Chapter Nine
Don had every right to yell at her. Ana was distracted. She missed her cues. Her fishtail wasnât fitting right, probably because she was a little bloated from that huge meal she had a Dakitchen.
No regrets.
For any of it.
She was distracted because she kept thinking about that moment when Makoa said that he loved her. It replayed over and over in her mind. All she wanted to do was seek him out and spend more time with him so she could be sure it was real. People didnât fall in love that fast, did they?
âWhat is wrong with you?â Maud hissed, pulling herself up and out of the tank. âYouâve missed your cues three times. Don is gong ballistic and Iâm sick of listening to him.â
âSorry. Iâm not myself.â
âI donât care who you are. Just be Eros so we can get this over with and go home.â
Ana got her head back in the game and the dress rehearsal went a little better after that. They still had a long way to go and Ana didnât know how she was going to ask for the night of the wedding off. The Monday Makoa mentioned was four days before opening night. Maybe she could skip that rehearsal? Maybe pigs would fly. She didn't want to miss the wedding, but she had a job to do. She signed a contract. Still, the thought of turning Makoa down was making her miserable. Ana didn't want to disappoint him. If worse came to worse, she could rush over there after rehearsal, if Don let them out before midnight that night. It didn't look like they were going home anytime soon tonight. Crap! What was she going to do?
Don made them run through the program twice more and by the end of it, it was close to two a.m. Everyone was tired and bitchy.
âI want everyone here by noon tomorrow. Weâre going to have the sets, lights and music all coordinated. This will get done.â
Ana felt sorry for the tech crew, but it was a relief to peel off the fin and toss it in her locker. She was done with practicing in the mornings. She just needed to run through the show with the rest of the cast a few more times. Her breathing was spot on and so was her swimming strength.
All she wanted to do was crawl into bed, preferably with Makoa. But she forced herself to call for an Uber. As she was waiting, she texted him.
Are you still up?
Thinking of you, he replied back immediately.
Her toes curled and she smiled. I wish I wasnât so tired.
What are you doing tomorrow?
Making a face, Ana texted back. I might be able to slip away for dinner.
âThere you are,â Don said coming up behind her.
Ana fumbled and nearly dropped her phone. He sat down on the bench next to her, so close she could smell old marijuana smoke on his clothes and he reeked of sweat and alcohol.
âWhat am I going to do with you?â he asked leaning in close to her ear.
