“Sam, dude.”
“What?This is a case.”
“You cannot let this girl get too close to you.She seems like she’s nice.”
“Yeah, and?”
“And I don’t want you breaking her heart.”
“I’m not going to break her heart.”
“She’s sleeping in your bed right now.”
I chewed down on my lower lip.“We’re just friends.”
“Because all your female friends sleep in your bed.”
“You’re one to talk, Stefano.Doesn’t Elise sometimes sleep in your bed still?”
“Because we’re best friends,” he said quickly, “and …”
“And what?You’re adults.You can’t tell me you’ve never had a boner sleeping next to Elise.”
“Dude, I’m not even going to answer that.”
“So it’s true.You have.”
“Dude.”He sighed.“Anyway, I’ve got to go.”
“Oh, you’ve got to go now that I brought up Elise?”
“She’s your sister.”
“No, she’s not our sister, Stefano.Yeah, her mom has been like a mom to us, but she never married Dad, so Elise is no relation of ours.”
“Anyway, I don’t know why we’re talking about Elise when we have a much bigger problem here.”I sighed.He was right.Elise and Stefano’s relationship was the least of my concerns right now.
“So I will contact you later.Maybe we can meet up for lunch and talk about this.Okay?”
“Okay.”
“And Sam?”
“Yes, Stefano?”
“Please don’t fuck this up for us.”
“What are you talking about?”
“With Valentina.We need that money.You know that.”
“I know that.”
“Okay.Just do what you have to do and move on.She seems like a nice girl, and her friend Gabriella seemed nice too, but these aren’t our people, okay?We don’t know them, and we don’t owe them anything.Get in, get out, cash the check, and move on.”
“I know, Stefano.You don’t have to tell me how we do business.I am in charge of the Valenti Fix-It Agency.”
“Just remember that, okay?”
