Jordan

Two weeks of Jordan’s vacation had come and gone. She’d spent nearly every waking moment with Conor, and many nights, he stayed over in her hotel room. She hadn’t been to his house yet or met his father, but she knew it would be soon.

Part of her was starting to get antsy. She hadn’t yet broached the subject or the possibility of him returning with her to America when it was time for her to go home.

Most of her morning had been spent talking with Les and getting an update on how things fared in her absence. Now she chewed her thumbnail debating whether to call Elodie. One of the people she knew would give it to her straight.

Before Jordan could talk herself out of calling her, she dialed her sister’s number. Pensive and nervous, her fingers frayed the edge of the hotel magazine that lay in her lap. Listening to the ringing, she secretly hoped the call would go to voicemail.

Her sister answered on the fourth ring. “Hey. What’s up?”

Damn. “Hi. I thought you’d be at work. I was going to leave a message.”

“Well, you got me. Tell me how it’s going?” Elodie bit into something and chewed in Jordan’s ear.

“Uhm…”

Her sister began talking over her, before she could actually respond. “You’re gettin’ that good D aren’t you?”

Jordan guffawed at her sister’s bluntness.

“I know you are. That’s why no one has heard from you. I just hope you’re making him wrap it up. Don’t come back here pregnant with a little Irish baby. And remember you do need to see some of Ireland while you’re there. You’re on vacation. I’m expecting pictures. That means you need to get outside the four walls of the hotel room.”

Jordan’s ears and face grew warm with embarrassment from her sister talking about her sex life. She changed the subject. “Haven’t you looked at my pics on Instagram? I posted pictures of the city.”

“That was over a week ago, Jordan. By the way, Irish dude is hot. Does he have a brother?” More smacking sounds came from Elodie.

“Can you stop chomping in my ear?”

“You called during my breakfast, so no, you’ll have to listen to me eat.” She punctuated her sentence with a loud crunch from whatever she was eating.

“I asked you if Conor had a brother and you haven’t said anything yet.”

“Yes, a younger brother, that while good looking, he’s immature. I’m not sure he has his shit together yet, and I know you’re all about a guy having his shit together.” Jordan knew her sister.

“Doesn’t mean I wouldn’t break him off a piece if he looks anything like his brother.”

They both laughed.

After a few seconds, her sister abruptly stopped laughing. “Now what did you really call me for?”

Jordan hated that her sister knew her so well.

“Elle… we’re having the best time. I haven’t been this happy in a long time…” She curled her legs beneath her and placed the magazine on the coffee table.

“My time is halfway done here, and I haven’t asked him about coming back to New York with me.
