Excerpt “Lucky Break” by
Aria Kane from One Lucky Night:
Andrea loosed a
short, nervous laugh. “Where exactly are you taking me, Derek?
“To the water
heater.”
“Down the long,
poorly-lit passageway during a dark and stormy night? Really?” She tried to
make the words light and joking, but Derek heard the apprehension in her voice.
“I’m having flashbacks to your little pranks when we were in high school.”
“I only pulled
crap like that to get your attention.” The words were out of his mouth before
he could stop them. He pretended not to notice when she missed a step. When her
feet shuffled on the dusty concrete floor, he reached back to take her hand,
then thought better of it. Clearing his throat, he said,
“It’s just past
this pile.”
They passed
haphazard stacks of extra furniture and equipment casting long shadows on the
brick walls. They only pulled this stuff out on crazy busy nights. It was a
real pain to move it past all the other things without knocking everything
over, but it was only needed during Saint Patrick’s Day and maybe one or two
other local Irish festivals throughout the year.
He stopped in
front of the heater and Andrea pulled up next to him. She crossed her arms
across her chest, drawing his gaze again for a second before he caught himself.
“I should get
hazard pay for this,” she said.
Derek shrugged
and met her sideways glare. “That’s between you and Eliza.”
“Well,” she
said, pushing her sleeves up her arm, “I’m going to need better light.”
She sauntered up
to him and put a finger in the middle of his chest. Her smirk set fire to the
air around them. “Can you do that, or do you need to call Eliza?”
