~Excerpt~
“Mom
has given the stink eye to every guy that’s ever taken me out. She has to make
up for Dad not being here.”
A
surge of jealousy wormed its way into his mind. “How many guys have you been
out with?”
“Simmer
down, soldier.” She giggled and winked. “My love life is boring and consists of
one guy in high school and two guys in college. I wasn’t a nun, but it wasn’t
like I got around either. You have nothing to be all caveman about.”
“Sorry,
I was having a moment.” He really was. The thought of any other man touching
her, kissing her, putting hands anywhere on her body made his blood boil.
“No
worries, but would you mind terribly going and getting me a plate of bread and
cheese. I swear the buffet smells like something died and then came back to
life, but I’m starving and desperate.”
His
concerns returned full-force with her joking comment about smelly food.
Something was going on with her. It’d been nearly a week since he’d seen her
eat any meant and that was very out of character.
“Sit
here, baby. I’ll be right back.” He helped her into a chair at an empty table
and then went to the buffet table.
The
spread of food ranged from deliciously smelling barbeque, mashed potatoes,
corn, rolls, cole slaw, and trays of crackers, cheese, and fruit. Nothing
smelled out of the ordinary to him, but he grabbed an assortment of crackers
and cheese, along with a few pieces of fruit, just in case she might want some.
He
walked back to her and set the plate in front of her along with another glass
of water he’d snagged from a passing server.
“Thank
you.” She smiled and popped a cracker in her mouth.
“Anything
for you, baby. I’m sorry you aren’t feeling well.”
“I’ll
be fine. I promise. I’m already feeling better,” she answered and bit into a
slice of cheese. “This is really good.”
“Little
sis, you okay?” Karen said you weren’t feeling well.” Caiden’s voice over his
shoulder startled him. He was the only one of Lizzy’s brothers who could sneak
up on him.
“I’m
fine, Caiden. Don’t you dare go telling Trevor or Harvey. I got a little
overheated outside. I’m fine. Ethan is taking good care of me.”
Her
big brother snorted and Ethan bit back a grin. The MacLaughlin brothers all
liked him, but after walking into the dressing room this morning with Lizzy’s
sparkly lip-gloss smeared on his mouth, they were rescinding their approval
temporarily.
“I’ll
come back in a little while and check on you again.”
Ethan
turned in his chair and met Caiden’s hard glare. “I won’t leave her.”
“I
know.” Caiden sighed and nodded. He stepped toward his sister and gave her a
kiss on the cheek.
