Chapter Four

I WAS pissed. My best friend was keeping secrets from me, the guy I thought I’d been in love with ten years ago didn’t even fucking remember me, and Arad Hadjian, the other policeman in town, was parked in my driveway when I got home after the rest of my hellacious day.

“Move your goddamn car!” I yelled as I stalked up my lawn, furious that he was sitting on my next door neighbor’s porch sipping what looked like homemade lemonade.

“I’m not in your driveway; I’m in Mrs. Sorrel’s!” he roared back after stilling the rocking chair and leaning forward to glare at me.

“This is mine,” I bellowed, making the hatchet gesture with both hands so he’d know what I was talking about before turning to do the same thing to the next driveway over—on the other side of her white-fenced lawn. “That’s hers. Get your car outta my way!”

“Why don’t you come have some lemonade,” he coaxed in an obvious attempt to soothe me.

I flipped him off, waved to Mrs. Sorrel, and then charged around the side of my small wood shingle-and-stone craftsman home to my back fence.

Before I could get it open, Arad was there, grabbing my arm and wrenching me around to face him.

“Dude, what the fuck?”

“Just move your car! Is that too much to ask?”

“No,” he said, letting me go slowly.

“It’s my house, not yours. I’d like to put my own car in my own driveway.”

“Oh,” he said, drawing the word out. “This is about Renaldi’s date.”

I growled, pivoted, opened and closed the fence, and jogged to the back door.

“You should talk to him instead of just being a dick to everyone!”

The idea that everyone thought I was in love with my best friend was horrifying, and I saw only one way to change that perception. I needed to get laid.
