Chapter 8

Andi poured batter onto the grill to make a plate of pancakes before the diner opened. Billy was having some, as was the dishwasher—Danny from the Bakery. She had bacon going, some sausage, and was mixing up the biscuit batter for the other customers when Billy came back in the kitchen with her.

“Coffee is made. I got all the filters ready and full of measured coffee like you suggested. That’ll save some time. I have a feeling that we’re going to be really busy this morning.” She handed him his plate of pancakes and told him where the meat was. “I called in Danny. He needed a minute.”

He was just sitting down when Danny came in. The man was smiling, a rarity as far as Andi had been able to see. He asked her how long the biscuits were going to be, and she thought the man had a real sweet tooth when he pulled out a quart of strawberry jam to go with them.

“I can pop some in the oven to be done in about eight minutes.” Rolling out a portion of the dough, she watched the two men eat. “You guys ever hear of moderation?”

“Sure, it’s one of those diet words.” Andi laughed at Billy as he shoveled a forkful of pancakes in his mouth. When he was finished chewing, he turned to her. “You cook like this at home? If so, I bet Mac will be hitting the gym a lot more.”

“I cook us dinner when Bethany and Rogers are out. Did you know that they were bears?”

Billy said that he did. She knew that Billy was something but not sure what, and that Danny was human. A human who had a lot of problems. Mostly in dealing with depression.

“I knew that, yes. Does that bother you?” She told him it didn’t, but she was learning a lot of things that she’d not known before. “I’m betting you are. And these are the best pancakes that I have ever eaten. Hell, girl, you haven’t cooked a bad thing yet.”

“Yeah, you got that right. I tell you, a man could go on up to heaven if he knew this is what he’d be getting every day up there.” Billy asked her how much longer on the biscuits. “I’m gonna get me some honey next time I’m in town. They got some next door, but I didn’t think I could bring me in a gallon of it. Stormy, she uses it for some cookies she makes.”

“I’ll put honey on the list of things we need. I love honey and butter on a warm biscuit.” When the timer dinged, she turned to pull the dozen warm breads from the oven. They were just the way she loved them, golden and flaky. The buttermilk on the top helped with that pretty color. “Here you go, boys, have at it.”

There was a noise out front just as she was using the large round cutter to cut the batch of biscuits for the diner.
