Lottie

My due date comes and goes without any fanfare.

Dr. Barnette says I’m not even close to having this baby. She suggests lots of sex, and Noah volunteers for the effort. Sad to say, I am this close to taking him up on it. I hate this sexual drought Jimmy Canelli has brought into my life. Everett isn’t too thrilled with it either.

It’s evening. Noah has brought over a couple of pizzas from our favorite Italian restaurant, Mangias, and Everett picked up Wicked Wok. Basically, the two of them are doing whatever I ask now, seeing that my body has decided having a baby isn’t something it wants to do at any time in the near future.

We eat out on the sofa as our lives devolve into some adult version of a frat house. Both Noah and Everett are suspended from their careers. And at this point, I’m more or less an accessory at the bakery—a rather large, very much in the way accessory that no one has any use for.

So tonight we’re satiating our appetites watching Pancake and Waffles jumping all around Lil’ Mama and trying to have their way with the perky poltergeist—sadly only Carlotta and I can see the real show. But for some reason, I’m beginning to think Pancake and Waffles can see Lil’ Mama, too.

“These boys are frisky, Lottie.” She barks my way and I watch, amused, as her silky white fur shimmies like a waterfall with her every move. “And from what they tell me, I’m not the only ghostly ghoul who has winked their way. They’re quite the hot commodity among the dead.”

I nod her way because it’s true. My sweet furry boys have attracted their fair share of dearly departed friends. They’re essentially chick magnets. It seems to be a running theme in my life with the men I choose to spend my time with—the chick magnet part.

Noah and Everett are basically chick magnets themselves, with the exception they attract the living.

Carlotta points the pizza slice in her hand at Everett. “So what’s the scoop on the dirty judge that was blown away in Fallbrook?”

Evie nods. “I bet he’s the one they gunned down. Hate to break it to you, Dad. But whoever you ticked off enough to blow up your car is probably getting ready to hunt you down. Face it, they’ve got a vendetta, and it’s open season on judges.”

Noah shakes his head at her. “It’s not happening. Your dad is safe, Evie. Let’s just say I’ve got friends in gun-wielding places. I’ve called out more than a few favors. There’s an entire parade of patrol cars circling the neighborhood—and the bakery. Nobody is getting gunned down on my watch. It might be open season, but it’s open season for anyone breaking the law, and that includes whoever thinks they have a beef with your dad, or the person who is responsible for that double homicide. So don’t be afraid. And please don’t worry about your dad. He’s going to be okay, I promise.
