The Devil Wore A Brown Suit novel Chapter 33

When they get to the front of the B & B there is a bright red bar, The Devils Café.

“Are you serious?” Tiff says.

“Everything in here is red. So when Sam opened the Frog Pen, he did everything green. He said this place inspired him. They have a drink here called wide open hell. Let’s get one.” Mayhem says.

 “Okay, but just one. I am not a drinker.” She says. 

“You work in a bar and you’re not a drinker. Okay, sounds about right.” Mayhem says.  “We need to walk around the streets and just make sure we don’t see anyone that might you know be looking for us.” He says.

She nods. “I guess we are a couple then tonight.” She smiles at him. Tiffany slams her drink and jumps up from the bar.

“You ready?” Mayhem drinks the rest of his drink and takes her by the hand. The two of them go out onto Rampart Street.  

“We should walk up to Frenchmen street,” Mayhem says. “You know to look around.” She smiles at him.

 “It’s okay to have a little fun. I won’t tell if you don’t,” he says. The two head toward Frenchmen. It was only a few blocks and there were plenty of bars to explore along the way. 

Sam pulls into the alley behind the B & B. Camilla is still sleeping in the back, cuddled up to both babies. Key is observing her every move.

“I am worried.” Key intones.

 “JJ is going to stay here with all of you while I go find Mrs. Bee,” Sam says. 

There was no need she was already on the way. As he exited the SUV, he could hear her fussing at Angie. Angie came running out in front of Mrs. Bee.

“Sam!” she yelled as she ran to him. She wrapped her arms around him. “I have missed you.” Mrs. Bee was coming as fast as she could, fussing all the way.

“I have rooms ready for all of you. I did not know exactly how the sleeping arrangements would be, so I guessed.” She says. 

She glances back in the SUV to see Camilla Dawn. Angie still holds a lot of resentment toward her. She always felt Sam was a great guy and what she did tore him apart. She tried to hide the way she felt with a smile.

“Angie, please don’t give her a hard time. She has been through a lot.” Sam says.

Angie smiles at him. “And I am sure none of it was her fault.”

 Mrs. Bee finally makes it to the conversation. “Angie, don’t do this today. You knew she was coming. And you know. You know what is on the line here. So let the past go.”

 Angie gave each of them a nod. “I will be nice, but I will eventually say my peace.” She says. “I put Key and Camilla Dawn in a room. I put JJ next to her and Sam you are in the room next to JJ. Mayhem and Angie are in rooms close to the Alley.” She hands Sam all the keys.
