As I helped Emily prepare the stew for dinner, I heard the rumble of a motorcycle.

“Sounds like Mason’s home. I don’t think I’d be able to sleep in that house,” Emily said. “Not after what happened.”

“Yeah, me either.” I sighed, continuing to stir the contents of the pot.

She went to the fridge and pulled out some carrots and green beans. “Hey, would you mind chopping these up and throwing them in the stew? I’ve got to talk to Tyler about something,” she asked.

“Of course,” I replied. “I’ve totally got this stew-stirring thing down to a science.”

“Good. I’ll be right back.”

She turned up the radio and left.

I chopped the carrots and green beans, then threw them into the pot. The song that came on the radio was one of my favorites, so I turned it up and sang. I looked behind me to make sure the room was empty so I could dance my butt off. Using the ladle as a microphone, I went to town. When I turned back around, Emily, Tyler, and Mason were standing behind me.

I gasped, horrified. “How long have you been there?”

“Long enough to know you can’t hold a tune, but can shake what your momma gave ya,” Mason replied with a sly grin.

“Oh my God.” I could feel my cheeks turn three shades of red.

“Don’t stop on our account,” he added.

“Yeah, get it, girl,” Emily cheered, dancing toward me. “Dance party in the kitchen.”

I turned around, completely embarrassed, and began stirring the pot again.

“Hey, Mason, want a beer?” Tyler asked.

“Sure,” he replied.

Tyler grabbed a few beers from the fridge and led him out into the living room.

I turned to Emily. “What did you do?” I hissed through my teeth.

“Nothing,” she replied coyly.

“Yeah, sure. That’s what you always say. Why is he here?”

“Hey, you said yourself you wouldn’t want to be alone in that house. So, I invited him over for dinner.” I could see in her eyes that she was holding something back from me. There was a look that only a best friend would know.

“What else did you do?”

“Who me?” she asked, pointing to her chest and batting her eyes.

“Yeah, you,” I tried to say in an angry voice, which didn’t come across the way I’d planned. It was probably the smile fighting for space on my face that ruined the effect. “Spill.”

Her brow rose. “I planned a surprise trip tomorrow. The company called me this morning when a space opened up, so I invited Liam, and he agreed. I thought it would be fun because it seemed like you two really hit it off. But then, Liam texted me before you got home and said he couldn’t make it, so…” She paused and turned back to the living room. “I invited Mason. And it turns out, he’s free tomorrow.”

“Surprise,” I said sarcastically with jazz hands. “Everyone is free, Em. It’s spring break.”

“Yeah, well lucky for us, huh? The tickets are expensive, and it’s too late for a cancellation, so I needed a replacement.”

“And where is this expensive ticket taking us?” I hummed, stirring the pot.
