Chapter 23

Before they left on the outing, Nash helped Abby gather the glasses and other things to take inside. He paused at the dining table. “Where did you get this?”

Abby came to his side. “Edna gave it to me this afternoon. She said Daisy declared the orchid was mine. There’s another Charm synchronicity that goes with that plant you’re holding.”

“Maybe, Dr. Drake. Let’s go.” Nash moved to the front door carrying the orchid.

“Hey, Dr. Walker, you come back with my orchid.” A smiling but puzzled Abby sashayed behind him.

“No can do. I need its symbolic company, and so do you. After you, milady.” Nash held the door.

Abby passed by. “Doesn’t anyone act normal in Charm? Even the birds and squirrels—”

“Yes, yes, all part of Charm’s charm.” Nash parked the orchid in Abby’s lap once inside his truck.

Holding the orchid, Abby’s mouth wouldn’t stay quiet on one troubling topic. She waited until Nash drove out of town, knowing his arm and mouth would be busy greeting Charmers. “I’ve got a personal question. Do you and Daisy have anything going?”

“Me and Daisy?” Nash’s head swiveled toward Abby.

“Please don’t misunderstand. I like Daisy. She’s thoughtful and cute as a button.” Abby lifted the orchid as proof. “She and I are going on a picnic Sunday. I sort of picked up that she likes you a bunch.”

Nash looked surprised. “I like Daisy too. I’m glad—”

“I think it best if we don’t kiss anymore— Why are you pulling over?” Abby gripped the orchid.

“Because I need to clue you in on a couple of things.” Nash cut the motor and twisted in the seat to face Abby. “First, to finish my statement, I like Daisy. And I’m glad she’s playing such a significant role in Charm. She’s answered her calling with a spirit I respect. We are good friends and share…well, you’ll see. Last, unlike you, I think it’s best if we kiss, and a lot more, starting now.”

“What?”

Abby felt Nash pull her toward the center console. He kissed her with an urgency she’d never felt from any man. Blast it, her betraying body answered in kind. Her mind had a whole different warning message, like being with Nash in this way would end in hurt. Still, it was him that pulled away first.

“Did I clear up the questions about Daisy and me? If not, say the word, and I’ll try harder.” Nash’s eyes locked on Abby’s.

She saw passion staring her down. “No, that…that won’t be necessary.” Where had her breath gone? Why did she wish he’d ignore her answer and do an encore? Because her body was a traitor when it came to Nash Walker. She felt a low energy hum amp up inside of her.

“You okay over there?” Nash glanced in the rearview mirror before pulling back on the road.

“Just peachy. Never better.” Abby reclipped one barrette. “Dandy.” For some crazy reason, she knew it was true.

“Good. Me too.”

Nash drove the next few minutes in silence until a recovered Abby found her quester’s voice.
