Playing Chase (Against The Wall) (17 page)
My smile grows and my eyes turn into doe eyes
: Like a little girl asking for candy. I just want to see all my old friends together again. The gang. Just like old times. Minus one.
“Okay. I’ll call the guys and we’ll meet up. I’m sure they’ll all want to come. It should be fun. Now go shopping with your mom
, and give her my love.”
He kisses me on the cheek and hurries out the door. As I unlock my car and settle into the driver’s seat, I glance down at my phone. Four missed calls and ten texts
, all from the girls. My ring tone suddenly goes to a Rascal Flats song and I know right away, it is Ella.
“Hi, Ells.”
“Where the hell have you been, Sav? We have plans to make, martinis to drink and boys to flirt with. I can’t believe you haven’t called me since you have been home.”
I roll my eyes and smile at my friend’s voice. “Sorry. I went to get lunch at Chuck’s
, ran into Tyler, and we ate together. Ells, I’m meeting my mom at Duffy’s and then having dinner with her and Georgia, so I have to go. Tomorrow night at seven, okay?”
She yelps in my ear, “Hell yeah, baby.”
Her shriek pierces my eardrum so bad, that I pull the phone away. “Geez, Ells. Relax. Let the girls know what time, and I’ll meet you at seven.”
She sighs. “Okay, Sav. I’m sorry, but I’m just so excited
, and now Maddy is better, and she can actually have a few drinks. And, oh, I’m just so excited! Girl’s night out, baby!”

“This really sweet story of long lost love recaptured grabbed my attention from the first page. I couldn't stop reading until I was finished. It gives such hope that some things like true love never die. I absolutely loved it!” – Kelli Kamryn, author of Monkey’s, Sex, and Other Birthday Surprises, and the Love and Balance series
