His Eagle Eyes on Me

Avery saved a lot of people in the past and helping Eric did not mean much to her. Eric, however, saw Avery as his savior.

In the yard, Layla had said goodbye to Eric, and he was about to leave when Avery came over and invited him inside. "Eric, since you are already here, why don't you come inside?"

Eric hesitated.

"My mom is inviting you in. Why are you still standing here?" Layla teased before opening the car door for him.

Eric stepped out of his car and followed them into the mansion. Once they entered the living room, Layla pulled Ivy to the dining room and started digging into the barbeque ribs Ivy brought home.

Ivy glanced into the living room. "Layla, aren't you worried that it would be awkward for them to be alone?" Ivy felt awkward when she tried to put herself in Eric's shoes.

"Eric is extremely scared of our parents, so he's probably dying from nerves right about now!" Layla giggled.

"Oh, you are doing this on purpose!"

"He is too timid. It's a good chance for him to start acting brave," Layla said before taking her phone out. "Here's the design for your house. Uncle Chad sent it to me. He didn't really want to show me because he wanted to surprise us, but I told him that I needed to buy furniture for it, so he finally caved."
