Chapter 14

McEvans noticed that Rachel had been distracted lately. When he came home in the wee hours of the morning after finding Shirley, Rachel was sound asleep in his bed. The next morning, she didn't yell at him, but she didn't give him the cold shoulder either. That was weird. She just acted completely understanding and said that they could go out to dinner over the weekend to make up for their postponed anniversary.

It seemed too easy, and he didn't trust it.

What could he really do, though? Ask his girlfriend why she was being sonice?

He had postponed their moving in together while Shirley was temporarily living on the premises, but he still had given Rachel a key. After Shirley ran away, there was no reason not to move forward as planned. But still, he wasn’t feeling so eager about it.

Rachel was gorgeous, but Jake kept having intrusive thoughts – like maybe both of them could do better. He would never say to a woman the words “I love you, but I'm not IN love with you” because Jake felt like that was a cop out. Rachel was great, but he was never really EXCITED to see her, and quite frankly, he wasn't sure that he was Rachel's soulmate either.

She wanted to get married and have kids with him – she had been clear about that. But didn't Rachel deserve more than just stability?

He needed a woman's advice. But he didn't really have any women in his life that he could talk to just as a friend. He started to consider confiding in Brandy – maybe get her perspective on the matter – but he wondered if that was entirely appropriate given the fact he was her boss.

Also, McEvans was a bit intimidated by Brandy. He caught himself watching her on the sly with the gators at Animal Sphere. Sometimes he had to admit that she was better at handling them than he was. He'd even had a couple of dreams about her that were, well, strangely erotic. Usually it would start off where they would be swimming in a murky swamp together, and then they'd end up underwater for a very long, long time...

Anyway, he would have to figure things out for himself.

He had started having headaches, too – he figured he was just internalizing stress. A headache would come on whenever he started thinking that he and Rachel should take a break for a little bit to figure things out.

One Friday night after work, McEvans took the crew who worked the gator pit out for drinks at a nearby bar, where he could blend in easily despite the fact he was a celebrity. The bar owner had known McEvans since he was a kid, as did most of the regulars. To them he was just Jake, Bill McEvans’ son.

Animal Sphere’s latest documentary series finally had been released on DVD, so that night the gator crew was celebrating.

Brandy joined them, of course, and McEvans more than noticed that on that night she cleaned up nice.
