“Autumn, you can’t leave without me.”
“I just did, didn’t I?”
“Where are you going?”
“To visit Cara. You know that.”
Yes, we had plans to visit the author ofEnemy Minetoday, but not for another few hours.
“At noon.”
“I called her and changed the time.”
I grip my phone tighter. “Autumn, please come back. I’ll take you.”
“No, I’m good. I don’t think Cara is going to try to kidnap me or anything. I’m perfectly safe.”
“No one is perfectly safe.”
There’s silence on her end for several seconds. “You really want me to turn back?”
“Yes.”
“Okay, I’ll do it on one condition.”
“What’s that?”
“You fuck me like you wanted to last night.”
“Autumn.”
“Fuck me and don’t push me away afterward. Admit that you want me like you’ve never wanted anyone else. Admit that last night was one of the hottest nights of your life.”
I want to give her all those words. Instead, I swallow them all down. I can’t even find words of denial.
After I never answer her, I hear her make some sort of noise. “I’m not turning back. If you’re so worried, call a fucking Uber.”
With that she disconnects. I call her again, this time she doesn’t answer. Damn it!
I go into the house and grab my keys and wallet. I don’t want an Uber coming to this house in case someone recognizes me, so I jog to the convenience store that’s about a mile down the road. I take an Uber to my apartment where I get my own car. Thankfully, I have Cara’s address in my phone and her place isn’t too far from mine. Autumn’s car is still there when I arrive. I take my phone out and text her.
Me: I’m here. Text me that you’re all good or I’m knocking on the door.
Autumn: Cara has a knife. It’s scary at how terrible she is at cutting brie. And the cracker keeps breaking when she tries to spread it. She’s making a huge ass mess. It’s horrific.
Me: You’re funny.
Autumn: Thank you.
Me: Wasn’t a compliment.
Autumn: I’m choosing to take it as one. Now go fuck yourself. I’m enjoying my visit and you’re ruining it.
I can’t help but to laugh as I lean back into my seat and breathe easy for the first time since she took off. This woman is driving me crazy.
And I kind of love it.
My phone buzzes with a call from Gage. I answer, disconnecting from the car’s Bluetooth so I can talk to him on my phone. “Hey, man.”
