* * *

It was almost three in the morning by the time Josie fumbled out her keys and let herself into her small apartment on Pine Street. She didn’t even have a dog or cat there to greet her and raise her spirits. First, she couldn’t afford the monthly addition to her rent the property management company tacked on for owning pets. And second, because she worked so many odd hours, it would’ve been cruel to leave a pet who loved her locked up all day and alone in the apartment. But that remained one of her goals: get enough money together to get a new place that was pet friendly, get herself a dog, a cat, heck, even a hamster, and cut back on her hours enough so she could take care of the little guy.

Too bad it didn’t look like that would be happening anytime soon.

She started to sob as she made her way to the fridge. She was an ugly crier too. Her nose turned as red as Rudolph’s; her eyes grew bleary and bloodshot. So first thing on her list tonight was to avoid all mirrors. Second thing on the list was cooking up some comfort food. She wouldn’t feel an ounce of guilt either. After all that had happened, she damn well deserved something good in her life. And she had lasagna she’d premade for Saturday dinner that would be perfect.

It was tough to prepare the lasagna because her eye faucets were leaking like crazy and her nose was running. She ended up shredding fresh parmesan while making the most unattractive snuffling noises and leaving trails of big fat tears on her cutting board. But you know what? Who cared? She didn’t have to impress anyone anymore. Josie Smith with the big ass and the thick thighs didn’t need to put on airs or hide who she was. She just spilled out into her life, same as always.

Why had they kept such a big secret from her? Those two perfect men… She didn’t care about their money. Since she didn’t have any herself, how the heck could she miss that kind of crazy lifestyle in the first place? But one thing she needed was honesty. She needed to be able to trust. And yes, she wasn’t stupid or deluded. She could understand why they might not have wanted to bring it up. Even why they might want to test out the women they pursued, to weed out the crazy, gold-digging ones who were only after their money. And Dan, when he’d talked about his scars…she had almost lost it completely. How could such a sweet man be so stupid? And Lucas, she could see how much he wanted to set things right, to take charge and fix things. But things wouldn’t need fixing if he’d only trusted her a little to begin with.

If they’d so casually lied about who they were, hidden their true lives, then how could she trust they wouldn’t lie again? That was what men did: took what they wanted, no matter what they had to say or do to get it.
