you doing?” she asked under her breath.
“Being friendly.”
India bit her lip. She knew that Elissa being friendly usually led to her going out on a date. Her friend didn’t sleep around, but she knew how to have a good time. And India had never heard any of Elissa’s dates complain, either.
“Damn, he’s even hotter in person,” Elissa said.
“Shh.” India shot a nervous glance toward the RV’s open doorway.
“What? It’s true. He’s got to know it. I’d venture a guess that even Skyler noticed, half-asleep as she is. Right, Skyler?”
“He’s not exactly ugly.”
“Oh, my God, I can’t believe you two.” India turned on her heel and headed away from them. She was tempted to get in her car and leave them behind. They could think about the wisdom of pushing her in a direction she didn’t want to go while they walked back to their cars downtown.
Instead of abandoning her friends, however, she retrieved the tape measure and notepad from the car. She eyed the ground for a rock to place on one end of the tape since her friends seemed to be more interested in drinking coffee and ogling the hot cowboy.
She gritted her teeth, more irritated with herself than Elissa and Skyler. If she had her sights set on a man she hadn’t yet met, why did she care if Elissa or even Skyler found Liam attractive?
“Looks like you could use a hand,” Liam said as he approached.
She gestured toward where her friends were sipping their mugs of fresh coffee. “That’s what I brought them for, but that didn’t turn out as planned.”
“Have I done something to offend you?”
India stopped searching for a rock and met Liam’s gaze. She shook her head and allowed the tension building in her shoulders to relax. “No, I’m sorry. I guess Skyler isn’t the only one grumpy this morning.” She pulled out the end of the measuring tape and extended it to Liam. “I think I’m just letting my to-do list get the better of me.”
Liam took the end of the tape and held it as she started walking backward, away from him and her friends. “Anything I can help with?”
“I think you already have your plate full, too.”
“You never know. I might be able to squeeze something else in.”
India glanced toward Liam, but despite the fact that he wasn’t yet wearing his hat she couldn’t read his expression. Was there some innuendo there, or was she just imagining it thanks to Elissa’s teasing?
“I’ll be fine, but thanks.”
“Okay, but the offer stands.”
She wondered how he’d respond if he knew that the kind of help she imagined him giving her had absolutely nothing to do with the rodeo.
