CHAPTER 26

During lunch, I tell Mintrude all that happened. " I mean I knew West wouldn't go to Merida on his own accord. He's better than that but I can't say the same for Merida. I still want to bitch slap her though."

I grin, I've been feeling a lot better West spoke to me and I can finally get rid of that insomnia.

" So you don't need a ride from me?" Asks Merida.

"Nope,I'm good."

" Don't become a stranger because of....." Mintrude sing-songs.

" I should be telling you that."

" Hi,babe." Peter makes a beeline for our table. Erimintrude immediately turns towards me pretending to be engrossed in a deep discussion, " So when did you say you were meeting West again?"

" Erimintrude,you've asked the same question three times now." Peter gets closer and I see that he is clutching a flower behind him. He's annoyingly sweet.

He presents it to Mindrude quite gallantly.( if I say so)

" The flower is not going to change the fact that you flirted with Annalise right in front of me."
