“Here, babe. I’ll get you another.” She reached for my empty glass and got up. When she returned, she offered me a nearly overflowing glass.
“Trying to get me drunk?” I smiled, thankful for the calming effect of the wine. This was the best I’d felt since I got the phone call from my mom about Java.
“Oh yeah.” She waggled her brows and laughed.
“So, have you met a guy you like?”
“Well, McGregor and I . . .”
I spit my wine out.
Like, I literally sprayed Kate with wine from my mouth!
She wiped red liquid off her face, and my cheeks blossomed red. My body was burning, hot and embarrassed.
“You okay, girl?”
I cleared my throat and tried not to lose my cool. “Yeah, I’m okay. Uh, you were saying?”
She eyed me suspiciously and smiled. “Well, last weekend we hooked up.”
Last weekend? But Adam—
“He is so damn sexy. I still can’t believe Adam and he are twins. He is nothing like his brother.”
“Sean? You hooked up with Sean?”
She nodded.
Overwhelming relief poured through me. I couldn’t believe I’d even allowed myself to think for one second that she’d been referring to Adam. But, then again, Adam and I hadn’t spoken since he left the barn Saturday night. Was it so crazy to think that, after I’d ordered him to leave, he’d run back to Ireland to forget me?
God, I hated myself for how I’d handled things at the barn. Or was it the wine making me feel so guilty?
Kate leaned forward as if she were about to spill a secret. “I still can’t believe we saw Adam fighting in that club.” She took a giant gulp of her wine.
Was she reading my mind?
“His body—wow. I mean, Sean is hot and gorgeous and totally ripped, but he’s, like, good-boy hot, and Adam is all kinds of bad boy, ya know?”
“Yeah,” I murmured, not sure how to handle the turn of our conversation.
“God, would I love to have both of them at once. Twins—can you imagine?”
I wasn’t the sort of person to talk to about that kind of thing.
Of course, the things Adam and I had done in the bedroom had not been prudish in the least. I gave myself a mental slap on the cheek. I wasn’t supposed to feel this way after what had happened last weekend. But it had been brutal these last four days without talking to him. So brutal, it felt I had ice in my blood.
“Too bad Adam has a girlfriend.” Kate fanned her face.
“Mm hm.” I stared into my wine glass in a daze.
“Anna?”
“Huh?” I dragged my gaze up to meet her brown eyes.
“You know I’m kidding, right? Not about the Sean part, but about Adam. I was kind of hoping you’d finally come out and admit you’re into him.”
“Into him? What?”
