“Hey, Andrew. Can I talk to ya a sec?”
I rolled my eyes as Caleb trotted up to me.
“Can ya make it quick? Someone’s gotta relieve Katie soon to go train,” I said.
“The hell’s she trainin’ for?” Caleb asked.
“She’s not just our front desk face. She’s also takin’ over work when our lawyer quits. Remember all that? You fuckin’ signed her up for it.”
“Shit. Yeah. Sorry. I’m distracted.”
“No fuckin’ joke. You good?” I asked.
“Look, I’m just gonna ask. You think there’s somethin’ goin’ on with Katie and Dylan?”
I furrowed my brow as I turned the question over in my head. Katie and Dylan? Why the hell was he asking about Katie and Dylan?
“Honestly? I thought somethin’ was goin’ on with Katie and Wyatt,” I said.
“Katie and Wyatt?”
“Yep.”
“Shit,” he said.
“What the hell makes you think there’s somethin’ with Katie and Dylan?” I asked.
“The other day she was comin’ outta one of the rooms on the second floor. I asked her why she was here, and she said she’d stayed for that party the family had.”
“Yeah. I snuck a dance with her before I left. I was fuckin’ tired. Didn’t wanna stick around for three hours of dancin’ with the cousins,” I said.
“I didn’t even do that. Just popped my head in to say hey and left. Katie told me Dylan set her up in a room ‘cause she had too much beer that night.”
“So what?” I asked.
“When I saw Dylan later that same mornin’, he had this pep in his step. Said he’d gotten laid that night.”
“The night of the dance?”
“Yup.”
“And you think the two of them screwed.”
“I do. He wasn’t forthcomin’ ‘bout anythin’. No name. No details. Nothin’. You know how Dylan is with that kinda stuff. He’s ready to fill you in on more details that you really wanted.”
I thought for a minute. “I can see how you’d think there was somethin’ goin’ on with them. But just ‘cause Dylan got laid and Katie had too much to drink don’t mean they fucked.”
“Then why the hell you thinkin’ there’s somethin’ between her and Wyatt?” he asked.
“Just had an encounter with them a few days ago. They went for a walk. Ya know after she blew ya off in the hallway.”
“She didn’t blow me off,” he said.
“Whatever. Anyway, I went out on the porch to get some sun, and they were all the way at the edge of the property. Down by the trees. They were tiny little specks, but they were pretty close. Came back up the hill and they were all close and gigglin’ and shit. Pretty sure somethin’ happened between the two of them down by the edge of the woods.”
“Would Katie do somethin’ like that?” he asked.
“I don’t know,” I said with a shrug. “Not like we ain’t shared women before,” I said.
