Dinner Date Ch. 04

... way I was dealing with the stairs. He selected another apartment they used for meetings like this. After the pleasantries were finished and I introduced him to my new assistant we got down to business.

"Robert, How's your leg?"

"Feels like I've been shot but it'll heal. Got someplace I can prop my leg up at?" I asked.

Peter pointed towards the living room. "You want something to drink?"

"No thanks. It's too early and not sure how it will react with the pain meds." I offered back. I looked at Kelly questioning her and she just shook her head no.

Once we got seated, he started right in. "I can't begin to tell you just how screwed up this is."

"Save it. I don't care. I told you not only that it needed to be addressed quickly but I also told you how to fix it. You told me in no uncertain terms my way was never going to be an option. Here we are four months later, cleaning up an even bigger mess because you were too scared to do what needed to be done and I have a hole in my leg." "Well, I'm just glad you're not shy about telling me, 'I told you so.' Not only do we now need a new judge but we also need a new Sheriff."

"You also need to look at bringing the DA in on ethics charges at the very least. As far as the Sheriff goes, that one is easy. Talk to Chief Jacobs who was on point during the arrest.

"You can't be serious about Chief Jacob? For Sheriff? He's a..."

I cut him off before he could stick his foot any farther in his mouth. "Let me stop you right there. The next words out of your mouth had better not be related to any political affiliation. I don't care what party he's affiliated with. Are you thinking party first or Texas first? I'm telling right now; he was the right man for the job while I was there and he took orders just as well. But if you want someone just because of party affiliation let me remind you how Calhoun turned out."

"Why do you have to be such a pain in my ass, Robert."

"Better I be a pain in your ass than you dealing with this pain in my leg. By the way, you need to be on the knees right now kissing my new assistant, Kelly's feet since she's only the reason we're not having this conversation through a Ouija board over my casket."

Peter took another appraising look at Kelly after my last comment. "Yes, I heard about that knife throwing stunt she pulled." Turning to Kelly, he said, "I wish to thank you for your quick thinking and for saving that old man there even if he is a pain in my ass." Kelly smiled and nodded at him.

He turned back to me then, "Do we need to discuss anything else?"

"Yes, sir. First off, I need to inform you I'm going to ...
