They sat down at the bar a few minutes after the doors opened and Cole ordered them each a shot of bourbon.

As soon as the barman placed the shots in front of them Cole turned to Stefan. “I bought you a drink so it’ll be rude to hit me before hearing me out.”

Stefan grunted, picked up the shot and downed it before slamming the shot glass down on the counter. The bourbon burned down his throat, making his anger taste bitter. “I’ll hear you out but that doesn’t mean I’m not still going to punch you.”

“Fair enough,” Cole said taking his own shot. After putting down the shot glass he turned to face Stefan. “The Morris’s are about the only political family without any skeletons in their closet, not because they’ve paid to have them buried but because they genuinely are honest to God good people.”

Stefan raised his eyebrows feeling bored with the whole spiel but crossed his arms and listened as Cole continued.

“About three years ago I did an investment for JB, which was when I first met him. He was the first politician that came to me not wanting to either funnel or hide money. He just wanted a good investment. Once the deal was done he invited me to dinner with his family. Sasha had just finished high school and her mother tried setting us up.”

“Shit!” Stefan said before gesturing the barman for another drink.

“Nothing happened, Sasha and I went out on a couple of dates but both of us weren’t really looking or interested. We got along quite well and became sort of friendly acquaintances.”

“Great, so why are you telling me this. What does this have to do with me and Sasha?”

Cole waited for the barman to place the next round of shots in front of them; as soon as Stefan slammed his empty glass down Cole took a deep breath to continue.

“I’m telling you this so you know where this is coming from. JB got elected because everyone else had skeletons, big and small and he was clean as a whistle. So how you fit into all of this is simple. Stefan, your father has been in business for years, and although he is very successful we both know he has a few skeletons.”

Stefan felt the bourbon start to heat his abdomen as his anger started to fuzz on the edges.

“Remember that deal your dad made a couple of years back? The one where it came out the IRS was on the guy’s tail? Even though your dad did nothing wrong, he was involved with someone who was suspected by the IRS. Besides your father’s skeletons, you all but advertise that you’re a party animal looking for a good time. If they associate you with Sasha, your father and her father will be brought into this. And besides the campaign taking a hit, Sasha will never forgive you. She’s made of steel and a hard worker but once you cross her there’s no going back.”

Stefan pieced the puzzle together in his head.
