“You’re actually worried about him?” I try to clarify.
“Nah, this is Silas we’re talking about, not Fiasco,” Malcolm snorts. “He can handle himself as well as any of us. I guess I should say I’m not worried that he’s in trouble…I’m worried about what kind of ‘fun’ he’s having out on his own.”
“He’s an odd dude,” I agree. “I’d still trust him with my life. He’s always had our backs, no matter what. But some of the things he says, or the way he acts sometimes…”
“He’s kind of creepy,” Lucy chimes in.
“Amen to that,” Malcolm agrees as he raises his glass and drains the last of the whiskey.
“I could try and find them if you want me to,” she offers.
“Maybe. Let’s give him another week,” Malcolm tells her. “Best thing to do is just not think too much about Silas. He’s one of those guys that it’s best not to hear from sometimes. ‘No news is good news’ and all that, with him. The important thing is that Nash’s case has been dismissed, you’re actually smiling for the first time in years, and we’ve got a party going on downstairs. Let’s get back to it before the guests of honor think we’ve abandoned them.”
“Cheers!” Lucy smiles as she finishes off her bottle of beer, then grabs my hand and drags me towards the stairs. “I love you, Nash, but I have to say, meeting Jetta has also been a highlight of the last few weeks!”
“When I met you, I never would have thought you’d fit in so well to this fucked-up family,” I tell her as I follow her below decks. I wrap an arm around her as we head back into the party and pull her close to me. “I’ve never been so happy to be so wrong about someone in my life.”
