it made thousands of wings start to flutter in her stomach. Buster, who had been flirting with her for months. It was embarrassing that she'd been so clueless, but he didn't seem to mind. Caroline realized that she didn't know much about him. She couldn't remember telling him anything personal about herself.
    They'd have a lot to talk about over dinner, though the idea of small talk made Caroline sigh. She hated the whole never knowing what to say thing, or she'd try to be funny and it would backfire and she'd just seem weird. Weird. Awkward. So she'd probably have one too many drinks to loosen up. Hopefully she wouldn't get too loose, though the idea of getting loose with Buster made warm spread through her.
    Maybe she should have a drink before he came; she really didn't want to screw this up. She wanted to have a nice dinner and see where the night took them. If it so happened to lead to a bed, or against a wall, then so be it. Caroline wasn't a reckless person, not in the least, but she was tired of always making the safe and smart choice. Maybe it was time that she followed her gut instead.
    It didn't take long to unpack everything. Caroline had never been much for clutter. She did have a lot of books, but those were in a storage unit, carefully packed away until she had her own place she knew she wouldn't be moving out of after a year when the lease was up. Lately she'd been thinking about trying to use her savings to purchase one of the newly renovated houses popping up around town. They were relatively cheap, and it would be nice to put money to something more productive than rent.
    She was in the middle of putting her jewelry away when her phone rang. “Hello?” Caroline answered even though she didn't recognize the incoming number.
    “Caroline, hey. It's Buster.”
    She didn't need him to identify himself. His voice was doing lovely things to her insides. “Hey,” she replied as casually as she could. “What's up?”
    “I feel like a real heel for doing this but I've got to cancel dinner tonight. Something came up.”
    “Oh.” Caroline felt the tingly feeling she'd been holding onto all afternoon fade away. “Okay. Thanks for letting me know before I got ready. That would have really sucked.”
    “I'm sorry. I really am. I can't really talk right now, but I'll call you tomorrow. We'll set something else up, alright?”
    “Sure,” Caroline replied. “Talk to you later.” The call ended without him saying another word. She tossed it to the bed. Maybe something really had come up, or maybe he'd just changed his mind. Either way, she was on her own for tonight and suddenly craving Italian.

    “This is some serious bullshit,” Rock grumbled. “We didn't do anything.”
    “That doesn't matter to Harris.” Buster looked over at the younger man. He understood his frustration but right now their hands were tied. They just had to wait it out.
    “She's not going to have anything to charge them with. Figure she's going to hold them as long as she can, though. Thought that you had plans for tonight, Buster?” Ace asked.
    “I canceled them when Harris showed up at the job site. Figured I was going to be tied up for a while.” He hadn't figured he wouldn't even be taken in. He'd been pissed to make the call. He'd been looking forward to it, especially to Caroline riding with him again. It was rare that he had a passenger, but the way she molded her body to his was a feeling he wanted to repeat. Her hands had been low on his stomach, her breasts against his back, and he'd sworn he heard her laugh over the roar of the engine.
    “You could take off now if you wanted. I think me and Rock can handle waiting for everyone else. No sense in three of us sitting around with our thumbs up our asses. I've got nowhere to be.”
    “Yeah,” Rock chimed in. “Because if we're talking about Caroline, she's fine. I can't blame you for wanting to tap that. She's got an ass that...” He trailed
