“I didn’t see anything, I didn’t hear anything, and I don’t know anything,” Colt says by way of greeting.
“Appreciate that, Jade says she’ll be in after she deals with Jace tracking her, but I’ll give you the low down. She’s pretty sure the transmission is toast, if you can take a look all the same.” I take his offered hand, we shake, pulling each other in for a quick hug, and a slap on the back.
“You got it.” I’m in and out of the office in a couple of minutes. Jade is still standing in front of Jace, hands on her hips, and talking a mile a minute. I take the time to get her car off the flatbed, and when they’re still going at it when I’m finished, I make my way over to them.
“Hey, giving you the keys to the yard. Pick a set of wheels till your figure out what’s going on with yours. Colt is waiting on Jade.”
“Jade is right here and thank you, Locke, for everything.” Jace musta really ticked her off.
“I’ll give you a ride to the yard, Jade,” Jace says like it’s set in stone.
“I’m not getting on that death trap. I’ll see if Locke can take me.” Fuck, she’s gonna piss him clear the hell off. Which is only fair, seeing as he’s doing the same to her.
“No, he won’t.” Jace gives me a chin nod as if to say, no offense. Except if he only fucking knew.
“Fine, I’ll call mom.” This is where Jade’s tenacious side comes out to play. Their mom is a single mom, she never did find a man to settle down with after her ex took off, leaving Jace to take being the man of the house to heart.
“Fine.” He hands the keys to Jade, “Thanks for taking care of her. You didn’t have to if she’d have picked up the phone.”
“Looks like you did that for me.” Jade pulls out her phone and walks away as she starts to make a call. I thank god I had the forethought to slide on a pair of mirrored sunglasses, or my best friend would see me staring at his sister’s ass, and then hell really would break loose.
“Fuck,” Jace says. I laugh at his annoyance, we talk for another minute or so until I get another call dispatched, and then I’m leaving. Unfortunately, this time without Jade by my side.
