“No worries. I guess I’m just practicing for when I have kids.” She leaned toward me and lowered her voice. “So how did it go today?”
“It was fine.”
“I need all the details, Arya.” She grinned at me.
“All what details?” I said, flustered. I was already feeling slightly discombobulated after my conversation with Chet. I needed to analyze why what he’d said had made me upset, even though I knew he was just being honest.
“Well, did you guys have fun?” She raised her eyebrow at me.
“I’m not sure what sort of fun you’re talking about,” I lied.
“Did you guys do the deed?”
I burst out laughing. “No, we did not have sex, Olivia. What do you take me for?”
“Oh.” She looked disappointed. “You know, there’s nothing wrong with sex.”
“Seeing as Chet and I aren’t even dating, it would’ve been kind of messed up. I barely know him and he barely knows me, and just two days ago, I literally hated him for costing me my job.”
“True,” Olivia said, nodding. “He has been a bit of a jerk.”
“Yeah. You can say that again.” I paused. “But…”
“Yeah?” she looked back at me inquisitively.
“We did kind of kiss.”
“You kissed?” she screamed.
“Olivia!” I glared at her.
“Oh my gosh. I’m so sorry.” She placed her hand over her mouth, half laughing.
“It was just a kiss,” I said quickly.
“It’s never just a kiss with the Hamilton boys.” She shook her head. “Oh my gosh. I want all the details. There have to be a lot more details, right?”
“No, there aren’t that many more details. Trust me.” I paused as I looked around the kitchen. “Where did all these apple pies come from? Did you guys bake today? Is there a bake sale going on or something?”
“Oh my gosh.” Olivia’s eyes widen and she started giggling again. “You will not believe what Amelia did.”
“She baked a bunch of pies?” I asked.
Olivia shook her head.
“Okay, so what did she do?”
Just then, Amelia herself walked into the kitchen.
“Good evening, Arya,” she said with a gentle smile. “How was your day?”
“It was really good, thank you. The creek was amazing, and the log cabin was even more amazing. I think that the eco-resort is going to be gorgeous. People will flock here. I know the girls will do an awesome job with the interior decorations. Once you get the marketing going, people will pay loads of money to stay here.”
“Well, thank you,” Amelia said with a smile. “I’m so happy to hear that you think that it will do well.”
“I think it will do amazing, and it will be so much fun. I should go and have a shower. I’m feeling a little bit dirty from the day.”
“I’m sure you do.” Olivia gave me a knowing look.
