Meow!

I jerk my lips from Cash’s to check on my kitty. I groan at the scene. Katy Purry brought me a present. The bloody, mangled kind.

Cash chuckles and my brain comes back online. What am I doing? I’m about to dry hump my ex in the living room in front of my cat.

I shove his chest but he doesn’t budge. “This was a mistake.”

“This was not a mistake. You and I together is never a mistake.”

“Really? Which is why you left me to become a rockstar?”

“I didn’t leave you to become a rockstar.”

I sniff. “Sure, you didn’t.”

“I didn’t.” He reaches forward to touch me but I slap his hands away.

“Out of my way. I need to deal with Katy Purry.”

He steps away and shivers. “Told you she’s a devil cat.”

“She’s not the devil,” I grumble as I march to the door and open it. Katy Purry picks up the dead mole, but I stop her. “You are not bringing dead animals into the house.”

“Devil cat.”

I ignore him. I have a feeling I’m going to be ignoring him a whole lot in the future. Because I can’t have sex with him. I can’t. If I do, my heart, which doesn’t understand reason whatsoever, will latch onto him without a second thought.

Falling in love with Cash again is a heartbreak ready to happen.

Trick – to force people to do what you want them to do in order to win a bet

Cash

Iprowl around my room. I want to invade Indigo’s bedroom and finish what we started before the crazy cat interrupted us. But I know she wouldn’t welcome my touch. She had a moment of weakness and I exploited it like the asshole I am.

Enough of this bullshit contemplation. I need to get the hell out of here.

I manage to escape the house without being attacked by the demon cat. I don’t know what Indigo sees in the thing. Those beady eyes? Whenever she looks at me, I swear she’s contemplating how many ways she can kill me.

Indigo probably rescued the cat because everyone else knew better than to adopt a demon and her soft heart wouldn’t let the little demon be put down.

I walk in the opposite direction of Main Street. Running into one small girl who claims I’m her uncle is enough for one day.

A man across the street waves at me. I wave back but freeze when I notice he’s not wearing any pants. And it’s freezing out.

I hurry to him. “Are you okay, sir?”

“Sir? Who you calling sir? Name’s Forest.”

“Hello, Forest. Are you okay?”

“Why wouldn’t I be okay?” He glances down at his dogs. Hold on. Those aren’t dogs. They’re squirrels. On leashes. Forest is definitely not okay.

“Do you know where you live?”

“Why wouldn’t I know where I live? Are you okay, son? Has playing rock music rotted your brain?”
