Chapter 5

"How's it going, lover boy?"

Shane tried to shut the door to his condo in War's face, but his friend just shoved on past him as if he'd been invited with open arms. "Why don't you come on in, War?"

"Don't mind if I do."

Shane was far too tired to deal with War right now. "What do you want?"

"Testy, aren’t you? Is that what happens when you're not getting some regularly? Or is there a reason that you're especially crabby today? Like your new assignment?"

Shane crossed his arms over his chest. "You know, I'm beginning to regret asking Caleb to bring you onto the team too."

His friend only grinned and helped himself to a Coke in the kitchen. "You know, that hurts my feelings."

"Shut up, War. What do you want?"

War took a sip, and then put the can down and scanned him over. "Seriously, you look like shit, man."

"Yeah, well, I'm supposed to be sleeping right now, if some idiot I know would leave and let me."

"I saw the girl, Shane."

Fuck. "What about her?"

"Were you planning on telling Caleb that you know her?"

"Nope."

"Any special reason?"

"Not really, besides it doesn’t matter. The fact that I met her once isn’t going to get in the way of doing my job."

"So we're not going to talk about the fact that she's the first girl I've seen you actually interested in since you got back from your last assignment."

"It's not gonna happen, so it's not a problem."

War shook his head. "Still the same stubborn ass, I see. She’s cute though. And now that I've read the report on how she slipped her detail that night at the club and how you got to meet her, I think she's fun."

"You would think she's fun."

"Nothing wrong with throwing off the shackles a little."

Shane cocked his head. "Is that why you came over? To tell me to spread my wings? I'm good, thanks."

War sighed and shook his head. "I'm just checking on you. I saw you with her last night, man. And this morning. It looks like something. Maybe just this once, you forget all the rules and you enjoy your post a little."

Oh, hell no. He knew what happened when he let himself want anything. "It's called friendship. You should try it with a woman sometime. You know you can actually talk to them instead of just having sex."

War's eyes went wide. "You mean they can talk? I think you're missing out on the whole point of women."

Despite himself, Shane chuckled. "Dude, you're such an asshole."

His friend shrugged. "I've been called worse."

"Why did you really come over?"

War leaned against the counter, hung his head, and cleared his throat. "I wasn't listening in on purpose, man, but I was in the back of the diner, and once you tagged her phone, I was listening in to the signal.

Oh, shit. What had he heard? "I don't know what you're talking about."

He leveled a gaze on him. "At some point you're going to need to deal with the shit with your dad.
