Chapter Fourteen

“I am so not okay with this.”

I was pacing back and forth in June’s store, smacking my fist in my palm.

“How dare he think a few sweet nothings can discourage me from investigating this mess I’m in.”

Andrea was sitting on the counter swinging her legs back and forth with a wide grin on her face.

“Did he really kiss you? Do you have any idea how many girls in this town have been vying for that man’s attention, and you are here less than a week and he’s already making out with you in the park? I’m jealous but also happy for you, cuz!”

“Were you listening to anything I just said? How can you go there when I have been locked away from society, practically on house arrest, all because some lunatic is out there killing people and trying to possibly get at me?”

Andrea sighed dreamily. This was not going as I hoped it would. I called her at the crack of dawn, and true friend that she was turning out to be, she ran over here as fast as she could, even skipping her breakfast. Three years my junior, the minute I told her everything that transpired yesterday, she wouldn’t stop going on about our, as she put it, “make-out” session with her youthful exuberance. Okay, if I stopped to think about it long enough, I too would get an imprudent look on my face, but right now? Right now, I was mighty pissed off at the man in question.

The minute Brian realized his pleas were not being heeded, he went rogue and told everyone in my family I was in danger, causing the entire clan to join forces and lock me away at June’s, with guards. Guards, mind you! Posted at every exit! Even Douglas was perched on a tree limb, assigned to Jake’s old treehouse out behind the shop, making sure I wouldn’t sneak out my bedroom window and go off in search of a murderer.

I mean, really!

How could they think I’d stoop so low?

Did they really know me that well in only five days? Huh…I had intelligent relations, at least.

“How was it? Does he kiss as good as I imagined?”

I had to stop and shake my head to remove the image that suddenly invaded my thoughts and went on to chastise Andrea. She finally realized she wouldn’t get more salacious details out of me and focused on what was disturbing me, after I promised to give her a play by play of the spicy details at a later date. Who was I kidding? I couldn’t wait to relive all that again, once I was over being mad at Brian, that was.

“You have to help sneak me out of here. I need to get to my house and search for something. With all that has happened since I arrived, I totally forgot what my mother wrote in her letter to me. Somewhere in my home might be information on everything that happened back before I was born and leading up to why we left.
