His Naughty Lessons

Chapter 208: Relieved, or … WTF?



** Harper **

Waiting for Sunday evening was the hard part ... Especially once the three of them got back into the car after a late lunch, setting off on the return trip to the city.

Harper scooted into her usual seat, finding it extremely difficult not to make sheep’s eyes at Eli through the backview mirror. If there were any new and relieving discoveries they had made on this weekend outing, it was the fact that Tyler remained blissfully ignorant of any potential "inappropriateness" between them, and the realization made her want to snatch every opportunity to steal more looks or touches from her secret boyfriend whenever she could. But remembering Eli’s warning to not mislead her brother with any dubious hints before they could have a real "men’s chat", she heeded the suggestion and kept her eyes to herself, deciding on a less suspicious topic to think about instead.

"So, this interview of yours," she said to Tyler as the car pulled off the dirt trails and slowly emerged onto paved roads. "Did you like the company? When will you hear back from them about the results?"

"In a week or so." Her brother stretched out his legs and looked back one last time at the campground they had all loved since they were kids. "I like both the position and the office environment. We’ll have to see about the paycheck they decide on if they do end up making an offer, of course ... But for now, looks like it’s entirely possible that I’ll follow you two’s footsteps in taking a new job in Davenshire. Then we’ll be able to come camping together as often as we want."

More three-person camping trips ... Well, Harper wasn’t sure if she and Eli felt exactly enthusiastic about repeating this weekend again and again in the future. But provided that Tyler could take the relationship news well and accept his third wheel position calmly enough, perhaps their future vacations would involve fewer hidden meetings under the moon and more PDA, without relying on web novel tropes.

That would certainly make things a lot more worth looking forward to.

"You’re welcome to come visit anytime, you know." She flashed her brother a warm smile upon that thought. "Whenever you want a break from work, we are just a short flight away. And you can stay with me in my new apartment next time too if you want, my current place is a lot bigger than the previous one. Or maybe—"

Or maybe by the time you come back again, I’ll already be all moved in to Eli’s place, so you can have my empty apartment completely to yourself ... Though Harper remembered herself just in time to swallow that comment back.
