CHAPTER SIX

PROGRESS. CHARLIE WAS finally making some progress with Miss Emma Elaine Everhart. Max had reported that she had no boyfriend, only a potential date to the wedding. Max had heard she hadn’t even asked the guy yet. Serena’s advice to step up and have an opinion had given Charlie the push he needed to set up another meeting. Emma had agreed, and his hope had been renewed.

Hiring Pete and his wife to cater the wedding reception was a brilliant idea. He didn’t know why he hadn’t thought of it earlier. Of course, he needed to make sure the O’Reillys were going to be around on the Fourth of July or he was in trouble.

“I’ve got a job for you, O’Reilly,” Charlie announced, leaning against the counter in the station’s kitchen.

“Cooking for you guys isn’t enough?” Pete asked as he pulled a large frying pan out of one of the cabinets. The heavy skillet clanged when he set it on the stove top.

“Not here. It’s a catering gig in a couple months, on the Fourth of July actually. If you and your wife are available.”

Pete lit the burner before giving Charlie his full attention. “Yeah? You got a catering job for me and the missus?”

“My buddy’s getting married and there’s a small reception afterward. Only forty to fifty people. You think you could handle something like that?”
