Chapter 15

At six, John left the office for the day, anxious to call Izzy just to hear her voice. An odd but pleasant feeling had drifted within him all afternoon, a quietness. He couldn't explain it or even describe it, but he wanted—no, needed—to hear that the feeling was mutual.

On reaching his apartment, he punched in her number, but didn't get an answer. No big deal. She would be outside at the barn. He thought about driving to her house, but cautioned himself against becoming a pest. He called twice more, at nine and nine thirty, but still didn't get an answer.

At midnight he was still awake, lying in his dark bedroom, wondering where the hell she was at nine thirty at night, especially with a little kid who needed to get a good night's sleep to be ready for school tomorrow.

The morning he had spent in her bed haunted him. Sex had never, ever been better, but that wasn't even the best part of making love with her. He sensed a bond he hadn't felt with another woman, including the mother of his children. With his ex-wife, a longing to be with her again the minute they parted hadn't been present. Was it possible the connection to Izzy he had felt as an immature teenager had been something cosmic, like his instincts telling him she was the woman meant for him?

Nah. Couldn't be. He didn't believe in a bunch of mystical nonsense. He and Izzy didn't even really know each other. What he felt had to be lust, nothing more. He had gone without for a long time. Didn't he have a right to be horny?

Friday started slow, but Dana reminded him that Rocky Mountain Electric was slated to play at the Rusty Spur Saloon both Friday and Saturday nights. And a leg of a darts tournament was scheduled at the Tall Timbers Tavern.

John groaned and swore. Rocky Mountain Electric was a wild and popular country-rock band and dart players had an enormous loyalty to the tournaments that occurred in bars and taverns around the area. Anywhere from a hundred to five hundred strangers could show up to drink, dance and throw darts in Callister. No way would he find the opportunity to sneak out to Izzy's after work.

John called her and explained his schedule, then talked her into meeting him at his apartment for lunch. She was reluctant, fearing someone would see her pickup at his place, but he bribed her with hamburgers he intended to buy at Betty's Road Kill. As soon as she walked into his apartment, they began undressing each other. Everything after that, from the black lacy bra and bikini panties she had on under her sweater and jeans to her clawing orgasm while she straddled him and he was buried all the way up to her heart, was X-rated.

After they gorged on each other, they sat up in bed and ate the carryout hamburgers. "I tried to call you last night," he told her between bites, feigning casualness.
