“So, we can eat at the bar. It’s just regular bar food, or we can go somewhere else to eat and then go to the bar for drinks?”
“It’s up to you. I don’t really mind.”
“Yeah, maybe we’ll just go to the bar for everything. I like bar food sometimes.”
“Yeah, me too.”
“Okay then, so I’m going to go to work and be ready for six.”
“Okay. Bye, Beau.” I gave him a little wave and then walked back to my bedroom. I saw that I had a missed call from Olivia, so I called her back quickly.
“Hey, Lucy,” she answered the phone after two rings. “Guess what? I booked my ticket!”
“No way, already?”
“Yeah. I figured why let you have all the fun?” She laughed. “I’m going to be coming in a couple of days.”
“Oh, awesome! Just text me your flight information, and I’ll give it to Amelia, and Ranger will come and pick you up at the airport.”
“Sounds good. I’m really excited. So how’s it going with you and Austin?”
“Well, I thought it was going kind of well, but who knows? He actually went to the log cabin.”
“What do you mean he went to the log cabin?”
“I mean he left and he went to the log cabin to live because he needed to think.”
“Think about what?”
“I don’t know. I didn’t even know he was going. He didn’t even tell me.”
“Oh, snap. And what did Beau say?”
“He didn’t really seem to say anything,” I sighed. “Olivia, I’m really not feeling it with Beau, you know? I just don’t feel like there’s any real interest there on either of our sides. Like we’re doing what we should be doing, but I don’t think we’re doing it because we’re trying to get to know each other, you know?”
“What do you mean?”
“I mean, he invited me to go to the bar tonight, and we’re going to go, but it doesn’t feel like a date, even though technically I suppose it is a date.”
“Why is he going along with it, then?”
“I think honestly he just really loves and respects his mom, and I think he’s trying to honor her by at least take me on some dates to show that he tried, even though I don’t really think he’s interested at all.”
“Oh man, do you think he’s gay?”
“No, I don’t think he’s gay. Why would you say that?”
“I mean, because he’s a really good-looking guy, and you’re quite beautiful. So if he’s not interested in you then—”
“Not every guy is interested in me. You know that.”
“Well, I know you say every guy isn’t interested in you, but pretty much every guy I’ve met that has met you has wanted to be with you.”
“Olivia, you’re far too kind, but that’s totally untrue. There are more guys that don’t want to be with me that do.”
“Maybe.” Olivia didn’t sound convinced.
“And anyway, what are you talking about? You’re absolutely gorgeous yourself. You have men fawning over you everywhere you go.”
