Chapter Ten

Jack woke up a few minutes before his alarm clock and lay in bed, staring at the ceiling, wondering what that day would hold. It had been a little while since he’d looked forward to a new day, and he liked how it felt. He especially liked how it felt to think about Liz and wonder what she was up to. Was she already at the diner, or was she on her way? Was she feeling better, or was her mysterious letter still upsetting her? More than anything, he wanted to find a way to help her, but if he didn’t understand the problem, he could hardly come up with a solution.

He reached to the side of his bed and grabbed his tablet, then brought up the Internet. That was one thing he had to say about this ranch—it might be pretty rural, but it had great Internet access. He’d google Liz and see if he could gather some insight on her . . . but then he realized that he had no idea what her last name was.

That would make things harder.

He drummed his fingers on the side of the tablet for a second, then punched in Liz waitress River’s End Ranch Idaho. He wasn’t expecting to get any hits, but a website for the ranch popped up, and he started scrolling through the pages. Wait—yes, there was a page for the diner, and there off to the left was a picture of the diner staff, with Liz front and center looking friendly and holding a plate of fries. The picture was captioned, but it only listed the staff by their first names. He supposed that was to protect their privacy, but he didn’t want their privacy protected—he wanted to know more about this girl.

If this was an investigation, he could place a call and have someone hack into the ranch’s computer and bring up payroll and he’d get her name that way, but he’d need a really good reason for doing that, and having a crush on a girl would never pass as a really good reason.

He paused in his thoughts. Was that what this was? A crush?

That was a cute way to put it, but no. Crushes were like summer flings, sodas at the mall, a high school dance and then they were over. This was something entirely different, something he wanted to explore. Something that maybe Liz wouldn’t object to because it would have meaning. The investment would pay off.

Once he decided what he wanted to do with the rest of his life.

There it was again—that question he kept tossing around in his head, the one that didn’t seem to have a clear-cut answer.

Maybe a visit to the fairies was in order.

Jaclyn looked up from her flowerbed as Jack approached. He’d walked this time, wanting to stretch his legs, and was glad to see that she was out and about—he’d known he was taking a risk heading out so early.

“The least you could have done was waited until I was out of the shower,” she said as he walked up.
