I let out a sigh. “No, just in my dream.”
“Listen Elaine, you’ve got great taste. You’ll kick yourself if you let Ashton slip away. Shoot, if I was 50 years younger, I’d be after him myself,” Chloe joked.
I cracked up. Chloe was such a riot.
“I’m not kidding! Better move fast before that widow snatches him up,” she
warned.
Since it was just me and Chloe at the table, I had to ask, “Mrs. Sutton, where’d Ashton go?”
“Out having drinks with a buddy.”
I sipped some chicken soup, savoring it. “Isn’t drinking bad if he’s driving?”
“Oh, he just helps out with the taxi sometimes. It’s not his regular thing,” Chloe explained. Then she gave me a look. “So are you really thinking about marriage?”
“No, that was just the dream,” I clarified. Chloe rolled her eyes at me again.
I didn’t see Ashton for the rest of the evening. But just as I was drifting off, I
heard him come in.
Chloe’s voice followed: “Make sure everything’s locked up. We’ve got a young lady staying with us now.”
“All locked. Get some sleep.” Ashton’s voice was deep and clear – especially nice to hear at night.
I smiled, then heard Chloe add, “Ashton, better hurry up. Elaine’s already dreaming about marrying you.”
I bolted upright in bed. I never said that!
Chloe was such a gossip, spreading stuff around like that.
