“Yeah?”
“You’ve got to come clean to Becket.”
Fuck.
Once I leave Rylie’s house, I check in with Imogen to make sure Brynlee’s set, then text Becks.
Cade:Hey can I have Scarlet’s address?
Becks:Is she going to kick me in the balls the next time I see her?
Cade:Why would she do that?
Becks:Why are you asking me for her address instead of asking her?
Becks:And if you two are so close, why don’t you know it already?
Becks:Should I be worried you’re a stalker?
Cade:No dumbass. Rylie made some soup for Scarlet. I want to stop by and surprise her with it.
Cade: Kinda loses the surprise if I ask her where she lives first.
Becks:Well I wouldn’t stop by now.
Cade:Why?
Becks:Because she’s not there. She’s in her office. I saw her five minutes ago.
Becks:Us corporate dumbasses are usually in the office until five or six.
Becks:Scarlet rarely leaves before seven.
Cade:Can you send me her address anyway?
The dots start and stop a few times before Becks shoots off her address.
Cade:Thanks, man.
Becks:Don’t make me regret it.
With a plan in place and my mind made up, I head back to Crucible.
If she needs space, I’ll give her what she needs.
For now.
