Ari was feeling a great deal better - and calmer - after the short trip with Bella. A change of scenery was sometimes just what was needed. After a job successfully done, she had returned home, spent a few hours insensible in bed, then risen and dressed for her meeting with Drake. She really did feel bad about neglecting him lately; not that they kept each other apprised of schedules, but things had been particularly hectic, and she had missed having him around.
Drake was never complicated. It was one of the things she liked best about him - even if every other person in her life seemed to be undergoing personal crises, she could always rely on Drake to be his cheerfully easygoing self.
She was only five minutes late as she made her way through the door of the ice cream shop, but Drake was already there, of course, leaning against the counter. She waved, then rose on her toes to kiss his cheek when she reached him. "Sorry I'm late," she told him. "I was sleeping off a trip. I'm glad to see you."
