Chapter Ten

Working at a bar had its ups and downs. The ups… it was great money. The downs… you had to work and put on a smile no matter how bad you felt. Wendy’s heart just wasn’t into working that night. Especially since Cole had mentioned that he had some things to do that night and wouldn’t be in. Not that she was expecting him to come in and sit in his sister’s place every night.

But after the statement he’d made earlier, she was seriously beginning to doubt why she was with him. After all, she knew exactly what she was getting into with him.

Had she really expected him to change that much? He’d been living on the edge for so long before she’d met him, there was little she could do to change that part of who he was. Nor would she really want to. After all, he was really a great surfer.

She’d watched videos of him often enough to know that he was one of the best in the water. He’d won more trophies than any other surfer in the last ten years. He even had a surf move named after him.

She sighed and finished an order for a large family that had come in an hour before sunset. There wasn’t a band playing tonight and the place seemed so dull.

She supposed she understood what Cole meant when he said boring isn’t fun. After all, she lived for the nights when it was standing room only around the bar—loud music pumping, people yelling their orders. She even kind of liked watching a fight break out. Not that she was into violence, just drama.

Sighing, she leaned against the bar and thought about how boring the rest of the night was going to be. There were less than a dozen tables occupied, and glancing out the windows and seeing the perfect sunset, she doubted there would be a huge crowd coming in anytime soon.

She watched Cassey walk down the stairs and frowned when she noticed the worried look on her boss’s face.

“Hey,” she said, handing over a cold can of Coke, Cassey’s favorite drink.

“Hi.” She picked up the can and took a large sip. “Slow night, huh?”

She nodded. “It should pick up this weekend. You know, for the Fourth.”

She nodded. “Yeah, we’re expecting record crowds. Luke’s hotel is completely booked.”

“Wow.” She whistled.

“I’ve got the schedule pinned up.” She nodded towards the back hallway where a bulletin board sat with the schedule. “Sorry, I’ve got you working a double.”

She chuckled. “I did ask for it, remember?”

“Yeah, but that was before…” Cassey dropped off and took another sip of her drink.

“Before I started seeing your brother?”

Cassey nodded and looked away.

“You don’t have to warn me again about him.” She leaned on the counter. “I know what I’m getting into.”

“I know.” Cassey sighed and sat on a stool, then rested her elbows up on the bar and put her chin in her hands. “It’s just that… Well, Cole isn’t like Marcus or Roman.”

She chuckled and nodded.
