“I guess not. Welcome home, Sadie.”

“It’s good to be back,” she said softly. “I missed you too, you know?”

“Of course you did. How could you not?”

She rolled her eyes. “But you know, I am looking for a boyfriend, Wyatt, and …” She paused.

“What? Spit it out.”

“You make it harder.”

“I make what harder?”

“Goofball. You make it harder for me to find a boyfriend.”

“How do I make it harder for you to find a boyfriend?”

“Because we’re always together. And men just assume that we’re together like boyfriend, girlfriend or something. So they don’t approach me.”

“Um, that’s not true.”

“It is true. When I was in Idaho, all these different guys approached me, and I was telling my cousins that never happens here.”

“Maybe the men in Idaho just aren’t as polite.”

“No, it’s because they see you with me and they think I’m taken, but I’m not taken.”

“So what? What do you want to do?”

“I think I need to hang out sometimes without you.”

“You do hang out without me.” I rolled my eyes. “What are you talking about?”

“I mean, maybe a little bit more.”

“You don’t want to hang out with me? What, are you trying to end our friendship or something? Are you crazy, Sadie? Are you so man-crazy that you’re going to end our friendship just so you can go on the prowl for a man?”

“No, that’s not what I’m saying. I’m just saying that …” She sighed, “Obviously I’m not going to end our friendship, and obviously I’m not going to stop hanging out with you, but I will need more me time.”

“Okay. Is this like, a feminine thing?”

“No, it’s not a feminine thing, but I guess I’ll be hanging out with Olivia and Lucy again.”

“Beau and Austin aren’t going to like you taking their girlfriends to go prowl for other men. Trust me on that.”

“I’m not going on the prowl for anything. Why are you so condescending to me, Wyatt Hamilton?”

“I’m not condescending to you, and since when have you used SAT words?”

“Since forever, because I’m smart.”

“Uh-huh. So what are we going to do tonight?” I said changing the subject.

“I don’t know. What do you want to do?”

“I was thinking maybe we’d watch a movie. You can stay over at the ranch.”

“Okay. You sure your mom and dad won’t mind?”
