"Who is he?" I say the moment Liz opens the door of her apartment.

"What are you doing here so late?"

Judging by Liz's lack of makeup and her sweat pants it seems a call ahead might have been in order.

"You don't sleep anyways, remember?"

"It's midnight." Liz moves aside so I can step in. "What is it?"

"Who is he?" I repeat.

"Who?" Liz shrugs her shoulders before turning to walk into the kitchen to turn on the espresso machine.

"The man you're in love with."

Liz's face turns ashen. "Who told you?"

"Brighton," I say, reaching to grab a cookie off a plate sitting on the counter.

"What did he say?" her voice is trembling.

"He said you're head over heels for some mystery guy."

She stares at me, her eyes beginning to fill with tears. "No."

"No?"

"I'm sorry, Ivy." She turns and runs down the hallway, slamming the bathroom door behind her.

I knock softly. "Liz, please come out. I didn't mean to ambush you. I was just confused." I hear water running and the sound of Liz blowing her nose.

"I'll be right out."

I sit back in the kitchen nursing my cup of espresso and second almond cookie.

"I'm sorry." Liz appears around the corner, no trace of tears left.

"No. I'm sorry I upset you."

"You didn't, sugar." Liz sits across from me. "I told Brighton that so he'd stop pursuing me. I'm not fond of mixing business with pleasure."

"Ah. That makes perfect sense."

She nods her head.

"Why did you get so upset when I mentioned it?"

She sighs heavily before answering. "I just wish a man really loved me, I guess."

"Me too," I say, my mind jumping instantly to Jax.

"It's been a long day."

"You don't have to tell me to get lost twice." I wink at her before giving her a quick hug and heading to the door.
