Chapter Thirteen

On the drive home, I wondered if I had seriously lost my mind by consenting to be wired for my date. I mean, how bizarre had my life become? Was there another girl on the planet so inept at talking to boys that they had to resort to having a horndog help them out via technical devices? Ugh.

The plan was for me to go home and get ready for my date, and after I made myself irresistible to Jackson, I’d insert the listening device into my bra. Then I would put the earpiece in just before Jackson arrived. Wyatt was going to stay at Raye’s office and listen in and feed me things to say and do.

Andrew was still working in the yard when I got in. A look of pure relief flooded his face when I eased the Porsche back into the garage. I grinned at him as I put the keys back. “Told ya I’d make it back okay.”

“Tell that to my heart. It just started beating again,” he joked.

“See ya later,” I called, as I headed in the back door.

Aunt Vivian sat at the table, sipping a mint julep. “Hello there. Did you have a lovely time today?”

“Yeah, I did.” I peered around the kitchen, trying to gage if I sensed the presence of evil. “Is Aunt Lenore still gone?”

“Oh yes. Whenever she goes out to the Yacht club, she’s gone for days on end.” Aunt Vivian gave me a curious look. “Why do you ask?”

“Because Jackson and I are going out tonight.”

Aunt Vivian rocketed out of her chair. “Hot damn!”

“No, no, it’s just a friend thing. Bryn knows about it and doesn’t care - to her I’m an insignificant troll who could never steal her man away.”

“Uh-huh,” she replied, with a knowing wink.

“Please.”

“What time does Mr. Dreamy get here?”

“Six.”

“Well, you better shake a tail feather,” she replied, pushing me to the back staircase.

After I showered and dried my hair, I took Wyatt’s hair advice to heart and plugged in the curling iron. While it heated up, I flung open the closet door and surveyed my wardrobe choices. It was kinda difficult deciding what was ultra sexy since I just didn’t do that. There was one sundress that Mom and Gerard had tried to convince me was “to die for”. I took it out of the closet and tossed it on the bed.

I took extra time on my make-up—even lining my lips to make them appear fuller and puffier. When I gazed at my wavy hair and blowfish lips, I shook my head. “I’m a total and complete sell-out.”

Heading out of the bathroom, I took off my robe and put on my dress. Then warily I eyed the listening devices on the dresser. With a groan, I slid the wire into my strapless bra, and then put the earpiece in. “Testing. 1, 2, 3,” I said.

“You’re coming in loud and clear, Julesy.”

“Thrilling.”

“Whatcha wearin’?”

“Are you that perverted?”

“This is not about wanting to know what color your thong is.
