Chapter Seven

“What does Blair like?” Dwayne asked.

Ben looked at him with a frown. “Why are you asking me?”

“Because you know her.”

“No, no, I said we went to school together, but that didn’t mean I know her or what she likes. You know her better than I do.”

They were playing cards, waiting for any emergency calls that would require their attention. They were on a late shift as these were shared among the men. Two weeks he had a morning shift, then two weeks, he did a night shift. This meant that no one had an issue in their lives, and it was what the Chief organized and it suited everyone. Of course, that meant he didn’t get to see Blair until the morning so they didn’t get to sleep together. He missed having her in his arms though.

“So, it’s serious between the two of you?”

“No, we’re just having fun.” To him it was serious though. She was the only woman he thought about from the moment he woke up to the time he went to sleep. It was all Blair.

“You don’t sound so convinced by that.”

He glanced over his cards at his friends. “I’m not talking about this with you.”

“Fine, fine. Be a bore. You do know who you should talk to though, right?”

“Who?”

“Either her brother, mother, or her father. You know, your boss.”

“Stop being a smart ass.” There was no way he was going to ask Chief Curtis for information on how to woo his daughter or what she liked.

They finished their cards, and the rest of the evening went by without a hitch. By six o’clock it was time for him to head home, and he did so, wishing for Blair to be with him. He crashed out on his bed for a couple of hours, and woke up at exactly ten-thirty. He’d never been a big sleeper, and always found a reason to not be asleep. Climbing out of bed, he took a shower and left his home, making his usual stop at the diner.

He took Blair some lunch and sat with her. She had a lot of work to get through though, and he spent most of it watching her.

“I’m so sorry that I’m a bore today. There’s just so much to do.”

“Don’t you worry about it.”

“Oh, I wanted to tell you. The first photo shoot is this weekend near the town hall. Will you be available then?”

“Will you be there?” he asked.

“Yes. I’ll be there for every single one.”

“Then I’ll be there. Wherever you are, I’ll be.”

“You’re way too good for me.” She leaned over the desk. “I will make it up to you, I promise. It’s just crazy.”

“Hey, I know what you mean. I’ve not seen you for some time.”

“I know, and I miss you at night. Just a few more nights.”

He gripped the back of her neck, claiming her lips. “Don’t worry about it.”

Releasing her, he left the sheriff’s office and made his way straight toward the chief’s home. He knew that his boss wouldn’t be home, and he hoped to talk to his wife, Blair’s mother.
