Emily was energetic and very upbeat. It was a change from Ayden's normal friends. Sasha hadn't come out much since that day with Bas. Ayden wasn't even sure she'd seen Bas again after that night, they never talked about it. It didn't matter to her, not really. Sasha was a big girl.
It was good to get out of the house, to do something other than work. Dancing sounded fun, and she wasn't some lame house wife. Though she hadn't really gotten her life together any more since Connor proposed.
Ayden told Emily how Connor was doing, there wasn't much to tell not really. He was good, his job was good, they were good. Ayden didn't mention the strain that hung over their heads, the constant wondering if someone was going to come after them. Emily didn't need to know. If Connor had met her, he'd probably warn her, but really Emily didn't need to know what hunted them.
Tonight was about forgetting all that and having fun. The air was cold, but it was clear, the stars were out and it was a good day to walk. "The club isn't far."
They chatted as they walked. It wasn't important, but Ayden was never quite so at ease, she was always looking always watching, a life of crime did that to a person. She held no delusions, she was a criminal, she took money to kill people. She missed it to a degree, but it was good to be with Connor and good to have a real home, even if she felt useless now. It was still good.
