Fletcher’s fork froze halfway to his mouth. Then it dropped. “Can’t even eat in peace.” He grumbled as he wiped his mouth and then rounded up the girls, herding them inside as they jumped up and down excitedly, talking about the movie they were going to watch.
“You’ve seen it twenty times already.” Fletcher shook his head as they all disappeared.
“He loves it,” Oliva said, sipping her wine with a smile. That’s when her eyes landed on Harper’s wineglass, and she froze.
Harper stilled and looked at her glass.
“Told you,” Daniel mumbled.
Both women looked at one another.
Olivia glanced at Kristen, who seemed oblivious and let out a muffled “Whwat?” as her mouth was full.
“You...you...Oh my fucking God.” Olivia stumbled, dropping her wineglass to the table with a bang.
What the hell was going on?
Jacob glanced around and everyone seemed to be watching them, too.
Daniel sat back in his chair, almost resigned to the moment, and Jacob frowned, shooting Blake a questioning look.
He seemed as confused as everyone else.
“Did I miss something?” Leilani whispered, and he shrugged.
“No!” Addison gasped.
“Okay, what the hell is going on?” Jacob asked.
“Say it!” Olivia pointed at Harper, who was grinning like a crazy woman.
More than usual.
She reached and took Daniel’s hand and OMFG the man SMILED.
“What’s wrong with him?” Hunter asked, looking worried. “What are you doing?”
“It’s called smiling, dick.” Daniel grinned wider.
Okay, yeah, this was weird.
“What’s happening?” Leilani whispered again, grabbing his forearm.
Which he liked.
“I have no idea.” Bella said on the other side of her. The two, he’d noticed, were becoming more and more friendly each day.
“Oh my God,” Amelia gasped quietly, laying a hand on Jack's arm, mirroring what Leilani had done.
“You’re all freaking me out. Is there a national emergency I need to know about right now?” the senator asked.
“Yes!” Olivia asked, then caught herself. “No, Jack. Sorry. Clearly you would know before me.”
Jack glanced across the table at Jacob and frowned.
Sorry, buddy. Can’t help. I’m as confused as you.
Then Harper straightened in her chair and did a little bounce.
