Chapter 128 - Steal Your Fries

"Stephen is here," he announced. Katherine giggled when she heard him curse. She linked her fingers with Cage's and pulled him towards the door. He was a tad bit reluctant to move but she was excited to see his friend-c.u.m manager who had helped them resolve their problems.

"You shouldn't be so excited," Cage told her. She laughed as she opened the door.

"I am more excited about the food. Handsome men are easy to come by." He pinched her side, making her glare.

On the other side of the door, Stephen stood with too many packets in his hand.

"I have been glared at a lot by people but I usually do something wrong before it happens." Katherine ushered him in as she replied.

"Cage here was being handsy, so I was warding him off." Cage pouted.

"I thought you were asking me to..." Stephen shook his head.

"I didn't know he had this side to him. Sorry for unleashing him on you." Katherine nodded sagely.

"It seems like it will take the two of us to control him now." Stephen laughed heard and put down the food.

"You're a fireball," he commented. "Nice choice," he told his friend. Having freed his hands, he moved forward to hug Katherine.

"Nice to meet you. He's been secretive about you for so long that I thought we would never meet." She hugged him back.

"Is he one of those people who tie up others and keep them in his bas.e.m.e.nt?" she joked.

"Ah, yes. I have seen that streak in him. You should be careful. Never come over to his place. You never know what he might do to you." Cage waggled his brow, pleased by the innuendo.

"Thank you for bringing him here. This wouldn't be possible without you."

"You guys realize I am here, right?" he announced, making himself known. He was scowling.

"He is an ass most of the time. Let me know when he gets too much for you. I'll hit him on your behalf." Cage shot them glares and opened a packet.

"Wait. Did you bring the extra meat stuffed sandwich? You know this shop makes a killer out of it." The last part was mostly for the benefit of Katherine who was looking at Cage with awe.

Stephen had let her go and they were sitting around the table, ensuring that there were enough plates.

"No, I didn't bring it because the carbs in it were too high. I won't allow you to get sloppy, you have a movie coming up soon." Cage snorted as he pulled out the sandwich intended for him, the same extra meat one and took a bite out of it.

Katherine moved to him and nudged. That sandwich really looked good. "Can I have a bite?" He raised his eyebrow. "I promise I will not steal your fries! Just one bite."

"Weren't you calling me names right now? I won't share." She rolled her eyes. Of course, he would share.

"This accounts for if you will get any action later in the day." The hand quickly came in front of her, urging her to take a bite. She laughed through her nose as she leaned in took a small bite. She gave him a triumphant look.

"You can have the rest of it, too." Anything for perks.

"Katherine, you're good! I like you." Stephen moved his hand to hold it up into a high five. She did not hesitate to slap it. "Welcome to the crazy family." Stephen then moved to search for his own sandwich.

Family? What does that mean? Seemed like Stephen could read her mind just fine. Was her face an open book?

"You're his girlfriend, so you are part of the Cavanaugh family. I am an honorary member because I keep him in line and out of trouble." Made sense.

"That bite you took out of my favorite sandwich?" he started. She nodded as she took a bite of her sandwich. "That will be one kiss from you, Miss." She would love that.

"Okay," she said when she managed to swallow a bite. How could she resist when he demanded she be aroused by his words. During their conversation, Stephen had ventured into the living room and was looking at their pictures.

"Where are the other two?" he was excited. It was clear that he wanted to see Angelina but was making it out like he cared about Lily as well.

"Must be sleeping," she called out. It was surprising that they weren't being nosy and roaming around the apartment to get more information.

"It's almost ten. What normal person would sleep at this time?" Cage snickered at Stephen's comment. They had moved to the living room. Cage had taken his seat on the couch while she sat on the arm next to him. He pulled her into his lap exactly like she had hoped.?She snuggled into him.

"They have varied work hours. Not everyone gets up at five in the morning to contemplate life like you."

"Five?" Katherine was horrified. An ungodly hour. She would sometimes stay awake until then but she couldn't imagine waking up at that hour.

Stephen shrugged. "I go to the gym and plan out my day before I start it. Unlike others."

"And you still eat more junk than me."

Angelina entered the living space then. She was in a shirt that had indecent graffiti on it and usually wore to the club when she was feeling frisky. She would pair it with a leather jacket, tight jeans, and some boots. It wasn't her normal attire but Katherine was suspicious that Angelina was doing her best to not look like a hot mess.

The catch was, she always looked like a hot mess when she dressed up. That was just her style. Cage gave Katherine a look to stop her from laughing. When Stephen turned to see her, he stuttered.

"You're eloquent, aren't you?" she commented with the roll of her eyes. She shook her head and moved to the kitchen to search through for something to eat. "Thanks for the food, though." She paused. "I heard you guys converse from my room. So loud, the lot of you."
