I smirk as I watch the glare-off between Cal and Theo. 

Peas in a pod. 

"You okay?" Elijah asks as Atlas arrives at the table, sitting down and taking a long drink of the whiskey that's been waiting for him. 

"Hazel couldn't tie her shoes but refused to let me help her," he answers with a pained expression. 

I fight the urge to laugh, knowing Carlie would be the exact same. 

"I'm going to go meet her," Carlie stands up and I brush my hand down her arm affectionately before she leaves the table. 

"Don't get her pregnant, is all I'm gonna say," Theo scowls, his eyes still glaring at Cal, who won't relent. 

"I like her pregnant," Dawson shrugs. Andros elbows him but they are both wearing matching smirks. 

"I like her pregnant, but the pregnancy hormones are a bitch," Atlas sighs and I chuckle, nursing my drink in my hand. 

"Noted," I nod, amusement heavy in my voice. 

"Will you quit glaring at him," Elijah elbows Cal but he remains focussed on Theo. 

"Him first," he mutters. 

I roll my eyes at my idiot brother, and after what feels like a lifetime of a secret conversation, they finally break their glaring contest. 

"Thank god for that," Andros mutters, causing Theo to glare at him instead. He holds his hands up surrender and Theo turns his attention to his drink. 

"How's the new club?" I ask Atlas, trying to divert the attention to something more productive. 

"It's coming along. We're probably going to hold off opening until we can massively redecorate it though," he answers with a smirk. 

"BDSM club?" Elijah asks bluntly. 

"He knows us well," Dawson chuckles. 

"When will it be ready?" I ask with self-interest. 

Taking Carlie to a BDSM club...

Interesting. 

"Few months, I guess," Atlas shrugs. 

We let the conversation rest as Hazel and Carlie emerge, giggling together like old friends. 

I frown in confusion, but it quickly turns to a smirk when I see the other guys also in the same state of confusion. 

"What?" Hazel shrugs to Theo, "We're best friends now."

"Preach," Carlie calls from in between Callum and Elijah. 

The rest of us exchange looks, clearly confused by their newfound friendship. 

Introducing them might have been a bad idea.
