My phone buzzes against my leg. Almardon again.
Almardon
How’s it going
Good
Almardon
That’s it? Just good?
What do you want me to say
Almardon
I want you to tell me you’re not falling for someone who’s going to break your heart
Too late
Almardon
Rodriguez
I know. I know it’s stupid. But I can’t help it.
Almardon
Is she falling for you too?
I glance down at Juliette, still sleeping against my shoulder. Her hand is still holding mine.
Yeah. I think she is.
Almardon
And?
And she’s terrified about it.
Almardon
Great. So you’re both disasters.
Pretty much
Almardon
What are you going to do?
Wait. Like I said I would.
Almardon
You’re really going to wait for her to figure her shit out
Yes
Almardon
