Leather And Ledgers – Crystal Nichols

Other than dinner, most of our evenings were spent in companionable silence. Fiona had dived into the club books with a fervor. Her single-minded focus on the documents almost made me jealous, desperate for all of that attention. No longer even bothering to ask, I brought over some clothes and bathroom products to keep at her place.

Falling asleep every night with her in my arms, my obsession with Fiona had only grown deeper, morphing into plans for our future together. Plans that required research and knowledge, which called me back to the folder haunting me from the desk. It was Friday morning before work, and I was sitting in my office at the clubhouse.

Without a knock, my door swung open as Charlie let herself in, dropping into the chair across from my desk. “Oh, good, you’re here. Tonight is girls’ night, so you’re not allowed near Fee, not even to pick her up. Match is gonna follow her home, so don’t worry about that, but I don’t want you butting in on our night. I’ve been good all week and haven’t asked her anything about her brother.

I’ve earned this,” Charlie threatened. With a sigh, I couldn’t help but look at the drawer again. I leaned over and unlocked it, pulling the folder out and dropping it in front of her. “What’s that?” she asked, looking confused. “The file Keys put together on Fiona.

Remember, you asked him to run her background and track down her parents? I forgot to give it to you because her attack happened right after Keys gave it to me.” Charlie’s face paled as she looked at the folder in front of her. “Did you read it?” she asked, and I shook my head. “Honestly, I totally forgot about it until Keys came by to apologize for not running her deep enough to warn us about Atlas.”

“Me too. I forgot. What do we do? We have to read it, right? If we had, we might have known to look into her brother more. Did he say anything about their parents to you?”

I was not one for social activities—definitely not a bar hopper—but my boss had invited the entire team out for drinks to celebrate a new account. I felt obligated to go, and an hour in, I was very much questioning my decision. Murray’s Pub was a local joint. I had been there once or twice when we had lunch as a team, but it was my first time there at night.

Their food was greasy and filling. The bar took up most of the space with a couple of booths lining one side. The seats were covered in a pine green vinyl material that always felt both sticky and slippery at the same time. Faded pictures and autographs lined the walls behind the crowd of unfamiliar faces.

In the back, there was a pool table and a dart board. I was nursing the same beer I had ordered when we arrived, nodding along, trying to keep some semblance of a smile on my face even though I couldn’t really hear what anyone was saying and was becoming increasingly overwhelmed as the place filled with more people. Tyler, a fairly new employee from the sales team, stumbled over to me.

His face was flushed with the telltale signs of impending inebriation. Sweat beaded on his forehead, and there were dark spots spreading under his arms on his shirt. “Fiona! Can’t believe you’re here and drinking a beer! Crazy! Thought for sure you were a crazy cat lady.”

I sighed, all too familiar with the Tylers of the world “I’m allergic to cats,” I replied in an even tone.
