It’s not like I’m trying to form some kind of bond with her.
She’s carrying your kid.
My stomach drops the way it always does when I think about it.
That’s why I called.
Because I won’t be the asshole who leaves her high and dry. Right?
That’s gotta be the only reason I was compelled to do that.
Right?
Shit. Maybe this sleeping with her thing is an insanely stupid idea. But if she needs dick, I want to provide. Be the good guy.
Make sure she doesn’t find dick someplace else.
The thought makes my insides jolt.
No. I’m not the possessive, jealous type. Like I’d ever have a right to be that.
But fuck. The idea of some other guy between those sensational legs…
The thought of her moaning someone else’s name…
I grip my fork, stabbing it into the lettuce leaves like I’m trying to murder them.
“Dude.” Connor catches my attention. “What’s got you all pissed?”
“Nothing.” I steal a quick glance at Asher, who is looking all curious again, then hunch my shoulders with a scowl. I can feel his gaze on me as he slowly stands with his tray.
“I’ll catch you guys later. I’m heading to the library for a study session. Hey, Riley, you want to join, man? I can help you with that econ paper.”
“You da man, Bensen. Thank you!” The freshman practically trips over himself getting up from the table.
I stay put, ignoring Connor’s gaze as he tries to get a read on me.
In an attempt to distract him, I ask an inane question. “What class do you have next?”
“Anatomy.” He lifts his chin. “You?”
“I’ve got—” My words get cut off by the buzz of my phone. I pull it out of my back pocket and check the screen.
Lil Red: So, I need you again.
“I got… I gotta go.” Jumping up, I dump the last of my uneaten meal and stow the tray before practically sprinting out of the hall.
Connor shouts something to my back, but I don’t hear him.
For real, if he sat me down and threatened to torture me for information, I don’t think I could tell him what classes I have this afternoon.
I’m skipping the next one. I know that for sure.
Yes, it might bite me on the ass later, but there’s a certain redhead who needs me right now, and like hell I’m gonna leave her hanging.
Duty calls again.
I whoop as I jump off the last three stairs, scaring the crap out of a girl coming up toward me.
