“Umm, no. Nothing.”
“Right, well. See you, Shea.”
“See you,” she gives a little wave.
I feel her eyes staring at my ass as I walk away.
Shit.I think I have an admirer.

“HaveyouandLiamspoken yet?” Wren asks through the phone.
It’s been three weeks since Liam joined the tour. Three weeks of the cold shoulder, clipped answers, and a lot of tension. Even though it annoys me to no end, he’s followingmyground rules. But after the last show in Atlantic City, he came to the green room with his usual RSF. I didn’t want to get into an argument with him, so I just let it go. Three weeks later, here we are.
“He grunts at me and orders me around when he needs to.”
“Sounds kind of like normal Liam to be honest,” Wren chuckles. “Ben won’t tell me anything about it. Says it’s between you and Liam.”
“It’s probably because there’s nothing between us. He’s here for a job, just like you asked him to do, and he’s doing it well.”
In fact, we haven’t heard a peep from the stalker in the weeks Liam’s been here. Maybe the sound bite in Waves Magazine kept him at bay. I know that I wouldn’t want to go against Liam in a fight. Dude is huge.
Wren lets out a dramatic sigh. “Have you tried to talk to him?”
“You know the answer to that question. There’s nothing to say to him.”
“You know that’s not true. Have you ever thought to just talk about what happened back then?”
I groan. “It’s not going to happen Wren. He’s here doing a job, not to reconcile with me, and I’m here to entertain people.”
Wren pauses for a moment. “Birdie, you know you’re not just entertainment, right? You’re a real person, and I think you and Liam could actually be something if you both—”
“I’m going to stop you right there. I’m fine. My life is good, and Liam is doing what Liam has to do. I don’t want to talk about it anymore.”
“But—”
“Nope,” I cut her off again. “No buts.”
“Fine. Then tell me where the hell you are in the US.”
“Orlando.”
“Ooh, Disney World?”
“I wish. But we don’t have any time. We have our third show tonight then we go to Atlanta in the morning for another couple of shows.”
“Dang. No rest for the wicked.”
“None,” I laugh. “But I’m going to the spa today. Liam got the whole place closed off for me so he can keep the perimeter clear or whatever.”
“Sounds romantic.”
I snort. “More like expensive.”
“You could ask Liam to give you a massage.”
