EXCERPT

“What is it you think I can do? Maybe he left you. Get over it. Move on.”

His words stung. “Are you kidding me? He didn’t just leave, JJ. My bedroom was tossed. A cop got shot in my foyer and the goons who did it were looking for me. I was next. I need to find him. I need to figure out why he’s on the run, who’s after him.”

“I didn’t go chasing after you when you left.”

“Oh come on. Look, I’m all for letting you blurt out all your anger later. Hell let’s just swing by my house and get my day planner so we can pencil it in!” I stood up and flailed my arms around. “Right now I need you to be a cop or a P.I. or whatever you are and not my ex. Because I can’t do this alone and I don’t think I can trust anyone else to help me.”

“What makes you think you can trust me?” He growled and stood up next to me.

“JJ.”

I softened my voice and his name came out as more of a question than a statement. As if it was me asking him how he could ask me that. Even after all these years and so many mistakes there were some things that would never change. Feeling safe with him had never been an issue. He all but fell back down onto the loveseat. I sat back down too and turned to look at the box next to him on the cushion. His cologne wafted up into the air. Still wearing Drakkar Noir. I looked at the small laugh lines that had formed beside his eyes. At his salt sprinkled hair. Maybe it wasn’t that JJ never changed, maybe I liked to think he hadn’t moved since I hugged him goodbye at Sky Harbor in the winter of 1991.
