Alex sat down on the yellow couch. “Absolutely.”
Lana dropped onto the blue beanbag chair and watched as little foam balls went flying out of the tired seams. “The guy actually thought he was meeting someone who placed a singles ad.”
Alex squinted. “Hmm?”
“My pastry chef, Annette, placed a singles ad and asked the guy to meet her at the coffee shop.”
Her friend’s eyes widened. “And he thought you were—”
“—looking for more than a roommate when I invited him up to see the apartment.”
“Oh, that’s hysterical.”
“Oh, yeah, I’m still laughing about it,” she said, rolling her eyes.
Alex tilted her head. “Wait a minute—why aren’t you laughing? Did this guy scare you more than you’re letting on?”
“Oh, no. He backed off as soon as I put up resistance.”
“What is it, then?”
She laid her head back, wishing she could put her finger on this elusive unease. “It’s nothing.”
Alex gasped. “I don’t believe it. You actually liked this guy, didn’t you.”
Lana lifted her head. “Are you insane?”
But her friend wore the most infuriatingly triumphant expression.
“That’s it! You dig this Greg Healey.” She clasped her hands together. “I’ll have Jack call him up and—”
“Oh, no, you won’t,” Lana warned, shaking her finger. “I do not like this guy. I just…don’t like the idea of him thinking I’m…loose.”
“But he doesn’t even know you.”
“He knows my name and where I work and where I live. God only knows how many people he could tell.”
Alex arched an eyebrow. “You practically beat him up. I’d say the man has as much incentive to keep it quiet as you do.”
She frowned. “I guess you’re right.”
“Besides, if you’re so worried about it, why don’t you call him and set the record straight?” Alex suggested with a sly smile.
Lana frowned harder. “No, thanks.”
“Okay,” Alex said with a shrug. “If you change your mind—”
“I won’t.”
Alex relented with a nod, then gestured toward the ornament-laden evergreen. “I think it’s leaning. Shall I warn the people in the apartment beneath you?”
