“Well, if it means I’m a friend…” Milo paused as he pulled up his jeans.

“A friend who looks damn good naked.” I couldn’t help the leer because he really did.

Milo’s laugh was deep and musical. “We better find that coffee before you tempt me into saying screw this hunt.”

“There’s another joke there…”

“Behave.” He gently walloped me with his sweatshirt before putting it on. “Doughnuts. Now.”

“Okay, okay.” I grabbed my stuff and led the way back downstairs, slowing my pace for Milo. “And I’m freezing, so we’ll take the car.”

“All right.” Milo grimaced and I couldn’t tell whether it was leg pain or frustration with my thinly veiled attempt to spare him the long walk to the doughnut place.

But my plan didn’t entirely work because I couldn’t find parking near Lee’s Bakery. Milo ended up hopping out to wait in line while I circled the block. When I returned, he had a white box and two steaming cups.

“Yours is hot chocolate. No soda before noon.” Laughing, he settled back in the passenger seat. “And I got you your favorite again, so try not to die of chocolate overload.”

“I’ll try.” I ended up driving us back to campus and parking in the lot near the library so we could enjoy the food.

“Now tell me how this works, anyway,” Milo said as he grabbed a second doughnut.

“So, like the public geocaching sites, you’re hunting hiding spots. These are even more secretive, with hidden lairs that you have to decipher clues to find, and themed caches. This site is all devoted to Odyssey, so if we can follow the clues, then there might, might be a card we can trade for inside. I’ve got the rare I won, plus two other ultra rares to try to equal the value.”

Milo frowned at that. “I don’t want you to have to use your personal stash of cards.”

“Eh. I found these the old-fashioned way, cracking packs.” Shrugging, I looked away. Honestly, I’d gone from resentful that Milo needed my help to being rather invested in his quest. I wanted him happy and wanted him to have a chance to redeem himself with Bruno. And helping him, having what he needed, made me feel twenty feet tall. “I got super lucky with finding the cards, but I haven’t found the right deck for them yet. I don’t mind using them to help you.”

“Well, I appreciate it.” Milo glanced around the parking lot before giving me a fast kiss on the cheek.

“Thanks.” My skin heated as I pulled out my phone and navigated to the site I’d bookmarked. “Let’s look at the first clue.”

Milo quirked his lips as he looked down at my phone with me. “It’s a lineup of Odyssey cards?”
