“I was going to see if you wanted to come over and hang out, now I’m going to insist on it. Most of the guys are going to be here. You can talk with us about it if you want, or not.”

Normally Luke might resist being told what to do, but right now it was a relief to have a direction. Something to do other than go home and sulk with his dog. Although… now that he thought about it…

“Would it be okay if I bring Molly?” he asked. “Otherwise I’ll just have to leave in about an hour to walk and feed her.”

“Yeah that’s fine,” Patrick reassured him. “You’re lucky Lexie’s not here though. If she comes home while you’re still over, I just want to be clear, I take absolutely no responsibility if your dog suddenly disappears. Lexie is obsessed with that dog.”

Surprisingly, Luke found it within himself to chuckle. Lexie had definitely fallen in love with Molly when she’d first met the pup, and the feeling had been mutual. Then again, Molly was pretty much a love whore. She loved anyone who loved her. Even a few people who didn’t.

Hanging up, he put his car into gear.

“Hello?” Jared’s deep, smooth tone almost made her even more annoyed.

She’d spent the past twenty minutes trying to calm herself down and look at the security systems, but every time she looked at them now, she just got pissed all over again as Luke’s words echoed in her ears. Now she really couldn’t deal with looking at the systems.

“Come over.” It wasn’t a question. She needed her best friend and knew he’d be there, that her shortness would convey her need more fully than a thousand words would.

He paused for just a moment. “Okay. Your place?”

“Yes.” She loved Leigh, but right now she just wanted her best friend, not her best friend and his girlfriend.

“Okay, it’ll take me about thirty minutes.”

Now it was Olivia’s turn to pause. “You aren’t home?”

“I was going to dinner at Patrick’s, but you sound like you need me.”

“I do.” She hesitated again. “Don’t tell him? Not yet?”

Because Patrick would want to come too and right now she wasn’t really sure whose side he would come down on.

“No problem. I’m on my way.”
