Page 56 of Christmas in Vines

“Willow,” Mia smiled. “So pleased to meet you.”

“Same here,” Willow replied, shifting to look at me and them back to Mia. “So, did you know what Cole here had been up to these last couple of weeks?”

“No,” Mia replied, her gaze shifting. “He just dropped off the map for a while and then he told us he might have fallen in love with the last person he had expected.”

Tilting her head to me with a smug smile, Mia replied, “How much time have you got?”

I groaned. “Jesus.”

“No, baby,” Willow kissed my cheek. “Just me, but you might need him later. Mia, may I call you Mia?”

“Sure.” Mia grinned and leaned in. “Spill.”

“Well, for one, he cannot skate to save his life—” Willow started.

“Nope, we’re not doing this,” I shook my head, sliding out of the booth, suddenly stark cold sober. “C’mon, Willow. We have other places to be.”

She looked up. “We do?”

“Yes,” I leaned in and whispered. “My bed.”

Willow turned to Mia. “Raincheck?”

Laughing, Mia nodded, “See you soon.”

I hustled Willow to the curb, hailed a taxi, and then turned to her, “You forgive me?”

She wrapped her arms around my middle and smiled up at me. “Yes, but I need a little convincing.”

I grinned. “Now, I have to ask, how much time have you got?”
