CHAPTER SIXTEEN

DAMON

After my Thursday classes, I swing by the new place to check on progress. Each time I walk into the loft-style apartment with its huge open spaces and high ceilings, I get excited. I’ve spent too long living in a basement, like a troll, and I can’t wait to have the room to breathe again. I also can’t wait to move my old couch in here so I can flop onto it and stretch out. Maybe Alexa will stretch out with me and we can do what I wanted to do when I saw her lounging on it at the storage unit.

Mentally kicking myself for going there when it could be weeks or months before that might happen, I smile at Al, the contractor who’s over-seeing the renovations, as he emerges from the bathroom.

“You should still be all set to move in this weekend,” he says, straightening his cap. “The tiling is just finished and the grout is going in. The wiring in the bedroom will be finished tomorrow, in time for the sign off. Kitchen’s signed off already. The security system is all go. You’ve got a swipe pass and half a dozen others are in the top drawer in the kitchen. The joiner swears the garage shelving would be finished Friday too, and that’s all that’s left to think about.” Looking around, he nods. “Unless you can think of anything else?”

“Nope. I’ve been keeping a log, and those are the only things I had left on my list too. Thanks Al,” I say with a grin. “I’d shake your hand, but I have a germ phobia.”

“Uh huh,” he says with a chuckle as he rolls his eyes, because I make up a new excuse every time we meet.

“Okay, then. Keep up the great work and I’ll leave you a case of beer along with the last installment on Friday,” I call over my shoulder as I head out.

“Sure thing, Boss,” he calls back.

Driving over to pick up Jenkins, I take him with me to Jake’s gym so he can get his workout too.

“Okay,” he says, after I’ve put his wheelchair in back and climbed in behind the wheel. “What’s changed since I saw you on Sunday? You get laid?”

“A gentleman never kisses and tells.”

“Well you sir, are no gentleman. Who is she?”

“One of Bruno’s roommates. I met her in the street the week before, but when he made me go visiting after art class, I found out she lived there the whole time. Shoulda gone over sooner.”

“Which one is it?” Brad asks, turning the radio down a bit more. I’d forgotten he’d met some of the Beyond crew when he’d been helping Bruno do some painting in the club. “Your type used to be chicks that don’t cringe at you and there were no similarities beyond that, so I can’t even guess which one it might be. Is it the redhead? She’s got great legs and tits that just scream ‘motorboat me!’” Following up with the mouth-flapping noise as he shakes his head in a blur, Brad holds up a finger to acknowledge his next thought.
