Chapter 15

SCARLETT

“You dreamt of her last night, didn’t you?” Stirling’s face peeks into my bedroom doorway, wearing a devilish grin. “Uhh, Quinn. Ohh, baby… Come for me, Quinn… Come for m—”

I launch a pillow at her head, which gives a delightful thud as it smacks her head and the door.

“My Gods,” I groan and roll over, flinging an arm over my face. “What time is it?”

“Late, eleven. Was it a good dream?”

I peer out from under my arm, squinting in the mid-morning light. She bounds into the room and slams herself down on my bed, bouncing my body up from the mattress.

“If you’re going to attack me that viciously, you could at least bring me coffee.”

“We’re out.”

“Well, seeing as you’re disgustingly perky this morning, didn’t you think to… Oh, I don’t know… maybe go and fucking get some?”

“One, I am not perky. Two, you’re only miserable because it’s been that long since you got laid that your own dreams are having to masturbate for you.”

“Well, if you stopped cock blocking me, I could get laid.”

Stirling curls into me so I can spoon her.

“You smell like sweat and feet. You need a shower,” she says, but hitches into my stomach anyway, and I slide my arm over her waist. “You realise why I keep interrupting?”

“I assume this morning’s torture is going to involve a lecture. Please enlighten me if it will lead me to coffee faster,” I groan into her shoulder.

“Because you’re not ready. I really want you to be happy,” she rolls over to face me, “to let yourself be happy. Let yourself do what your heart already knows it wants.”

I purse my lips together. It’s far too early for this. She picks at my pyjama sleeve, threading her finger through a hole. “You don’t have to look after me anymore. We’re not kids. I know you felt responsible for me for a long time after they died, but… we’re okay. Yes, it’s been tough, but whose life isn’t? You’re allowed to do stuff for you. To choose happiness.”

“Am I? And what about you, hmm? Miss secretly happy because the love of her life is suddenly back on the scene.”

She stops fiddling with my top. “It’s not about me this morning. Don’t fuck this up, okay? You have the potential for a good thing with Quinn.”

I lean down and kiss her on the forehead. “Go away and find me coffee. I need a shower.”

“That deal I was brokering in the Velvet Mansion is sinking. I need to manage it ASAP. I’ll be home before we need to go to Quinn’s this evening. What time was it again?”

After we finished recruiting we went for pizza, like Quinn promised, and then agreed to meet at the back of her shop tonight ready to plan and train.

“Six.”

“Alright, see you tonight.”

She closes the door.

“I still want that coffee,” I shout after her.

“You’ve got legs,” she bellows, and then the front door slams shut.

I get up, shower, and get dressed. When I’m ready, I open my rucksack looking for my purse.
