Thursday

Jen answered on the third ring, the sound of children laughing in the background, as always. "Howdy! I've actually got a few minutes to talk. We're at a pizza party. Let me get another mom to watch these monsters for a minute. Hey, I'm going outside," she yelled to someone. The noise disappeared. "Okay, baby-cakes, tell me what's going on down there in the land of sunshine."

"I slept with Nathan."

Not quite how I planned to lead the conversation, but is slipped out.

"Holy shit! It's okay, I can say that, no kids around. So you looked and touched. How was it? Totally amazeballs?"

"Mostly, yeah."

"But? I hear a but, and not the good kind, like a firm, manly one, naked on top of you. That you dig your heels into while you…"

"Stop." I couldn't help grinning. "But, it's a one-time thing. Just a hook-up, while we're here on this job."

"Did he say that? The slime."

"No, he didn't. He wants to go to dinner tonight."

"Well, heck, sounds like he's kind of into you. Right? Dinner? At a restaurant and all?"

"I assume."

"So maybe it's not just a hook-up. Could be, he recognizes a true gem when he sees one. I wasn't going to say I told you so, but, yeah, I am. Told you so. He's a decent dude, right? He has a car without rust, all his own teeth, good income?"

"Yeah, you could say that. He probably has a fleet of cars in many styles and colors. He's a billionaire, owns a large company, remember?"

"Slipped my mind for a minute. He's being nice to you?"

"He loaned me money for a statue at a pawn shop."

"Huh?"

"It's a long story and I know you'll need to chase after your kiddos before I can finish it. But you remember I told you, this detective was following up on leads from Michelle's attack? Well, he found a clue. I'll send you an email when I have a few minutes with more details."

"That's great! You think it might help you find that dude?"

"I hope. So, I have to focus on that right now. I can't start anything with Nathan. I'll be too busy working with this lead on Michelle."

A pause. I grit my teeth. I could hear the sermon gearing up. Why did I call Jennifer first this morning? Because she'd be the easiest call to make. And because I was bursting to tell someone about Nathan. I sure didn't plan on spilling my guts and discussing my sex life with Mom or Michelle.

"You can't or you won't start anything? Sweetie, you've got to stop blaming yourself. What happened to your sister is not your fault. You need to live your own life. You're doing enough for Michelle. Good Lord! You've got this the opportunity to have fun, maybe start something, with a guy you've liked for a year."

"I like him as a boss. Long-distance. I never said I wanted to get intimate with him."

"Yet you just had super-hot sex with the dude."

"How do you know it was super-hot?"

"I can hear it in your voice.
