Fisher
He just texted and called you his girlfriend.
Noah
Ugh. Probably out of habit.
Or is she clueless about my son still having feelings for her?
Fisher
I thought you said you two broke up a couple years ago?
Noah
We did. But neither of us has dated since then, so I think he does it without realizing it.
I pinch the bridge of my nose and wonder what in the Jerry Springer have I gotten myself into.
Fisher
Should I just tell him? Get all the awkwardness out now.
Noah
No! It was one time. No point in ruining your relationship over a one-night stand. Just act normal. He knows we’ve been introduced at the ranch, so we’ll just talk about work and normal stuff.
I scoff at “normal stuff.” Nothing about this isnormal.
Fisher
If you say so.
I go back to Jase’s message and type out my response.
Fisher
Sure. Where?
Jase
Lilian’s Steakhouse, it’s new.
Fisher
That works. The Hollis twins also invited me to the Twisted Bull that night. Wanna join us?
Jase
Wait. You’re going to the Twisted Bull?
Fisher
Yeah. Think I can’t keep up or what?
Jase
