He threw Arden a tight smile, hoping she'd get the hint and play along.
"Yes, because I'm dating Arden here. We've been waiting to finally
make it official in town." He gave Arden's shoulder an extra squeeze
when her mouth dropped open. "Didn't want to tell people too soon.
You know, in case it didn't work out. But I think we can finally come
clean, don't you agree, honey?"

Arden slowly blinked her ocean-blue eyes up at him as if coming out
of a yearlong coma. "Uh, right…babycakes."

Babycakes? Seriously? That's the first nickname she could think of?
Wade's smile was frozen in place as he turned back to Judy. "See?"
Judy pushed her dark-framed glasses up her nose, then laid a hand
on her heart. "Oh my. This is such wonderful news! Better than I'd
hoped. I knew something was going on between you two."

"You did?" they both asked. He and Arden regarded each other. She
seemed as confused as he felt.

Judy nodded. "Yep. I'm an expert on true love. Been married sixty
years next month," she said proudly.

"That must be why you're so good at matchmaking," he lied. "Sorry to
take your work out from under you like this."

She blushed and waved his comment away. "You're too sweet. But the
girls and I just wanted to see you happy for a change now that Kinsley
was settled."

was settled."
Happy for a change? Was he really that miserable looking?
Arden cleared her throat, nudging him in the side with her knuckle.
Ow. The woman had steel for bones.

"Babycakes," Arden said between her teeth, slyly poking him again,
"I really need to buy my coffee and get going. I have an appointment
this afternoon to prepare for."
"I really need to buy my coffee and get going. I have an appointment
this afternoon to prepare for."
"Oh right. I forgot. Well, you know your money's no good when you're
with me, honey," he said, winking at Judy. "Order what you like.
I've got it."
with me, honey," he said, winking at Judy. "Order what you like.
I've got it."
Arden smiled up at him sweetly before ordering. "Two regular
macchiatos—no, make that grande macchiatos, a bag of regular
ground coffee, and four gingerbread muffins. Oh, and you might as
well throw in a couple of those ham paninis. It's almost lunch time
after all."

Wade narrowed his eyes. "Two coffees, a bag of coffee, four muffins,
and a couple of paninis, honey?"

"Yes, babycakes," she said with an innocent smile. "I've been so very
hungry lately. Gee, I hope I'm not eating for two." When she gingerly
pressed a hand on her belly, he choked.

"Uh, she's kidding," he told Judy, handing her the money. "That's what
I love about her." He gave Arden a sidelong glare. "She's so much fun
to be around."
I love about her." He gave Arden a sidelong glare. "She's so much fun

Fun as a rabid rottweiler.
Judy winked as she gave him back his change. "Trying to one-up Kinsley
with a baby, huh?"
with a baby, huh?"
He shook his head. "No. There's no baby."
"Yet," Arden chimed in.
Wade gritted his teeth. At that very moment he wasn't sure who he
was more annoyed with: his nosy personal matchmaker or his sassy,
fake, almost-pregnant girlfriend.

One of Judy's staff came over to the counter and handed Arden her
bag of food and take-out tray of coffees. "Thanks so much," Arden said.
She gave Wade a wide grin. "And thank you, baby lips."

It's babycakes. Couldn't she even keep the nickname straight? She was
a terrible fake girlfriend.

Judy chuckled. "You two are so cute together."
Wade harrumphed as he watched Arden sashay to a side table for
napkins. "See you later, Judy." He pointed a finger at her before
turning away. "Remember, no more matchmaking. Arden is very
jealous."

"Oh, of course." The older woman folded her hands and seemed
insulted. "I wouldn't think of it now."

Halleluiah. He was almost sure he heard angels singing, and hoped
what Judy said was true. No more matchmaking. No more women.
No more gifts. And if it were true, he needed to ensure pronto that
his newfound-fake girlfriend didn't blow his cover. He glanced around,
and when he saw Arden had left, rushed out the door to catch up
with her.
