“But also, we may have gotten banned. As in, we can’t go back.” Rafael shrugged sheepishly. “Hey, Blake was going crazy shouting at people and I had to back him up.”

Al of a sudden Abe was itching to get into a bar fight of his own, just so he could kick someone’s ass.

“This is exactly like having kids. Very annoying, very stupid kids.”

“And not very cute, either.” Paris looked Rafael up and down.

“Hey,” Rafael protested with a weak smile.

“This is getting ridiculous. If we miss practice, people will know something’s up. Not to mention you and Blake can’t go back to the bar.”

“That leaves me,” Paris said.

“Absolutely not.” Abe and Rafael spoke at the same time.

“Mmm, I don’t think you guys have much of a choice,” she said.

“You are not going into a bar alone,” Abe said.

“It’s not safe,” Rafael agreed. “They had a fight there just last night.”

Abe narrowed his eyes at Rafael, who raised his hands in surrender.

“Wel,” Paris mused. “My sister doesn’t have morning practice today. If it’s not that far away from the hotel, I can take her with me.”

Abe would never understand women. He could Abe would never understand women. He could probably meditate on it his whole life, reach enlightenment, and still have no fucking clue what went on inside Paris’ head. “How does that possibly help?

She’s another girl.”

Paris rolled her eyes at him. She did that a lot.

“It’s caled the buddy system. Two girls going out to a club is safer.”

“That’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard.”

“No, I’ve heard that before. It’s a thing,” Rafael said. Abe glared at him again until Rafael pressed his lips together.

“I know girls like to go to the bathroom together,” Abe said. “I just didn’t realize it was for safety.”

“No, that’s not the buddy system. That’s just because we want to talk about you behind your back.”

Rafael opened his mouth, but Abe pointed at him and said, “Not a single word.” Rafael laughed behind his hands.

Paris spoke slowly, as if his understanding was the problem and not her ridiculous lack of safety sense.

“The buddy system keeps you safe because you look out for your buddy. Didn’t you go to Boy Scouts?”

“No and no. Al that means is that you’l get attacked with your buddy.”

“Don’t be sily. We go out all the time. It will be the two of us. This is just a regular city. During the day.

We’l be fine. Take it or leave it, but if you don’t make up your mind soon my sister won’t be able to go, and you’l be shit out of luck.”

“Take it,” Rafael said.

“Fine,” Abe agreed more slowly. “But you cal me after. Right after.”

“Maybe.” Paris used that small smile on him, the one that said she’d do what she wanted and he’d take it.

The one she’d used in bed this morning while driving him slowly insane. Shit.
