“I’m not sure what I’m seeing here.”

“We went for a massage,” I said, hoping that would be enough of an explanation.

“And they kicked you out without your clothes?”

“Not exactly.”

His eyebrows shot up. “So, you chose to leave this way?”

Yeah, there was no good way to explain it. I already tried with the officer and now we were in jail and I was sporting taser marks on my chest.

“Are you here to bust us out?” Cash asked, standing and walking over to where Lock stood.

“You? Sure. Him? I think it would do him some good to stay here.”

“Actually, I would really appreciate getting out of here. I left Honey at the spa.”

“And you’re naked,” he pointed out.

“Right, and that. I meant to say that first.”

Lock turned his attention to Cash. “They’re working on your release papers. You should be out in no time.”

“Thank God.”

“Heads up, Eva’s a little pissed that you went for a massage and left her with the baby.”

“I was trying to get answers.”

He nodded. “Yeah, boss, the way I see it, you should have sent Eva to the spa with him to get answers.”

“You might be right.”

“Hey,” I stood, holding onto my towel. “There is nothing wrong with a man taking care of himself. In fact, I would say it’s a priority in our field of work.”

“You mean ours,” Cash said, motioning between him and Lock. “You run around with umbrellas and call it protection.”

“Hey, those umbrellas have worked on numerous occasions,” I argued.

“Well, an umbrella isn’t getting you out of here today,” Lock grinned. “You get to go before the judge.”

“For what?”

“Indecent exposure.”

“It was only indecent because the cop made me move my hands!”

“And you can argue that in court,” Lock grinned.

The officer walked forward and unlocked the cell, letting Cash out. I tried to worm my way out behind him, but didn’t have any luck.

“At least get me some pants!” I shouted as Lock walked away.

“I’ll send Honey over with them later,” he said over his shoulder as he walked away.

Sighing, I sat down on the bench. “Just fucking great.”

A man slumped in the corner sat up and grinned at me. “If it makes you feel better, I think you look great in a towel.”
