CHAPTER SIXTEEN

Halloween in the vet practice had been a three-ring circus full of patients and their humans in costumes. When Jason arrived that morning, Lurlene sprayed his bushy blond hair into a full lion’s mane and used a makeup pencil to give him the appearance of whiskers. She wore a pink gown resembling Glinda the Good Witch and handed out treats to all the patients. Dr. Burgess fit the Oz theme by wearing something that could be a vaguely steampunk wizard.

At the end of the day, Jason waited near the door with Rebel, a sweet Rottweiler who belonged to Justin, a gym rat with impressive shoulders and a tight ass who’d skipped a few leg days. Jason had hooked up with him over the weekend after the debacle with Miranda because he’d been in the headspace for an aggressive fuck. Several of them. The reversal of power seemed to appeal to Justin, who wanted a repeat performance. The feeling was not mutual.

“Hey,” Justin said huskily as he came up to Jason and fondled his fingers while he took Rebel’s leash. “You want to...”

“Have a good night,” Jason said loudly, stepping back from them.

Justin gave him a resigned expression. “You know how to find me again if you want me.”

He and Rebel walked out into the night, and Lurlene came around from behind the desk to lock the front door and windows. Jason tried to figure out what he’d do again until the next morning. He didn’t get too far in his plans before Lurlene turned her pink and motherly attention on him.

“What’s going on with you, dear?”

He avoided direct eye contact. “Nothing. Just a long day.”

“As a mother of boys, I know when something is nothing and when something is wrong.”

Jason rubbed his tired, gritty eyes but didn’t give her the information she was fishing for.

“It’s Halloween. Are you going to do anything with your friends?” Lurlene asked as she walked back behind her desk.

“I don’t have any friends.”

That wasn’t entirely true. The people in the Sign Language group were nice enough. Maybe he could have done something with them. He’d gone to the meeting the previous night. And no surprise. Miranda wasn’t there, though Michael had asked after her. Maybe she decided to give up on Sign Language when she gave up on him.

“Oh, sugar,” Lurlene said with a skeptical laugh. “What about Miranda?”

“No, I don’t have her, either,” Jason said with an annoyed sigh.

“That can’t be right. Did y’all have a fight?” Her expression went from softly teasing to concerned. “People get over fights. My husband and I had to work through several misunderstandings before we got together. It happens when two people care about each other.”

“She doesn’t want to see me anymore,” he spat before turning away from her knowing eyes. “She was my only friend, but now that’s over.”

Jason rubbed the bridge of his nose to hide his face and the emotions he was desperately trying to hold in check. This was worse than the Sign Language group.
