“Not me,” I say adamantly. “And not just because I have a guy, but because that is ancient history.”

“I’m not worried,” she says with a confident smile. “I even like you. And trust me, I don’t like just anyone.”

I laugh in relief. “Well, good. And back at you. I guess being guarded is a necessity.”

“Luke mentioned that you’d like to use the studio.”

“If it’s not being used for Nash stuff, I’d really love to. I’m in Seattle for at least a couple more months, and I’ve written some songs I’d like to record.”

“I’ll have Leo call you,” she says.

“Thank you. Really.”

She clinks her glass to mine just as Jules and Natalie come join us from the dance floor.

Brynna, Stacy, and Meredith are dancing with Jax. Joy and Lia are at the bar with Alecia. Anastasia, Lia’s sister, is with the DJ, discussing what songs to play next.

They’re a fun group of women. Actually, that’s not right. They’re a ridiculously fun group of women.

“God, I’m out of shape,” Nat says as she takes a sip of her drink.

“You need to hit the gym more,” Jules says as she tries to take a sip of her martini. But she misses the straw, and it stabs her in the cheek. “I’m such a lightweight these days. Two drinks and I’m under the table.”

“Or on it,” Nat says. “It’s too bad Nic and Meg couldn’t come.”

“They have tiny babies at home,” Jules says. “Nic and Matt’s baby was finally born, and they just got home with her a few days ago.”

“Awe, that’s awesome.” I sigh happily at the thought. Nic wanted kids for years but wasn’t able to get pregnant because of being a diabetic and having PCOS. But they adopted a baby girl, and I just couldn’t be happier for them.

“Let’s send them a selfie of all of us,” Jules says. “Come on, hold up your glasses.”

We comply, smiling for Jules’ phone as she snaps the photo and sends it to Nic and Meg.

“The waitress is bringing another round,” Lia says as she and Joy join us. This is a club full of dozens of tables, and we’re all crammed around this one.

I love it.

“Are you sure you don’t want anything stronger than Coke?” Joy asks me.

“No, I don’t drink much alcohol.”

“More for us,” Lia says with a smile. “Also, your makeup is on point tonight.”

“Thanks. Jax did it.”

“Those women are crazy,” Jax says as he hurries to the booth and scoots in next to me. “All of you are fucking nuts.”

“Speak of the devil.” I smile at my friend. “Why are you afraid of women?”

“I’m not. Unless it’s the Montgomery clan, and then it’s fucking frightening. You all dance up on me and ask me to describe a blowjob from a man’s point of view and all of the other shit. This is why I don’t come to girls’ night out.”

“You love us,” Mer reminds him. Stacy and Brynna are behind her, laughing with their arms around each other. “Let’s pull another table over. Make it a big one.”

“Good idea,” Brynna says, and in no time at all, there’s enough table space and seats for everyone. The DJ has lowered the music just a smidge so we can hear each other, and a fresh wave of drinks is delivered.

“I’m just shocked y’all wanted to come out on a Wednesday,” I confess. “It’s a school night for all of you.”

“Not for me,” Sam says with a laugh.

“Luke’s awesome about stuff like this,” Nat says with a flick of her wrist, narrowly avoiding knocking over her drink.

“Honestly, all of our husbands are,” Brynna says with a smile. “And let’s be frank, they’ll all get a blowjob of the century for tonight. Not that we shouldn’t be able to go out with our friends, but it’s pretty cool.”

“Let’s talk about blowjobs,” Stacy says, eyeing Jax, who sinks down in his seat.

“No,” Jax says.

“Don’t be a killjoy,” Anastasia says. “Not all of us have heard this, so you need to spill it.”

“I’ve talked about it, over and over.”

“Not when we were here,” Joy reminds him. “Come on, you like being the center of attention.”

“What do you want to know?”

Of course, they wore him down. Joy was right, Jax does like being the center of attention.

“What does it feel like?” Lia asks.

“It feels like a blowjob.”

“Well, we don’t have dicks,” Anastasia reminds him. “So, explain please.”

“It feels like someone is sucking on your skin, and it feels really good.”

“That’s it?” Brynna asks. “That’s not what you said last time.”

“I’m going to write a fucking manual and just hand it out at the beginning of GNO so you can reference it and I don’t have to go over it again.”

We laugh at him, and he proceeds to describe a blowjob from start to finish.

“Orgasms!” Natalie exclaims, her glass in the air. “That’s what I’m talkin’ about.”
