I glanced over at where August was talking to some of the stoned guys, who definitely didn’t realize he was a cop. “I’d love that. And he didn’t really ask me out, per se.”

“Watch this.” Megan waved Theo and Charlie over, ignoring my look for her to shut up. “We’re debating whether Johnny G just asked Reagan out or not. He very sexily said for her to call him if she was ever bored or lonely. I’m a married lesbian, but I think I can still tell when a man is asking a woman out.”

Theo lifted one eyebrow as he looked at me. “Sounds like he was asking for a hook-up.”

“Asshole.” Charlie scowled at the bus as it pulled away and then nodded to August, who’d just joined us. “Johnny G just propositioned Rea.”

Ignoring Megan’s quiet laughter, I raised my voice to be heard over the stupid amount of testosterone pumping out of them right then. “Johnny didn’t proposition me. He was just being nice. He knows I’m newly back in town, so it’s logical that I might find myself lonely. He was being a friend.”

“Just like high school.” August put his hands on his hips and looked after the bus. “Hipster mother—”

“Okay! This was fun! You guys made the tour for everyone.” I grinned broadly, doing my best to change the subject. “Thank you. I had fun.”

Charlie still looked annoyed, but he was the first to move on. “Want to hang out tonight? We’re drinking with my cat.”

Megan snorted. “I beat you to the punch, kids.”

I nodded and hooked my elbow through hers. “I’m going out with Megan and I’m meeting her wife tonight. Finally.”

“It’s been like two minutes.” Megan rolled her eyes and pushed me away. “Get a grip, woman.”

I took her elbow again and motioned to Megan’s much larger car. “Megan will give you a ride back to Landings. Since it was her tour that kidnapped you, by the way. I’ve got a stop to make before I meet Kara for the first time.”

It was clear the guys were frustrated, but I didn’t wait around to hear them out. The less time I spent alone with them, the better. I practically ran out of there, desperate to get away.

If only I’d kept that same mindset later that night.
