Betsy
I cursed the day that the Canyon Beach Lingerie shop opened.
Not just because I spent money I didnât have there. And not just because Iâd bought a pair of red crotchless panties that were unlike anything Iâd ever seen before; lacy, see-through, with a huge hole you-know-where, they had to be the sexiest piece of underwear that Iâd ever owned. And not even because I thought it would be a good idea to leave said sexy panties on Police Officer Jefferson Evianâs desk when I went to the police station this morning to deliver cupcakes.
No, those werenât all the reasons why I cursed the day that Iâd ever stepped foot inside the lingerie shop. The biggest reason was that not only had I left the âanonymous packageâ on the wrong desk in the police station, but Deputy Sheriff, Max Fernandes had seen me leaving it and opened it before Iâd been able to slip out of the station with my empty cupcake containers.
âHey, Betsy!â he yelled across the busy room, drawing the attention of not one, not two, not three, but seven different police officers. âYou left something here by mistake.â He then let out a loud whistle and held the panties up for everybody to see. âBetsy Montgomery, what have you left for me?â He walked toward me with a swagger Iâd only seen in cowboy movies and then stopped with a twinkling light in his hazel eyes.
âIt was a joke,â I mumbled as I looked down, my face aflame. âAnd it wasnât even for you,â I said under my breath.
âWhat did you say?â He leaned forward. âI couldnât hear that last part.â
âNothing.â I shook my head quickly. âIt was a joke. Julia Gilbert put me up to it.â I felt only slightly guilty about mentioning my best friend. Sheâd made me do so many incredibly immature things when we were teenagers that adding this to the pile didnât seem so bad. It didnât even faze me that we were long past the age of teenage dares.
âOh, Jules â¦â I could see him thinking over the information, and then he nodded. âShe always was immature.â He sighed. âWell, you should take these back. You really shouldnât be leaving these sorts of things hanging around. You might give someone the wrong idea.â
âSomeone like who?â I said, but I didnât wait for an answer. I grabbed the panties and ran out of the station before Jeff showed up. That would make this embarrassing situation even worse. I already knew that he would find out because this was Canyon Beach and everyone knew everyoneâs business. I would bet twenty dollars that Max was already texting his friends about my little dare, and I knew that my brother Nolan and his best friend, Jeff, would soon be in the know. Iâd have to call Jules right away so that she could cover for me when I explained to them that the only reason I had
