hailey followed us in, and as soon as I’d dropped Sean on the bed, she was there, lifting his feet to pull his shoes and socks off.

I stared at Sean in disgust. I didn’t consider him a friend, but I’d always gotten along okay with him. Hell, I’d even helped the dumbass move. I sure as hell wasn’t doing him any favors after this debacle.

“Leave him,” I told Hailey quietly as she started to take his jeans off. “He won’t even notice them.”

She followed me silently out of the bedroom, shutting the door behind her. As soon as we reached Clover and Sarai, Hailey started apologizing.

“I’m so sorry, you guys,” she said, wrapping her arms around her waist.
