Little Surprises
The days and the nights were all busy, filled with new things to do and people to see. She had gone to Nick and Caro's wedding, managing not to bust a gut laughing when Carolina's eyebrows shot up. That had earned Ryan a trip into the Queen Bee's office and a round of twenty fucking questions.
It also amused the fuck out of her that for all his lurking around, now and then, Frankie hadn't said shit to her. Of course, it was winter, and it had been FUCKING cold out there. So the coat probably hid the beginning signs. Her usually too thin body was rounding out softly, and her belly was more obvious because she was so tiny and thin, still, even after all of this time.
Ryan thought about calling Lexi. She thought about calling Mike. Very, very late at night, she would think about calling Frankie. But she didn't. Lexi hated babies, Mike had his own to deal with and Frankie? Well...she didn't want to risk losing that scattered glimpse of him.
So she didn't say shit. She just kept running her club and recording her own music.
Life...it goes on and on, baby.
