Chapter 100: Broken Dreams Stories 102

Chapter was the “It’s perfect,” I whispered as we pulled up the long driveway. The house sat way back from the road, and the only hint that it was even there electric gate blocking the driveway from the main road. Patrick parked in front of the four–car garage, and piled out.

“I love how quiet it is out here,” I said as I turned in a circle, taking in the large lawn surrounding forest. The listing it has forty acres, so it should give us plenty of privacy.”

“Yeah it looks like our closest neighbor is across the road, but all I saw was a driveway I couldn’t see the house,” Mike added.

“With this big garage, there should be plenty of room for all our vehicles,” Josh , approaching me and taking my hand.

Patrick taken out his phone and was texting someone; when the reply came through, he looked up. “The realtor is less then five minutes , She said we could walk around and check out the outside and back yard while we wait.”

1 squealed in excitement and tugged at Josh’s hand, leading the way around the side of the house. The others chuckled and followed us.

“Wow, there’s much room. Look at all the space we have. We could put in “I like the of adding a pool and some other amenities. Besides, it would take us all weekend to mow this much lawn.” Drew said.

* I think we should look into fencing as well. I want to cut off our view, but it would keep nosy animals away and give us a little added security.” Mike said.

“It’s a good idea. We could add a caretaker residence, and I know Jamie would be more than happy to continue to be our security.”

added.

As we continued to discuss different ideas for the backyard, the sound of car coming up the driveway us head to the front of the house. When the realtor, a friend of Patrick’s mother, spotted us, she over, hugged Patrick, and gushed about how good he looked and how long it had been since she had seen him Seeing another woman touching one of my guys caused wave of jealousy to rush through me. I squeezed Josh’s hand harder than 1 meant to, and he grunted. Easy there, baby girl, my hand has done nothing to you,” Josh admonished, wiggling his fingers.

“Sorry,” I grumbled, still focused on Patrick and the woman who was now looking at like he was steak and she was starving. Patrick had been trying to get away from the realtor politely, but when he turned and saw the expression on my face, he came to me, ignoring the annoying woman. Josh let go of my hand right as Patrick got close enough to pull me into his arms and give me a deep kiss. We turned and walked toward the woman as “Susan, why don’t you unlock the property? We will take a look. You can wait for us out here, and if we have any questions, we let you know.” Patrick in a no–nonsense voice. I smiled as Susan gaped at us like a fish before turning and hurrying to the door and unlocking it for us. When we entered, and it looked like she would try and follow us, Patrick turned, thanked her unlocking the door, and promptly closed it in her face.

I snorted, trying to choke back a laugh, and Patrick shuddered. “I have never liked woman, she’s been all over me since I turned twenty–one and started taking over some of my dad’s business obligations. I should have told my mom to find someone , but she was so to be helping us that I couldn’t stand say no. But I , love, this is the only house she will be involved with, and if this is the place we choose, someone else will be handling the transaction.” He swore to me, then, before I could answer, he had swept me up in his arms. I wrapped my legs around his waist so I wouldn’t fall as he kissed me deeply, causing a moan to escape and the guys to groan, Setting me back on my feet, Patrick clapped his hands. “Ok, let’s look at this place; lead the way, love.” I was grinning as I looked the entryway. A staircase was directly in front of us. “Wow, I didn’t realize this house was three stories; I bet the gym and other stuff is there.” I said, pointing the stairs that led to the floor below. The large open concept living room, dining room, and kitchen were off to our right. The living room had a large fireplace, and we could easily fit a table big enough for all of us in the dining area. The kitchen was enormous, with white cabinets and stainless steel appliances. There was even a space where we could add a smaller to eat in the kitchen.

“Would it be too much if I said I love this place again?” I asked, looking at the others.

“No, sweet girl, I think this could work well for us,” Drew told me as he tugged at my hand, leading me further into the kitchen.

I spotted a set of glass French doors leading out onto a wooden deck, and I went outside to investigate. There was a place for a grill and more than enough room for table and chairs. At the far end of the deck, a staircase leading down to the backyard was blocked by a small gate. Walking back inside, we continued to explore the main flour, finding a large office, sunroom, and a door leading to the garage.
