33 A TIME FOR DISSES

ARIEL’S POV

I stood outside the hospital alongside Jack, and we were both waiting for Luke. I didn’t even know where the idiot ran off to; the clothes I bought for Andre were in his car.

I stood still, trying to see if Luke was going to walk to us. But no, he was still settling down in his car, and I forgot to mention that he had sunglasses on.

“Miss Clinton, I thought you were waiting for him,” Jack told me.

“Oh, shut up!” I threw him an unserious face before traipsing to Luke. I knocked on the door of his car, and then he took the window down.

“Can I please have my stuff?” I stretched my hands over to him.

Luke took his sunglasses off his eyes. “What stuff?”
