Chapter Five

Roger

After two months of being a total dick to everyone in my life, my sisters both told me I needed to get laid, but I wasn’t interested in finding a one-night situation. My mom told me I needed to take a vacation and get out of my head. As soon as Brooke heard the word vacation, she jumped at the chance to invite me on a tattoo tour. Something I’d never done, but she spent her life doing.

“Come on, please!” she begged as she leaned across the reception desk counter. “We can easily reschedule your appointments here or even get someone else to take over the shop for a pop-up, then you can come with me on this trip. There’s a tattoo fest in San Diego, another in Seattle, and one in Chicago. You can share my booth. We can spend a month tattooing and traveling together. We haven’t gone anywhere together in ages. Sam just booked a job with a tuna fishing vacation company or some weird thing like that. He’s documenting a few of their charters for their website. I have zero interest in going on that job. I’m doing the three fests, and then we are meeting in the Florida Keys for a vacation. Come with me on the tour, and then join us in the Keys.”

I looked up from the stack of bills I had just finished paying. “I’m not playing the third wheel on your trip to the Keys. I’ll do the three fests and hopefully clear my head. Any ideas on someone who might want to take over the shop? If not, I’ll close. You’re the only person I’ve ever convinced to do a pop-up here.”

She slid her phone out of her pocket. “I know the perfect person. He’ll pack the shop the entire time you’re gone, treat it as his, and you’ll come back to it fully stocked with anything he borrowed and cleaner than when you left. Will has done nothing in Louisiana and has mentioned wanting to do one. He’d probably be up for it. Especially if you let him crash in your apartment.”

“Will, as in William Cane? The only person more difficult to schedule an appointment with than you? Do you think he’d want to? He’d have no problem getting a spot at a larger place in New Orleans. Why would he want to come to Pecan Ridge?”

“He grew up in a town just as small. Plus, he likes smaller shops because it’s typically less drama. I’m going to run up to the corner and grab our takeout order. When I get back, we can call him.”

“Don’t forget chopsticks this time. Eating Chinese food with a fork should be illegal.”

Two weeks later, Will was set to take over my shop for three weeks, and I was on my way to travel with Brooke. She was wrong when she said all I needed was a busy work schedule, travel, and friends to move on. Instead of moving on, every time I saw red hair in a crowd, I had to make sure it wasn’t Lily.
