THIRTEEN

“WHAT ARE THEY doing?” Cora’s eyes were glued to the monitor in the corner of Spirit’s living room.

“I don’t know.” Spirit watched over her shoulder as Jerrik led the group of men into the woods and out of sight. “Something must have happened.”

“Like what?” Cora squinted at the screen for a second longer before turning to face Spirit and Kari.

Kari shrugged. “Dunno.” Her eyes were wider than normal as she looked Spirit’s way. “You need some labeling done for pickup tomorrow?”

Spirit let out the breath she’d been holding since her friend watched Jerrik kiss her. “Actually, yes.”

For a second there she though Kari was going to ask why in the world Spirit was kissing her brother.

Wait. Why didn’t Kari ask?

“I’m sorry I kissed Jerrik.” The words tumbled out of her mouth. Kari was the only person she’d ever been able to count on.

Until Jerrik.

“You didn’t kiss Jerrik.” Kari wandered into the kitchen and opened the fridge, grabbing a container of yogurt from the top shelf. She turned to wiggle her eyebrows at Spirit as she crossed to the drawer where Spirit kept her flatware. “He kissed you.”

Spirit stared at her best friend.

Kari wasn’t upset looking.

Or surprised looking.

Interesting.

Maybe Magni spilled the beans when he called her this morning.

That didn’t seem like something Magni would do though.

“Hopefully now he’ll be less of a pain in the ass all the time.” Kari put an upside-down spoonful of yogurt into her mouth, her eyes narrowing thoughtfully as she pulled it out. “Shit. It might actually get worse.”

“What?” Spirit considered grabbing the spoon as Kari shoved in another bite instead of answering the question.

“Lance believes Jerrik’s been...” Kari sized Spirit up, dragging out the pause. “He’s had a hard on for you.”

Spirit straightened. “Really?”

It was a stupid question. At this point she knew darn well she made Jerrik’s penis hard.

But it was still nice to hear.

Kari rolled her eyes. “I don’t want to talk about my brother’s carnal desires anymore. It’s making me nauseous.” She turned to the basement stairs. “Come on. Let’s get this done before they come back.”

“You think they’ll all come here?” Cora’s voice was casual as she walked past Spirit to follow Kari down the stairs.

Kari shrugged. “Maybe.” She stopped midway down the steps and turned. “Why?” She tipped her head to one side. “You hot for Craig?”

“No.” Cora pushed past Kari. “Of course not. He’s not my type.”

“How do you know?” Spirit skipped down the steps to catch up to her friends. “Have you seen his penis?”

Both women turned to stare at her.

Cora was the first to speak. “Did you just make a penis joke Spirit?”

Spirit looked from Kari to Cora. Neither of them were laughing. “Obviously not a good one.”

“It was actually pretty good.” Kari tapped Cora’s shoulder with her spoon. “Cause of the last one having such a tiny dick.”

Cora shot Kari a glare. “Yeah. I got it.” She looked back at Spirit, her usually serious face splitting into a smile. She held one hand up, palm facing Spirit.
