The next day at lunch, Bella eyed Shay with a smirk on her face, like she was watching the most hilarious thing sheâd ever seen.
The tomb raider put down her huge pastrami sandwich with a frown. âWhat? Something I need to know?â
Her gaze flicked to the windows. Nothing but normal passersby. Despite all the times Shay had gone out to eat with her friends, none of them had recognized that she refused to sit with her back to the window. She wasnât sure what she would tell them if they finally noticed and asked.
Bella shrugged. âItâs just a very big sandwich.â
âLangerâs is famous for their pastrami, and after running all those stairs, I think we could eat every scrap of food in this place and be okay. I know Iâm hungry as a starving horse in the desert.â
Janelle and Kara both laughed.
Bella smiled and downed a forkful of her kasha. âYou do have a point, and itâs not like you have an ounce of fat on you. Sometimes I think after youâre done working out with us, you go to the college and just spend the rest of the day working out. Shay Carson, super-athlete.â
The universityâs gym is nothing compared to what I have in Warehouse One, but yeah, youâre closer to the truth than you realize.
Shay smirked. âI do dabble in a little bit of extra exercise now and again. Nothing wrong with that.â
Janelle took a bite of her modestly-sized turkey sandwich. âAre you addicted to exercise, Shay?â
âIâm not addicted. I just like to keep fit. I need it for work.â
Shay managed not to wince. All these months, and she still screwed things up by saying too much at times.
âDonât you mostly dig up stuff very slowly with very tiny shovels and brushes?â Janelle looked at Kara, who gave her a quick nod. âDonât have to be that fit, Iâd think. Sounds like something you could do as an old woman.â She waved a hand. âIf this is you worrying about your man, you donât need a man whoâll start looking for someone new the second you gain a few pounds. Trust me. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt. Kicked his ass to the curb, girlfriend.â
Shay considered that for a moment. Whatever Jamesâ faults, he didnât strike her as the kind of man whoâd lose interest in her so casually. In everything, he was slow to start, but intense, unyielding, and difficult to stop once he did. Maybe they were more alike than she thought in that sense.
Fuck opposites attract.
Shay shrugged. She needed to paper over this with a good lie. âMy fitness is just something I need. Iâve been inâ¦strange situations on the job. You never know when you might need to hike out of a desert and your phone isnât working.â
âThatâs happened to you?â
The tomb raider nodded.
Janelle chuckled. âArchaeology is more dangerous than I would have thought.â
âYouâd be surprised.â
A young woman stepped into the deli. She looked Shayâs way, and her face lit up with recognition. It took Shay a few seconds to recognize her as a student from her lecture the other day, Mary.
