Chapter Nineteen

AS SOON as Felipe got his hands on Trask, he was going to get some answers out of that man. Something was going on, but damned if he could figure it out. He thought it was frustrating when he was dating Dakota. It was three times more frustrating with Trask in Richmond. He didn’t roam around like Dakota did, going from one venue to another interview and then off on tasks for Brenden. Trask stayed put for the most part, but Richmond was too far away for Felipe to just pop on over there every time he wanted to scratch an itch. Or nail Trask down so he could figure out what was up with him.

Maybe he was just being paranoid. Maybe he was just disappointed over Thanksgiving. He’d been looking forward to it, and he didn’t like the idea of Trask dining alone. Or maybe he was picking up the weird vibe in the air.

Felipe muttered darkly to himself as he stomped up the stairs with Lady running on up ahead. “I really can pick them, can’t I?” he asked his dog as she waited patiently for him to open the door instead of dodging through the doggie door as she would’ve done when she was younger. “They all make better friends than fucking boyfriends.”

He was supposed to meet Abby online tonight to go over some tentative plans for their joint website. He couldn’t bail on her, no matter how tempted he was. He hated it when people bailed on him. And despite his feelings, this situation with Trask was not an emergency. He’d pin him down when they met over the weekend. He’d already arranged to work late on Sunday, so he could take his time getting his answers.

Felipe threw his coat over the back of his couch and groaned when he saw the pile of schoolbooks on the coffee table. What had possessed him to add this venture with Abby now? After the holidays he’d have his associate’s degree and plenty of time to launch into a brainless new project. But the momentum was there now. He and Abby were on the same wavelength for once, and he didn’t want to mess that up by backing out.

He closed his eyes and deflated, then felt a heavy head on his knee. He rubbed his hand over Lady’s ears. She always knew when he was moody. “You wouldn’t desert me, would you girl?”

She licked his hand, her eyes bright. “Yeah, I love you too.” Felipe patted the couch beside him. “Come on, you can cuddle with me as I suffer over accounting.”

His main door opened and Felipe almost snarled in exasperation. Only one person walked in unannounced. “Mariana, I told you to knock. Fucking knock. My place, you know. Even if I was still living downstairs and you were coming to my bedroom, knock!” One of these days, his baby sister was going to catch him in a very compromising position, and dammit, she’d have no one to blame but herself.
