CHAPTER 13

After finally finding a parking space one block from the Fig Leaf, Drew got out of her car and hurried toward the nightclub. A glance at her watch showed that it was half past ten. She was thirty minutes late.

Her cell phone chirped. She took a look. Lynn again. Great. During the forty-minute drive to the nightclub, she had already gotten two text messages from Lynn and one from Erica, asking her where she was and informing her that they were waiting inside. “Yeah, yeah, yeah. On my way.” She waited in line for a few minutes, paid the cover charge, and took a deep breath before she entered the Fig Leaf.

Loud music and flashing lights engulfed her. She gritted her teeth against the noise and made her way through the crowd in front of the long bar. Someone bumped into her and spilled a sticky drink all over Drew’s hands.

Drew groaned as she tried to shake off the liquid. Having Annie spill wine on her had been much nicer. Stop thinking about Annie!

She continued to weave through the crowd. After a long day in the winery, she wasn’t in the mood to have her feet trampled on a tiny dance floor, but she hadn’t seen her friends since Halloween, so at least catching up with them would be nice.

“Hey, Drew!” someone shouted from the left.

When Drew turned, she discovered that her friends had commandeered one of the small, round tables along one wall.

“Finally!” Lynn said when Drew walked up to them. She hugged Drew, pressing a bit too close and holding on a few seconds too long.

Drew returned the hug for a moment, then pulled back and eyed the almost empty drink on the table in front of Lynn. Oh, great. Another evening of trying to let Lynn down gently. She turned to greet the rest of her friends. “Sorry for being late. The couple just couldn’t agree on which wines to serve at their wedding.”

“If they can’t even agree on that, the marriage is doomed.” Becky leaned back in her chair and pulled Sam onto her lap.

Sam half-turned and gently hit her wife’s muscular shoulder. “Gosh, you’re such a romantic. Remind me why I married you?”

“Yeah, you should have married me instead of the big unromantic ox over there,” Drew said, her voice raised. The shouting was already getting on her nerves, and she wished they had gotten a table that wasn’t so close to the dance floor.

Sam grinned. “I offered, but you didn’t give me the time of day.”

Drew rolled her eyes. “I was five years old, and you were just after my lunch box when you proposed.”

“Now who’s the big unromantic ox?” Becky nudged her wife, pulled her around, and kissed her.

Even though Drew averted her gaze to respect her friends’ privacy, images of Annie kissing her flashed through her mind. She tried to distract herself by scanning the crowd for familiar faces. A few of the women on the dance floor were attractive, but tonight, none of them captured her interest.
