Chapter 20

January 3

The next night, Rowan, Clem, and Nova waited with Bryn, Teagan, and Dakota at Seashells for Alyssa and Brooke to arrive.

Suddenly, Nova gave a long squeal and jumped to her feet.

“S’up, bitches!” She threw her arms around two very pretty women who appeared at their table and hugged her back hard before they looked around at everyone.

“Bryn Armstrong. Jesus H. Christ, you still look like a fucking giraffe.” The short redhead winked at Rowan, figuring out she was undoubtedly Bryn’s girlfriend, and warmly shook her hand before hugging the hell out of Bryn.

Bryn laughed and kissed the irrepressible woman on the cheek before introducing her to Rowan. “Dulzura, this is Alyssa Riker, extraordinary art therapist and world-class troublemaker.”

Alyssa huffed and rolled her eyes. “She still hasn’t forgiven me for tying her shoelaces together when we were in third grade,” she confided to Rowan.

Rowan's eyes rounded before she burst into peals of laughter. “How in the world did you manage to get away with that?” she asked between gasps.

“Easy. I hid behind Mama Armstrong, who wouldn’t let Bryn touch me.” Alyssa was smug as she stuck her tongue out at Bryn.

Rowan laughed until her stomach hurt and decided on the spot that she flat-out adored Alyssa Riker.

Rowan eyed Bryn, who narrowed her eyes playfully at her woman and let the heat of her eyes promise all sorts of delicious payback.

The cool blonde with Alyssa smirked and shook Rowan’s hand in easy friendship as well. “Welcome to Looney Tunes Central, Rowan. Please keep your hands and feet inside the ride at all times.”

Rowan giggled again.

The woman then caught sight of Teagan and laughed with joy.

“Casanova! How in the hell are you?” The pretty blonde, who was evidently Brooke, hugged Teagan tightly, then leaned over and kissed Dakota on the cheek. “Dakota! Holy shit, it’s like fucking old school week in here.”

She turned her attention back to Rowan and smiled at her happily. “I’m Brooke Marino, Rowan, and I do graphic design for a lot of the local craft breweries. Can I just say I am excited as hell about what you’re doing? Seriously, we are both so glad we might be able to help you out and that the squirt there thought to call us.”

Nova stuck her middle finger up at Brooke, who was about 5’6” tall compared to Nova’s 5’1”, then gave her a cheek kiss.

Rowan introduced Clem to the two women and everyone settled themselves with something to drink.

“When Nova called us, we were excited to find out your plans to open the Whimsy Creative Arts Center.” Alyssa spoke seriously, putting her teasing on the back burner for a moment. “There are a lot of artists in Whimsy, Rowan, but we have never really had an organized central art center. I teach art therapy, which I know Nova’s told you about, and I certainly don’t lack for clients, but I usually meet with them at the Whimsy Rec Center. Some of my clients are managing addictions, some are
