Vampire Beach: Legacy (20 page)

‘Love the Diesel,’ Sienna told Dani as she came in.

‘Thank you!’ Dani replied. ‘I was trying to get an opinion from my brother and it was hopeless.’

‘He’s fashion illiterate,’ Sienna agreed.

‘No more mocking of the guy,’ Jason ordered. ‘Where are you three off to?’

‘We’re going to Thai town,’ Maria told him. ‘Dani needs to see Kevin, the Thai Elvis, do his thing. And also, we need coconut rice.’

‘Have fun,’ Sienna called as they hurried out.

‘We will, don’t worry,’ Kristy called back. ‘We’re going to make sure Miss Dani has lots and lots and lots of fun.’

‘Why do I have the feeling that they’re trying to take Dani’s mind off something – like when the guys took me to Venice Beach after our sort of break-up?’ Jason asked as he closed the door behind them.

‘Because you’re right. I was talking to Belle before I came over, and she told me Dani broke up with Ryan,’ Sienna answered.

‘Weird that I have to figure out what’s going on with my sister through the best friend of my girlfriend,’ Jason told her.

‘Belle and Dani have gotten really close. She’s been like a big sister to Dani through the Ryan romance. It’s been good for Belle, having something to think about other than all the bad stuff. She’s starting to get over Dominic’s death, I think.’

‘It’s been good for Dani too. It’s not like she could talk to Kristy or my mom about the difficulties of dating a vampire!’ Jason pointed out. ‘Did Belle say anything else?’

‘Just that Ryan’s hurting right now,’ Sienna told him.

‘Dani too,’ Jason said.

‘She’ll recover. They both will,’ Sienna promised. ‘In fact, word on the grapevine is that there’s a very cute boy who is going head over heels for Dani. A
human
cute boy,’ Sienna added before Jason could ask.

Jason grinned. ‘Now that that’s settled,’ he said happily, ‘what should we do tonight? What are you in the mood for? Anything you want . . .’

‘Well, we never got to really dance to our song,’ Sienna answered. ‘How about we go back to the yacht and finish what we started? It’ll be even better under the stars.’

‘And that’s OK with your father?’ Jason asked doubtfully. ‘The place
is
a floating motel, so I hear.’

‘He trusts us,’ Sienna replied. She pulled a key ring out of her pocket. ‘He gave me the keys himself.’

‘So should I call Adam and Belle?’ Jason teased. ‘Since we’re trying to finish what we started. They were there the first time and all.’

Sienna gave an exaggerated frown. ‘Sadly, Belle and Adam are on their way to the Cinerama dome. Belle thinks the bar at the theater is the perfect place for Adam to meet some
simpatico
, movie-loving chicks.’

Jason grinned and opened the door for her.

‘Should we take my car or yours to the marina?’ Sienna asked.

‘Yours. Definitely,’ Jason answered.

‘You know the Spider is temperamental,’ Sienna warned. ‘We could end up breaking down.’

‘That’s what I’m hoping for,’ Jason confessed. ‘Nothing better than breaking down with you, and getting stuck somewhere.’ He leaned close and whispered in her ear. ‘All alone.’

Sienna gave him that slow, sexy smile of hers and grabbed his hand. ‘My car it is.’
