MARCH
“Which lucky man will be the one to help Avery get over another jackass?”
My best friend Wren craned her neck, searching the crowded bar. She
paused to inspect each male in the room, studying them with eyes so dark
they were almost black. She assessed them, one by one, like she was at
work at Boston’s most prestigious auction house, and they were pieces of
art she’d been tasked with appraising.
“Please, let’s make this more awkward.” I took a sip of my beer and
studied the surface of the round high-top table, where two wineglasses and
one brown bottle sat between us. Wren and Jana were Chardonnay girls, but
I’d take a Bud Light over wine any day. Luckily, they didn’t hold it against
me any more than they did my lack of interest in makeup or nail polish.
“No blonds,” Jana chirped, encouraging Wren’s endeavor instead of
helping me stop the madness. “I veto all the blonds.”
Because Joe the jerk was a blond. I picked at the corner of the blue label
and forced the anger that had started to simmer inside me to cool. Not even
a month ago, I found out my boyfriend was an utter ass. At first, I was sad,
sure, but now I kept circling back to pissed off. At myself, at him, at my
dad’s career choice. All of it.
This afternoon, my best friends decided it was time I moved on, so
they’d dragged me to this bar to enact their half-cocked plan. I wasn’t on
board. Although Wren and Jana were my people, they were insane. In the
best ways most of the time, but other times, they were just crazy.
I tended to attract that. Big personalities liked the calm that was my
typical mood. I’d known Wren since she moved to Boston in middle school,
which meant I’d spent most of our high school years keeping us out of the
trouble she found.
I met Jana on my first day at the Boston Zoo. She was in the advertising
and marketing department. She loved coming up with the next amazing
idea, but sometimes she forgot her ideas depended on the animals’
cooperation. Which usually led her to begging for my help. Within weeks of
meeting her, she became the marshmallow fluff to the peanut butter and
jelly sandwich Wren and I had long ago become. In reality, they were
probably the jelly, the fluff, and the peanut butter. I was the boring white
bread.
“Redheads are out.” Wren sipped her wine, still scanning for a nonblond, non-ginger that she deemed worthy.
“But gingers are freaky. Why are we banning them?” Jana brushed a
hand through her strawberry-blond curls, pushing them off her face. Peering
over her shoulder, she pointed a long pink nail at an auburn-haired guy with
a ponytail at a high-top two tables over. “I like that guy for her.”
I slunk back in my seat, hoping he didn’t notice her pointing right at
him.
