Chance wasn’t buying it, not that I could blame him. But what just transpired did not need to leave this hut. EVER.
“I’m going to find the happy couple. They left sometime during the night to find a tree to fuck in.”
“Seriously?” I asked.
“Hell if I know,” Chance muttered. “I’m beginning to think I should have gone home to face Maggie.”
He walked out the door, leaving me alone with Jackson. I hauled him off his feet and shoved him against the hut wall. “If you ever tell anyone about that, I will make sure you never see the light of day again. Are we understood?”
“Dude, like I would ever tell on you. We have enough secrets between us that we don’t want to get out.”
“Yeah, like, what was really in your basement closet.”
He paled as I stepped back. “Right. We don’t need that coming out.”
“If you think people would make fun of me, I’m sure you can imagine what they would do to you if they found out your deep, dark secret.”
“You can’t prove it,” he said, trying to get the upper hand.
“I can’t?”
“The house was sold years ago. Whatever you think you saw in there is long gone.”
“Is it? You know what the kids say nowadays. Pics or it didn’t happen.” A sly smile filled my face as I turned away from him. I had him now. There was no way he’d ever rat on me.
“Cressida.”
I stopped at the sound of my own voice and spun around to face Jackson, who was smirking at me. “I have evidence, too, asshole.”

INTERVIEW WITH ROB
Rob walks in, looks around in confusion before sitting in the chair across from me.
Rob: Hey, Giulia. What’s going on?
Giulia: Rob, I think we need to have a talk about where your character is headed in this story.
Rob: Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. See, now that I have this woman, I was thinking maybe we could do some kind of assassin thing where we save the day and then have one of those weddings Hunter always does.
Giulia: Yeah, I don’t think that’s going to happen.
Rob: But…why?
Giulia: I’m not sure I see you with this woman. Frankly, I can’t even remember her name.
Rob laughs.
Rob: To tell you the truth, I don’t even know what she’s saying half the time.
Giulia: You never know what she’s saying, and frankly, I’m getting tired of translating everything on Google. I’m not even sure if it’s accurate.
Rob: Well…that doesn’t mean we can’t be together.
Giulia: Rob, we need to face a hard truth here. I’m not cut out to write characters from foreign countries.
Rob: But what about those Slovak people? You wrote about them.
