Well, I think it is, anyway.
Leilani’s always been a little tougher than me, but I thought even she’d want to find herself a partner one day. Someone she can share her life with.
We’ve talked about this before, dreamed into the future and painted visions of flying high in our chosen fields and meeting up for lunch dates, then attending parties and going away on island vacations with our hunky husbands.
With a heavy sigh, she walks to her bed, snatching her purse and lifting the strap over her shoulder. “I’m just gonna…” She points to the door.
“Where are you going?”
“I just need a walk.”
“Do you want me to come with?”
Shoving a beanie over her wet hair, she glances my way and gives me a sad smile. “No, I’m good. I think I’ll just go to the library.”
The door clicks shut behind her, and I stare at the wood, totally confused.
She didn’t even dry her hair. I’ve never seen her walk out the door totally makeup free with wet hair. She doesn’t do that.
I have no idea what is up with that girl at the moment. But the idea of having to try and find out feels like too much.
Yes, it probably makes me selfish, but I’m dealing with my own crap right now and I just… I want…
“Shit,” I mutter, marching for the door and grabbing my own beanie and jacket.
Maybe I need a walk too.
CHAPTER 14
CASEY
Tapping the controller with my thumbs, I try to navigate the next level of Devil’s Doorway, but I’m struggling to get into it. I kind of need Mick here spurring me on, but now that she’s moved out, she’s not around as much anymore.
Right now, Ethan’s over at her place. They’re probably getting it on. We all need to burn off steam after an intense weekend away. I mean, it was awesome, because we made the fucking playoffs! But both games were brutal, and we had to party hard afterward, right?
We got home at like three this morning, and I should be feeling way fucking better than I am. I should be riding high after the victory.
But I’m sitting here on the couch playing a video game when I should be celebrating balls deep in some wet pussy like Ethan is no doubt doing.
I couldn’t even do it at the bar last night. Girls were clinging to us the second we got off the bus, but none of them had red hair, and even though I got pretty hot and heavy with a leggy Latina, we didn’t go all the way. I don’t even know what stopped me.
Yes, you do.
I tell the voice in my head to fuck off. There’s no way I’m going to deny myself sex just because I’m going through this thing with Caroline.
It just stopped me doing it last night at the bar is all.
I’m tempted to go back to Offside right now and find myself some afternoon booty. I kind of need to prove that I haven’t lost my mojo.
I end the game and am just standing up to head out the door when it pops open.
“Hey. Anyone home?”
“’Sup, Ashman. I’m just heading out.” I grab my keys off the side table, ready to ask him if he wants to play wingman, when I jerk to a stop and blink at the person standing behind him.
“Look who I found walking down our street.” He grins at me.
“Uh… hi.” Caroline gives me an awkward wave. “He invited me. I hope you don’t mind. He wouldn’t stop asking. He’s kinda bossy.” She points her thumb at him and bulges her eyes at me.
