Owen combed his fingers roughly through his wet hair. He slicked the wet strands that clung to each other back in his characteristic style. Some product would have made it sit better but it was good enough. He hadn’t dried his back well enough and the t-shirt he had put on stuck to his shoulder blades where beads of water had been neglected.
He tore off a tiny piece of pancake and it was halfway to his mouth when Darcy asked a bombshell of a question. Owen hesitated, “Uhhh -” he popped the morsel into his mouth to buy himself some time. “It’s kind of serious?” He resisted the urge to cringe when he said this. It was half a joke. Half truth.
Things between the two of them were serious. But not in the way that Darcy would interpret it. Not quite a lie. Not quite the truth.
“Anyways, so did you see GE’s paltry earnings report this week?” He pointed his index finger at Darcy looking as if an ‘I told ya so’ were coming. “The stock fluctuations were crazy. Great days for some mad swing trades. Didn’t I tell you to watch it? Now they’re in total free fall.”
Owen changed topics from his romantic life to his expertise to avoid having to answer anymore questions about Julianna. He hoped Darcy would take the bait and talk shop instead of women.
