If you aren’t deep in a daydream about the hot bartender, then you have no good
excuse for not reacting to what I just said.”
I blink up across the table at my best friend, Jess, and realize I’ve been
essentially hypnotizing myself by stirring the olive in my martini around and
around and around.
“Shit, I’m sorry. I spaced out. Tell me again.”
“No.” She lifts her wineglass primly. “Now you must guess.”
“Guess what you have planned for your trip to Costa Rica?”
She nods, taking asip.
I stare flatly at her. She and her husband, the aforementioned River Peña, seem
to be connected constantly by a vibrating, sexy laser beam. The answer here is very
obvious. “Sex on every flat surface of the hotel room.”
“A given.”
“Running with wildcats?”
Jess stills with her glass partway to her lips. “It’s interesting that you would go
there as your second guess. No.”
“A tree house picnic?”
She is immediately repulsed. “Eating with spiders? Hard pass.”
“Surfing on the backs of turtles?”
“Deeply unethical.”
Guiltily, I wince over at her. Even my Jess-Fizzy banter well has run dry.
“Okay. I got nothing.”
She studies me for a beat before saying, “Sloths. We’re going to a sloth
sanctuary.”
I let out a gasp of jealousy and drum up some real energy to effuse over how
amazing this trip will be, but Jess just reaches across the bar table and rests her
hand over mine, quieting me. “Fizzy.”
I look down at my half-finished martini to avoid her concerned maternal gaze.
Jess’s Mom Face has a way of immediately making me feel the need to handwrite
an apology, no matter what I’ve just been caught doing.
“Jessica,” I mumble in response.
“What’s happening right now?”
“What do you mean?” I ask, knowing exactly what she means.
“The whole vibe.” She holds up her wineglass with her free hand. “I ordered
wine from Choda Vineyards and you didn’t make a joke about short, chubby
grapes.”
I grimace. I didn’t even catch it. “I admit that was a wasted opportunity.”
“The bartender has been staring at you since we got here and you haven’t
AirDropped him your contact info.”
I shrug. “He has lines shaved into his eyebrow.”
As these words leave my lips, our eyes meet in shock. Jess’s voice is a dramatic
whisper: “Are you actually being…?”
“Picky?” I finish in a gasp.
Her smile softens the worry lingering in her eyes. “There she is.” With one final
squeeze to my fingers, she releases my hand, leaning back. “Rough day?”
