The group was all gathered at a high-top table and had already had a few drinks, judging by the noise level. I made my way straight to Lara and gave her a hug.
âWhereâs Alonso?â she asked in my ear.
âIn the car. Making a call.â I kissed her on the cheek before stepping away.
âYou okay?â she asked me, wrinkling her nose.
Are you kidding? âIâm great. You need a refill?â She said no as Camille called me over to the French Foreign Legionâs end of the table.
âWe got your Segura for you,â she said, and I tripped over a jacket on the floor. My Segura. I liked the sound of that.
I gave them each kisses and took a chair on the end next to Camille. I was getting natural finally with this whole cheek-kissing greeting business.
âI worried you werenât coming,â Josette said, leaning close to talk over the noise. âAre you okay? I heard about the scene in the atrium. Can you believe it?â
My pocket buzzed and I pulled out my phone.
Iâm coming in. Play along.
I had no idea what that meant.
I tried not to look around and instead attempted to follow the conversation. I was listening to Ivan ask Sasha about where he should visit in the South of France, and since the three women had attended university in Montpellier, they were telling him the good things to see there. I caught sight of Alonso entering the bar. I knew I was supposed to act casual, like I didnât know him know him, but I had butterflies in my belly watching him make his way through the tables over to where we were sitting. Heâd said to play it cool, but sitting here keeping a great big secret from everyone was, well, making me hella nervous.
âAlonso. Bona nit,â Lara said, and he walked directly toward her, not glancing in my direction. He kissed her cheek, and she waved for the table to pay attention. He was good at this whole undercover gig. Way better than me.
âEveryone, Iâm not sure if youâve all had a chance to meet Alonso. He was so kind as to step in for Pedro when he hurt his back and heâs doing a wonderful job of taking care of our students.â She repeated herself in Spanish and everyone waved and said hello.
âMucho gusto,â he said with a shy wave, and then he looked around the table for a place to sit.
âDown hereâ¦aquÃ,â Josette said, waving her hands and pointing to an empty chair sheâd pulled between us. She leaned in close to Sasha and Camille and spoke in French.
âNo fair,â I whispered. âI canât understand any of you.â
Camille spoke next to my ear. âWe have a bet going on to see who he prefers.â
My eyes bugged out. âWhat do you mean?â
Sasha leaned in close. âHeâs so handsome, but no one knows anything about him. Weâll sit him next to you and see who he pays more attention to.â
I rolled my eyes.
