  104. Need to debrief?!

I can’t for the life of me work out who this George Watson guy is though, is he a member of the club Kyle and I looked into all those years ago? Why is he only trying to get her to stop looking into everything now? Kinsley has been working with Stanley for three years, has she uncovered more than she is telling me?

“Here’s the catch,” Kinsley’s voice pulls me from my thoughts. “I spoke with Inspector Stanley and he ran multiple checks, George Watson doesn’t exist.”

“Who would be calling you, and why are they using a fake name?” I’m only thinking out loud now, I don’t expect her to have the answers and even if she does, something tells me she is keeping them to herself. But why?

Kinsley grabs the remote, flicking through until she finds a movie she wants to watch. I chuckle to myself, she’s never been into football. As we settle in to watch the movie, my thoughts drift off until I’m standing in the meadow full of wildflowers. Kyle and I are standing with the horses, while watching Kinsley skip, spin and dance. She looks over our way and my lips twitch up into a smirk. Even all those years ago she had me wrapped around her finger.

Chapter Ten

Kinsley

The next few days go by uneventfully, but when Sunday finally rolls around, I start my morning with Soph on FaceTime. Both our phones are propped up in various places whilst she is fussing about what to wear and we get ready for a day out with Jesse and Tanner.

“You’ll look good in whatever you choose,” I say, rolling my lips after applying my favourite raspberry flavoured chapstick.

Sophie huffs, “Yeah, but this is a first impression! I want to make a good one.” Giving me a cheeky wink she spins around showing off her third outfit of the morning, jeans and a cute little flowy crop that shows off just the tiniest amount of her toned stomach.

“Yep! This is the one,” I announce, throwing both my hands in the air in celebration.

“Are you sure?” she asks.

“Yes, definitely. Just grab an extra layer for this morning, it’s probably still chilly out.”

“Okay, thanks Kins! I’ll see you soon!”

“See you soon,” I reply, grinning as I end our call. It’s at this moment I realise that I actually have a girlfriend. It sounds like something so basic, but I’ve never really had a girl best friend and even though I would never want to replace Jesse, it’s nice to have a friend of the female kind.
