“Jett?”
He ignored her as he stalked toward the other man.
“You didn’t tell me you knew her,” he accused, and Wes held his hands up innocently.
“I didn’t know you knew her,” he said, shaking his head.
“Jett?” she said again, trying to make her voice louder.
“Why is she here to see you?” he demanded, then whirled on her. “Why are you here to see him?”
“I—I?—”
“My boots.”
“What?” Jett’s head snapped back toward him. Jeez, the big guy would give himself whiplash if he kept doing that. “Your boots?”
“Wes texted me and asked if I’d bring them to him,” Abbie explained. Jett slowly looked at her.
“He texted you?” He glared back at Wes. “You have her number?”
“Ah, yeah, man. She’s my friend.”
“How often do you text?” he asked, pointing the question at her.
“Rarely. Just when he needs something. Or I need something. Or…” She trailed off, not sure why he looked so mad. “He just needed his boots, that’s all. And when I got his text, I?—”
“When?”
“What?” She blinked, confused.
“When did he text you?”
Oh, no.
She knew where this was going.
Her hands drifted behind her as she backed toward the door.
“Well, I really should get going,” she said, smiling brightly. “See you later, Jetty. I’ll, um, I’ll call you after work. You wanna come over tonight? You know what, why don’t you just text me.” She whirled toward the door, ready to race out.
“Freeze!” he shouted, his voice echoing in the small room, and she froze, turning back toward him. “You,” he pointed at Wes, “out. No one comes in here. Not until we’re done talking.”
She gulped.
He was not happy.
Uh-oh.
“Maybe you should take it easy?—”
“Get. Out,” Jett ground out.
“Abbie-Girl?” Wes glanced worriedly at her. “You know Jett?”
“He’s, um…he’s kind of my boyfriend.” She winced as Wes gaped at her, then at Jett.
“You didn’t tell me you were dating anyone,” Wes said to him.
