“This must be serious.” Zara slouches forward, coffee cup still in her hand even though we’re all on our horses.

“I don’t call 911 meetings for nothing,” Elsie says, turning her horse around.

“I think I know what it’s about.” Kat gives up and lets Loki graze even though he has his bit in his mouth and we’re supposed to be walking along the bridle path, warming up the horses before we have a group lesson.

“Fine,” I start, looking around at my little grown up Saddle Club. Taking my feet out of the stirrups, I let Thor grab a few mouthfuls of grass, too. “I’m working with the FBI to try and get some info out of Enzo Moretti that could help link him to the Bow Tie Murders.”

“The fuck?” Zara exclaims. “Since when?”

“Just like the last couple days,” I go on. “And I really shouldn’t tell you any more, but Elsie and I kind of had an incident last night.” We get our lazy horses to go forward, plodding along the path as we talk. “It’s fine. I’m just going to have dinner with him one more time and then I’ll become exactly the type of girl he doesn’t want to date and I’ll get him to break up with me in a sense and then I’ll watch the news and wait for him to get arrested.”

“You really think it’s gonna be that simple?” Zara questions.

“No, because she left out the part where the FBI agent is a total hottie,” Elsie quips. “Think Dean Winchester pretending to be an FBI but he really is in this instance.”

“Okay, but what does the Bow Tie Murderer look like?”

“Not attractive,” I tell Zara and shake my head. “It’s work, guys, that’s all. I go out on fake dates all the time.”

“Yeah, but not with a known criminal,” Kat presses. “I think I speak for us all when I say you need to tread carefully here. I know you know, but I have to say it.”

“Mason seems to really know what he’s doing,” I say, thinking it will help quell their fears, but all it does is make all three of my friends squeal and I roll my eyes.

“Ohhh, first name basis,” Zara teases.

“Does he?” Kat wiggles her eyebrows. “Does he know what he’s doing?”

“You guys are so mature,” I deadpan, fully knowing I’m the ringleader with things like this.

“It’s a shame you didn’t see him,” Elsie goes on. “He showed up in gray sweatpants and I could see the entire outline of his dick.”

“You could not,” I laugh. “I know because I looked.” We laugh and then direct our attention to our horses. Loki and George are happy to just walk around but Thor is a little more energetic, and Elsie’s young horse, Mystery, is in a mood today. It’s a good distraction like always and our little mock show group lesson was so much fun.

“You two are doing well,” Brenda, our trainer, tells me when the lesson ends. “Are you considering going to a show this summer?”

“I am,” I tell her honestly.
