CHAPTER 27

Ryan

“I wouldn’t have been brave enough to try this place on my own.” I inhale another taco and pray it doesn’t wreck my intestines tomorrow. “How’d you find this thing?”

Andi laughs, a sound that makes me smile back at her involuntarily.

“My dad’s always been a big foodie—you know, before it was cool. I know Peretti’s doesn’t seem all that fancy—it’s not, really—but my dad cares a lot about food. He worked for years to get a recipe for pizza sauce that he was happy with.”

“My brother recommended your dad’s place,” I say. “That’s how I found it in the first place. According to Lawrence, it’s the gem of the pizza world in LA.”

“We get a lot of local business,” she says happily. “Repeat customers. We’re not a big name chain, but we try to make sure our customers are happy with what we serve. My dad might be blunt and seem a little emotionless—he loves playing the tough guy Italian card—but really, he’s sweet. He cares more than anyone I know.”

Listening to her talk about her family is equal parts fascinating and heart-wrenching. The way she speaks about them makes it easy to see the love, the connection. Though she doesn’t talk about it much, I can sense how much she misses her mother, and I hate that she’s lost someone so important to her.

My own family is close-knit back home, even though my brother is a dick sometimes. My parents are great, truly, and I can’t imagine losing my mom like Andi has. When my brother isn’t being a drunken asshole, he can be decent, too—unlike tonight. I’m still pissed at him for putting Andi and me on the spot like that.

Luckily, she doesn’t seem all that fazed by it. After we loaded Lawrence and posse into Tommy’s huge rental and sent them home, I asked Andi to grab a bite to eat with me. Since she knew the area well, she suggested a local place that sold tacos.

I love tacos, I just hadn’t expected to love them from a sketchy-ass cart on the side of the road. Seriously—there’s a small guy behind the cart flipping meat and other various substances that resemble food, and if I had to guess, one could catch salmonella from simply breathing in the scent of sizzling meat.

But Andi insisted they were great, that she comes here all the time after her shows, and that she hasn’t gotten sick once. One bite in, and I was sold.

“If I get sick tomorrow,” I say to Andi, swallowing a mouthful of taco. “It will have been worth it…almost.”

She laughs again and steals one of my tacos. I lean in to snag a bite, but she moves the taco at the last minute and puts her mouth there instead. I let my other hand find her waist, my fingers sneaking a squeeze of her glorious hips as her lips play over mine.

The girl is heaven. She tastes like it, looks like it, smells like it… I
