Taking a quick glance back over to the hot lawyer, I nodded my head. “Spending the evening with family.”
There. That should give her the hint.
“Oh, I see. Well, if you ever feel like hanging out, give me a call.”
Focusing back on her, I smiled. “Will do, Jess. Have a good evening.”
I could see the disappointment in her eyes. It made me feel like shit, but she knew from the get-go it was simply a fuck and go. That’s what I did. What I’ve always done. Sometimes with more than one girl at a time.
She forced a smile. “See ya around, Finn.”
“See ya.”
Colton walked up with a shit-eating grin. “Damn, dude, once you poke and stoke ’em they’re hooked and hard to get rid of.”
Rolling my eyes, I shook my head. “You’re an asshole.”
“Just call it like I see it.”
I’d had enough of this day. It was time to find out more about the lawyer and get the hell out of here. I turned back to where she had been standing, and my stomach dropped.
She was gone.
“Where did she go?” I asked while frantically looking around the room.
“The chick you were making eyes with?” Colton asked.
“Yeah.”
“She left.”
My jaw clenched. Son-of-a-bitch. Zeb walked up to me and stopped short, his expression concerned. “You have that look on your face again.”
“What look?” I bit out.
“The one where you want to rip someone’s head off.”
“Fuck. The lawyer left before I even got her damn name.”
Colton and Zeb both laughed. Some friends they were. “Damn, dude, I’ve never seen you this interested in a woman before. Maybe all your mom’s nagging is starting to sink in,” Colton said with a chuckle.
Shaking my head, I looked him in the eyes. “Fuck that. Did you see her ass?”
With a nod, he replied, “Yeah, I saw it all right. She shouldn’t be hard to track down. She works for the Cap’s wife at her law firm. I think I heard someone call her Lori maybe?”
My phone buzzed in my pocket. Pulling it out, I saw my mother’s name.
Mom: When will you be here?
Sighing, I typed back my response.
Me: Leaving the union meeting now and heading that way.
The gloomy expression on my face should have been a sign to my friends that I was not looking forward to this evening. “I’m heading to Preston’s pub. Mom is throwing me a surprise birthday party. You guys want to come?”
Zeb frowned. “If it’s a surprise party, how do you know about it?”
Lifting my brow, I asked, “Have you never met my mother, Zeb?”
