Paulie was working an excruciatingly slow Tuesday lunch shift when Kevin and Beth walked through the front door. Finally. She tossed her towel on the bar and beckoned them over. “Well?”

Beth beamed. “The ultrasound went really well. Everything’s perfect.”“I’m happy to hear that.” She folded her arms and glared at Kevin. “Not that I worried a lot when you left for a test at eight in the morning and here it is one o’clock and I’d heard nothing. It’s not like I was afraid something had gone wrong or anything.”

The bastard flashed his dimples at her, as if he’d forgotten she was totally immune to them. “Sorry. We went out for breakfast after and then went to look at cribs and stuff and then it was almost time for lunch so—”

“Whatever. So did you find out what you’re having?”

Beth shook her head. “We want it to be a surprise.”

“Prepare to be overwhelmed with mint-green stuff, then. Or even worse, yellow. Oh, Kev, you’ve got that brewery rep coming in a half hour to go over his new product line.”

“I hope he’s bringing samples because I could use a beer. Who knew there were so many different kinds of cribs? And don’t even get me started on carseats and strollers. I’m going to need a spreadsheet. Or a pie chart.”

“It’s not that bad,” Beth said. “And I have to get ready for work. I had to switch to get this morning off, so I’m working the supper shift tonight, until closing.”

“I’ll pick you up.”

“I can walk, Kevin. It’s good for me. If the weather turns bad, I’ll take a cab.”

“At nine o’clock? I’ll pick you up.”

They were still arguing as they walked away and Paulie shook her head. Cute couple, even if they were trying to pretend they weren’t one.

While she understood where Beth was coming from, as far as not getting married because of the kid, it was clear to everybody in a hundred-foot radius they had some serious chemistry going on. Instead of fighting it, she should just go with it.

She was making a list of which supplies needed replenishing after the Superbowl bash when her cellphone beeped to let her know she had a new text message. As hard as she tried to stop it, she felt herself smiling when she saw it was from Sam.

Miss me?

Like she was going to give him the satisfaction. Speaking of fighting chemistry… Not really.

I miss you. What are you wearing.

Nothing. I’m naked. Bob says hi, btw.

The phone rang almost immediately, Sam’s name flashing in the caller ID window. “Hello.”

“By Bob, you better mean that stupid Battery-Operated Boyfriend acronym.”

“Hi, Sam.”

“Tell me you’re not in bed with some guy.”

“Okay. I’m not in bed with some guy.”

She could practically feel his anger vibrating through the phone. “Dammit, Paulie, I’m in Germany and I’m supposed to be meeting a few very important investors for drinks in a few minutes. Don’t screw with me.”

“I’m working, dumbass. Who has time for a roll in the sheets at
