Chapter 16

DANICA

Lauren was as pretty as any woman you’d ever meet in town. Long, curly brown hair. Fair skin with these cute little freckles on her cheeks from the Ivory sun. Round brown eyes and a cheerful smile that was the perfect combination of seductive and friendly. She was a few years younger than me, so there was no question that it’d only be a matter of time until she’d be the woman at Finn’s everybody was checking out.

Right now, seeing Lauren go to work was the only thing that kept me in a good mood.

I leaned up against the bar while I waited for my next drink order. She rushed up next to me and put her order in.

“Ugh,” she sighed. “I’m exhausted.”

“Looks like you’re getting a lot of attention tonight.”

“I took your advice. A little more ass and a little more sass have the boys looking my way.”

“That’s the spirit. Just make sure you don’t forget who you really are.”

“Oh, I won’t. Not in a place like this.”

“It’s all a bunch of macho bullshit. Guys coming out here with their dicks out trying to prove they’re the biggest. It gets old.”

I sighed and shook my head. Aden had been on my mind the entire night. I couldn’t get him out of my thoughts even with the chaos of Finn’s surrounding me.

“Danica?”

I wondered what Aden was up to now. I knew better than to get attached to a man, especially one that I barely knew, but bad judgment was getting the best of me.

“Danica!”

Lauren yelled at me. I jerked my head and turned to her.

“What’s wrong?” she said with a frown on her lips.

“Nothing,” I said with a shrug. “I’m fine.”

“Don’t give me that. It’s obvious something is up.”

“…Yeah,” I sighed. “But I don’t think it’s something I can talk about.”

“What is it? Is it the job?”

“The job’s fine.”

“What else could it be? Is it a man?”

I didn’t say anything for a second. That was all Lauren needed to grin at me.

“It is a man,” she said. “You were always telling me to love ‘em and leave ‘em. I never figured you would be the one to be fretting over a boy.”

“I’m not fretting over him. Not in the way you’re thinking. I’m just… I’m worried about him.”

“What’s wrong? He sick?”

“No. I just… I just want to make sure that he’s all right.”

I scoffed at the thought of it. I barely knew Aden and here I was, worried that something was going on with him.

“Why don’t you talk to him?” she asked.

“That’s just it. He said he needed some space. Wanted to figure things out. I just want to figure out what his story is. It’s like he’s hiding something from me and I don’t know what it is.”

“Did you look him up?”

“…What?”

“Look him up. You have a phone, don’t you? Why don’t you search for him on the Internet?”

Lauren gave me a blank stare, her lips twisted. It was so obvious that I wondered why I hadn’t thought of it before.
