turned me down.”
    “We’re grown men. We can’t sleep in bunk beds.”
    “Do you share one bed?” Lily asked.
    Finn grabbed her hand and took her to the bedroom. He opened the door with a big flourish. “Ta-dah! See, nothing weird.”
    “Twin beds.” She put her hands in her pockets. “Interesting.”
    He closed the door again. “Sure. Tell me how you two hooked up again.”
    Max and Lily launched into their story while Finn tried to pay attention. It was weird that they only had twin beds. It hadn’t even occurred to him when they moved in more than five years ago, since he and Max had only ever been with two girls together before. If they found their mate, they would have to buy a new bed. The thought freaked him out. Was he thinking about mates and mating only because he’d shown Lily the bedroom, or because Lily was his mate? He needed to get Max alone to talk about it with him.
    He put all the food on the table while Max was pouring them all glasses of wine. They sat down at the table to eat with Lily sitting between them. He wished Max had told him Lily was coming and not Shane. He would have put decorations on the table or lit a few candles. It didn’t seem special enough for their second date. He didn’t know if it was date for sure but it sure felt like one. It had to be more than just new friends getting together.
    “How’s work been?” he asked Lily once everyone had a plate. “I bet you have a great boss to get two long vacations in one year.”
    “We never get off,” Max told her. “Until they get more workers, we’re basically always on call. I wish we got vacations like you.”
    “I don’t have a great boss.” Lily scowled. “He’s a total jerk. I’m actually working while I’m on vacation. Long story short, I have to fix a mistake he made by Monday or I’m fired.”
    “Whoa.” Finn put down his fork. “Are you kidding? Because that’s pretty awful.”
    She shook her head. “I’m not kidding. Don’t tell anyone else. I don’t want Addison to get worried, because it isn’t her fault. It wouldn’t matter if I was home or not. This guy seems like he just wants to fire me.”
    “I’m sorry,” Max told her. “I can’t believe that anyone would be that mean to you. I bet you’re a great worker.”
    “I am a great worker. I’m great at my job.” Lily stabbed a green bean viciously with her fork. “He’s a total creep too. He asked me out a few times when I started. He hasn’t done it recently but he’s always staring at me all creepily. Sometimes I wish I could just rub his stupid papers in his face and tell him to shove it.”
    “Why don’t you?” Finn wondered. “Stress is bad for your health. If your job makes you that miserable, you should just quit.”
    “I kind of need money. You know, to eat and keep a roof over my head.”
    “Can’t you get a new job?” Max asked. “I thought accounting jobs were easier to get in the States.”
    “I guess I could.” She sounded doubtful. “I don’t have a lot of experience. I may just have to, though. What I really want to do is forget about all of this while I’m on vacation. No more job talk.”
    Max changed the subject to everyone’s favorite drinks, and the dinner continued on smoothly.
    Finn couldn’t help but hope Lily did tell her boss to get lost. Hearing that some other guy asked her out pissed him off. There was no way Finn wanted her working anywhere near that guy. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Lily had to quit her job. He was going to have to try and convince her before she left the island.
    If she didn’t have a job back home, it would also make moving to the island easier for her. It was a shot in the dark and way too early to be thinking that way, he knew. But still, it couldn’t be meaningless that all her ties to home were being severed, and her best friend was becoming a permanent part of island life. Finn didn’t think it was all coincidence. It was fate, and he
