Chapter Fourteen

With her shoes and socks in her hand, Addie rushed down the stairs. She just about plowed over Miss Hazel. The tiny black woman placed her hand over her heart. “Where’s the fire, girl?”

“The kitchen?” Addie quipped, teetering on the bottom stair.

“Doubt it,” Hazel said with a hearty laugh. She put her fists to her hips and looked Addie up and down and raised one eyebrow. “I thought you were going for a ride with that Nichols boy. You can’t go out dressed like that.”

Addie frowned, looking down at her clothes. What was wrong with the way she was dressed? She had on red, knee-length basketball shorts from her days at high school and a white fitted T-shirt that said, “100% REDHEAD and I’ve got the ATTITUDE to prove it.”

Aunt Janie came out from the kitchen, wiping her hands on her apron. “Oh, don’t you look cute.”

Hazel snorted. “If you say so.”

“I declare, Hazel. What’s wrong with the way she’s dressed?”

Not really liking where this conversation was going, Addie tiptoed to the entryway and sat on one of the chairs to put on her shoes and socks. It’s not like Hazel knew her that well.

While she tied the laces of her Nikes, she peered through the screen door to see if Chase was here yet. He’d called about an hour ago and said he was getting off work early to take her on a bike ride to a park where she could get some fantastic pictures. He was also bringing a picnic along so to come hungry.

Something had changed in their pretend relationship last night that felt more real than anything she’d ever experienced before. The night could’ve ended perfectly with a kiss both of them wanted if Chase’s little sister Ashlee hadn’t called him, needing a ride home from a party she should’ve never been to in the first place.

The minute his sister called, and Chase found out who she was with, his big brother mode kicked into high gear. Addie found it very endearing how concerned he was, enough that when they pulled up to Aunt Janie’s house, he allowed Addie to open her own door and hop down without his assistance so he could go rescue Ashlee.

The twins, she found out last night from Chase, were very opposite in many ways. Taylin was a straight A student, volunteered at both the youth center and the hospital once a week and had her sights set on becoming a doctor. Ashlee, on the other hand, was graduating from high school but with a much lower GPA. She spent most of her free time shopping, and had no idea what she wanted to do other than marry Beau Jacobsen.

Addie had been worried about the girl, and told Chase to text her with an update. An hour later he sent her a message, telling her that Ashlee was home safe. He
